Suggest Natural Remedies For Pre-menopausal Symptoms
I'm 46 years old and have been told by my OBGYN than I'm pre-mental pausal. I would like to take something natural for this because I'm having nights sweats, causing me to not sleep well and it bothers me someting during the day. I've been told by someone else to take Black Chosh Soy or Soy with vitamin E. Any suggestions
Soy isoflavones are effective in relieving pre- menopausal symptoms like hot flashes and night sweats. You can include it as a supplement or consume natural soya products like soy milk, tofu or soy paneer, roasted soy nuts, soy chunks and granules can be added to dishes, use defatted soy flour for making pancakes. You can mix soy flour with wheat flour for making dishes. Supplements containing soy protein isolate can also be taken.
Have a shower before going to bed and keep your room cool so that you don't have any discomfort due to night sweats. Avoid spending too much time in warm areas like kitchen. Stay physically active and eat a healthy diet low in fat and rich in fibre from whole fruits and vegetables, whole grains and drink plenty of water to keep yourself well-hydrated and cool. Stya calm and de stress regularly by meditating, listening to soothing music and engaging in an activity that you enjoy.
