Results of recent study suggest that a diet change should be considered as a first-line treatment for troublesome vasomotor symptoms, including night sweats and hot flashes. menopause MedTwitter
Women eating a reduced-fat vegan diet combined with a daily serving of soybeans experienced a 78% reduction in frequency of menopausal hot flashes over 12 weeks, in a small, nonblinded, randomized-controlled trial.
But, while"the findings from this very small study complement everything we know about the benefits of an excellent diet and the health benefits of soy," they should be interpreted with some caution, commented Susan Reed, MD, president of the North AmericanSociety, and associate program director of the women's reproductive research program at the University of Washington, Seattle.
Participants in the intervention group were asked to avoid animal-derived foods, minimize their use of oils and fatty foods such as nuts and avocados, and include half a cup of cooked soybeans daily in their diets. They were also offered 1-hour virtual group meetings each week, in which a registered dietitian or research staff provided information on food preparation and managing common dietary challenges.
