  Balancing Hormones After 40: Why Nothing Works (and What To Do Instead)

  Apr 8, 202618 minS4

  <p>Louise Digby explains why many women over 40 see only temporary or inconsistent results from “hormone balancing” diets, supplements, seed cycling, adaptogens or even HRT, and why the missing piece is often the order of support. She outlines how fluctuating oestrogen and progesterone, reduced insulin sensitivity, lower stress tolerance and slower recovery can make the body more reactive, but argues that starting with hormones directly can backfire if the wider system is unstable. She describes a sequence: stabilise the nervous system so the body feels safe, improve gut health to support absorption and oestrogen metabolism, correct key nutrient gaps (e.g...

  Why Bloating Gets Worse in Perimenopause (and What It’s Really Telling You)

  Apr 1, 202617 minS4

  <p>Louise Digby, a metabolism nutritionist, explains that frequent bloating, especially in women in their late thirties, forties and beyond, is common but not normal and is a clear signal that something in the body isn’t working optimally. She outlines why it often worsens in perimenopause and menopause: declining progesterone can slow gut motility, fluctuating oestrogen can affect gut bacteria and fluid balance, and a more impactful stress response can reduce digestion by lowering enzymes, stomach acid and movement. Louise breaks bloating into three main mechanisms—fermentation from poor breakdown/absorption, slowed gut transit, and fluid retention/inflammation—and warns...

  Exercise Doesn't Burn Fat: Why More Isn't Always Better

  Mar 25, 202620 minS4

  <p>Louise Digby explains why exercise alone often doesn’t drive fat loss, especially for women in their late 30s, 40s and beyond, and why doing more workouts can backfire. She shares client examples where high-intensity training combined with under-fuelling led to stress, increased hunger, fatigue, inflammation, cravings, sleep disruption and sluggish thyroid function, and how reducing intensity, prioritising recovery, increasing calories and improving nourishment helped symptoms resolve and weight begin to shift. Louise outlines how the body compensates after workouts through reduced daily movement, increased appetite, improved efficiency and stress responses, and emphasises that fat loss happens when internal co...

  Same Steps, Different Outcomes: Tackling Menopausal Weight Gain

  Mar 18, 202621 minS4

  <p>Louise Digby explains why two women can eat and exercise similarly yet see completely different fat loss results, arguing that the difference is not discipline or effort but how each body responds internally. Using two client examples, she describes “invisible variables” that affect progress, including blood sugar responses, stress load, sleep, digestion and nutrient absorption, inflammation, hormonal signalling, and nutrient status. She also discusses genetics as a factor that interacts with environment, and how a history of dieting, stress and poor recovery can make the body more protective and resistant to weight loss. Louise encourages shifting from pushing harder to u...
