Find out how menopause has already started to 'affect' the presenter's life!

Cristina Ferreira is one of those people who pays close attention to her diet, and now, as she ages, she's tightened her belt even more! Approaching menopause, the Director of Entertainment and Fiction at TVI realized that her body "was no longer responding" as it once had, which forced her to make some dietary changes.

In response to an internet user on his Instagram page, the star of the Queluz de Baixo station described how she felt before this necessary change: "Bloated, with fat accumulation, a lot of inflammation."

The solution? An unexpected aid: gummies that helped her curb her appetite and eliminate—"not completely," as she revealed—sugar, milk, and bread.

But it didn't stop there. Cristina also decided to give her body some extra strength and intensified her weight training, something that, she assures, "makes all the difference."
