Marilyn Glenville - Fat Around The Middle and Natural Solutions to Hormone Imbalance

On Saturday the 31st of October we hosted leading women's health nutrition expert Dr Marilyn Glenville to speak on the subjects of how to lose belly fat and balance your hormones using only a natural, nutritional therapy approach.Also the title of her most recent book, Fat Around the Middle was a fascinating insight into how it's not only eating habits that can cause you to put on body fat around the waist and abdomen but that a combination of poor blood sugar control and stress is a combination which is guaranteed to cause trouble.Sensible changes to eating habits and appropriate short term supplementation of certain vitamins, minerals, herbs and fats can rid you of the unwanted fat and start you on a journey toward better health.Our afternoon session built on these concepts surrounding reducing the amount of starchy, processed and sugary foods that seem to be so prevalent in busy modern life where our best intentions are often sacrificed on the alter of convenience. Marilyn showed how there are links between the physiological effects on our bodies of consuming certain groups of food and the common hormone related conditions of PMS, Fibroids, Endometriosis, Headaches and Fatigue.Here is what some of our guests on the day had to say about what they learnt;"Thank you for organising a great event on Saturday.  I have heard Marilyn Glenville talk on two occasions before and always find her fascinating – a real fountain of knowledge explained in such a simple way that we can all understand."Alison Clarke "I thought the talk was informative and so clearly delivered by Marilyn; she spoke with passion and with authority. Many thanks for taking the time to organise such a helpful event."Best wishes, Sue Strang "Thank you for arranging this event. I only attended the morning session, but I am so glad I did.  I learned an awful lot from Dr Marilyn.  Her delivery was very succinct and very easy to understand and she had immediate and informative answers for those people who raised questions. I am now putting her suggestions into practice and hope to see some results in a few months."Kind regards, June Chalker "I attended both sessions and found them both thoroughly enjoyable, hugely informative and helpful.  Both sessions were highly relevant for me personally, and for friends and family members – so I have been singing Marilyn’s praises. I bought Marilyn’s book on ‘Natural alternatives to HRT for menopause’ a few years ago and have been following her advice for diet since then. It was particularly useful to be able to ask her questions directly at the end of each session and to be able to select and buy books and supplements.  I will be following up to make an appointment at one of the clinic’s."Sue JonesIf you missed this popular event don't worry, Marilyn is coming back to speak to us again on the 19th March 2016.
