Timothy Curry MD+FollowWhat foods are actually terrible for you, but people think are healthy?I’m talking about things like juice. Everyone’s parents told them to drink juice because it’s "fruit" and "100% natural" but seriously, that stuff is just an insane amount of concentrated sugar, often worse than soda because people drink huge glasses of it without thinking twice. #Nutrition #FoodMyths #HealthyEating #Food 111Share
Lucas Mendez+FollowThe Nutrient Deficiencies Almost Every Midlife Woman Has You can eat well and still be deficient. Research shows that up to 70% of midlife women are low in vitamin D, 40% in magnesium, and 30% in iron, even without anemia. Why deficiencies increase: Hormonal shifts affect absorption Reduced stomach acid decreases mineral uptake Chronic stress depletes magnesium Diets become more restrictive Sun exposure tends to decline with age Symptoms women mistake for depression or “burnout”: Low mood Fatigue Muscle cramps Brain fog Increased anxiety Restless sleep Restoring key nutrients helps stabilize hormones, mood, and energy. Recommendations: Vitamin D3 (1000–2000 IU/day) — check levels first Magnesium glycinate — supports sleep and calm Iron only if levels are low (test before supplementing) B12 for vegans or women with fatigue Your body isn’t weak — it’s under-fueled. Nutrient care is hormonal care. #Nutrition #WomensHealth #MidlifeWellbeing30Share
