Fit and Healthy Lifestyle

One of the best ways to control hot flashes
naturally is to watch what you are eating. By being proactive and not
eating foods that trigger a hot flash, you can avoid many of them from
occurring. Avoid alcohol and drinks that are caffeinated. Chocolate is
a hidden source of caffeine, so it is also good to avoid the sweet
treat. Spicy foods can bring on a hot flush as well as hot drinks such
as coffee and tea. Another way to prevent hot flashes is to avoid
external sources of heat. Taking really hot showers and baths is a
surefire way to send your body’s thermostat haywire and produce a hot
flash. Jacuzzis, saunas, and steam rooms should also be off limits to
menopausal women.
