Ep 44: Menopause Does NOT Mean Weight Gain with Alison Bladh

I was honored to speak with Alison Bladh about women’s health, particularly during menopause, to help demystify the associated affects on weight, brain and heart health, sleep, stress, and other symptoms to empower women to take control of their health.

Alison Bladh is a registered nutritional therapist and beauty therapist living in the wilds of Sweden after falling for the charms of a Viking man!

Alison worked in the health and wellness industry for over 30 years specializing in menopausal women’s health and currently runs an online clinic helping women worldwide manage the negative symptoms of menopause.

Her mission is to support her clients with individualized changes to diet, health, mindset and lifestyle so they can harness their hormones and get their confidence and sparkle back.

Alison supports busy, midlife women who are stressed, depressed, gained weight, and have lost their confidence…because all women, no matter what age, deserve to reclaim their health and feel great. Every woman has the right to feel and look amazing in midlife!

You'll learn all about:

• The spark that inspired Alison to help women get their sparkle back (her mission to help women during midlife/menopause)
• Menopause and its importance (especially regarding hormone reproduction)
• Why there is a stigma attached to menopause
• Why weight gain occurs during midlife/menopause and what can be done about it
• How someone can modify their lifestyle to manage the symptoms

• How to improve bone health
• How to improve hair and skin
• The importance of blood sugar and how to regulate
• How to improve brain and heart health
