I highly recommend Madelena Tapliga, who helped me change my diet, improve my health, and gain control over my food intake. She taught me what to eat, why, when, and how — mindfulness eating is now part of my life. She also advised me on supplements rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals, and helped me understand how to care for my skin from the inside out — not just with creams. She supported me through weight issues and other health conditions. She's patient, friendly, reliable, and highly professional. I recommend her 100%

Received great care before and after my bariatric  surgery from  Madelena. Very professional, informative and kind - can't thank her enough!

I came to Madelena during a difficult phase of menopause — I had weight gain, anxiety, poor sleep, and my skin was constantly inflamed. With her guidance, I not only learned how to eat in a way that supported my hormones, but also how gut health affects mood, energy, and skin. Her advice on using medicinal mushrooms and stress reduction techniques changed everything. I feel more balanced, lighter, and finally myself again

I had a consultation with Madelena at the Fulham clinic and was truly impressed. She combines deep clinical knowledge with a calm, reassuring presence. Despite my concerns, she made the experience feel safe, supportive, and smooth. Her professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail are exceptional. She’s a true asset to her profession — thank you, Madelena

Following my tummy tuck and liposuction with Mr. Tsekouras in December, I had my post-surgery nutritional consultation with Madalena. She was incredibly thorough and knowledgeable, offering tailored advice to support my healing, reduce inflammation, and optimise my recovery through nutrition. Her guidance made a real difference in how I felt post-op.  I’m beyond happy with the outcome and grateful for the ongoing support.

I was borderline diabetic and emotionally eating every evening. Madelena gave me practical, science-based help that actually worked. Her program included the right foods, beta-glucan mushrooms, targeted supplements, and support that made me feel seen. My blood sugar stabilised, I lost weight steadily, and I sleep better than I have in years. She doesn’t just change your diet — she helps you change how you think about health."

FAQs

Still wondering if GHW is right for you? Here’s what other women often ask

Q1. How does the program reduce health risks like diabetes and heart disease?

The GHW Method targets root causes like insulin resistance, inflammation, and belly fat through nutrition, lifestyle, and targeted supplementation.
We help you improve markers like:

  • Blood sugar

  • Blood pressure

  • Cholesterol

  • Waist circumference
    …so you not only lose weight but lower your long-term health risks.

Yes – if you’re joining the VIP program, you’ll receive a fully customized nutrition plan based on your medical and social history, lab results, current health status, and personal preferences.

For group participants, we provide expert nutrition guidance and frameworks with meal plan options that align with the program goals. While not individually tailored, you’ll receive practical advice to adapt meals to your needs and still see results.

Q3: What about gut health and detoxification?

You’ll follow a targeted plan to support your liver, eliminate toxins, improve digestion, and resolve food intolerances.

Q4: Can my family benefit too?

Absolutely. Our approach helps you inspire your family through your own habits—creating a ripple effect of wellness in your home.

Q5: What makes this program different from other weight loss plans?

We don’t count calories or push generic meal plans. GHW is designed to reset your hormones, gut, and metabolism from the inside out—especially for women 35–55 navigating perimenopause, menopause, stress, or thyroid imbalance.

Q6: Will it help with menopause symptoms like hot flashes or mood swings?

If you wonder how to stop hormonal weight gain, GHW is your best friend. Hence, the answer is Yes. GHW is designed to ease common symptoms of peri- and post-menopause through nutrition, gut and hormone support, and stress regulation.

We cover strategies that may help reduce:

  • Hot flashes and night sweats

  • Mood swings and irritability

  • Sleep disturbances

  • Belly weight gain

  • Brain fog and low libido

You’ll also gain tools to advocate for support at work and home—especially if menopause is impacting your quality of life.

Q7: Will I get guidance on supplements

Yes. You’ll learn about beta-glucan, nuciferine, and other powerful nutrients, plus get personalized support based on your unique deficiencies.
We’ll also bust common supplement myths, teach you how to read nutrition and supplement labels, how to choose high-quality supplements safely, and how to understand ingredient lists so you feel confident and empowered in making the best decisions for your health.

Q8: Does the program support mental health too?

Yes. We address mental health as a core part of your wellness—not an afterthought. You’ll receive tools to manage stress, regulate cortisol, improve sleep, and reduce emotional eating.

The GHW Method includes:

  • Mindfulness-based eating strategies

  • Relaxation techniques (breathing, grounding)

  • Cognitive-behavioral prompts for mindset shifts

  • Supportive community and expert-led discussions

Your mental wellbeing is essential for sustainable weight loss and hormonal balance.

Q9: Do I need to follow a specific exercise plan?

No strict or punishing routines. We focus on simple, effective movement that supports your metabolism, hormone balance, and joint health—especially during perimenopause and menopause.

You’ll be encouraged to build a routine that includes:

  • Walking regularly — one of the best low-impact ways to support fat loss, insulin sensitivity, and mental clarity

  • Strength training — using body weight, resistance bands, or dumbbells, either at home or in the gym (depending on what fits your lifestyle best)

  • Daily mobility or light movement — like stretching or yoga to reduce stiffness and stress

Exercise recommendations are flexible and adapted to your energy level, hormonal shifts, and overall wellbeing.
