Phytoestrogens against fatty deposits! Losing weight after 40 is now easy.

At the age of 40-45 years, a woman’s body undergoes rapid changes. It seems that a month ago everything was fine, and suddenly there were fat folds on the sides and under the arms.





In fact, nobody will be able to avoid this fate, even athletes who have devoted their entire adult life to sports. Fat begins to be unevenly redistributed throughout the body due to a number of factors.

Health, and especially the beauty of a woman, directly depends on the concentration of sex hormones. Of these, the leading role is played by estrogens, which are called the main female hormones.





The production of these hormones decreases significantly after 40 years and almost stops after 50 years with the onset of menopause. It is at this age that most women begin to contact various specialists about increased blood pressure, joint pain and problems with excess weight.





The explanation is simple. The female body, preparing for menopause, is rebuilt under it, and hormonal changes redistribute subcutaneous fat with an increase in its amount. Such an increase in fat is required by the body, since when the ovaries reduce the production of sex hormones (estrogen), this function is taken over by adipose tissue.

Phytoestrogens are components of plant origin, similar in their functions to estrogens, which are produced in the female body naturally. Although phytoestrogens are not a product of the human endocrine system, they act on the same cellular receptors as human estrogens.

Eating foods containing phytoestrogens allows women to reduce the manifestation of symptoms characteristic of the postmenopausal period.

    In the countries of Southeast Asia, a large amount of soybeans are traditionally used for food. Conclusions were made about the connection of high health indicators with soybean consumption. The debate is still ongoing. However, soy is really rich in isoflavones - genistein and daizein, and its sprouts - glycitein.

    Soybeans and nuts, textured vegetarian protein, tofu, soy milk and soy yogurt, fermented tempe soy drink, miso soup, soy protein powder - all contain plant-estrogens, which for certain indications is very useful to include in the daily diet.




  2. Flax seeds
    They contain ligans – substances that bind to cell receptors and stimulate certain biochemical reactions. There have been no studies on the long-term use of phytohormones, but they are safe for everyone except pregnant women. Flax seeds are especially indicated during menopause.


  3. Hop bumps
    They contain flavonoids that bind to estradiol receptors (one of the estrogen) and have a similar effect. After 40 years, hop cones are prescribed to relieve the symptoms of menopause.


  4. Milk and dairy products
    Sour cream, cottage cheese, cheese - contain phytoestrogens of herbs, which cows ate. Cheese with mold has a greater amount of phytoestrogens due to the fungus, which further enriches the product with its own hormone-like substances.
  5. Licorice roots naked
    They contain isoflavones and steroids. They have a positive effect on the female body during menopause, normalize the liver.
