Women feel 'less bloated' thanks to menopause supplements now 30% off
There are a growing range of supplements available to alleviate these symptoms, including those created by The Better Menopause. This brand provides scientifically-supported supplements designed by women for women, focusing on the gut-hormone connection to tackle the root causes of symptoms.
Better Gut is designed to support a balanced estrobolome, which helps regulate oestrogen levels, thereby managing menopausal symptoms such as hot flushes, brain fog, IBS, low mood and other issues. A well-balanced microbiome improves digestion and absorption, promoting better immunity, skin, hair and nails.
As reported by the Mirror, each daily capsule of the Better Gut supplement delivers 50 billion CFUs (live bacteria) directly to the gut in doses sufficient to provide optimal support. It's priced at £53.10 for a four-week supply, but our readers can benefit from an additional 30% off their initial payment cycle on any subscription purchase using the code REACH30 until 31 August 2025.
The brand also sells a Better Night supplement priced at £43.20 for a four-week supply. This is specially formulated to aid relaxation and combines essential vitamins and calming botanicals to support a better night's rest and overall wellbeing.
This night-time supplement combines essential vitamins with soothing botanicals to promote a better night's sleep and overall wellness. The blend includes ingredients such as Ashwagandha KSM-66, Saffron Affron, Magnesium Glycinate, Lemon Balm, Montmorency Cherry, Chamomile, along with Vitamins B6, B12 and D3.
Lastly, Better Metabolism retails at £51.30 for a four-week supply and is a natural supplement crafted to support women's metabolic function, blood-sugar regulation, cravings, and energy levels during perimenopause and beyond. This supplement features a mix of ingredients, including Berberine, Myo-Inositol, cinnamon, Cinnasil, and chromium picolinate.
Supplements to tackle menopause are increasingly popular. Lookfantastic has an offer on the Myvitamins Menosure 60 capsules reduced from £18.99 to £9.99. These capsules contain 10 essential nutrients and naturally sourced extracts, such as vitamin B6 to maintain normal hormonal function, vitamin B12 to support brain health, and biotin to boost energy. Another alternative is the A Vogel Menopause Support 60 that's currently on sale for £14.58 at Your Health Store. These can help alleviate tiredness and fatigue.
The Better Menopause supplements have garnered high praise, notably the Better Gut which boasts a 4.7 rating out of five stars. A customer shared: "I had been looking at a lot of different probiotics, but this one seemed to be the best suited to my peri menopause symptoms, so I gave it a try.
"I've only been on it for five weeks, but I already notice that I am a lot less bloated and my digestion is feeling better. Sleep is getting better also. I was having gut issues last year and wish I had found these sooner."
Someone else wrote: "I have been using Better Gut for a year now, and it has really helped with my bloating. I really recommend it."
Unfortunately, one buyer wasn't completely satisfied, as they noted: "It took away my mood, but I still slept two hours or three, wish I could sleep all night."

Man dragged to death in MRI scanner was wearing 9kg chain around neck
Keith McAllister entered the room to come to his wife's assistance when the tragedy unfolded. A man who tragically died after being pulled into an MRI machine was wearing a 9kg weight-training chain around his neck while his wife was undergoing a scan, officials have revealed. According to local cops, Keith McAllister, 61, entered the MRI room at Nassau Open MRI in Long Island, New York, while his wife's knee was being examined. The man's wife, Adrienne Jones-McAllister, said she had called out to her husband for assistance when the incident unfolded. "I yelled out Keith's name, [shouting] Keith, come help me up," she said. Ms Jones-McAllister recounted how her husband entered the scanning room still wearing the heavy metal chain he regularly used for weight training, reports the Mirror. "I saw the machine snatch him around and pull him into the machine," she said through tears. "He died, he lost, he went limp in my arms." The powerful magnetic force generated by the MRI scanner drew McAllister into the machine by the chain, resulting in what police described as a 'medical episode.' Keith was left in a critical condition and rushed to hospital. Ms Jones-McAllister said her husband suffered a series of heart attacks after being freed from the machine, and was later pronounced dead. MRI, or Magnetic Resonance Imaging, is a non-invasive medical imaging technique that uses powerful magnets and radio waves to produce detailed images of internal structures within the body.

The National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering warns that the magnetic field generated by an MRI machine is strong enough to pull ferromagnetic objects with deadly force. "Very powerful forces are exerted on objects made of iron, some steels, and other magnetic materials," it says, noting the field can be 'strong enough to fling a wheelchair across the room'. MRI-related accidents are rare but can prove fatal when they do occur. However, this is not the first such incident in New York. In 2001, Michael Colombini, 6, was killed at the Westchester Medical Centre when an oxygen tank was pulled into an MRI chamber by the machine's 10-ton electromagnet.

