Adopting a healthy diet, low in animal fats, sugar and salt, containing a lot of fruits, vegetables, and dairies can alleviate the symptoms of menopause and contribute towards better health.
The consumption of foods that are rich in calcium, such as dairies, almonds, broccoli and green leafy vegetables, as well as the intake of vitamin D, which helps with the absorption of calcium and is mainly produced in our body by exposure to sunlight, are both necessary in our daily diet.
The consumption of foods that are high in potassium and magnesium, which play a major role in heart and bone health, is also very important. Potassium can be usually found in fruits and vegetables, such as oranges, bananas, carrots, and broccoli, while magnesium is present in dairy products, potatoes, nuts and some fish.
