@breezeharper This is an important and empowering conversation to have. Some dietary tips, to help navigate this phase with resilience, I have found.
Protein Sources, including lean meats, fish, eggs, tofu, lentils, and Greek yogurt. Protein shakes or powders (plant-based or whey) can help as supplements. Phytoestrogens: Foods like soy (tofu, edamame), flaxseeds, and chickpeas can help mimic estrogen and alleviate symptoms. Calcium and Vitamin D: Essential for bone health. Dairy, fortified plant milk, leafy greens (e.g., kale, collards), and fatty fish. Omega-3s in salmon, walnuts, and flaxseeds reduce inflammation and improve mood. Magnesium-Rich Foods: Found in nuts, seeds, spinach, and dark chocolate, magnesium supports sleep, mood regulation, and muscle function, e.t.c
Every journey is unique.
