Understanding how the body works during menopause can alleviate feelings of isolation. Prioritizing exercise over hormones in menopause is crucial as it impacts multiple health domains affected by this phase including depression, bone mass, muscle strength, heart health, and brain function. Exercise reduces the risk of falling, a key factor in bone fractures. Resistance training and muscle building are particularly beneficial. In addition to exercise, consuming 25 grams of fiber daily, sufficient protein especially from plant-based sources, and increasing vegetable intake are essential. Quitting smoking is also vital for overall health in menopause.
