Nourished not depleted: the smarter way to lose weight after 40 – with Georgie Murphy

About this episode

Liz Earle and Georgie Murphy discuss the challenges of weight loss after 40 and the importance of proper nourishment.

Why does weight loss suddenly feel harder in midlife – even when we’re eating less? Liz is joined by Georgie Murphy, Head of Nutrition for supplement brand SISTERLY, to explore the impact of hormonal shifts, muscle loss and nutrient deficiencies on our bodies. They discuss how restricted eating can actually work against weight loss after 40, and why proper nourishment works more effectively for the everyday demands of a busy midlife.
