3 reasons why Cara Shaw recommends Purition
October is Menopause Awareness Month and this year, we've decided to ask the experts a few questions.
We've asked Cara Shaw, registered Women's Health Nutritional Therapist, how can our diet impact hormonal health and why she thinks Purition is a great place to start to balance your hormones! Here's what she had to say...
1. It’s a convenient way of balancing blood sugar first thing
Filled with real food sources of protein, healthy fats, and fibre; Purition is the perfect base for a breakfast.Whether you’re adding it to some gut-loving kefir, yoghurt or blitzing it in a smoothie, it’s a sure way to give your blood glucose the perfect start.
2. It’s packed with hormone-loving vitamins and minerals
Purition is naturally loaded with key nutrients to support hormones including Vitamin B6, Folate and Magnesium.These nutrients are essential for hormone detoxification and are key for the production of neurotransmitters that support mood and mental health.
3. It’s a perfect way to increase plant-based diversity and support gut health
Proper gut health is everything when it comes to hormones. When gut health is compromised, so is hormonal balance. Purition is free from artificial sweeteners, flavourings, preservatives, gums, and fillers. That means, no gut-irritating compounds that can disturb the delicate microflora. In fact, it’s a fantastic way of increasing plant-based diversity to give some love to your microbes.
One serving can contain a whopping 15 different plant foods – that’s some seriously great diversity!
