I had a very interesting conversation with Unique Figueroa on her podcast Becoming Unique about all things nutrition and why nutrition is important during perimenopause and menopause. 

Menopause is a natural transition in a woman’s life as her menstrual cycles come to an end.

While menopause is linked to many uncomfortable symptoms and increases your risk of certain diseases, your diet may help reduce symptoms and ease the transition.

There is evidence that certain foods may help relieve some symptoms of menopause, such as hot flashes, poor sleep and low bone density.
