Rediscovering Joy in the Kitchen: Midlife Women & the Love of Cooking - #106

As midlife women transition through menopause and adverse physiological changes start to take over, they find less time and motivation to get in the kitchen and prepare healthy, balanced meals. Many midlife women feel stumped around what to eat, how to shop, and how to prepare nourishing meals during this phase of life. Prioritizing nutrition that will support heart and brain health, body composition goals, strength and power, hair growth, skin health, strong bones, and more is complicated and overwhelming.

Shefaly Ravula is a board-certified physician assistant whose primary focus is gastroenterology, metabolic health, and culinary medicine. She left the conventional healthcare model to learn and expand her expertise from a more holistic lens, helping her patients achieve better health outcomes. In this episode, we talk about harnessing a love of nourishing food, cooking, and preparing meals during midlife and beyond, even if you previously avoided your kitchen like the plague. For those of you wondering what the science is showing regarding menopausal gut health, how to optimize our body composition when dieting doesn’t work, and how to maintain a long-term, joyful nutrition journey for the next three to four decades of healthy living, this episode is for you.
