Healthy Her by Amelia Phillips

November 03 Itchy, Stuffy, Flushed? Is It Allergies, Histamine or MCAS? With Dr Tina Peers

In this episode of Healthy Her, host Amelia Phillips sits down with Dr Tina Peers to unpack three conditions with surprisingly similar symptoms: allergies, histamine intolerance and mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS).

For Amelia, it started with itchy eyes in spring and a stuffy nose within minutes of drinking white wine. Could those reactions have something in common? And what about flushing, headaches, digestive trouble or heart palpitations that seem to come out of nowhere?

Amelia and Tina explore how to make sense of overlapping symptoms, what to look for when they flare, and why some women notice them for the first time in perimenopause. They discuss the possible relationship between estrogen and histamine, whether HRT might change symptoms, and what to bring to your GP if you keep having reactions you can’t explain.

In this episode, they cover:

How seasonal allergies, histamine intolerance and MCAS differ, even when the symptoms overlap
What the timing of a flare can tell you, and where testing may help
Why symptoms can become more noticeable in your 40s and 50s, and how fluctuating hormones might play a role
What to consider if your symptoms change after starting HRT
How management differs for hay fever, suspected histamine intolerance and MCAS
When recurring flare-ups are worth investigating and how to prepare for that first appointment

October 29 Peri and Contraception: What Works, What Doesn’t and When to Stop

In this Mini Motivation episode, host Amelia Phillips is joined by women’s health GP Dr Ginni Mansberg to unpack one of the most confusing topics in perimenopause: contraception.

If you’ve finished having babies and are heading into your 40s or 50s, you might be wondering whether you still need contraception, which option is best, and whether your current contraception could actually be affecting your perimenopause symptoms.

From the pill and Mirena to implants and non-hormonal options, Dr Ginni explains how to choose the right contraception for this stage of life. We explore whether hormonal contraception can mask the signs of perimenopause, which options might help manage heavy periods, hot flushes and mood changes, and when HRT might be a better choice.

Plus, we tackle the big question: When can you safely stop using contraception, especially if your periods have disappeared?

A practical, reassuring conversation to help you make informed decisions about contraception during perimenopause.

October 06 Muscle, Menopause & Living Longer, with Dr Ginni Mansberg

Do you really need cold plunges, expensive supplements and the latest wearable to live a longer, healthier life? Dr Ginni Mansberg says probably not.

In this episode, Amelia sits down with GP, author and women’s health expert Dr Ginni Mansberg to cut through the increasingly noisy world of longevity and uncover what actually moves the needle.

Drawing on her new book, The Women’s Longevity Handbook, Ginni explains why she believes “biohacking is a bust” and why the less glamorous fundamentals may ultimately matter far more.

They unpack the things women can start doing in their 40s, 50s and beyond to protect their future health, from maintaining muscle and bone to reducing cardiovascular risk, protecting brain health and navigating menopause.

They also explore where menopausal hormone therapy fits into the longevity conversation, how much control we really have over our risk of dementia, and why looking after yourself in midlife isn’t selfish — it’s an investment in the people who rely on you, too.

And if the whole longevity conversation leaves you feeling like there are another 25 things you need to add to your to-do list, Ginni brings it right back to basics: what are the few things you could start doing now that your 80-year-old self will genuinely thank you for?

In this episode:

The fundamentals that have the biggest impact on living longer and healthier
Why muscle and bone become so important in midlife, and how to exercise when you hate it
What women need to know about heart disease and cardiovascular risk
How much of our future dementia risk may be modifiable
Menopause, hormones and where MHT fits into healthy ageing
Why self-care in midlife is anything but selfish
The three things Ginni wants women to prioritise for their future selves

September 22 Should You Consume Dairy in Midlife? Lara Briden Weighs In

In this Mini Motivation episode, host Amelia Phillips tackles the dairy dilemma: should we be including dairy for better health, or is there good reason to cut it out? Amelia is joined by naturopathic doctor and women’s health expert Lara Briden to unpack dairy intolerance, whether testing is worthwhile, and the benefits of dairy for protein, calcium, bone health and muscle through midlife. They also discuss the best dairy choices, when a dairy-free trial might make sense, and the nutrients you need to replace if you decide to ditch it.

September 15 The Strength Training Formula: Get More From Every Workout, with Tony Boutagy

In this episode of Healthy Her, host Amelia Phillips sits down with exercise physiologist and strength expert Dr Tony Boutagy to unpack the formula for getting stronger and building muscle after 40. They explore how often you really need to strength train, the ideal number of sets and reps, whether full-body workouts beat split routines, and why doing the same program for several weeks could actually improve your results.

September 08 Ask Me Anything: GLPs and low energy, lymphatic drainage, stubborn vitamin D

In this month’s Ask Me Anything episode, host Amelia Phillips answers three listener questions spanning some very different corners of women’s health.

First, do those viral lymphatic drainage gloves actually do anything? Amelia unpacks how the lymphatic system really works, where manual lymphatic drainage has evidence behind it, and whether at-home massage tools can genuinely “detox” your body or simply help with temporary puffiness.

Next, what do you do when you’re faithfully taking vitamin D but your blood levels just won’t budge? Amelia runs through some of the common reasons vitamin D can remain stubbornly low, including dosage, absorption, timing, body composition, medications and even the time of year you test.

Finally, a listener taking a GLP-1 medication has lost 8kg but is struggling with fatigue and a dramatically reduced appetite. Amelia explains why nutrient density becomes so important when you’re eating less, which foods give you the biggest nutritional bang for your buck, and how to protect your protein, fibre, healthy fat, vitamin and mineral intake when there simply isn’t much room on the plate.

Plus, Amelia shares details of her new 14 Day Vitality Reset and the upcoming Prevention World Menopause Day Lunch in Sydney, where she’ll be joining a line-up of leading women’s health experts.
