Episode 42: Pregnancy, Postpartum, and Perimenopause Nutrition Explained with Steph Greunke

In this episode of Discovering Nutrition, Eliisa sits down with women’s health dietitian Steph Greunke to explore how nutrition needs shift across adolescence, fertility, pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause, and beyond. Together, they unpack why women are often underserved in these life stages, how social media has complicated nutrition advice, and what it means to take a more personalized, evidence-based approach to health. Steph shares practical insights on everything from bone health and iron needs in adolescence to choline, DHA, and protein during pregnancy and postpartum. The conversation also dives into body image, postpartum depletion, the pressure women face to “bounce back,” and why foundational habits like eating enough, prioritizing protein, and asking for support matter more than perfection. It is an honest, informative episode that brings nuance and clarity to women’s health nutrition.

Key Notes:

Why women’s nutrition needs change significantly across adolescence, pregnancy, postpartum, and perimenopause.
How social media has made women’s health advice louder, more confusing, and often less personalized.
Why pregnancy nutrition is about nutrient density, not simply “eating for two”.
The often-overlooked reality of postpartum depletion and why moms need support, not just survival strategies.
Why protein, movement, and metabolic health become even more important in perimenopause and menopause.
How to focus on strong nutritional foundations without falling into perfectionism or comparison
