The 10 things you can do to improve your health and overall wellness at menopause
Have your hormone levels tested
Consider and discuss with your doctor a well balanced regimen of bio-identical hormones. Recent research has shown that taking bio-identical hormones can improve mood and hot flashes in women after menopause.
Have your thyroid tested and correct any thyroid dysfunction (hypothyroidism is quite common in menopausal women)
Address any sleep issue such as insomnia, sleep apnea, or narcolepsy
Take a comprehensive supplement regimen to support your immune system and metabolism (antioxidants, Probiotics, and Omega-3 fatty acids)
Engage in a relaxation technique to improve mood, immune system function, and reduce body inflammation
Follow a structured, well balanced exercise program for overall wellness
Check your vitamin D levels and fix any vitamin D deficiency, if applicable. There is a high correlation between autoimmunity and Vitamin D deficiency
Food sensitivity testing to know which foods your immune system is sensitive to in order to avoid them and thus decrease bodily inflammation and improve metabolism efficiency
