This week I am joined by Emily Foster, RD a nutritionist and registered dietitian focused on helping women create “gut calm” around menopause with her practice A Gutsy Menopause®.
She works with women to help them manage and overcome gut challenges related to hormonal changes such as acid reflux and heartburn, bloating, constipation, diarrhoea, IBS flare-ups and SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth).
Having dealt with her fair share of gut issues herself Emily takes a holistic approach with her clients and incorporates mindfulness, stress management and sometimes even Reiki into her work.
In our conversation we talk about:
gut symptoms (e.g. heartburn, constipation) you may be experiencing that are actually related to your hormones
deep dive into acid reflux and constipation and touch on IBS
why managing stress well is super important for keeping your gut calm, regardless of the issue!
why any nutritionist who claims they can balance your hormones with food is lying (sorry!)
Emily been featured as a nutrition expert in the media including the BBC One Show, The Mirror Online, Global News, CTV News and more.
