S3 E5 MotherFood with Wild Nutrition Part 2

Welcome to this 2-part special episode dedicated to Her Nutrition, where I have the pleasure of talking to nutritionists behind UK's unique food-grown supplements brand, Wild Nutrition. Their supplements are ethically and sustainably sourced, and are 100% food-grown, i.e. an organic way of producing supplements without any addition of synthetic elements, solvents or bulking agents. In this episode featuring Lorna Driver-Davies, senior nutritional therapist with Wild Nutrition, we delve into the fascinating subject of menstrual health and our overall wellbeing as women. We discuss how hormones and our cycles are the foundation of our overall health, the source of our vitality and wellbeing, regardless of wether we want or can have children. We explore essential functions and systems of the body which are tightly intertwined with our monthly rhythms such as Mental health: mood, memory, sense of identity Immune system Thyroid health Digestive health Female microbiome Fertility Nervous system And we explore just how the menstrual cycle actually works, highlighting the importance of getting familiar with your menstrual blood, and celebrate the power of cycle tracking or the fertility awareness method. To learn more about these, I highly recommend Taking Charge of Your Fertility and The Fifth Vital Sign, both books have changed my experience of my body in the most profound ways!  If you would like to work with Lorna you can book a free consolation here and you can enjoy 20% off your first purchase with ALISSAMOTHERHOOD20 Join in the conversation with us over on Instagram @alissatimoshkina @wildnutritionltd and @lornadriverdavies To find out more about MotherFood cooking course visit my website https://www.alissatimoshkina.com/motherfood-cooking-course and you can buy me a coffee at https://www.buymeacoffee.com/AlissaTim
