Menopause is a natural period in the life of every woman. 

On average, menopause starts after 45 years. It is defined as the point in time when menstrual cycles permanently cease due to the natural depletion of ovarian cells from aging.

Many women experience physical and emotional symptoms during menopause, caused by hormonal imbalance. 

Today we learn the common symptoms of menopause and key foods to help and even eliminate menopausal symptoms. 

The earlier you make sure these foods are staples in your menopause and perimenopause diet, the more manageable menopause and the years beyond will be.

Ordinary Vegan also shares one of her favorite plant-based recipes to help manage menopause. 

Thanks for joining us today. I am deeply passionate about providing all the information you need to live a long and healthy life.
