Menopause is the time in every woman's life when her menstruation stops due, among other reasons, to the fact that her body produces less estrogen and progesterone.
Until this definitive cessation occurs, about seven years may pass during which certain symptoms appear, such as irregular menstruation, hair loss and increased facial hair, hot flashes, excessive sweating, vaginal dryness, difficulty sleeping and mood swings.
These symptoms may continue after menopause and others may also appear, such as weight gain, osteoporosis, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, hypotonia and hypertonia of the pelvic floor, decreased libido, reduced cognitive ability (memory, concentration), depression, stress, anxiety and fatigue, among others.
There are recommended nutrients to prevent the onset of each disorder, the recommended daily allowance (RDA) and the foods that contain the highest amounts of them.
Antioxidants are substances that help prevent and delay cell damage, including damage caused by free radicals. The accumulation of these molecules reduces the production of progesterone; to avoid this, it is necessary to consume foods rich in antioxidants, such as RED FIG, rich in fiber, vitamins B1, B2, B6, C, potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron and zinc, which has been used in popular medicine in the Canary Islands and among indigenous American peoples for hundreds of years.
