Perimenopause can make your gut feel like it has changed the locks overnight.

Foods that used to be easy can suddenly feel heavy. Fibre is still useful, but a huge fibre jump can be rough when digestion already feels slower, more reactive, or more unpredictable.

Build fibre gradually, not aggressively.

Add a little more fibre, drink enough water, and keep protein steady. Midlife muscle asks for more care, not less. So yes, bring in the beans, oats, berries, veg, seeds, and whole grains, but do not let the fibre trend push protein off your plate.

For women whose body stopped following the old rules: slow with the fibre, firm on the protein.

You do not need to overhaul your diet because fibre got trendy.

Most people could use more fibre, yes. But the boring, useful answer is still the one that works: vegetables, beans, lentils, wholegrains, fruit, nuts, seeds, and more variety across the week.

Powders and bars can be convenient sometimes, but they are not the foundation. Start with what you already have, then add one simple plant-based win.

Before you buy anything: could you just add one more plant to the meal you're already eating? ☺️

Fibre has become the latest nutrition trend, but its benefits are often oversold.

More fibre does not automatically lead to weight loss. Fibre’s direct impact on the energy you absorb is relatively small. What it does exceptionally well is support gut health, help manage blood sugar levels, lower cholesterol, and increase fullness after meals.

When people feel more satisfied, they may naturally eat in a way that supports their health goals. That is very different from fibre somehow "melting away" body fat.

Eat more fibre because your gut and heart want it. The scales are a side effect, not the point. ☺️

Session Two of our free webinar series, Stop the Food Noise, has moved from Monday 25 May to 𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝟏 𝐉𝐮𝐧𝐞 𝐚𝐭 𝟔𝐩𝐦 𝐀𝐖𝐒𝐓.

If food feels louder than it used to, the rules feel more confusing, or you’re tired of hearing “just eat less” when your midlife body is clearly asking for something more intelligent, this session is for you.

We’ll cover how to eat for your midlife body in a way that feels calmer, more structured, and more sustainable, so you can start feeling the difference over the next 30 days.
