Navigating Menopause & Perimenoupause
Your journey through menopause is unique, and by prioritising your health and well-being, you can navigate this phase with greater ease and comfort. Making just a few lifestyle changes can significantly ease some of the common symptoms.
Recent scientific research highlights the vital connection between nutrition and health during this phase of life. Menopause is not just about managing uncomfortable symptoms; it’s also an opportunity to lay the groundwork for a healthier future.
Every woman deserves to thrive beyond menopause, ensuring that her health span aligns beautifully with her life span. By embracing proper nutrition and regular exercise, we can support our hearts, strengthen our bones, boost our brain health, and sustain our energy, paving the way for a vibrant life full of possibilities.
When it comes to diet, focus on incorporating good sources of protein along with a variety of plant-based foods and healthy fats that can nourish your body. Foods rich in phytoestrogens, such as tofu, tempeh, and flaxseeds, may offer some relief from hot flushes, providing a gentle touch of support. It’s also beneficial to aim for three servings of calcium-rich foods each day—think dairy and leafy greens—to help care for your bones during this transition.
Making thoughtful lifestyle changes can be beneficial. Reducing caffeine, alcohol, and spicy foods, as well as quitting smoking, can help lessen the intensity of hot flushes.
Many herbal remedies including black cohosh, red clover, and evening primrose oil can play an important role in managing symptons.
Other supplementation may also be of benefit. Most women living in the northern hemisphere, should consider that vitamin D can be especially important from October to March. Vitamin D3 combined with K2 can offer added benefits.
Creatine monohydrate can be a wonderful aid for women, particularly those going through menopause, as it supports muscle building and stamina. Recent studies suggest it may even enhance brain health. In addition, magnesium can be a comforting ally for anxiety and sleep troubles.
