hey, guys, dr. axe here, doctor of naturalmedicine and founder of draxe.com. today i'm going to talk to you about menopause naturaltreatments including the best diet and supplements for menopause. i guarantee after you learnthese five secrets, you're going to see great results immediately. in fact, i think you'llstart seeing results in 24 hours with your menopause symptoms going away if you followthese tips. let's start off with diet, the top foods thatare causing hot flashes and other menopausal symptoms you might be struggling with. thefirst food you've got to get out of your diet is processed sugar. surprisingly, processedsugar wreaks more havoc than anything and here's the big reason. it causes yeast andcandida overgrowth in your gut, which is also
responsible for hormone production. again,the big problem with sugar is it causes inflammation along with yeast overgrowth in the body. you'vegot to get rid of processed sugar. the second food you've got to get out is processedsoy. soy products, unless it's fermented like natto, you want to get completely out becauseit contains certain types of estrogens that aren't good for your body. number three, conventional meats, they'repacked with hormones, steroids, antibiotics, and they're fed genetically modified organisms.we know the hormones from the meat you eat can affect your hormones, in turn causingissues like hot flashes, low energy levels, low sex drive and much more. again, stay awayfrom conventional meat products.
the next food you want to stay away from ispackaged foods. packaged foods typically contain hydrogenated oils and refined flours. gettingrid of those would be wise. also, artificial sweeteners, splenda, sucralose, also aspartameknown as nutrasweet. those artificial sweeteners will wreak havoc on your hormones. last but not least, in general, also get ridof any type of gluten. gluten in your diet causes inflammation of your gut lining, whichcan even lead to autoimmune disease. if you're struggling with anything autoimmune relatedand have menopause symptoms, it's definitely because of issues like gluten. the next thing you want to do is here arethe top foods that can help balance your hormones
and help you get rid of menopause symptoms.the first one is going to be healthy fats such as avocado. avocado is high in potassium,magnesium and omega-9 fats, which are great for hormones. also, omega-3 fatty acids, consumingthings like wild caught salmon and other wild caught fish, they're high in epa dha, whichcan help your hormones and is very important as well. grass fed beef is great. grass fedbeef is full of iron as well as omega-3 fats. a few other foods that are great. berriesare high in antioxidants, specifically polyphenols. i wouldn't consume a lot of fruit, but theone type of fruit you should be eating a lot of is berries. things like pomegranate aregreat as well. also, flax seeds. in fact, there are medicalstudies showing that flax seeds and flax meal
can help balance hormones. i would do sproutedflax meal or chia or hemp. doing sprouted seeds, a couple of tablespoons in a morningsuperfood smoothie is always great as well. coconut products. coconut oil is the idealfat for you to consume and a great oil for you to cook with. it's great for blood sugarlevels and balance. last but not least, this is the number onesuperfood category for those with menopause symptoms, is cruciferous vegetables such ascauliflower, brussels sprouts, broccoli, cabbage, turnips, kale. i would go online and lookup or go to draxe.com, my website, and look up dr. axe cruciferous vegetables. i havea whole list there for you. adding in cruciferous vegetables, here's thesecret. cruciferous vegetables contain something
called indole-3-carbanol, which helps yourbody get rid of excess phytoestrogens and bad hormones. it really helps detox. it'slike hormonal detox. it's like a menopause detox. getting lots of cruciferous vegetablescan help. here are the best supplements that can helpmenopause. number one is going to be black cohosh. black cohosh is very popular in chinesemedicine. it's been shown in medical studies to relieve pms-like symptoms. the next oneis vitex, which is also known as chasteberry. vitex has been shown to help balance manyhormones in the body and also help the overall health of your female organs. the next one is called ginseng. ginseng andother adaptogenic herbs, ashwagandha fall
in this category. these herbs are known asadaptogenic because they help your body adapt and better deal with stress. if you're especiallyunder emotional stress, taking adaptogenic herbs such as ginseng, holy basil and ashwagandhaare greatly beneficial and definitely things to consider. the next supplement is an omega-3 supplement.we know omega-3 fats reduce inflammation of the female organs and gut. that can be keyas well. also, i'd recommend a collagen protein powder. collagen is great for the gut. oh, one more, probiotics. we've heard theprinciple you are what you eat. it's not true. you are what you digest. probiotics help digestion.listen to this. this is going to blow you
away. ninety-five percent of your body's serotonin,known as the good mood hormone, is produced in your gut. if your gut's not healthy, yourhormones are unbalanced. make sure you find a good what's called a soil-based probioticsupplement. last but not least, add some essential oilsinto your daily routine if you want to help relieve menopause symptoms. my two favoritesare clary sage and thyme essential oil. clary sage has been shown to help balance estrogen.thyme has been shown to help balance progesterone. other oils that are good for mood can be greatas well, such as ylang-ylang, wild orange and sandalwood. those are going to be thebest essential oils to use. for the essential oils, put a couple of drops on your hands,rub them on your neck, rub them on the temples
and your forehead or diffuse them in yourhome. those are going to reap great benefits. one other thought here, lifestyle is important.reducing stress. if you're stressed out and cortisol levels are high, that's going tocause menopause symptoms to be worse. taking a detox bath at night, i recommend you getsome epsom salts. do one cup of epsom salts in the bath, 20 drops of lavender essentialoil, take some deep breaths and relax. do that three nights a week. also, go on walks throughout the day. justtake a walk around lunch, in the evening, in the morning. take two to three walks aday for 15 to 20 minutes while breathing and just thinking good thoughts. that can helprelieve symptoms.
also, give yourself some free time. look atyour schedule moving forward this week, this month, this year, and add in things you loveto do. maybe it's lunch with a best friend. maybe it's walking around the mall. whateverit is, take some time for you. you do those things and you're going to seegreat results in relieving your menopause symptoms. if you want more great informationlike this, make sure you subscribe to my youtube channel. also, i've got some other articles,more in depth, on my website, draxe.com. just go to draxe.com or search "dr. axe menopausesymptoms" and you're going to find some more great content there. thanks for watching.
