Women’s health is about so much more than calories or dieting. 🌼 What we eat plays a huge role in our energy levels, hormone balance, gut health, mood, recovery, and long-term wellbeing, yet women’s nutrition is still often overlooked.
A few things we found especially important while researching for Women’s Health Week:
▫️Iron deficiency is the most common nutritional deficiency in women worldwide and can contribute to fatigue, brain fog and low mood.
▫️A diverse, plant-rich diet helps support the gut microbiome, which also plays a role in hormone regulation.
▫️Many women don’t consume enough protein, despite its importance for muscle maintenance, metabolism, blood sugar balance and healthy ageing.
▫️The gut and brain are closely connected, with gut health increasingly linked to mood and mental wellbeing.
▫️Bone health becomes especially important for women with age, making nutrients like calcium, vitamin D, magnesium and protein essential.
At Viva, this is exactly why we focus on high-protein meals, 5+ plant varieties per dish, whole-food ingredients and genuinely nourishing recipes designed to support long-term health, without making healthy eating complicated. 💚
