About this session

Women's nutritional needs are not fixed throughout life. Menstruation, pregnancy, breastfeeding, menopause, aging, health conditions, medication and changing activity levels can all affect nutritional priorities, appetite and the way food fits into daily routines.

A healthy eating pattern does not require one prescribed menu or a collection of products marketed specifically to women.

The exact composition of a balanced diet varies according to age, health, lifestyle, culture, available foods and individual needs, while the underlying principles of adequacy, variety and balance remain broadly consistent.

This session helps participants understand which nutritional considerations may become more important at different stages of life.

It combines meal planning, key nutrients, workday eating, supplement awareness and preparation for professional advice without promoting restrictive diets, weight stigma or unsupported hormone-balancing claims.
