As I approached my 50\u2019s I was feeling unhappy with my weight, energy and gut health.<\/strong> I would often experience IBS in response to certain foods, bloating, a huge dip in energy and general feelings of anxiety were increasing. My diet was red meat heavy and after having my bloods taken, I found out that my iron levels were way too high.<\/p>\n

I went on quite a journey from around 45 years, with the explicit goal of feeling emotionally and physically better in my 50’s.
\nAlthough I didn\u2019t know it at that time, I discovered that I was in the peri menopausal stage at 48. This is another reason to really focus on improving your gut health as it helps with some of the symptoms.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I discovered The Gut Health Doctor on Instagram, and this was quite an eye opener.<\/strong> I changed my diet, cutting out most of the red meat I had and eventually excluding it completely, which was right for me. I ate more fish and lots more plant based foods, following tasty recipes and ideas from the TGHD really helped and I love the \u2018plant points\u2019 that are tagged to each recipe. Buying products recommended by TGHD gave me assurance that I was getting the best support for my goals. As I ate more plant based foods my energy stopped dipping and as my body wasn\u2019t trying to digest heavy red meats and ultra processed carbs at night, I also slept better and the weight started to shift.<\/p>\n

Today at 53<\/strong> I feel healthier, happier and more empowered than ever.<\/strong> Education and awareness is key to starting to make the changes you need to get back to health.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
