A lot of these symptoms are also a sign of poor health and HRT will not Improve the symptoms alone. Leading to lots of women thinking HRT doesn’t work. If we address overall health and make sure women are eating and healthy balanced diet full of all micronutrients, macronutrients and amino acids that are vital for health especially during peri-menopause and menopausal years!
Most diet plans focus on calorie restriction rather than optimal health. For a peri-menopausal & menopausal women a calorie restricted diet WONT work, we need to nourish the body and promote health. When this happens the signs and symptoms will start to reduce and women will feel happier and healthier and start to loose fat in a sensible manor and in line with their hormones.
