🧐 Did you know fiber is extra important during perimenopause & menopause?
As estrogen declines, changes like weight gain, higher cholesterol, and slower digestion can creep in. Fiber helps manage these!

✅ Soluble fiber (oats, beans, fruits) supports heart health
✅ Insoluble fiber (whole grains, veggies, seeds) keeps digestion moving
✅ Soluble fibre (oats, beans, fruits) supports heart health
