#2 Food for Menopause Relief: Whole Grains
The best grains for menopausal women are oats, corn, barley, millet, buckwheat, brown rice, quinoa, and amaranth. Many whole grains are excellent sources of phytoestrogens because they contain lignans, a material that is used to form the plant cell wall. Lignans, like isoflavones, are mildly estrogenic and provide support for women deficient in estrogen who are suffering from hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, and other effects of menopause.
