Nutrition at menopause isn’t just about weight!

There’s a lot of talk about weight at menopause… often too much. This stage affects our body in many ways: hormones, muscle mass, bone density, fat distribution, sleep and mood. Nutrition can be a central pillar for managing this transition with energy and good health.

🥙 Adopting a Mediterranean-style diet rich in vegetables, fruits, beans, whole grains, nuts, and fatty fish helps support the heart, bones, muscle mass and metabolism.

Science confirms it! Eating a consistent and balanced diet, staying active, getting quality sleep, and, when needed, following medical guidance such as hormone therapy, remain the most effective ways to stay healthy as you get older.
