Empowering Menopause: A Holistic Well-Being Journey (Week 3)

According to a Mayo Clinic study published in May 2023, menopause costs American women an estimated $1.8 billion in lost working time per year. Hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, increased depression and anxiety, pain and many other symptoms affect work performance and reduce job satisfaction. And a 2022 article published in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health found that “around one-third of women reported moderate to severe difficulties coping at work because of menopausal symptoms.”
 
Empowering Menopause: A Holistic Well-being Journey is a comprehensive six-week series designed to empower participants with the knowledge, research-based tools and support they need to navigate challenges, discover resources and embrace the opportunities that menopause offers.

Each session will focus on a specific well-being area that can impact menopause and participants are encouraged to sign up for any (or all!) of the sessions.
 
In this session, Nutrition with registered dietician Vanessa Oliver, she'll discuss the body’s nutritional needs and what may be helpful dietarily during perimenopause and menopause. Plus, how food can help manage symptoms.

This session will be delivered via Zoom! This session is open to ALL UK faculty and staff members.

Note: If the date and time don't work for you, all registered participants will receive the recording, allowing for viewing at a later time.
