1 Calcium-rich foods The rate of calcium loss in menopausal women is accelerated, and the risk of osteoporosis is increased. For bone health, eat more calcium-rich foods, such as dairy products, some green vegetables (such as broccoli and vegetables), beans, hard tofu and so on. If the calcium intake in the diet is insufficient, you can also eat some calcium tablets appropriately.

2 Foods rich in vitamin D Eating more foods rich in vitamin D is beneficial to promoting the absorption of calcium by the human body. Many menopausal women lack calcium not because of insufficient calcium in food, but because of insufficient vitamin D, which leads to low calcium absorption rate. Fish and cod liver oil are rich in vitamin D. In addition, sunbathing is a good way to get vitamin D. Twice a week, for 5 to 30 minutes each time, the body can synthesize the required vitamin D.

3 Foods rich in dietary fiber Menopausal women eat more foods rich in dietary fiber, which can enhance satiety and help control weight. Insoluble dietary fiber can absorb a lot of water, increase the volume of feces and promote defecation. Soluble dietary fiber can be decomposed by probiotics in the intestine to produce some small molecules that are beneficial to health. Coarse grains, whole grains and vegetables are all good sources of dietary fiber.

The root of menopausal symptoms caused by eating more soy products and flaxseed is the decrease of estrogen, while isoflavones in soy products and lignans in flaxseed can combine with estrogen receptors in human body, so they have weak estrogen effect. In addition, bean products and flaxseed also contain protein, dietary fiber, minerals and vitamins, which are very healthy foods for menopausal women.
