Perimenopause Nutrition

Our approach to perimenopause focuses on supporting your body through this transition by addressing the specific symptoms and changes that occur during this time, all while emphasizing your overall wellbeing.

Key areas of focus:

• Symptom Management: Science-backed strategies can help manage symptoms like shifts in body composition, mood swings, hot flashes, and disrupted sleep. This approach is about feeling better in your body.

• Bone and Muscle Health: Perimenopause can lead to a decrease in bone density and muscle mass. Incorporating the appropriate types of exercise and ensuring adequate intake of nutrients can help maintain strong bones and muscles.

• Nutrient-Rich Eating: A sustainable eating pattern that includes a variety of whole foods can provide the nutrients needed to support hormone balance, energy levels, and mood. This includes a focus on fiber-rich foods, healthy fats, and protein.

• Stress Reduction: Practicing stress management techniques like mindfulness, meditation, or deep breathing can help regulate cortisol levels, which can be beneficial for managing both physical and emotional symptoms of perimenopause.
