Nutritionist Karen Newby has compiled 60 simple recipes to combat and minimise the most commonly reported symptoms of menopause. Packed with nutrition but bursting with flavour, these meals are ideal for time-poor menopausal women.
There is so much going on at menopause. Not only are there the physical and emotional changes but also the question of what am I going to eat? Thinking about what to cook every day can be, quite frankly, exhausting. Especially if we haven't slept well or are feeling overwhelmed or anxious. This cookbook helps to simplify this process, away from all the noise out there on what you should (or shouldn't) be eating at menopause.
This book is the modern perimenopausal and menopausal woman's go-to resource for understanding how food can be a positive and healing force to restore vitality. Nutritionist Karen Newby implements the knowledge shared in her first book with 60 simple and nutritious recipes to combat and minimise the symptoms of menopause.
Each chapter includes a 'menu' listing the recipes at the beginning, making the book easy to navigate, and for each symptom, Karen lists her 'hero ingredients' that will help to alleviate the most commonly reported symptoms of perimenopausal and menopausal women. Specifically designed for time-poor women who are also juggling careers, family and caring responsibilities the book is packed with delicious recipes including traybakes, on-the-go lunches and snacks and one-pot wonders to cut down on the time spent washing dishes.
