Leanne Ward Nutrition

Leanne sits down with GP and women’s health specialist Dr. Christine Greenwood for an unfiltered conversation on perimenopause: the early symptoms most women and doctors miss, what is actually happening to your hormones and why it causes so much more than hot flushes, the truth about HRT and breast cancer risk, why so many perimenopausal women are being prescribed antidepressants instead of hormones, how to find a doctor who actually knows this space, and what body identical hormones can do that no supplement ever will. Essential listening for any woman in her late 30s, 40s or 50s.

Leanne Ward answers your top 10 nutrition questions in this practical solo Q&A: how much protein women actually need for fat loss, muscle, and healthy ageing (and why the Australian guidelines fall short for most women); whether skipping breakfast is quietly sabotaging your results; the truth about magnesium deficiency and whether a supplement can help; how to build muscle without obsessing over the scales; what to do after an osteopenia diagnosis; and the real difference between Greek and Greek-style yogurt. Clinical answers, no fluff, from one of Australia’s leading accredited dietitians.
