The Female Factor: Making women’s health count – and what it means for you (The Food Medic)

Product Information

In this webinar we are going to explore nutrition across the menstrual cycle, for preconception and pregnancy, and during the menopause. Women can also suffer from unique gynecological issues such as; premenstrual syndrome (PMS), endometriosis, and polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) - all which can be influenced by nutrition. The nutritional part was more interesting for me, as we I lay deal little with that during med school.

It was also interesting to have access to her balanced views on topics I don’t know much about, such as HRT. Whilst the parts of the book that were educational were very well written, easy to understand and I definitely took information on board, I was hoping for deeper knowledge and understand and it seemed a little surface level.
