It’s not just about protein… 🥚🍠🥑 Balanced Nutrition Matters in Perimenopause!

Yes, PROTEIN is super important in peri-menopause—think steady energy, fewer cravings, and muscle support.

But don’t forget her BESTIES: Complex carbs and Healthy fats.

When it comes to navigating peri-menopause, protein often gets the spotlight—and for good reason. It supports muscle mass, keeps you fuller for longer, and helps stabilize blood sugar. But focusing on only protein misses the full picture. What your body really needs during this transition is balance.

That means pairing protein with complex carbohydrates and healthy fats—at every meal when possible.

🍠 Complex carbs (like sweet potatoes, oats, lentils, and quinoa) fuel your brain, support energy levels, and keep your mood more stable.

🥑Healthy fats (think avocado, olive oil, nuts, and seeds) help regulate hormones, reduce inflammation, and make meals more satisfying.

🍗Protein (from eggs, beans, fish, or chicken) helps maintain lean muscle, supports metabolism, and reduces mid-afternoon crashes.

🤗Together, these nutrients create a plate that’s not only nourishing, but also keeps you grounded, energized, and less prone to the blood sugar roller coaster that can make peri-menopause symptoms worse.

❌ It's not about cutting carbs or eating perfectly—it’s about supporting your body with steady, balanced nutrition that feels good and works for your lifestyle.

🥘Balanced plates = balanced moods, better sleep, and more YOU.

✨ Nourishment, not restriction. That’s the vibe!
