Perimenopause and menopause can be a scary and confusing time. The ovaries are throwing their retirement party, but you might not feel like celebrating!

As you transition into menopause, your ovaries are "handing the baton" back to your adrenals so that they can resume making the sex hormones they made before puberty.

If your adrenals are out of balance, which is very common in today's stress filled world, it can result in many negative symptoms.

• Hot flashes/Night sweats
• Headaches
• Digestive issues
• Restless sleep
• Anxiousness
• Low mood/Low energy

In order to help make the menopausal transition as smooth as possible, a woman's endocrine system needs to be supported now more than ever. This is where nutritional therapy comes in very handy.

"Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach him how to fish and you feed him for a lifetime."

My role as a nutritional therapy practitioner is to teach and empower you with knowledge and encourage personal responsibility for your own health. As your NTP, I will help you with those common, negative symptoms by supporting and balancing these 6 foundations of health:

• Nutrient Dense, Whole Food Diet
• Optimal Digestion
• Blood Sugar Regulation
• Fatty Acid Balance
• Mineral Status
• Hydration

Along with those 6 foundations, lifestyle support is also a huge factor during the transition into menopause. Sleep, stress, environmental toxins and movement all play a big role during this time.

Calming the nervous system and supporting the adrenals during this time is imperative and equally important as supporting the foundations listed above.
