Nutrition will always be Dr Hazel’s biggest passion, but as a woman, and as a doctor to many women, she wanted to expand on the work she does, especially when she discovered there was an unmet need within medicine and healthcare. Realising that our current model of male- centric medicine meant that women were understudied, under-diagnosed, misdiagnosed and under-treated, she soon knew there was an unmet need here and wanted to find some answers.While her first two books focused on healthy eating, exercise and recipes, The Female Factor sees her delving deeper into women’s health.

Are certain vitamin and mineral requirements particularly important at certain points of women's lives? It was physically and emotionally exhausting work and she has since decided to step away from her work as a doctor for the time being to concentrate on the Food Medic. She says that the information around this is only beginning to emerge but is very important for women’s healthcare.
