4. Reduce salt intake
Menopausal women may have symptoms such as edema and hypertension due to endocrine changes, so the daily salt intake should be controlled at 3 ~ 5g.
5. Drink less coffee
Studies have shown that caffeine can cause hot flashes because it dilates blood vessels.
6. Increase the intake of calcium and iron.
The estrogen level of menopausal women is reduced, the anabolism of bone tissue is reduced, osteoporosis is prone to occur, and the incidence of fractures is increased. In addition, women's daily intake of 1000 mg of calcium can reduce diastolic blood pressure by about 6%. Calcium can also maintain the excitability of nerves and muscles. Therefore, menopausal women should often eat foods with high calcium content, and the daily calcium supply should be no less than 1000 mg.

Menopausal women are prone to obesity, which is because the endocrine changes in menopause make the feeding center out of balance. With the increase of age, the amount of activity decreases, and the heat consumed in the body decreases, resulting in excess heat and obesity, which will lead to disorder of glucose metabolism and induce obesity. Obesity can lead to abnormal glucose metabolism, promote the formation and development of arteriosclerosis, and increase the incidence of cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, people in love sweating must control their diet during menopause, especially the intake of high fat and sugar.
