I'm on a mission to change the conversation around ageing. Women's health – particularly as we age – has been underfunded and overlooked for far too long. And frankly, it's time we pushed back.

Through this podcast, I want to share the knowledge and tools that can help you thrive in later life by taking action today. Because here's what I've learned: decline isn't inevitable. And when we understan... more

  • Disappointed

    I enjoyed Liz Earle’s book so thought I’d give the podcast a go. Felt like the whole episode was a massive advert for the guest on. Product mentioned frequently by Liz, felt like every few minutes, and it really destroyed the message, flow and integrity of the podcast.

    Liz is doing incredible work for women in midlife by sharing her passion for pro-ageing. Her approach is grounded in science, and I really appreciate that she isn’t afraid to express her own feelings and strong opinions—even on topics others may find uncomfortable.

    You don’t have to agree with everything she says, but there’s something to be said for someone who speaks honestly from their own experience. It’s refreshing, authentic, and genuinely inspiring—more voices like this, please!

    I love nearly all your episodes Liz and you’ve helped me a huge amount as a woman in her 60s. Was not so much impressed by this episode however. The dr did not mention the evidence out there for gut microbiome impact on brain health. Would imagine that a pure carnivore diet would have an interesting effect on that ……….

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

6 ways to shift midlife belly fat (without counting calories)
Q: Nicola is worried about sunflower oil in progesterone for HRT. Is that a concern?
The small amount of sunflower oil used as a carrier in progesterone capsules is unlikely to cause harm, especially if the overall diet is balanced with omega-3-rich foods and minimal ultra-processed oils. If the HRT is effectively improving symptoms and overall health, the trace amount should not necessitate stopping treatment.
6 ways to shift midlife belly fat (without counting calories)
Q: Veronica asked about cold feet and varicose veins. Are supplements like pycnogenol and red vine leaf extract worthwhile?
For circulation concerns, consider pycnogenol and red vine leaf extract as potential options, along with ensuring adequate omega-3 intake, magnesium for muscle relaxation, and calf-raise exercises to support venous return. Seek a vascular assessment if symptoms worsen or before undergoing procedures.
6 ways to shift midlife belly fat (without counting calories)
Q: What about whey protein for a teenage son who's active in rugby? Any guidelines to avoid over-reliance on shakes?
Whey protein can be useful for muscle recovery and growth in an active teen, but it shouldn't replace whole foods. Choose high-quality, minimally processed options with third-party testing, and keep an eye on overall diet including eggs, fish, dairy, and lean meats. Avoid excessive reliance on shakes and watch for signs of dysregulated eating.
6 ways to shift midlife belly fat (without counting calories)
Q: Hi Liz, I'm 55, and I've noticed weight around my middle after perimenopause. What should I focus on to reduce midlife belly fat?
Emphasize a combination of protein-rich meals (aim for about 30 grams per sit-down meal), resistance training two to three times a week to preserve and build metabolically active muscle, and sleep and stress management to reduce cortisol-driven fat storage. Also consider evaluating hormonal status and discussing with a clinician the potential role of targeted therapies if needed, but foundations come first.

Q: Could you give your knowledge and advice on marionette lines, including creams, tools, and treatments from home to salon options?
Marionette lines reflect aging and structural changes; start with strong skin-supporting practices (protein for collagen, sun protection, sleep) and consider non-invasive options like retinoids, vitamin C serums, and gentle facial massage before discussing more invasive routes such as fillers, which should be done conservatively and by experienced practitioners.
