The Happy Menopause

Jackie Lynch is a registered nutritional therapist and the author of "The Happy Menopause," and her podcast extends that work into a weekly conversation about how food, lifestyle, and targeted nutrition can make menopause significantly more manageable. The angle here is distinct from the medically-focused shows on this list — Lynch is less interested in prescriptions and more focused on what you can do with your plate, your sleep habits, and your daily routine. Episodes cover specific symptoms and the nutritional science behind them. Hot flashes and blood sugar regulation. Bone density and calcium absorption. Brain fog and B vitamins. Gut health and estrogen metabolism. Lynch explains the biochemistry clearly but keeps it grounded in practical steps. She also brings on guest experts — endocrinologists, personal trainers, psychologists, sleep researchers — which keeps the show from becoming one-note. The tone is upbeat without being dismissive. Lynch takes menopause symptoms seriously and does not pretend a smoothie will fix everything, but she makes a compelling case that nutrition is an underutilized tool in the menopause toolkit. Episodes run 25 to 45 minutes and drop weekly. The UK perspective is refreshing if you are used to American-centric health podcasts, and Lynch's clinical experience means her advice goes beyond generic wellness tips. She works with menopause patients directly, and that hands-on knowledge gives her recommendations a specificity that sets the show apart from more general nutrition podcasts.
