Can anyone recommend any natural remedies for hot flashes?
I am 53 and am finally I believe in menopause. I am not feeling to bad except for a few headaches and exhaustion but mostly the hot flashes. Living here in Texas with the 100 degree heat sure didnt help (looking forward to winter), anyway I do not want to go on any drugs and prefer to do it naturally. Can anyone recommend any vitamins, teas, foods anything that will help my hot flashes. Thanks in advance.
my sister who had bad hot flashes and did not believe in alternative health at all as she is very medically oriented in that field tried this product I recommended to her and later told me her hot flashes completely left

hey buddy ……. processed sugar will trigger hot flashes, leach calcium and magnesium from your bones, wash out your precious water soluble B complex of vitamins and vitamin C and pretty much stress your system out unecessarily …. try ditching sugary and junky type foods if you eat any and cut out sodas, pop, alcohol too if you drink them as they’re all loaded with processed sugar …. as are prepackaged juices ……… they will only ever serve to put added stress and strain on your health and vitality.
eat more low sugar fruits like pears and watermelon for something sweet if you need to and more of the good carbs like brown rice, chick peas, lentils, quinoa (pronounced keen-wah) to keep your brain ticking smoothly and your energy levels up.
and eat loads and loads of fresh fresh leafy and green salad vegies too …. they will bolster your system with calcium and magnesium for strong bones, healthy heart teeth and neural functioning……… as an added benefit they’ll do magic things for your stress levels……. magnesium is known as the antistress mineral so eat more green salad vegies just for that reason if no other.
peace baby

Hot flashes will be made worse by anything that heats you up, including hot drinks, spicy foods, caffeine, etc.
I also live where it gets 100 degrees in the summer and I can’t live without my spray bottle of water which I put in the fridge so the water is extra cold.
There are many natural remedies for hot flashes. Any one or several of these may work for you, but you may need to try several different remedies before you find one that helps. Herbs include black cohosh, maca root, vitex (chasteberry), wild yam (not the cream), dong quai, motherwort.
Bioidentical progesterone cream also works for many women.
