Hot Flashes — the most outfit-ruining, sweaty, irritating symptom women have to endure during menopause.
You might wonder, how exactly does your body turn into a hot potato without a moment’s notice.
Well, the culprit is estrogen imbalance.
Your estrogen level is closely linked to your hypothalamus — your internal thermostat. When your estrogen levels drop, it becomes extra sensitive to temperature changes.
When it thinks your body is too warm, it tries to cool you down with the only way it knows how, by making you sweat.
If you want to stay calm, cool and collected throughout menopause, take part in our 21-day Challenge for Natural Hot Flash Relief!
This week, we will be sharing the foods you need to eat and the foods you need to miss for managing hot flashes.
You know what they say: You are what you eat.
So if you eat tons of food that triggers your hot flash, well chances are you’ll be mostly hot and bothered than others.
Interestingly enough, there are also foods that have “cooling” properties on your body, and can help regulate your temperature better during hot flashes.
Want to know what foods to eat & what foods to miss? Let’s get to it:
Spicy food causes your blood vessels to dilate, which can possibly trigger hot flashes. Try eliminating spicy foods from your diet, especially dishes prepared with hot peppers and chili powders.
Alcohol has a dilating effect on your blood vessels, making you feel warmer. If it’s really hard to totally stop drinking, try experimenting with white wine or diluting your red wine with sparkling water. Indulge in a mocktail instead.
Hot drinks warm your body, setting off a hot flash. It’s a problem for menopausal women because they’re more sensitive to temperature changes and have a lower tolerance for cold and heat. If hot beverages are part of an afternoon or morning ritual, create new rituals with cooler drinks – like cold brew or iced tea, or just pain water with a slice of lemon.
Overindulging in sugary foods can indirectly set you up for more hot flashes. Having a high blood sugar have been linked to a higher incidence of hot flashes in menopausal women. Try replacing sodas with club soda, cutting down on refined carbs and snacks can help.
These big & juicy fruits are made of about 95% water, making it the ultimate cooling food. They are also rich in beta-carotene & vitamin C, all healthful nutrients that help keep your body strong and robust. Melons are also a natural form of diuretic, which means they will help your body flush out toxins.
Coconut helps boost metabolism and stabilize blood sugar, both important in preventing hot flashes. They have become a stable necessity for most people because coconut water is not only cooling, but has tons of vitamins and minerals that the body needs to stay healthy.
Vegetables high in water content, like Lettuce, Eggplant, Cucumbers, Green Leafy veggies and Spinach are all excellent foods that may help with hot flashes. They contain tons of fiber, vitamins and water. The more well-hydrated you are, the less likely you are to have a hot flash.
Green tea is minimally oxidized and therefore is generally seen as the most cooling type of tea. It also contains the most flavonoids which have anti-inflammatory benefits that help with hot flashes. If you can’t drink it hot, opt for a cold-brew green tea or wait for it to totally cool down before consuming.
