This is excellent for those of us suffering from hot flushes! Some great ideas in the discussion -Thank you - Looking forward to the sleep deprivation discussion, a full nights sleep is just a dream to most of us going through breast cancer and/or menopause.

I am in the USA. I really appreciate the high quality information you share on your channel. This is a very important topic for women with breast cancer and going through menopause. I have found that the research from Dr Barnard on this topic very helpful. He put women on a vegan diet and a half cup of cooked mature soybeans daily. It dramatically reduced the intensity and frequency of hot flashes. I tried this and it helped me quite a bit.

I thought soybeans were the number one crop for use with pesticides like roundup.

I just came across your videos today, and I wanted to say thank you so very much for this great information. I have learned more from these videos than any of the five doctors that I have seen during my breast cancer journey. Thanks again! 😊 Lisa

Really helpful our breast care nurses don't seem to know anything. I am amazed how much information I have found on this channel that I haven't been told even from the lymphodema nurse. I feel there is a big lack of post surgury help and support .I'm in the UK. Thankyou

Hi Deborah, thank you for commenting and watching. Unfortunately I am also hearing this feedback from the UK on a regular basis. I am working with a wonderful charity called Breast Cancer Now with enthusiastic Breast Care Nurses. I can put you in touch with them if you like? Jen

I know if I have a cup of coffee with a cake or biscuits I’ll have a hot flush. The changes I’ve made since my diagnosis and starting an aromatase inhibitor are 1) no alcohol or sugary drinks if I go out for a meal, I’ll just drink soda water 2) no coffee after mid afternoon, or have a de caf coffee if I want one later on. Cutting out as much caffeine , sugary foods and drinks and alcohol has reduced my hot flushes to maybe one per day. I also do yoga breathing every morning and walking every day

Thank you, I’ve found my triggers for hot flushes, they are caffeine, sugar and alcohol. I avoid all of these if I go out to eat and I have no caffeine in the evenings. It’s reduced my hot flashes to usually one per day and none at night. I take Letrozole

I get them every 2 hours, day and night. Prior to the heat I feel nauseous and get short of breath. Then the heat and sweat. The whole experience is short. At night it always seems to happen during a nice dream.
