Patient's question:
I am 57 years old, and lately, I've been feeling down and easily irritated. Sometimes, I don't even want to talk to my family. How can I regulate my menopausal symptoms? Can I drink honey water every day?Doctor's answer:
Women can drink honey water during menopause. When women enter menopause, they often experience emotional instability, which can manifest as hot flashes, agitation, restlessness, tension, and depression. There are also some daily care methods, such as maintaining regular exercise, ensuring deep and sufficient sleep, and keeping a pleasant mood. In terms of diet, it's important to combine plant-based and animal-based foods, with a focus on plant-based options. Avoid picky eating, maintain a balance of coarse and fine grains, and avoid overly sweet, salty, or greasy foods. Eat meals at regular times, in appropriate amounts, and avoid overeating. Reduce the intake of fried, grilled, and smoked foods. Personally, the best method is to engage in ample outdoor exercise or practice spiritual yoga.
