Hot Flashes SOLVED
Meet Kelly who reduced her hot flashes in 10 weeks completely naturally
Laura Lambe, Menopause Practitioner and Founder of Menopause Mastery
Kelly is in her final stages of peri menopause (she has gone 11 months without a cycle) and came to us reporting a LOT of different symptoms including bloating, joint pain and hot flashes
After 10 weeks ALL of these are gone and she has also lost 7.5lbs
Hot Flashes and Night Sweats (vasomotor symptoms) are one of the most common menopausal symptoms with 70-80% of women reporting these
They are also the “easiest” and quickest menopause symptoms we treat – typically we get women to zero hot flashes/night sweats within 5-10weeks
COMPLETELY NATURALLY – ie no HRT or supplements
1.
A lot of Kelly’s symptoms were signaling high inflammation so that was the first thing we tackled and leaned her towards an anti inflammatory diet
(I done a nutrition workshop on the anti inflammatory diet last week over inside our Free Menopause lab Community Last week – you can watch the recording here)
2.
Reduce intake of refined sugars – this is things like candy, chocolate, alcohol, highly processed foods. Note the word REDUCE – we don’t need to fully eliminate them. These are inflammatory foods so in most cases they will trigger night sweats/hot flashes
3.
Consuming enough Vit E (15mg) and Omega 3 (430 mg) This can and should be done via FOOD – we didn’t use supplements here.
