Alright, let's get into how food can be a natural remedy for menopause. We mentioned last time about a couple foods to avoid.  Now lets see what's good.

Here are foods that you should include in your daily or weekly diet – those foods specific to helping you with your menopause.  It's mostly common sense – stuff our mothers told us since we were young.  They are fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains (the good bread), nuts (raw nuts if possible) and cold water fish such as halibut, salmon, sardines and tuna (good for all those natural omega-3's). Try to avoid refined and processed foods, fried food and sugar.

Drink plenty of water! I get my water at Sam's.  The Ozarka water bottles are only 13-14 cents each when you buy them in the pack of 32.  Along with drinking water, a good liquid supplement like MonaVie EMV is a good choice.

Soybeans are a rich source of isoflavones, which is shown to have estrogen like effects, so eat your soy! Tofu and soy milk should be on your grocery list. Soy powder is available in capsules as well.  Another place to find soy is Revival Soy.  Be creative.  You don't have to chew on the soybean

Alright, next time we'll talk about some supplements and herbs.  Until then…
