The basis for supporting the body during this period is a balanced diet. Eating foods rich in phytoestrogens, such as soya, can provide relief from menopausal symptoms. Oily fish, a source of omega-3 fatty acids, has a positive effect on mood, and green leafy vegetables provide valuable folic acid, which stabilises mood. It is also worth supporting yourself with herbs during this time. In particular, maca, spittlebush or ginseng are recommended.
