"Gut health” is a phrase that gets thrown around a lot these days. You even see it on products like soda, chips, and prepackaged snacks, claiming that they’re good for your gut health.

But what does it mean to have good gut health? How do you know if your gut is unhealthy?

And the BIG question, how does perimenopause impact your gut health?

In this episode, we dig into all of that, and more! Plus, you'll hear some slightly embarrassing (well, vulnerable!) personal stories about my own gut health journey, and how I’m managing things in perimenopause.

And once you've decided that you definitely need to eat right to support your gut health, grab the free Family Fork Dinner Guide here! Filled with anti-inflammatory dinners that are easy, delish, and family friendly!

You've heard that you should eat more protein in perimenopause, but what does that even mean?

In this episode of The Family Fork you'll learn exactly how much protein you need in midlife, what kind is best, and you'll even get a plan for how to meet your protein requirement everyday.

Protein helps you lose weight in perimenopause, reduces cravings by keeping you fuller for longer, and will help you actually enjoy this season of life.
