Forget fad diets and extreme routines. Real change starts with understanding your body—and taking the next small step.
Weight gain in midlife isn’t unusual—in fact, 70% of women experience it during menopause. But for some women, especially Hispanic women, the impact can be even more pronounced, with higher rates of metabolic changes and an increased risk for prediabetes. That’s the part no one really prepares you for. The diets that worked before stop working. Energy dips. Cravings spike. And suddenly, just getting through the day feels like an uphill climb.
But here’s the thing: getting back in balance doesn’t have to mean overhauling your life.
I recently came across Nutu™, a personalized health and lifestyle platform designed to help women take back control—through science, support, and small steps that build up over time. At the center of the experience is the Nutu Score: a daily snapshot of your body’s balance based on how you eat, sleep, move, and live. This isn’t just another calorie-counting app. Nutu is designed by dietitians, endocrinologists, food scientists, and engineers who understand the nuances of women’s health, especially in midlife.
What makes Nutu different is how deeply it understands the complexities of health during this phase of life. From activity tracking to smart meal logging (yes, even restaurant food), everything connects back to one personalized metric. The Nutu Score helps you see how your choices are working for you—or what might need a gentle nudge. Whether you’re dining out or cooking at home, Nutu offers tailored recommendations to guide your choices, without judgment. It’s not about perfection; it’s about gradual progress, at your own pace.
For Kathy, who started using Nutu after learning she was at risk for prediabetes, the app has been a powerful tool for positive change.She told me:
“This is the one app that works all the parts together—food, exercise, weight, coaching—and it gives me one score that makes it easier to manage than focusing on all the pieces separately,” Kathy shares. “The coach encourages me daily and prompts me to make better choices with food. I’ve actually seen my blood pressure and my weight come down. That’s key for me.”
Another longtime user, Guy, appreciates Nutu’s practical, real-life approach to health.
“The best part is that I can see how my food choices affect me—at home or out to eat. The score gives me feedback without shame. It even recognizes physical activity like walking my dog or doing yard work. It’s practical, and it fits into real life.”
And that’s the real beauty of Nutu: it doesn’t ask you to be perfect. It simply provides you with the tools and insight to make the next right choice—and then another, and another. Over time, those small choices add up. Not just to weight loss or improved blood sugar levels, but to something bigger: a renewed sense of confidence in your body, your health, and your future.
