Combating Brain Fog in Menopause: Nutrition and Lifestyle Tips

In this episode of Joyful Menopause, host Lynda Enright delves into the common issue of brain fog during perimenopause and menopause. 

She explains how hormonal changes, particularly fluctuations in estrogen, progesterone, and cortisol, contribute to cognitive issues like memory lapses and difficulty concentrating. 

Lynda provides practical, science-based advice on how to alleviate brain fog through dietary adjustments and lifestyle changes. 

Key recommendations include consuming anti-inflammatory foods such as seafood, greens, nuts, and beans, maintaining a balanced gut microbiome with fermented foods, and incorporating colorful fruits and vegetables rich in phytonutrients. 

Lynda also emphasizes the importance of sleep, stress management, physical activity, and social connections in supporting brain health. 

She shares success stories of women who improved their cognitive function by making small, consistent changes.
