A safe and effective way to control the hot flashes is through adopting a healthy, plant-based diet.
A study published in the journal Menopause found that
“a diet consisting primarily of fruits, vegetables, and whole foods helped postmenopausal women
both lose weight and manage night sweats and hot flashes.”
Women whose diets are low in bad fats eg margarine/seed oils and high in fresh fruits,
vegetables and healthy grains, like quinoa, brown rice, oats, sprouted grains, chia.
have a tendency to lose more weight, which leads to a decrease in symptoms.
Additionally, a plant-based diet is higher in phytoestrogens,
a substance found in plant foods that exhibits estrogen like properties
and can help offset many of the complications related to menopause.
A study entitled, Phytoestrogens in postmenopausal indications, reported that phytoestrogens “
could play a role in the prevention of other estrogen-related conditions, namely, cardiovascular diseases, menopausal symptoms, postmenopausal osteoporosis, neuroprotective effects,
and hormone-dependent cancers (breast and endometrium cancer).”
Some great sources of phytoestrogens are whole grains, chick peas, green beans and black beans.
Almonds, peanuts, cashews and walnuts are also high in phytoestrogens,
as are winter squash, broccoli, green beans, collards, and onions.
Apricots, dates, prunes, peaches, berries and seeds (particularly pumpkin, sunflower and sesame)
are also good choices when trying to incorporate more phytoestrogens into your diet.
So if you are one of the millions of women experiencing the symptoms of menopause,
before you turn to HRT’s, first try a diet low in fat and rich in these plant foods.
While it can’t turn back the clock, it could help you turn down your internal thermostat
and look and feel years younger in the process!
