Menopause brings hormonal changes that can affect bone density, heart health, and weight. Nutritional counseling can focus on:
- Calcium and Vitamin D: To maintain bone health and prevent osteoporosis. - Phytoestrogens: Found in soy products, they can help balance hormone levels. - Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Reduce the risk of heart disease and inflammation. - Low-Sodium Diet: Helps manage blood pressure and reduces bloating.
