- March 30, 2022
In season 17 episode 124 of Rachael Ray, viewers are in for a treat as fashion expert Stacy London joins Rachael in the studio for a segment all about menopause. Stacy helps women navigate the tricky terrain of menopause and look and feel their best throughout the process.
Stacy begins by talking about the various physical symptoms of menopause, including hot flashes, night sweats, weight gain, and changes in skin and hair. She notes that these symptoms can be particularly challenging for women who are in the public eye or who work in industries that place a premium on youth and beauty, such as entertainment or fashion.
To help women feel more confident and comfortable during menopause, Stacy has put together a collection of tips and tricks for looking and feeling great. She advises women to choose clothing made from breathable fabrics like cotton or linen, and to opt for looser-fitting styles that won't cling to the body. She also recommends investing in good-quality bras that offer plenty of support, as well as shoes with low heels that are comfortable for long periods of time.
Next, Stacy reminds viewers that makeup can be a powerful tool for boosting confidence and enhancing natural beauty. She recommends light, sheer foundations that won't clog pores, as well as cream blushes and lipsticks that provide subtle pops of color. She also shows viewers how to use makeup to conceal dark circles under the eyes and brighten up tired-looking skin.
Throughout the segment, Rachael chimes in with her own personal experiences and offers helpful tips and suggestions for dealing with menopause. She also takes the opportunity to share her recipe for delicious rotisserie chicken, which is perfect for busy women who want to eat healthy but don't have a lot of time to cook.
To make the dish, Rachael starts by rubbing a whole chicken with a mixture of herbs and spices, including garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. She then roasts the chicken in the oven until it's golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside. Rachael serves the chicken with a side of roasted vegetables, which she also prepares in the oven with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
As the segment comes to a close, Stacy encourages viewers to embrace their bodies and their age, and reminds them that menopause is a natural part of life that can actually be empowering. She advises women to experiment with new styles and makeup, and to focus on feeling good from the inside out. And with Rachael's delicious recipe for rotisserie chicken, viewers can nourish their bodies and feel satisfied at the same time.
