Perimenopause can feel like a fog you just can’t clear. Some days, you’re flat-out exhausted for no reason. Other days, you’re anxious, bloated and sore—wondering if this is the new normal. You search “perimenopause symptoms”, “how to fix fatigue after 40”, or “natural menopause support” hoping to find something that makes it all make sense.
That was me.
As a nutrition and natural wellness practitioner, I was doing all the “right” things: clean eating, daily movement, mindfulness and some natural supplements. And yet—I was waking stiff, foggy and still tired after 7–8 hours of sleep. My heart would sometimes race in the morning, my moods were unpredictable, and I couldn’t shake that low-grade “off” feeling.
I wasn’t unwell. But I definitely wasn’t thriving.
One of the most overlooked contributors to perimenopausal symptoms is silent, chronic inflammation. It's not just about joint pain or gut health—it affects everything from hormone balance over 40 to mood regulation and energy.
A big driver of inflammation? The ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids in your body.
Our ancestors evolved on a 1:1 omega ratio. Science now suggests a healthy target is 3:1 or less. Most Australians sit around 15:1—and I was at 11:1, even with my healthy lifestyle. That’s firmly in the inflammation danger zone.
And it explained everything.

Still, my energy was low, my sleep was patchy and my body didn’t feel like mine anymore. I couldn’t shake the brain fog, stiffness or that frustrating wired-but-tired feeling.
When I tested my omega-3 levels, the fog lifted—literally and figuratively.
Let’s be real—perimenopause doesn’t always show up the way textbooks say it will. For me, it wasn’t hot flushes or constant night sweats. (Though, to be fair, I had a few before I started omega-3 support.)
Since beginning Zinzino Balance Oil—which I now consider the best omega-3 supplement for women—those symptoms vanished.
✨ Reduce hot flush frequency and intensity
✨ Improve mood stability and lessen irritability
✨ Ease menopause brain fog
✨ Support joint and muscle comfort
✨ Promote deeper, more restorative sleep
✨ Help reduce inflammation naturally
✨ Protect heart and metabolic health
After three months of omega-3 correction, the improvements were steady and profound:
I felt like myself again. Not just “managing menopause,” but genuinely well.
At 51, I feel stronger and more vibrant than I did in my 30s.
This isn’t “just aging.” This is anti-inflammatory support for women done right.
My omega-6:3 ratio is now a beautiful 2:1, and I credit this transformation to Zinzino Balance Oil—paired with testing and a tailored lifestyle strategy.
I’d tried fish oil before. But this was next level.
Most fish oils oxidise quickly, especially once opened. Oxidised oils can actually cause more inflammation—exactly what we’re trying to avoid. Imagine slicing an avocado, leaving it out and watching it turn brown. That’s oxidation. Now imagine that inside your body. Not helpful!
Zinzino combines wild-caught fish oil with antioxidant-rich olive polyphenols and vitamin D3, protecting the oil both in the bottle and in your cells. The result? Better absorption, more stability and true anti-inflammatory action—right where your body needs it.
Your body is like a high-performance vehicle. You can eat all the right foods, move mindfully and practice great self-care—but if your cellular “oil” is degraded, everything runs sluggish. That was me: doing the work, but still stuck.
Zinzino Balance Oil was like flushing out the sludge and refilling with premium fuel.
