(Newswire.net — May 16, 2017) Orlando, FL — Menopause is a phase in a woman’s life that carries along a variety of physical and health changes. There may be many menopausal discomforts that come along with this phase. The good news is that there are also certain alternatives women may resort to in combating these changes.

Turmeric may potentially be nature’s gift to menopausal and post-menopausal women. Menopause is a phase that marks the end of a woman’s reproductive ability, and it typically takes place during the late 40s to early 50s. It can last for a period of about 4 to 5 years.

Menopause involves hormonal changes as well as a decreased activity of the ovaries. During this phase, the ovaries stop releasing female reproductive cells. It also reduces the production of hormones, which cause the menstrual flow.

Turmeric is believed to be effective in acting a phytoestrogen, which is a plant metabolite that modulates or mimics the activity of estrogen that is found in the human body. Phytoestrogen supplements are even used as an alternative to hormone replacement therapy.

Estrogen deficiency during menopause is believed to result in a variety of health problems. This includes sleeping disorders, hot flashes, vaginal dryness, mood swings, joint pain, cardiovascular disease, and reduced bone density.

Turmeric is thought to be helpful in replenishing the estrogen levels of the menopausal body as well as reducing menopause symptoms.

Turmeric is popularized by the bioactive ingredient it contains called curcumin. Curcumin is a phytochemical that contains a variety of unique ingredients that are believed to offer anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antibacterial, antiseptic, antiviral, and anti-carcinogenic properties.

This spice’s possible anti-inflammatory activity is believed to be comparable to that of certain pain management medications. It may be potentially helpful in menopausal women who suffer from body aches as well as muscle soreness.

According to statistics, 75% of perimenopausal women suffer from hot flashes. This symptom comes with a feeling of intense heat accompanied with rapid heartbeat and sweating.

It is believed that the potential antioxidant activity of turmeric is as potent as that of vitamin E and vitamin C.  It may be one of the dietary antioxidants that can be incorporated into the diet of menopausal women.

Turmeric can be consumed in a powder form, which can be added to a variety of dishes and beverages. It can also be consumed through curcumin supplementation.

Curcumin supplements are widely popularized by the higher levels of therapeutic properties they may contain. This natural alternative is widely popular among individuals with arthritis who suffer from pain and inflammation.
