Need help with menopause? Here are my top 5 vegan supplement recommendations!


Hi Reader,

I was walking through my local health food store recently and was shocked at just how many supplement options there are.

No wonder everyone is so confused! Without guidance, how would you ever know which supplements to choose?

So today I’m rounding up my top 5 vegan supplements that I recommend for menopause!

  1. An omega-3 supplement containing DHA and EPA – decreases inflammation and supports brain health, eye health, and mood.
  2. Magnesium bisglycinate – a natural sleep aid, important in bone mineralization, helps with muscle relaxation and nerve function.
  3. Inositol – a relative of the B vitamin family, can help with insulin sensitivity and regulates hormones, improves mood and decreases anxiety.
  4. Branched chain amino acids / essential amino acids – the amino acids that are not produced by the body and need to come from food, helps boost protein absorption, maintaining muscle mass, and can help with fatigue.
  5. Rhodiola – adaptogen (herb that helps the body adapt to stress), taken for longevity, helps improve energy, supports adrenal function and reduces the stress hormone cortisol.

Hi Reader, One of the biggest mindset traps I see for women in the menopause transition is the idea that we have to “feel ready” before we start taking care of ourselves. We tell ourselves we’ll start after work slows down… or once life feels less hectic… or when we’re a bit more motivated. But that moment rarely comes — and in the meantime, weeks, months, or even years can pass. This is something I wrote about in my latest blog post, and I wanted to share this short excerpt with you: “You...

Hi Reader, Does this sound familiar? You want to feel good in your body again, maybe slip back into your favorite clothes, but the idea of giving up chocolate or counting every calorie makes you want to throw in the towel.