Loose Women star admits 'I haven't felt well for 10 years' after brutal cancer treatment
Eleven years on from her shock breast cancer diagnosis, long-running Loose Women favourite Carol McGiffin says she still lives with the effects of the treatment she underwent Loose Women star Carol McGiffin was handed the devastating news she had been diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer back in 2014. She had spotted a lump while on holiday, but didn't mention it to her partner until the Loose Women presenter could get home and have it checked by her GP. Carol said at the time: 'I knew from the moment I saw the doctor it was cancer. It was a bit like, 'Oh, right then. I know what this is about.'' Carol underwent a year of intensive treatment, including a mastectomy, six rounds of chemotherapy and 15 sessions of radiotherapy. However, she says, the effects of that treatment still linger on. She told Best magazine: 'I haven't felt 'well' for over 10 years since I had breast cancer, but it wasn't the cancer that made me feel ill, it was the chemotherapy.' In a bid to restore her health, Carol has tried a number of alternative therapies, but they haven't worked out for her: 'In an effort to improve how I feel,' she says. 'I've fallen for loads of wellness stuff like massages, yoga, spas, even meditation – which, if I'm honest, was all a big waste of time and money.' Carol is dismissive of the 'wellness' industry – which according to recent figures is worth over £170 billion in the UK. She says the entire concept of wellness is 'dreamt up by clever marketing people' and that no matter how much people spend on visiting spas or going on yoga retreats, it will only have a placebo effect. Carol says the secret to a good life is ignoring wellness fads and simply being good to yourself. Her recipe for contentment is 'living in a sunny climate because I believe in the power of the sun, eating a classic Mediterranean diet and crucially, not depriving myself of anything.' She says she doesn't worry too much about what she eats and drinks, and focuses on taking life easily and avoiding stress which, she points out, is 'the biggest killer of all.' Carol took a pragmatic approach to her diagnosis, only telling very close friends about her treatment: 'My mum had cancer and she'd brought us up to be tough about illness. I thought: 'So what if I've got breast cancer? Thousands of women get it every year. I'll get through this.' Speaking to the Mirror, she recalled how she had told her partner Mark not to bother coming to the hospital with her for one of her early scans: "I thought he'd gone to work as promised. I looked at him and said: 'Yep, it is breast cancer.' We just went straight to the pub and got absolutely plastered. 'But there weren't any tears,' Carol added. 'Cancer is not the death sentence it used to be if it's caught early because there is loads of good research. You just have to get on with what life throws at you.' She said that it's unclear what might have caused her cancer, which is why she hasn't made any major changes in her lifestyle: 'Cancer does make you look at your lifestyle. Some people say it's alcohol-related – but it could be anything. "I could give up drinking tomorrow and still get it. I would be miserable so what would be the point?'

Yorkshire nan cleared up grandson's skin 'in four days' with special ingredient
Skincare is a top priority for many, with most people prioritising their skin health as part of a dedicated beauty regime. However, finding the right products that won't cause irritation can be a challenge and often leads to frustration. But now, an unexpected brand has emerged from the heart of Yorkshire. 47 Skin, named one of the UK's fastest-growing privately held businesses by The Sunday Times 100 List for two consecutive years, offers a range of products featuring their unique ingredient - Silver Chitoderm. In 2024, the brand ranked 52nd on the list, and in 2025 it landed at 55th - marking a significant milestone as the founder Nic's father had also made the same list back in 2003. Silver Chitoderm, exclusive to 47 Skin, forms an invisible barrier when combined with silver, killing 99.9% of the bacteria that causes breakouts, according to the brand. Nic, the founder of the brand, explains that he had been battling blemishes for over a decade before a surprise parcel from his grandmother changed everything, reports the Mirror. He shared: "I'd tried what felt like every single product and treatment under the sun and spent thousands of pounds. Nothing worked. I even resorted to medication which led to a short period of depression. But in January 2017, Grandma sent me a pot of cream through the post with a handwritten note urging me to try it. I was sceptical, but to my complete surprise it cleared my spots and blemishes in just four days." He added: "I was so amazed with the results that I tracked down and partnered with the scientist behind the formulation. Now our mission is to spread the word through our range of incredible products and skin-positive community. At 47 Skin, we understand exactly how spots, blemishes and skin concerns can make you feel from the inside out." There are a range of products available for shoppers, including the Anti-Blemish and Scar Repair Everyday Cleanser for £29, which is used to help promote clearer skin, and leaves skin feeling silky soft and hydrated. Another option is the Anti-Blemish and Scar Repair Silver Mask for £24 which is designed to soothe, brighten and reduce redness and inflammation. There's also a best seller, the Anti-Blemish and Scar Repair Serum for £29, which naturally soothes and protects skin and leaves it feeling soft and hydrated and another product is their Anti-Blemish and Scar Repair Daily Moisturiser for £34 which is a lightweight, oil-free daily moisturiser. However, if this brand doesn't suit everyone, alternatives such as The Ordinary Essentials Bundle for £28.20 from Boots could be considered. This bundle includes a natural moisturising factors and hyaluronic acid daily moisturiser, a hyaluronic acid 2% and B5 hydrating serum, a squalane cleanser suitable for all skin types, and a niacinamide 10% + zinc 1% oil control serum. Another option could be the Medik8 Blemish SOS 15ml from LookFantastic for £25, which is a fast-acting gel that dries invisibly and leaves no residue. 47 Skin has received high praise from shoppers, with one customer, Anna, stating in June 2025: "I love 47 skin and would recommend anyone with blemish prone skin to use it. I wish when my breakouts were bad as a teenager that 47 skin existed honestly." Another customer named Gioia said: "It's the clearest my skin has looked in over 10 years." However, there were mixed reviews on Trustpilot, with one person saying: "It's made no difference at all to my skin after a month of using it." Zoe shared her positive experience: "I really tried everything possible.. I tried a few different brands which didn't make much difference, then my friend recommended 47Skin and I absolutely love it! The quality is so good and I notice such a difference in my skin! I used to be so self conscious about going make-up free in summer/at the beach and now I feel so much more confident - definitely recommend!" 47 Skin products are available on their website.
