MENOPAUSE, Are you Irritable, Have Hot Flashes and Mood Swings?

This can be the happiest and most miserable time of life, when you are beginning menopause. You have gotten rid of that monthly visitor but now Mother Nature seems to have a whole new set of problems waiting for you. When you are beginning the stages, the hot flashes are the only symptom, you feel like the situation is manageable. (Usually occurs in or around most women's 40's.) When you get into your 50's you might not be able to sleep, find yourself a little more anxious or nervous than you may be use too. You might start to notice horrible hot flashes and mood swings and generally want to bite the head off of every person (friend or foe) you come across. Dizziness, heart palpitations, headaches, memory lapse, depression, joint pain or even bladder problems along with the possibility of skin problems, oh, don't let us forget to thank Mother Nature again for the decreased libido that will slowly start to make its own general appearance. Let's recap ladies.... the situation now seems unbearable.

PLEASE don't fret, Ladies these symptoms can be relieved and even eradicated with a few lifestyle changes.

Menopause is a prime example of how Western Medicine thinks everything can be cured with a pill or shot. Ladies in this day and age, we're becoming so much smarter than that and are aware this. In fact, lowering estrogen levels in our bodies can be regulated by incorporating some or all of the following things into our diet.

繚 80mg Black Cohosh, two or three times a day has been known to deal with many menopausal symptoms. Give 6 to 8 weeks to take effect.

繚 Flaxseed, 1 to 2 tablespoons daily. Take with 8-10oz water. Water helps hydrate the system from hot flashes and clean system. Drink as much water as you can daily.

繚 Soy Products, if you don't like tofu and such, try soy milk, and no it's really just like thicker.

繚 Plant foods, whole grains fresh vegetables and Fruits have a hormone balancing effect.

繚 Tuna, Cod, and Salmon help with skin conditions.

繚 Cold pressed nut and seed oil regulates estrogen production.

There are also a few things you want to eliminate from your diet. Try eating hormone free animal products, to stop a hormone imbalance. Eliminate Carbonated or alcoholic beverages they can aggravate the hot flashes. (That will probably be the hardest part of all. No carbonated drinks like sodas, but better kidneys as well. No Martini or second glass of champagne, but healthier liver... but trust me ladies, one glass of wine is still allowed so I've been told.)
