If you are experiencing menopausal symptoms, you may be wondering if there is anything you can do to feel better, other than taking medication. While every woman is different, and their approach to symptom relief will be individual, most women feel mentally and physically better when they are eating hormone supportive foods. The priority is to reduce uncomfortable symptoms, balance insulin levels, reduce inflammation and restore gut health. Small changes can make a big difference and this can be achieved by including fermented foods, apple cider vinegar, low GI foods, good fats and a wide range of nutrient dense foods that provide vitamins with anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
