Are the symptoms of perimenopause and menopause disrupting your life? Brain fog, fatigue, memory issues, and those relentless hot flashes can make it feel like you’re no longer yourself. These changes can affect your relationships, work, and even your ability to feel comfortable in your own body and mind. But what if you could take steps to restore balance and reclaim your well-being? Let’s explore proven strategies to help you feel like yourself again.

Understanding the Chaos

During this phase, it’s common to feel overwhelmed. Many of my clients share a laundry list of symptoms that feel uncontrollable, despite their busy schedules and attempts to manage it. Women often try various interventions—visiting the doctor, undergoing lab tests, medications, hormone replacement therapies, and more. While individual results vary, some of these treatments can help, whereas others might not.

Personalized Solutions: What’s on Your Plate?

What I’ve discovered through years of practice is the profound effect of diet—specifically, the value of increasing vegetable intake. Sounds simple, right? But for those of us living fast-paced lives, it’s often easier said than done. Do you know that you should aim for five to seven servings of vegetables a day? Ideally, these include two cups of dark leafy greens daily.

Vegetables are crucial not just for their nutrients, but because they are anti-inflammatory and packed with antioxidants. These attributes are essential as our body naturally increases insulin and inflammation during menopause.

The Impact of Lifestyle Adjustments

Through consistent changes such as diet, many women start to feel changes: reduced inflammation, less puffiness, less fluid retention, and less joint pain. These improvements happen because eating more vegetables can counteract the inflammatory effects of hormone level shifts.
