Feeling tired, craving sugar, struggling with energy crashes, or noticing changes in your body after 40? Blood sugar balance may be an important piece of the puzzle. In this article, Registered Holistic Nutrition Practitioner Tasha Mijinke explains how protein, fibre, movement, stress, and lifestyle habits can support steadier blood sugar, improved energy, hormone health, and overall wellness during perimenopause and beyond.

Building muscle in your 40s is about much more than staying fit today; it’s an investment in your future health and independence. Take inspiration from my husband’s 95-year-old Godmother, who still lives alone on a mountain, drives herself, and does her own gardening and housework. Her vibrant, independent lifestyle is a testament to the strength she built decades ago. By incorporating strength training now, you can set the foundation for a pain-free, active, and self-sufficient life well into your later years. Discover why building muscle today is the key to thriving in your 90s!
