The fitness coach responded to questions about her diet in a post on Instagram revealing that she has adapted her meals since menopause.
She said: “I’m not on any specific diet. I don’t follow juice diets, fad diets, or restricted diets - I’m too long in the tooth for that.
“I’ve learned to adapt my diet as I entered menopause - more protein, more grains, plants, and supplements.
“I’ve found something that works for me but it still continues to be a work in progress.
“Please remember it’s not a one-size-fits-all when it comes to your health, your daily diet.
