Description

Minimize the symptoms of perimenopause and menopause naturally through a sustainable, enjoyable eating plan, physical activity, and other beneficial lifestyle habits. Menopause is uncharted territory for every woman, and it's often difficult to know what you can do to ease the effects of hormonal changes without medication. With honesty and optimism, The Menopause Diet Plan encourages women to take a positive approach to managing their physical health and emotional well-being during perimenopause and beyond by offering easy, natural strategies for managing their weight, hot flashes, sleep difficulties, mood swings, bone health, and more. It highlights the current scientific evidence on the best diet and exercise plan for weight control and how to keep your heart, brain, and bones healthy while decreasing your risk for cancer and other chronic conditions. Registered dietitians Hillary Wright and Elizabeth Ward suggest targeted lifestyle changes including stress management, healthy eating strategies, and dietary supplements, and they balance evidence-based recommendations with real-life circumstances. The Menopause Diet Plan is unique, taking the best advice from the world's healthiest diets and combining it with science-based nutrition and lifestyle advice to address common concerns during, and after, the transition through menopause. It also includes delicious recipes such as Peanut Butter Smoothie, Chicken Italiano, and Chocolate Oatmeal Energy Bars to inspire a balanced eating plan that benefits women at this stage of life. With a comprehensive approach to better health before, during, and after menopause, The Menopause Diet Plan gives women the chance to take charge of their health and live life to the fullest.
