Osteoporosis is painful condition affecting many worldwide. Women post menopause are particularly susceptible to osteoporosis as they lose the protective properties of oestrogen post menopause if not on HRT.
When I hit menopause I requested a DEXA Scan from my GP. Thankfully the results were very good as I was exercising actively and lifting weights at the time.
Last year I had a minor injury to my ankle and used the opportunity to have another DEXA scan this time privately as I was curious to know if I had maintained my bone density. There had been sparodic episodes with no exercise and certainly I was not lifting heavy weights as I used to neither was I on HRT at the time. Again thankfully my results were in good range. Phew!
What can you do to protect your bones?
Eat a health diet including quality protein, vegetable and fruits and nuts and seeds.
If you consume dairy eat quality dairy, good cheese, organic full fat milk, and grass fed butter.
Move your body and lift heavy weights.
Ensure your Vitamin D levels are optimal and if you supplement with vitamin D and especially calcium supplement with Vitamin K2 also to ensure the calcium goes into your bones!
If you need help to put these strategies in place to support your bone health get in touch with me for a call to discuss your options.

The day your menstruation stopped. Many women dread the approach of the menopause in fact it is the time leading up to this day that is the challenge. Having said that if you have not been able to manage your symptoms well leading up to menopause it is likely that they will continue post menopause!
Some women look at menopause as a time for a reset and some as the end!
The truth is no matter which group you belong to there is so much that can be done to keep you healthy and thriving before, during and after menopause.
What is your journey?
We can all get stressed, put on weight, lose it again, suffer with skin and hormonal issues. But only women will go through menopause.
Isn't is great to be unique!
Happy World Menopause Day!

Sometimes, my clients get stuck for breakfast ideas. This is especially so when some foods need to be eliminated. My go-to solution is to think outside the box 📦 🤔
Have you tried eggs with leftover rice? Not only is it a delicious alternative to regular breakfast cereal or toast, but it is delicious.

Did you know there are health benefits associated with cooked then cooled rice (in the fridge 8-12 hrs) ?
👉 Cooling the rice in the fridge creates resistant starch. Resistant starch is not broken down in the small intestine like regular starch.It passes into the colon where it is fermented by gut bacteria.
👉 Resistant starch has a lower glycemic index. This means it has less of an impact on your blood sugar levels.
👉 This is important if you have type 2 diabetes and need to manage your blood sugar levels.
👉 The resistant starch is fermented in the gut, producing short chain fatty acids. These acids:
💥 Support gut barrier
💥 Have anti-inflammatory properties
💥 Regulate insulin sensitivity and immune function.

Are you struggling with your digestion or blood sugar levels. Get in touch with me to discuss how I can support you. Link in my Bio ☝️

I jazzed up my scrambled eggs with peas 🫛 this morning to increase the protein content on my plate.
I like to start my day with protein rich foods as it suits me better.

High protein scrambled eggs;
1/4 red bell pepper - chopped
1 tbsp chopped red onion
1 small tomato 🍅 chopped
A crushed garlic if you like
A handful of frozen peas 🫛
2 eggs lightly beaten 🥚
S+P+ mild chilli powder
Olive 🫒 oil to cook with
Few sprigs of chopped fresh corriander

Sweat sweat onion, red pepper and peas for a couple minutes in olive oil, add onions, then s+p+chilli and pour over the eggs stir still cooked finishing with chopped corriander 🌿

Variation: Try with garlic, fresh minced ginger, and mild curry powder
Or tamari and mushrooms!

Starting your day with savoury food instead of sweet with protein is an excellent way to curb your cravings. I have a free guide to download. The link is in my Bio👆
