对于所有女士,本文为您准备人生中不可避免的阶段:更年期。更年期,与普遍的看法相反,并不是医学上的疾病。这是所有女性都必须经历的正常情况。更年期是指女性停止月经的阶段,因此女性的荷尔蒙可能会失衡。可怕的症状例如潮热、失眠、易怒、性欲低下、心跳加速和容易发怒。

如果您的症状很严重并且需要就医,一些医生可能会建议您使用激素替代疗法 (HRT) 作为治疗更年期不良症状的一种治疗方法,例如大量出汗、潮热和失眠。然而,HRT 并不适合每一位女士,尤其是那些患有癌症、肝脏问题、中风、心脏病等其他疾病的女士。使用 HRT 治疗更年期症状也有负面影响。除了HRT,也有其他西药可以帮助缓解症状,但它们只能提供短期缓解。那么我们能做些什么来对抗更年期呢?

2. 海藻(藻类)钙:: Modern science has established that estrogen deficiency is also an important factor for the high risk of osteoporosis in elderly women. Often, osteoporosis does not come with any obvious symptoms. Thus, it is even more vital to take care of our bones, even if we do not experience any bone or joint pain. Algae or seaweed calcium is a unique form of calcium extracted from non-rock source. This plant-based calcium is friendly to the body and contains much more trace minerals than the typical traditional rock-type calcium. It is also more easily absorbed into our body since the calcium and minerals are plant-based. As the chemical composition of the seaweed is more similar to the mineral composition in our human bones both in variety and quantity, it is much easier for our body to break down and absorb the desired nutrients into our bone structure.

TCM herbs can help to improve our body blood circulation and nourish the skin complexion. Popular herbs like Dang Gui and Chai Hu are included to regulate the functions of our liver and promote the smooth flow of QI and blood in our bodies. A good combination of TCM herbs can help make sure the body’s yin-yang is kept in good balance!
