E40 - Men's health with Jonathan Prince MBE Blue Ribbon Foundation

Episode 40

Wednesday, November 30, 2022 • Duration 34:53

Men for perhaps various reasons are more reluctant to monitor their health, note changes and seek medical advice. Ignoring symptoms or signs can become serious.

Jonathan Prince MBE is Chairman of the Blue Ribbon Foundation, an organisation which raises awareness of, and encourages men to take positive action to safeguard their health & wellbeing. Jonathan delivers informative talks on various men’s health topics and body parts that we are too often embarrassed to speak about openly.

How do men in general do health?
Heart disease is one of the leading causes of death in UK men. Do you find that many people are unaware the free NHS health-check?
What are symptoms of prostate cancer?
What can we do for men’s mental health?

E39 - Putting the 'men' in menopause with Steve Foulger

Episode 39

Wednesday, September 21, 2022 • Duration 31:15

Menopause is a chapter of every woman’s life, and with 80% of women experiencing menopausal symptoms it can also mean that many partners, colleagues, friends also experience menopause indirectly. It can be a difficult time knowing when, how or what to do to support so I hope this is a helpful guide.

I’m joined by Steve Foulger (Director of HR Services & Organisational Design at Connor) – you may have heard my episode about menopause in the workplace with Steve for Connor Conversations podcast (link below if you haven’t) but this time we’re switching roles and Steve is guest and so I’d like to know his thoughts on menopause in the workplace and his experience of supporting women going through the menopause.

Do you know much about menopause?
Examples of where you’ve experienced complex menopause absence cases?
Advice on starting a menopause conversation
From a partner point of view, what would you advise?
Does male menopause exist?

Menopause awareness is building in terms of awareness of symptom management options and also how partners, friends and colleagues can support women through this chapter. If you follow me on social media you may have seen I spoke at the BMS annual conference in Apr. I spoke about nutrition and menopause, and as a menopause specialist (in addition to being a nutritionist) I’m passionate about supporting both women and the workplace to raise awareness.

If you’d like menopause awareness webinars for employees, manager training or menopause 1:1 consultations in your workplace reach out to me at hello@managingthechange.co.uk

E38 - A guide to fermented foods with Jo Webster

Episode 38

Friday, June 10, 2022 • Duration 47:35

Gut health and mental health. There’s so much conversation about improving gut health using probiotics, prebiotics and fermented foods, but it can be confusing.

Jo Webster medical herbalist, nutritionist, gut health and fermented food specialist is joining me in this episode to answer a few questions I'm often asked when delivering webinars to organisations as part of their health & wellbeing activities;

What is fermentation?
What to look out for when buying fermented foods?
How to make your own fermented food
Do you need to buy a fermenting kit?
What is your favourite ferment?

Jo completed a 4 year degree qualifying as a herbalist (with distinction), she has a post-graduate diploma in nutritional medicine from Surrey University (with distinction) and in the final stages of the MSc Nutritional Medicine. Jo is a full member of the College of Practitioners of Phytotherapy and the National Institute of Medical Herbalists. She used to be a lawyer and also has a degree in psychology.

Jo is devoted to helping people address their health issues using nutrition, medicinal herbs and a focus on gut health. An important aspect is encouraging people to take responsibility for their own health and providing them with the support, tools and information they need to do so..

In her own life, Jo strives to be the change she wants to see in the world, so she knows from first-hand experience how challenging changing entrenched behaviours can be. She walks the walk rather than just talking the talk. Jo is mother to 4 young people and has a love of reading, learning, asking questions, being outside, fermenting, herbing and laughing.

E33 - Nutrition facts with Dr Simon Steenson, British Nutrition Foundation

Episode 33

Thursday, February 17, 2022 • Duration 29:46

Nutrition & hydration week this year is 14-20 Mar. It’s one of the NHS health awareness days to highlight and educate on the importance of food and drink to maintain health and wellbeing.

I receive lots of great nutrition questions when delivering wellbeing webinars and as it will soon be N&H week I thought Dr Simon Steenson could help me answer a few of these popular questions. Simon is Nutrition Scientist at the British Nutrition Foundation, a charity that provides impartial, evidence-based information, resources and training on food and nutrition.

We discuss in this episode:

How much liquid should we drink per day and does tea/coffee count?
Does intermittent fasting appear to be a sensible way to maintain a healthy weight?
How important is 5-a-day, or should we be thinking about 30 per week challenge?
Do you think there are some nutrients which may become deficient in next few years – perhaps as a result of eliminating some food groups?

Bio

Simon graduated from the University of Nottingham with a BSc in Nutritional Biochemistry, after which he spent 18 months working as a researcher within the Medical Research Council’s Human Nutrition Research unit in Cambridge, investigating the effects of vitamin D status on bone health. Simon completed his PhD in Nutritional Sciences at the University of Surrey in September 2018, and his doctoral research focused on the impact of fructose sugar on cardiovascular disease risk, with a specific focus on its effects on fat metabolism in the small intestine. Simon joined the BNF in November 2018 as a Nutrition Scientist.
