#6: Gut health, good fats and fuelling your future with Geraldine Georgeou
As we get older, our bodies change. Suddenly, we’re battling belly fat, our metabolism seems to have ground to a halt, and navigating nutrition feels like a minefield of conflicting advice. Do we cut carbs? Boost protein? What on earth is a microbiome and why should we care?
In this episode of The Midlife Shift, host Alex Brooks talks to accredited practicing dietitian Geraldine Georgeou for a sanity-saving guide to food and health after 50. Geraldine demystifies the science and cuts through the diet-culture noise to deliver practical, powerful advice on how to eat for lasting vitality. Discover why your gut is your second brain, how hormonal changes impact your body shape, and what you really need to look for in a blood test.
This is an essential guide to help you build a nutritional framework that supports your health as you age.
