Hello! We welcome you to another issue of Nutrition Insights!
Menopause, often described as the “metamorphosis of existence,” represents a pivotal juncture in a woman’s journey. It symbolizes the organic culmination of fertility and the ability to conceive. Throughout the menopausal transition, the ovaries undergo a gradual reduction in their secretion of procreative hormones, notably estrogen. Typical manifestations encompass episodes of heightened warmth, nocturnal perspiration, diminished vaginal moisture, oscillations in mood, and alterations in skeletal density.
In this issue, we talk about menopause and the physiology of menopause for you to better understand the changes a woman goes through. We delve into the nutritional intervention for menopause and how diet and lifestyle management and a plant-based diet helps in the better management of its symptoms.
We also explore how to well manage heart health and prevent and/or manage osteoporosis in menopausal women.
We, NUTRITION INSIGHTS, fill these pages with insightful information on estrogen, the wonder hormone, phytoestrogens, superfoods to include in menopause, information from leading nutritionists, and articles tailored for you to stay updated and informed. We also bring you some yummy, easy-to-make, healthy recipes and give you a chance to feature your recipe and expertise in our upcoming issues!
