Menopause is more than the end of your periods. The decline in estrogen can affect bone, muscle, body fat distribution, insulin sensitivity, cardiovascular health, sleep and mood.

A few evidence-based priorities:
• Protein: ~1–1.2 g/kg/day, individualized
• Fiber: ≥25–30 g/day
• Resistance training: at least 2 days/week
• Mediterranean-style, plant-forward eating
• Adequate calcium + vitamin D for bone health

And for bothersome vasomotor or genitourinary symptoms, menopausal hormone therapy is the most effective treatment for appropriately selected women.

Foods to restrict not necessarily eliminate on a low-FODMAP approach: onions, garlic, certain fruits, wheat-based foods, legumes, some dairy, and sugar alcohols like sorbitol and mannitol. Portion size matters, and your individual tolerance matters.

Also aim for a normal amount of fiber, but favor soluble fiber like oats or psyllium rather than insoluble fiber like wheat bran, and stay well hydrated.

And remember the beets in this recipe are included in the list but : 1 beet is divided among 4 servings, so each serving has less than ¼ of a beet. That’s a small portion and may be tolerated by many people. If you know beets trigger your symptoms, leaving them out is completely valid.

The goal is not to eliminate foods forever it’s to find YOUR triggers

Recipe will be post in the comments
