Episode notes

Dieting at any point of your life can be difficult, but it is a particular challenge for women going through the menopause.

While dietician Nigel Denby admits that weight gain affects the majority of menopausal women, he tells The Menopod hosts Susan Lee and Dawn Collinson that he has "absolutely no doubt that any woman can get in control of this".

The award-winning dietician and author, who was awarded 'Dietician of the Year' in 2013, shares his tips on lifestyle changes, and explains the changes that women's bodies and hormones go through during the menopause.

Nigel also "gets on his soapbox" for the 50 per cent of the population that "deserve better" in both the health service and society.
