About this session
Perimenopause and menopause can coincide with changes in sleep, appetite, body composition, digestion, energy and cardiovascular or bone-health risk.
Nutrition cannot prevent every symptom or replace appropriate medical care, but regular, balanced eating can support health and make demanding working days easier to manage.
This session focuses on realistic food choices rather than rigid "menopause diets." Participants explore meal structure, protein, fiber, calcium, vitamin D, hydration and dietary fats while considering shift work, travel, limited breaks, workplace catering and changing appetite.
Participants leave with a practical plan they can adapt to their culture, budget, health needs and working pattern. The session also helps them assess supplement, detox and weight-loss claims more critically and recognize when individualized support may be appropriate.
