In this week’s bonus short episode, Dr Zhara Damji joins Helen to talk all things menopause – specifically: why do we put on weight during the menopause and what can we do about it? Dr Zahra explains the different stages of the menopause, what that means for your body, and how nutrition and strength-training exercise can be vital in keeping you at optimal health and weight as you go through this period of life. Dr Zahra Damji is Clinical Lead for Women’s Health and Menopause/HRT at Boots Online Doctor.
