Nicki Williams is a nutritionist, author, speaker, and women's health expert. She's the author of the excellent book, It's Not You, It's Your Hormones. We often focus mainly on our sex hormones, but there are lots more to consider, especially in midlife.

We talk about:

• The importance of diet and lifestyle
• How we can take better care of our hormonal balance
• The importance of stress management
• Looking after the gut and liver
