Welcome back, this is the second episode. Today we're going to be talking about diet and how it can help with negative symptoms you might be experiencing in perimenopause. Most women spend 4-8 years here on average, sometimes more, up to 12 years. Perimenopause can start as early as 35 but the average age is 45 so let's acknowledge the changes you’re going through and address the simple things that you can do to ease those crazy symptoms.
As our hormones and metabolism change we experience symptoms we may never have had before. Focus on a healthy balance of foods to help with issues like mild depression, mood swings and anxiety, hot flashes and night sweats, and lastly, digestion issues like constipation, bloating and weight gain.
Honestly, the first and easiest thing you can do is shift your diet.
Here are the steps you can take:
Incorporate plenty of fruit and vegetables.
Get adequate protein at each meal, super important when in perimenopause.
Eliminate highly processed foods.
Consider limiting alcohol and caffeine if you have these symptoms.
Benefits of herbs and supplements.
Next week I'll be discussing how you can optimize your workouts while you're in Perimenopause.
