Why does fibre matter so much in perimenopause? 🌿
As our hormones change, looking after our gut health becomes even more important.
Fibre can help support:
✨ Gut health and digestion
✨ More stable blood sugar levels
✨ Feeling fuller for longer
✨ Heart health and cholesterol
✨ Healthy weight management
✨ Regular bowel movements
Aim to include a variety of fibre-rich foods throughout your day:
🥦 Vegetables
🍓 Fruit
🫘 Beans & lentils
🌾 Oats and wholegrains
🥜 Nuts & seeds
Small changes can make a big difference. Start by adding a little more fibre to your meals and remember to drink plenty of water too!
Perimenopause nutrition isn’t about restriction. It’s about fuelling your body with the nutrients it needs to feel strong, energised and healthy. 💪

🚴♀️ STRENGTH TRAINING KEEPS ME A STRONG CYCLIST AT 45 💪
I’ve been cycling for 16 years and spinning for over 25 years — and strength training has become a huge part of keeping me strong on the bike.
It helps me:
💪 Build and maintain muscle
🦵 Improve power and strength
🔥 Support endurance and performance
🦴 Keep my bones strong
⚡ Stay strong for those tough climbs
🚴♀️ Keep doing what I love for years to come
Getting older doesn’t mean slowing down — it means training smarter.
Strength training isn’t just about looking strong.
It’s about being strong for the life and sport you love. ❤️
