Certain foods and substances can negatively impact bone health by inhibiting calcium absorption or promoting bone loss. Here are some examples:

🟥 Foods high in sodium and I’m not talking about the salt you add to your food.
🟥 Soda and other sugary drinks and this is not just due to their sugar content.
🟥 Alcohol especially when consumed daily.
🟥 Caffeine nowadays added to products you wouldn’t think of.
🟥 Refined carbohydrates that can cause inflammation.

In this week’s video, I explore these detrimental foods in detail, providing scientific references, examples, and methods to mitigate their effects.

Nowadays supplements are heavily marketed towards menopausal women, and they offer a wide array of promises.

Suffering from common symptoms of perimenopause and menopause such as hot flushes and sleep issues will have us often look into supplements as potential solutions.

But should we just trust a random brand that mixes multiple supplements and promises to solve all our problems?

In this week's video and post, I share evidence-based information about supplements that I personally take and often recommend to my clients based on their individual needs.

and : Should You Stop Drinking?

During your perimenopause years, you might have noticed that you are not processing alcohol the way you used to, and your tolerance has changed.

You might have considered giving up alcohol completely, but that would mean missing out on social engagements and might make work dinners awkward.

The way I approach this topic with my clients is by first building awareness and then finding the best strategy that will still help reduce menopause symptoms and keep a sharp mind.

The decrease in estrogen during perimenopause causes many changes in our bodies.

In our faces, those changes can show up as wrinkles and fine lines, thinning of the skin, and loss of facial volume. As a consequence, our skincare routine might require some modifications.

In researching what works best for my skin, I've been trying new techniques, one of which is face yoga.

After working with Sarika, a Japanese face yoga expert, I'm sharing my experience after 60 days of daily exercise.

Perimenopause is an important and often overlooked stage in women’s health.

It’s a period that can catch many off guard, and its symptoms are far more varied than you might think.

It's not just irregular periods or the occasional hot flash – perimenopause can manifest in ways that you might mistake for something else entirely.

In this week’s video, I talk about 25 of them!

Among the over 30 symptoms of perimenopause, weight gain, and urinary incontinence make the top 5, along with hot flashes and period changes.

An increase in cortisol levels during this stage of life is one of the main reasons we start accumulating belly fat.

A busy lifestyle in our 40s is the main cause of increased cortisol levels.

Can just 5 to 10 minutes a day of constructive rest drastically decrease our cortisol levels?

Urinary incontinence in our 40s is not a topic often talked about, as it comes with a feeling of embarrassment. Let’s rather talk about the pelvic floor.

Do you need to strengthen your pelvic floor? It turns out you should stretch your calves!

In this interview, Annette Cashell Movement gives us tons of quick and easy tips to improve many perimenopause symptoms.
