Plantbased, Not Perfect

In today's episode I sat down with our favorite nutritionist, Sarah Marlette, founder of Nourish Thrive Glow, about everything related to our periods, progesterone and pregnancy. Sarah explains progesterone, its importance, signs of it being low/high, and its relationship to cortisol and thyroid. Foods to eat for healthy hormones, lab testing and hormones, thyroid issues and tips for women over 30 looking to support metabolism, hormones and tone up. We chat about how our period is a vital sign of health, ovulation, tips to support perimenopause, the truth about women needing to lift heavier after 40 and best foods to support your cycle.

Sarah shares the foundations to look at to help women heal and work towards a healthy pregnancy - top nutrients, habits and food, and protein needs. We talk her personal favorite workouts and health tools that have helped her stay active and feel strong through her pregnancy as well as how to mentally prepare your body for change when pregnant, what a day in her life looks like now, coffee consumption and castor oil, plus much more.
