Intermittent fasting can play a significant role in helping your body handle them. Fasting doesn't have to be a challenge thanks to this manageable program that's tailored to your specific needs Studies have found that by fasting, you can manage your weight more efficiently. It's not even just a theory. Centuries ago, people wouldn't eat for hours upon hours while they hunted and gathered for their next meal. Between the larger portions and the tempting snacks at every turn, though, food culture has obviously evolved. But fasting still exists, and it can be a great way to control how your body responds to your food intake. Under normal circumstances, your body uses glucose as its primary source of energy. When there's no more glucose left to burn though, your body shifts to mobilizing your stored fat. That's the key to weight loss — but there are other benefits to fasting, too, like reducing blood sugar, supporting heart health, and even boosting memory and sleep. The beauty of the Reverse Health is that it's tailored specifically to your body's changing needs during perimenopause and menopause.

Woman's epic walk raises thousands for charity
A Trowbridge woman has raised thousands of pounds for her local air ambulance charity after walking almost 100 kilometres in 24 hours. Corrina Webb walked 97 kilometres in one day as part of an epic fundraising effort for the Wiltshire and Bath Air Ambulance Charity that has at time of writing seen £5,310 raised. Starting from Milford on Sea, Corrina headed west and kept walking through the night, making her way around Bournemouth and joining the South West coastal path towards Weymouth. 'What an experience,' she said, reflecting on the effort. 'The first 17 hours were comfortable, then it hit hard. 'Mentally I hit a wall, physically my legs were heavy and not moving as they should, and my body was broken. 'But I knew I wasn't going to stop, it wasn't an option – so it was head down and just keep moving one foot in front of the other for another seven hours.' During the walk, Corrina's fastest kilometre was an astonishing 10 minutes and 25 seconds. Her slowest kilometre, she says amid recovery from her valiant effort on this back-breaking journey, was 39 minutes and 16 seconds.

Corrina, who works for Wiltshire Council's health programme, says encouraging people to remain active and healthy is not just a part of her job, but part of her personal mission. As part of her inspiring journey, Corrina was joined by a host of walkers to joined her for stretches of the journey, which she says helped inspire her. She said: 'I love helping people, inspiring people, encouraging them to believe in themselves, and on this occasion so many believed in me, encouraged me, and helped me to keep going. 'My support crew I could not have got through without you all - you are amazing. Friends and family walked with me, brought me food and top ups on fluids which were very much welcomed and it was a very warm day.' Reflecting on why she did it, and what the journey meant to her, she said: 'I've always been asked when I do my crazy adventures what charity I am doing it for? My answer was always 'it's just for fun, and something I'd like to try'. 'So, I decided many months ago I'm going to create my own challenge and see if I can raise some money for a local charity. 'There were so many to choose from, but I chose to raise money for Wiltshire and Bath Air Ambulance, a life-saving service that has helped so many.' 'Over the last 18 months I've walked different stages of my challenge to work out routes and check any obstacles there may be, and then the day finally came. '24 hours walking without stopping… all for time and whatever distance my legs would let me go. Following the walk, she said: 'I am feeling so loved, so proud and my legs are a little bit broken but recovery is good and I was lucky to be treated to a full body massage a couple of days after." A spokesperson for Wiltshire and Bath Air Ambulance Charity said: "Each year we need to raise £5million to provide vital critical medical care, by land and air, across Wiltshire and Bath. Those funds come entirely from generous donations from the public. "There are many fun and wacky ways in which people can help support their local air ambulance, such as Corinna's incredible 24-hour walk. We can't thank her enough for taking on this challenge and raising valuable funds for our lifesaving work." To read more about the fundraiser, visit

By Five Early Years Initiative funding not renewed in Victorian budget
An award-winning health program reducing wait times for rural children to access health specialists has lost its Victorian government funding. The By Five Early Years Initiative was created in 2017 by a group of parents, service providers and community leaders in western Victoria with the aim of improving health outcomes for young children in the last week's state budget, a four-year funding stream allocated to the program in 2021 was not renewed, leaving the future of the service in doubt beyond June. By Five executive officer Jo Martin said she was "gutted" when she heard the news. By Five covers five local government areas: Northern Grampians, Yarriambiack, West Wimmera and Hindmarsh Shires and Horsham Rural City Council. In 2023, it was recognised at the Victorian Early Years Awards for Promoting Children's Health and Wellbeing. Among the programs run by By Five is a paediatric health program connecting young children needing developmental support with specialists at the Royal Children's Hospital Melbourne via telehealth. The program has reduced wait times from several months to see a specialist down to a couple of weeks, leading to earlier diagnoses and treatment for conditions like Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and dyslexia, according to By Five. Toddler Frank Torney was one of more than 135 children who accessed the service in 2024. His mother, Tessa Torney, said when his maternal health nurse raised concerns about his growth and development, the family was able to go through By Five to speak to a paediatric specialist at the Royal Children's Hospital within a week. "It all happened really quickly, and it's so hard to access paediatric services quickly [in western Victoria]," Ms Torney said. "It's a brilliant, brilliant service." As a local dietician, Ms Torney has also received referrals with the help of By Five and is part of a group called Friends of By Five, rallying to save the program. "I think we're certainly disadvantaged rurally, and I think that there's still a lot of work to be done," she said. Ms Martin said the group had requested $3.5 million from the Victorian government over four years and was now looking for corporate partnerships and other avenues to keep By Five running. In a statement, the Department of Education, which has funded the program until now, said the By Five Early Years initiative "has had a long period of government funding and support to raise community awareness and establish enduring local partnerships". Victorian Health Minister Mary-Anne Thomas and the Department of Health were contacted for comment. By Five's funding ends on June 30.
