One of the most frequent complaints I hear from menopausal women is that of erratic hot flashes.  Just the other day I stopped into my local coffee shop.  The female barista complained, as she served me, about the extremely warm temperature in the café. 

 

I responded, to her complaint, that the temperature felt comfortable to me.  She then leaned over the counter and whispered to me saying,  “I’m going through the menopause and having a hard time with hot flashes and frankly, I’m quite miserable.”  I felt her “pain” so to speak. Needless to say,  as soon as she got a break from serving customers I passed her information on my site which is totally dedicated to menopausal women and hot flash help…she thanked me for the information and indicated she would definitely visit my site with the hope of finding hot flash help.

 

Millions of women suffer with hot flashes both day and throughout the night while sleeping, with no hot flash help in sight.  

 

To make matters worse, hot flashes may be accompanied by palpitations, headaches or dizziness, which can be totally overwhelming.  An increase in omega-3 fatty acids may be what you need to help boost hormone production and get the hot flash help you need and deserve.

 

I’ve learned, as we go through menopause, our hormone levels begin to fall and this is the cause of many of the symptoms associated with menopause. Omega-3 fatty acids increase hormone levels and can help relieve your and my hot flashes, Now how is that for good news?

To your excellent health!

Some women will say that menopause is a natural experience and quite enjoyable. Most women will not agree. The symptoms of menopause can be confusing and difficult for both women and everyone around them. Diet and exercise can help women ease them into the next stage of their life and it really does make a difference.

 

Many women go through menopause without even knowing or understanding what is going on with their bodies. The number of eggs in women’s ovaries decreases and estrogen and progesterone levels waver and then decline. Periods will be irregular for a while (different with all women) and then stop altogether. Because of the drastic hormone changes, women’s bodies go through various side effects.

 

Menopause side effects aren’t your everyday headaches and cramps, but instead women could suffer some serious health effects. Weight is usually redistributed and will go straight to the stomach. This is why an exercise program is encouraged. There is also an increased risk of heart disease and osteoporosis. Consuming extra calcium can help prevent osteoporosis. Cholesterol levels also rise in many women.

 

Symptoms of menopause that most women can expect to experience, whether mild or severe, include hot flashes, insomnia, anxiety, fatigue, mood swings, frequent urination, vaginal dryness, and even depression in some cases. There are conventional medications that can be taken to boost your estrogen levels and help minimize symptoms. One of the best ways to enjoy a healthy, happy menopause lifestyle is by eating a nutritious and healthy diet.

Are you coping with hot flashes? Want to reduce hot flashes naturally? I know I do not want to go the HRT or Hormone Replacement Therapy route. So, I’m continuing my research to help both myself and you my reader to “discover” a Hot Flash Natural Treatment which help you in coping with the dreadful hot flashes.

Over the years we have heard and probably read a lot about how soy can help lessen the discomfort of menopausal symptoms.

Honestly, I’ve never tried soy for aiding in relieving menopausal dreads, but continue to read a lot about the potential benefits. Nonetheless I just read some information on how soy protein can bring about a solution, so I want to pass the insight on to you.

From my reading I’ve read that 2 or 3 teaspoons of soy protein in a women’s daily diet can ease the discomfort and distressed feelings brought about by hot flashes. You can consume the protein in many forms. You can add it to your power drinks, add it to your homemade smoothie, sprinkle it over cereal or simply add it to a glass of juice.

 

Remember, like all other natural remedies, it may take a while for you to experience the positive effects of the soy protein. I encourage you not to give up after a few attempts at gaining relief through a hot flash natural treatment.
You can purchase a high quality soy protein at your local health food store. For more information on the possible benefits of soy protein talk to your holistic practitioner. You may find one at your local health food store.
To your excellent health!

Sarsaparilla Root Has That Distinction

 

“The name ‘Sarsaparilla’ is derived from the Spanish words
‘sarza’ for shrub or bramble , and ‘p arilla’ for little vine. It has been used commercially as a foaming agent in root beer and for flavoring in food products such as frozen dairy desserts, candy and baked goods. Who would have guessed that it is also one of the many herbal remedies used for hot flashes help.

It was not uncommon for cowboys in old Western movies who didn’t want whiskey to order Sarsaparilla, which was a popular beverage in the times before modern soft drinks.” Now many years later I am writing about it for the many women who are seeking hot flashes help.

Speaking of root beer, I can remember when my, exceedingly enterprising, Dad would make homemade root beer downstairs in the basement of our home…yep that’s right!

Boy did it taste good…I can almost taste it now…that very unique smell and taste of homemade root beer…there’s nothing like it!

He would use  large barrel like containers to make the root beer. Now I don’t remember the rest of the ingredients but I clearly remember he used Sarsaparilla.

Sarsaparilla is what gives root beer that clearly distinctive taste…I must say,  I’m not much on soda, but I still love root beer to this day.

By the way, you can purchase a “natural” root beer from your local health food store that is absolutely downright tasty….. and with all the healthy ingredients.

So much for root beer…here’s s the part about Menopause…Sarsaparilla Root (Smilax officinalis) increases energy, regulates hormones and has diuretic properties.

It may be useful in cases of frigidity, impotence, infertility, nervous system disorders, PMS and  disorders caused by blood impurities, as well as hot flashes help.
