The #1 Best Food for All Menopausal Symptoms

[@fidelcatsro6948]

The #1 food for menopause symptoms is butter. Cooking with high-quality grass-fed butter, or even putting it in your coffee, may help relieve symptoms of menopause. It’s important to remember that as you increase your dietary fat, you need to reduce your carbohydrate intake. If you keep your carbs low, you can consume higher amounts of fat. Taking vitamin D and bile salts may also be beneficial to help your body digest the fat. More great foods to help with the symptoms of menopause: • Fatty cheese • Cream • Egg yolks • Seafood • Organ meats Thank you Dr Berg! 🐱👍🏿

Do you know you’ve gone through menopause? Have you had your hormones tested? I simply can not do much meat, it makes me so sick. I’m predominantly plant based. I had a hysterectomy years ago had no issues until recently when I started having some hot flashes. I got tested and found I was full on in menopause. I haven’t had any other symptoms though. You don’t have to eat meat to be healthy. I also know of people who eat plenty of meat and lots of butter and their menopause symptoms are horrendous. I think genetics definitely plays a part.

This is interesting. I am 51 and started seeing the signs of my cycle not being regular about a year ago. I had about a week of waking up hot about 6 months ago, so I started going to sleep earlier and paying attention to what I was hungry for. I mainly wanted apples, grapes, dates and Brie cheese, avocados and started craving butter, so I just made sure I had them readily available. I’m not craving them anymore, but maybe I’ll make them more regular as it could be why I only had the hot nights for such a short period of time. My mom said she dealt with them, and severe mood swings for 10 years straight. I work long hours at a barn caring for 30 horses, training young horses and teaching children how to ride, so I’m very in shape and haven’t ever had too much trouble with weight gain as I am pretty small. I also can’t really allow myself to have mood swings because young horses and young people need someone steady to work with, so I just don’t even allow myself to be unsteady mentally.

Since I was young, I always remembered the good and bad cholesterol as LOUSY for LDL and Happy for the HDL . Very informative video, thank you. Regarding. Low fat, I always noticed higher sugar content esp if packaged.

[@cocosilkworm]

I can vouch that butter will surely make your cholesterol rise. My LDL cholesterol doubled after I followed the advice of Dr Bright when I saw her on Steak and Butter Girl's channel. I'm also deeper in perimenopause this year but my total cholesterol was already pretty high at 309 (8mmol) before I started low carbing. It dropped a couple of years later to 260 (6.8mmol), possibly from eating more carbs or more plant fats, but then it was back at 310 (8mmol) a few months before I had the few weeks eating a lot of butter, and now my most recent cholesterol is 425 (11mol). My LDL alone is now over 300. HDL is around 100 (2.6mmol) and my triglycerides are around 62 (0.7mmol). I had a lipid subfraction test done a few years ago which confirms a small amount of the small dense LDL, but not too that much. And a CAC scan showed about 1% build up in one artery. It doesn't surprise me after 40+ years of eating biscuits with every cup of tea. I'm going to do another lipid subfraction test again shortly now that I have even higher cholesterol. It will be interesting to see if anything changes with the small dense LDL. I was thinking just the other day though with the way cholesterol rises in menopause, that it probably happens for a very good reason. And there seems to be some evidence of higher cholesterol in the elderly being associated with lower mortality, but the sweet spot for the LDL seems to be at about 154 (4mmol) (that's just LDL and not total cholesterol, which would be higher once you include HDL and trigs. ) and that's with a HDL of over 38 (1 mmol) and triglycerides under 70 (0.8mmlol). If you have an LDL of 310 (8mmol), like I have, it's about as bad as having an LDL of 77 (2 mmol), but the worst for highest mortality is having an LDL cholesterol LOWER than 38 (1mmol).

One time, I got really bad multiple hot flashes while visiting a new friend at her too-warm house, when I got up from the sofa, it had multiple rings of damp, salt stains on it from my severe sweating. I was mortified and wasn’t invited back. It controls what I can wear, do and where I can go and when. I live like a hermit in the warm season in my one room with an AC unit.

Hello Friend, How are you doing today ? Happy New Year and I hope you are blessed through out the year. I was just reading comments and I decided to say hi and hope we can be good friends and get to know each other better. Nice to meet you 😊

I crave eggs everyday and I use a generous amount of butter to fry them in or scramble. Have had craving for butter (fat) ever since going low carb keto. Butter helps me digest meat better if I cook it with or put it on.

Still not menopausal, but I think this video will come handy in the future 😊 Thanks Dr Berg 🌸

I was thinking the same thing. I'm going to kick the ketogenic diet into action now so that when it does happen I'm hoping It will not effect me as bad. Also I have no sugar, carbs and I always take vitamin D 😊

Happy 😊 New Year Dr. BERG & Family. I feel so much confident knowing your healthy videos are on Utube as to be honest you are probably the only Doctor some people can listen too . Knowing you know what you are talking about & genuine with real care for people. That is great to know as more people are self diagnosed due to many reasons.
