About this episode

Professor Sarah Berry has been conducting research at Kings College London for the last 25 years, and leading studies into how dietary components influence cardiovascular disease risk. She is also Chief Scientist at nutrition science company ZOE, and in 2024, they released their findings from a study that looked at the links between personalised nutrition plans and the severity of perimenopausal and menopausal symptoms. In this episode, Sarah breaks down their findings, highlighting key points that are of interest to all women at the midpoint, including; how when you eat is just as important as what you eat for women in this phase of life, how improving the diet of the study’s participants (increasing whole foods, decreasing ultra processed foods) led to a 35% reduction on average in their menopausal symptoms, and how taking a food based approach - thinking about the type of food that your fats or carbohydrates are delivered in - can have a profound effect on how healthy you feel.
