During the natural process of ageing, many women experience discomfort due to the menopause. 

Menopause marks the end of your menstrual cycle, often occurring during your 40s or 50s, and can cause various physical and psychological issues. “It's important to listen to your body and remember you’re not alone when dealing with these unfamiliar symptoms,” says Lisa Moore from NutraNiche, a natural supplement company based in Milton Keynes. 

Below, Lisa reveals five ways taking specialist supplements can ease menopause symptoms, help you stay healthy and make the most of every moment.  

1. Combining well-researched ingredients provides effective relief from menopausal symptoms 

There are an enormous number of health supplements aimed at women experiencing the menopause, and it can be difficult to discover one that works best for you. To discover the most effective treatment, it’s important to research what scientific evidence has gone into making each product.  

“Before creating our own supplement, we spent many years researching the existing options on the market,” explains Lisa. “Taking the time to study the most common symptoms, the raw ingredients used in most supplements, and which components were most effective gave us a fantastic overview. 

“Flaxseed oil is a central ingredient within a significant number of menopausal supplements, as some studies indicate it can alleviate mild symptoms of hot flushes and night sweats. We researched the impact of flaxseed oil combined with a range of other components, and our laboratory produced a capsule that’s proven to ease menopausal symptoms and preserve your general health.”

2. Discover a convenient way to reduce common symptoms of the menopause 

The menopause can affect your mental wellbeing as much as your physical health, leading to changes in your mood and increased anxiety. It can also cause hot flushes, night sweats, palpitations, and muscle and joint pain. This can disrupt your daily routine, making it harder to care for your family, focus on work and take part in activities or social outings.  

“Taking a supplement that can ease these symptoms can help you regain control of your life and make all the difference,” Lisa explains. “Sometimes, opening up and talking about the effects of going through the menopause can be difficult and can prevent women from seeking the help they need.

“This is why we’re dedicated to delivering an effective alternative – one that’s easy to take every day, reduces the severity of your symptoms and could give you back your confidence.”  

3. Supplements can help you avoid invasive menopause therapy 

For those experiencing difficulties with the menopause, the medical options can be quite severe. Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is a regularly prescribed method of increasing the hormones that become imbalanced during the menopause. 

Most women take a combination of hormones in tablet form, creams, or gel. However, HRT can cause distressing side effects such as abdominal pain, nausea, headaches, and indigestion. Some forms of HRT can also increase the risk of breast cancer. 

“There are other medicines and even surgical options available for those dealing with severe menopausal symptoms,” reveals Lisa.  

“However, if you’re feeling apprehensive about these routes, taking a support supplement may alleviate your discomfort and reduce the necessity for such treatments. Of course, if your symptoms worsen, we encourage you to contact your GP as soon as possible.”

4. NutriNiche’s menopausal supplement contains natural, essential vitamins and minerals 

Packed with crucial herbs and oils that have natural healing properties, NutraNiche’s menopausal supplement is specifically formulated to tackle common menopausal effects. As well as flaxseed oil, the capsules are enriched with sage and alfalfa extract. They’re rich in essential omega-3 oils and antioxidants that can improve your mood, reduce hot flashes and support heart and gut health. 

“The capsules also contain calcium to strengthen your bones,” says Lisa. “Some menopausal women experience osteoporosis (a weakening of bone strength) so it's vital to ensure that you are taking the right nutrients to encourage healthy bone development. Our supplement contains vitamin D which improves calcium absorption and promotes optimum bone health.”

5. It enables you to enjoy an improved quality of life  

The most important aspect of life is to look after your health. Even when you are going through a potentially challenging time, taking care of yourself ensures you can still live your life to the full – enjoying time with friends and family, as well as pursuing your goals and hobbies. 

“By taking two capsules a day with food, perhaps one at breakfast and another at dinner, you can mitigate the impact that the menopause has on your life," explains Lisa. "All stages of life have their challenges, but by taking the right supplements and focusing on your wellbeing, you can overcome them!”
