In this episode, I talk to Sally Duffel about growing and eating sprouts to manage your menopause symptoms. Her book Grow your Own HRT covers all the science of how plant hormones work in a menopausal body, she goes deep into the research, into the disadvantages and advantages of HRT from the doctor, which sprouts to grow and how to do it…. she covers the lot!
In our different ways, both Sally and I offer views of menopause that are outside the mainstream narrative and this information absolutely needs to be known: growing sprouts is cheap, well-evidenced, easy, researched, safe if you have a history of breast cancer and very effective.
- We talk about how sprouts affect your hormones
- How to get started without buying any special equipment and how to grow them
- How modern diet and cosmetics cause most of our menopause ‘symptoms’
- The latest, super-positive study on breast cancer and plant hormones
- What to grow to support your libido
- And how sprouts can help everyone, even those not in menopause!
