For many women menopause is an uncomfortable, if not miserable, succession of perimenopause symptoms running the gamut from headaches to incontinence to hot flashes.
But Dr. Marina Rose, along with other practitioners of Functional Nutrition, is changing the way that women think about menopause.
In her article about her book The Wisdom of Menopause, Christiane Northrup dispels many of the common myths about menopause. Not only is menopause commonly misunderstood, but many women are not aware of the natural approaches to support the body’s transition and alleviate perimenopause symptoms.
Ways to naturally balance your hormone levels to stay healthy during menopause include:
- Balancing your blood sugar with nutrient dense foods
- Staying physically active with moderate exercise. Extreme sports can push hormones out of balance
- Promoting adrenal health to balance your entire hormone system. This usually involves some lab tests and specific nutritional supplements.
Dr. Marina Rose has helped many women in and around the city of San Jose, CA to address their hormonal symptoms using a safe and natural Functional Nutrition approach.
If you’ve made lifestyle adjustments and are still struggling with the perimenopause symptoms, then it may be time to look into a personalized plan with more specific strategies to cope with your symptoms. There are many ways to help the body adjust to the changes of menopause, so it’s important to find the ones that work best for you.
