Science, with a human perspective.
I’m Dr Aminata Kanu, founder of Menopause Sanctuary. My work connects the science of midlife health with the practical choices that shape how we live.
MEET THE FOUNDER
Science, lived experience and a wider view of midlife.
I’m Dr Aminata Kanu, a menopause coach and health strategist with a PhD in Biochemistry, specialising in protein science.
I write and teach about menopause, muscle, metabolism, GLP-1 treatment and women’s healthspan. I created Menopause Sanctuary to bring credible evidence closer to everyday life and to widen the conversation about what our stronger years can look like.
A wider conversation about growing older.
Menopause matters. So do the years beyond it. I want women to have space to think about muscle, metabolism, cognition and independence together — without reducing their lives to symptoms or a number on a scale.
The Sanctuary is a place to ask better questions, learn from credible perspectives and turn understanding into everyday practice.
