With the ongoing media focus on all things menopause you would be forgiven for thinking that there was only one solution to managing symptoms and that is HRT [Hormone Replacement Therapy].
But what do you do if you have a history of breast cancer like me?
Or maybe you just don't want to take it?
The answer is that it is entirely possible to manage your symptoms naturally by making changes to your diet and lifestyle.
It works for me and my clients so it can work for you too!
Whilst there is no one-size fits all approach here are some simple tips that can really help:
💚 Cut down on the sugary & starchy carbs that play havoc with your blood sugar levels & hormones.
💚 Eat quality protein at every meal.
💚 Ensure you’re eating a wide range of colourful vegetables and fruits.
💚 Find a way that works for you to unwind and manage your stress levels. Stress is a key driver of menopause symptoms.
💚 Try cutting out all alcohol for a week or two and notice the difference it makes to hot flush-es and night sweats.
💚 Be active every day, even if it’s just a short walk.
