#136: Eat for Menopause: Symptom-Led Cooking with Karen Newby
This week on Menomorphosis, I’m joined once again by the wonderful Karen Newby — nutritionist, author, and the go-to guide for using food to support your body through menopause.
We’re diving into her brand-new book, The Natural Menopause Method Cookbook — a refreshing, symptom-led approach that takes the guesswork out of eating well during this life stage. Think less “follow this diet” and more “nourish yourself in ways that meet you exactly where you are.”
Karen shares her wisdom on food as medicine, how it can help manage menopause symptoms, and how we can make simple yet nourishing meals part of our everyday menopause care.
What you’ll learn:
- How to choose meals based on how you’re feeling (e.g., irritable, fatigued, or brain fogged)
- The powerful connection between food and menopause symptoms like anxiety, poor sleep, and midsection weight gain
- Why digestion matters just as much as the food you eat, and how to optimise it
- Simple, nourishing, and time-saving recipes that anyone can whip up – no culinary skills required!
- How cooking can become an act of self-love and nourishment, rather than just another task on your to-do list
If you’re looking for ways to improve menopause symptoms with food and add more easy to cook and nourishing meals to your life, this episode is packed with practical tips and inspiration.
