The most helpful thing you can do is to increase your intake of foods rich in natural phytoestrogens which help give flagging hormone levels a gentle boost.
To obtain a therapeutic level of these natural hormones, have two glasses of soya milk, soya yoghurt or a serving of tofu daily, and sprinkle a tablespoon of ground linseeds on your breakfast cereal each morning.
Add to this one more serving each day of a phytoestrogen-containing food every day, such as chickpeas, mung beans, alfalfa, lentils, pumpkin, sunflower or sesame seeds, soy beans, and you should be well on the way to easing hot flushes as well as helping protect against osteoporosis and heart disease.
A supplement is a good back up if you find these steps too difficult to incorporate into your diet.
Examples of phytoestrogen supplements are Novagen Red Clover and Aria, available from all good health food shops.
