Weight loss tips for Menopause

Part 4 - Weight loss tips for Menopause.

While it’s quite natural to gain weight during menopause, it does catch many women off guard. Most times the changes seem to be so drastic that we begin to feel that it’s going to need drastic/ extreme measures to bring it down.

The need of the hour, however, is a sustainable path to health and wellbeing and a reorientation of how we think about food and fitness. Any quick measure to knock off weight will not only worsen the menopausal symptoms in the present but also puts us on a slippery slope with long term health outcomes for the body and brain. The last thing we want to invite with age is frailty and fatigue, and so here are 4 easy foods that you need to bring back on your plate for fitness / health and of course weight loss -

1. The yam family of vegetables- these root & wild vegetables like suran, arbi, shakarkandi etc., are a good source of vitamins, minerals, fibre and bioactive compounds that can help keep the symptoms down.

2. Diverse protein - We are short on diversity and not protein. Menopausal symptoms of bloating, acidity and indigestion are made worse by mindless consumption of “protein rich” foods. So ditch the viral videos and invest in bringing back the diversity of pulses and legumes back on your plate in your grand ma approved proportions and combinations. This is the only fool proof method to assimilate the amino acids, folic acid, fibre without causing acidity, bloating, constipation, etc.

3. Chutneys - we don’t need seeds, we need chutneys for those essential fats and gut health. The til, alsi (flaxseed), dry coconut chutneys eaten with parathas, rotis & dosas are especially useful for the joints and skin.

4. Kharik- the dry date keeps the sweet tooth at bay, boosts your Hb levels & stabilises your mood.

What are you waiting for girl? Health isn’t a fling, it’s for keeps. All the best.

I like how you picked this rare topic which not many YouTubers want to discuss. Thank you for the tips !

[NikitaSJain]

This series is so informative. Thanks a lot for bringing it. I had so many queries on this. If you can bring out a list of instructions in pdf form on what to eat, how to workout etc for menopause, it will be a great resource for us.

Thanks again! For being genuine and not misleading us ever. Honest people like you are few in the health industry now.
