NutriFoods

Women's Health

A woman’s life involves many hormonal changes. Very often, clients wonder whether particular foods or supplements could improve their period pains or other symptoms of PMS or make the transition to menopause easier. Hormonal changes or imbalances may also bring about or exacerbate amenorrhea (no periods), dysmenorrhea (irregular periods) or heavy periods. Also, feelings of lethargy, anxiety or feeling ‘the blues’ could possibly be made worse by nutritional deficiencies brought about by prolonged dieting or improper digestion and absorption. Some clients may feel very healthy but have questions regarding nutrition for a healthy pregnancy or want to boost their chances of conceiving.

At NutriFoods, we focus on the nutritional management of hormonal imbalances. Hormonal profile tests at various stages of a woman’s life are a way of discovering imbalances and then, monitoring improvements. In line with holistic thinking, other aspects such as digestion and absorption of nutrients, liver and thyroid health, weight, food allergies and intolerances and stress levels may also need to be considered as such factors may impact on hormonal imbalances. At NutriFoods, we also attempt to give you the best possible dietary and supplement advice for your pregnancy to give your child the best start in life including, advice on how to minimise possible future allergies or intolerances. This is why, at NutriFoods, we spend a lot of time analysing the information you give us before we meet. Together with the information gathered during our consultation, we then come up with the most appropriate nutritional and supplement programme.
