Eating well can help ease menopause symptoms, and summer is the perfect time to enjoy fresh, cooling foods that support hormone balance. Here are a few ideas:
Berry Yogurt Parfait:
Packed with antioxidants and calcium, berries layered with plain Greek yogurt and a sprinkle of flaxseed can help reduce inflammation and support bone health.
Cucumber Mint Water:
Hydration is key to managing hot flashes. Add cucumber slices and fresh mint to a pitcher of cold water for a refreshing drink you can sip all day.
Salmon Salad:
Rich in omega-3s, salmon supports heart and brain health. Toss it with leafy greens, cherry tomatoes, avocado, and a drizzle of olive oil for a satisfying meal.
Chilled Watermelon:
Watermelon’s high water content makes it a perfect snack to stay cool and hydrated while satisfying sweet cravings.
Iced Green Tea:
Green tea contains phytoestrogens that may help regulate hormones. Brew a pot, chill, and serve over ice with a splash of lemon.
These simple recipes can help you feel nourished, energized, and a little more comfortable as temperatures rise. If you’re interested in more nutritional guidance during menopause, our team is here to help.
