Synopsis

The Female Factor challenges the long-standing assumption in clinical medicine that the male body is the default, and that women are simply smaller versions of men. It sets out to reshape the conversation around women’s health with a wide-ranging approach intended for women of all ages.

Bringing together topics including nutrition, movement, mood and sleep, it offers practical methods designed to help protect and maximise health. The book also includes 50 recipes and positions itself as a blueprint for understanding and aligning wellbeing, hormones and the body, with information intended to be useful in both the short and long term.
