<description>&lt;p&gt;Introducing Eat your way to better gynecological health | Dr. Jennifer Ashton &amp; Prof. Sarah Berry from ZOE Science &amp; Nutrition.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Follow the show: &lt;a href="https://link.chtbl.com/_9kgxnUo"&gt;ZOE Science &amp; Nutrition&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;A good gynecologist is like a detective. She gathers evidence to diagnose infections. She uncovers the truth behind stages like puberty, pregnancy and perimenopause. Yet many women still feel that their physiology is a mystery. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What if a clue to that mystery hides in our diet? Similar to the gut, certain foods make the vaginal microbiome thrive. New research suggests that the right diet could alleviate symptoms of the most common gynecological diseases. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dr Jennifer Ashton is former Chief Medical Correspondent at ABC News and is a double-board certified OBGYN. She joins us today to discuss ‘nutritional gynecology’, a term she coined after realizing multiple women’s health issues have a direct relationship to nutrition. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Alongside Jen is King’s College London professor and ZOE’s Chief Scientist Sarah Berry. Sarah shines light on the growing evidence of the role of nutrition in offsetting uncomfortable, and sometimes dangerous, symptoms of menopause. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;🥑 Make smarter food choices.
