Supporting Your Health Through Menopause: Lifestyle Adjustments and Nourishing Recipes
Menopause is a significant life transition that brings physical and hormonal changes. Adopting supportive lifestyle habits can help you navigate this phase with greater ease and vitality. Alongside medical guidance, focusing on nutrition, physical activity, and self-care can boost your wellbeing — especially when it comes to maintaining healthy vitamin D levels.
Key Lifestyle Adjustments for Menopause:
• Prioritize Sunlight: Aim for moderate sun exposure several times a week to naturally support vitamin D production.
• Balanced Diet: Incorporate foods rich in vitamin D and calcium to protect bone health.
• Regular Exercise: Weight-bearing and strength-training exercises help maintain bone density and muscle strength.
• Manage Stress: Mindfulness,
or meditation can support emotional health and hormonal balance.
• Adequate Sleep: Aim for restful sleep to promote overall health and mood stability.
• Stay Hydrated: Proper hydration supports skin health and energy levels.

• 3 eggs
