Fiber and menopause
Fiber in the form of whole grains, fruits and vegetables can lower cholesterol, lower blood glucose, prevent constipation and all the other health problems as you get menopause.
Get enough calcium
Eating and drinking dairy products and calcium-rich foods a day will help ensure that you are getting enough calcium in your daily diet, and hence lower the risk of osteoporosis.
Soybean
Soybean contains phytoestrogens and isoflavones, which can improve menopause symptoms like hot flashes.
Soy is a great source of fiber and some types of tofu also provide calcium.
Flaxseed
Lignins in flaxseed are vital transmitters of hormone metabolism.
Iron intake
Eating iron-rich foods like red meat, poultry, fish, eggs, leafy green vegetables will help ensure that you are getting enough iron in your daily diet, and decrease the chances of anaemia.
Vitamins
Increase your intake of vitamin B and omega-3, in order to deal with mood swings, as during menopause these swings can seem worse and more difficult to handle.
Protein
Include protein rich products like meat, dairy products, nuts and pulses, this will help your body to recover from illness, infections and surgery.
