What are the dietary taboos for menopause?

Menopause is a common phenomenon in women. Physiological menopause is a normal phenomenon, but menopause caused by pathological changes is an abnormal phenomenon and needs to be treated in time. Menopause caused by mental factors may cause some women to suffer from depression. So what are the dietary taboos for menopause? Let me introduce them to you below.

Avoid eating raw and cold food. Various cold drinks, mixed cold dishes, cold fruits, cold aquatic products and other foods can cause vasoconstriction, increase blood stasis, and cause menstrual blood to stop flowing, so they should be avoided.

Avoid foods that are not good for the nutrition of essence and blood, such as garlic, kohlrabi, tea, white radish, pickles, mustard tuber, winter melon, etc. Eating too much will damage the production of essence and blood, resulting in a lack of menstrual blood and amenorrhea, so they should be avoided.

Avoid fatty foods. These foods contain high levels of protein, cholesterol, and fat. Eating too much can easily cause excess nutrition in the body, further increasing fat accumulation, aggravating obesity, blocking the meridians, and preventing menstrual blood from flowing normally. Therefore, you should eat less or avoid eating them as much as possible.

Avoid carrots. The dietary therapy for amenorrhea advocates eating less carrots, because although carrots are rich in nutrients, they can cause amenorrhea and inhibit ovarian ovulation.

If there is a lack of protein and vitamins, the endocrine gland function will be reduced, the synthesis and secretion of gonadotropin by the pituitary gland will be easily inhibited, and the response of target organs to hormones will be reduced, such as the sensitivity of the endometrium to sex hormones. The main cause of amenorrhea is improper diet, such as partiality and picky eating, which leads to insufficient intake of protein, lipids and vitamins in food. Patients should adjust their diet accordingly.
