IN THIS LESSON
Smart Nutrition for Menopause offers practical, evidence-based guidance for thriving in midlife and beyond.
The guide highlights the importance of balanced meals with plenty of seasonal vegetables, whole grains, lean protein, and healthy fats to support changing hormone levels.
It covers strategies to manage weight, reduce cardiovascular risk, and protect bone and muscle health by prioritizing nutrient-dense foods and avoiding excess salt, saturated fats, and alcohol. Special focus is given to phytoestrogens (soy, flaxseed, chickpeas) for symptom relief, antioxidants for recovery, and hydration for overall wellbeing.
The document details smart supplementation (vitamin D, calcium, magnesium, omega-3s, creatine, B12, melatonin, zinc, and vitamin E) for bone strength, joint health, sleep, and mood. Emphasizing strength training, recovery, and self-care, it encourages women to see menopause as a chance to redefine what thriving feels like and to adapt nutrition and habits for long-term vitality, confidence, and health.
