‘Go and get it checked!’ Strictly's Claudia Winkleman issued health warning by famous mum
Claudia Winkleman, 50, has revealed that her mother, author and journalist, Eve Pollard, noticed an early symptom and urged her daughter to speak to a doctor. Eve is the Vice Chair of Wellbeing of Women; a UK charity dedicated to funding research across all of women's reproductive and gynaecological health.Appearing on an episode of Postcards From Midlife last month, hosted by former magazine editors Lorraine Candy and Trish Halpin, Claudia said her mother advised her to “definitely go and get your hormones checked” when she had shared that she had been waking up earlier than normal.When asked if her mother had prepared her for the menopause while she was growing up, Claudia was quick to reply: “Yes!”The BBC presenter explained: “I was brought up with that just all being part of my life and she sort of talked about the menopause, but — my mum and I know lots of people have had a horrible time — she had an OK time with it, but she said it will come.“She loves the doctor.“We worship the health service.Claudia then added: “So when I started waking up early, she said definitely go and get your hormones checked.”Perimenopause usually begins several years before menopause and describes the time when the ovaries gradually begin to make less oestrogen.Speaking on the Postcards From Midlife podcast, Claudia said she has had to make certain lifestyle changes, such as taking Vitamin D supplements to manage her symptoms: ”I have to take vitamin D, as my doctor said.“He said: ‘I thought you're always in the sun.’”She joked: “‘No, babe, this is from a bottle.

Putin miscalculated if he thinks West will move on after Ukraine invasion: ambassador
Russian President Vladimir Putin has made a “miscalculation” if he thinks the West will move on from his unprovoked invasion of Ukraine, says Canada’s ambassador to the sovereign democracy.In an interview with The West Block guest host Eric Sorenson, Larisa Galadza spoke from Poland where the ambassador and Canada’s diplomatic staff are operating amid the Russian invasion of Ukraine.Galadza and the Canadian embassy staff had been based in Kyiv before relocating to the western Ukrainian city of Lviv as the invasion began, and subsequently left the country for Poland.“It’s like a sea of humanity. It’s people standing in lineups, many of them on foot, but a lot of them are still in cars coming over the border,” Galadza said in describing Ukrainians fleeing their country.She said any assumptions on the part of Putin that the West will move on or get over his invasion of Ukraine is just “another miscalculation.”“It’s not the first miscalculation, I think, that Russia has made,” she added.“The response that we’re seeing from our like-minded governments, the response that we’re seeing from Ukrainians themselves, is unprecedented.”Some 1.2 million Ukrainians have been forced to flee as a result of the first land war on the European continent since the Second World War.

World's COVID-19 death toll nears 6 million
BANGKOK (AP) - The official global death toll from COVID-19 is on the verge of eclipsing 6 million — underscoring that the pandemic, now in its third year, is far from over.The milestone is the latest tragic reminder of the unrelenting nature of the pandemic even as people are shedding masks, travel is resuming and businesses are reopening around the globe. The death toll, compiled by Johns Hopkins University, stood at 5,996,882 as of Sunday morning and was expected to pass the 6 million mark later in the day.Remote Pacific islands, whose isolation had protected them for more than two years, are just now grappling with their first outbreaks and deaths, fueled by the highly contagious omicron variant.Hong Kong, which is seeing deaths soar, is testing its entire population of 7.5 million three times this month as it clings to mainland China’s "zero-COVID" strategy.As death rates remain high in Poland, Hungary, Romania and other Eastern European countries, the region has seen more than 1 million refugees arrive from war-torn Ukraine, a country with poor vaccination coverage and high rates of cases and deaths.And despite its wealth and vaccine availability, the United States is nearing 1 million reported deaths on its own.A nurse checks on a patient in the ICU Covid-19 ward at NEA Baptist Memorial Hospital in Jonesboro, Arkansas, U.S., on Wednesday, Aug.
