In S04 E11 of the JamJarGill Podcast, I continue my conversation with the wonderful Sarah Root, a certified nutritionist and health coach specializing in women's hormonal health and fertility. 🌿
We dive deeper into some essential yet often misunderstood topics around women's health—covering everything from egg quality versus quantity to managing hormone health through major life changes like perimenopause and menopause. Sarah also discusses the misconceptions around contraception, and shares why egg quality matters more than egg quantity when it comes to fertility. Plus, we explore the importance of getting your body in the healthiest place possible before life transitions to set yourself up for success.
Sarah's approach is refreshingly free from restrictive diet cultures, offering practical, bite-sized tips that are easy to implement for a healthier life. If you're curious about how nutrition, hormones, and stress management intersect, this episode will give you the tools to thrive naturally.
