Many women notice new digestive symptoms during peri-menopause and menopause, including acid reflux or heartburn, even if they’ve never struggled with it before. If you’ve found yourself dealing with burning in the chest, a sour taste in the mouth, coughing after meals or disrupted sleep due to reflux, you’re certainly not alone. While reflux is often blamed on food alone, hormonal changes during menopause can play a significant role in how your digestive system functions. Un

Feeling bloated can be incredibly uncomfortable. Many people describe it as a tight, swollen feeling in the abdomen that appears during the day, often after eating.

You might assume it’s just part of a busy day but often the real cause lies in what (and how) you’ve eaten earlier. As a nutritional therapist, I see this pattern all the time. Many clients start their mornings with good intentions, maybe a quick breakfast and a coffee but by 3 p.m they’re running on empty. The good news? You can reclai
