Nice video one thing I can say that helped with hot flashes was eliminating all dairy unless it was organic also meat has to be organic it was so precise that as soon as I ate at a restaurant or at a friend’s house I that night the hot flashes would be unbearable. But a few days of no hormone dairy or meat almost no flashes. Ashwaganda helped too❤️🙏
Thanks so much. I am now 61 yrs young. Had Hysterectomy at 32 (after birth of 2nd premie), due to serious issues. Have Systemic Lupus, causing Cardiomyopathy... damage from yrs of SLE causing stage 3 CKD, and CHF, and also have RA and the list goes on!!! Too many organ and joint surgeries to count! Anyway had really hard time with Menopause espec being so young after Hysterectomy. I couldnt go on Hormone repl cuz Ive had 2 DVT's and positive Anticardiolipin...Had severe hot flashes for yrs. I went on Black Cohosh as suggested by my PCP because of how I cant take Hormone Repl Therapy, and it helps me immensely! The hot flashes diminished! It is a Godsent for me! Ive been eating this diet your explaining for a few yrs, and I maintain 120 lbs. It works! Dont get me wrong, I love candy! But when I eat my parfaits with fresh berries and nuts I feel like im eating desert and it satisfies me. Im not saying I never cheat...you have to cheat sometimes, and reward yourself, but put it into perspective! Ive recently had 4 major reconstructive jount replacement surgeries of both hands from damage of a double wammy having SLE & RA damage! Just because my hand are recouping doesnt mean my legs arent working! So i keep moving! I Keep walking....I keep moving and exercising with my legs, and for me, thats been the key to this whole issue. Keep moving and exercising, and eat right for your body, and health issues, and you will feel better, and look better too. I promise! Age is not a punishment! It is a reward for those years well spent that we have served those we love. Sit back and enjoy life. No one at 65 is going to look like they are 25! Those were years I served and earned with respect, and I have become friends with them. Society makes aging a defecit....and its a reward for the years Ive spent. Learn to embrace and enjoy the process!

Nutrition tip (for everyone) and message for Dr. Mary Caire Haver: For anyone who says they don't like kale, I have a way for you to eat it that brings out all the best! I am not a big fan of kale salads because the dressing is always loaded with salt, sugar, and fat and/or the kale always seems bitter. If you chop up your kale and drop it into soup, stew, or chili, it is a game changer! Either put it in your soup, stew, or chili before reheating it or put it in your already hot soup, stew, or chili, then let it sit for 30 seconds to 1 minute so the heat can do its thing, and WOW! It's INCREDIBLE! It turns the kale sweeter/delicate and it’s super delicious! DON’T put the kale in prior to cooking where it is cooked for an extended period of time and it gets cooked down to where it kills the nutritional value. It only needs a short time, just long enough to warm it up to your desired temperature, which keeps the nutritional value intact. P.S. Dr. Mary Claire Haver, please do research into veganism/vegetarianism too for patients like me. I don't eat animal products now and I’ve never been this healthy in my entire life! I’m going to be 53 and even though I never eat animal flesh and only VERY rarely will I relent and eat eggs or dairy, and I feel like I’m in my early 20s again! I went vegan over 3 years ago after watching The Game Changers, Cowspiracy, What the Health?, and Dominion and the changes in me have been too profound to ignore! I dropped a lot of weight and maintain it with ease (my jeans were 16s and 18s and now they are 4s and 6s). All of my joint and muscle pain stopped (when I eat dairy or eggs, it returns). My skin cleared up (I had perfect skin in my youth, so getting pimples was a shock!). I no longer have debilitating heartburn or acid reflux anymore (or take the meds to combat the effects that are a lie and only provide short-term relief and some have detrimental side effects to our bones/health)! And there is EVEN MORE AWESOMENESS with my switch to veganism! I feel SO AMAZING! I’ve had co-workers and others, including a nurse at my surgery, think I was much younger (they have guessed me to be anywhere from 26 to 36!🙀)! I’m super active, mobile, and have off-the-charts energy now! When we get our nutrients from plants, we cut out the middleman which are the animals. I replicate all animal-based recipes I love by swapping plant-based ingredients for the meat like my plant-based Chicken Chili Verde! I eat a much larger variety of food and can’t believe how amazing I feel. These plant-based ingredients can be found in LOTS of food like non-dairy yogurt which I eat daily too. I don’t feel deprived at all and all of my health markers are EXCELLENT! I even got my very first normal hemoglobin levels in my entire life after going vegan and it was 13.1! I’m also wonderfully regular in the bathroom department even with being on meds that cause constpation! WOOHOO! Along with fresh, organic fruits and vegetables, I make sure my diet includes probiotics, prebiotics, and antivirals every day. After “surviving the unsurvivable” including 2.1 hemoglobin that put me in a coma in ICU, 10 years on my death bed because we couldn't figure out why my hemoglobin was regularly in the 4s and 5s even though I was having regular iron infusions/blood transfusions, and my death while in the hospital when I was awaiting the arrival of 4 bags of blood for transfusions, so I know what poor health feels like. I was so sick, I was a fall risk and I could pass out OR die due to such low hemoglobin levels. l couldn't do anything including cooking, cleaning, showering while standing, walking my dogs, driving a car, shopping, and more! My life was over as I rotted away in my home. We found the source of the hemoglobin loss after I died and was revived when my congenital hiatal hernia and esophageal ulcer were surgically fixed. My hiatal hernia was oozing into my abdominal cavity, so the endless tests (colonoscopies, EGDs, pill camera test, CT scans, MRIs, etc.) and endless specialists could not find it. After surviving the unsurvivable and losing 10 years, I was determined to live my best, healthiest life and I have been educating myself ever since. I don't have any menopausal females in my life, so I had no idea how to navigate this stage of life. Finding you, Dr. Mary Claire Haver, was the final piece to my health puzzle and I couldn't be more grateful! My Estradiol patch and micronized progestin have been a wonderful addition! Thank you for all you do for us women so that we don't suffer as our foremothers did, Dr. Mary Claire Haver! 💜😽💋💋💋
I love Spinach, Collards, Mustard Greens, Romaine Lettuce, avacados Love salmon, fish, Love Lemons, Limes Bulgarian Yogurt tastes tart. I sprinkled nuts on it. Steaks, Eggs, fresh calf liver, shrimp, Broccoli,
This is basically my whole diet I’m 45 now I have mean symptoms and I was really excited about this video I’ve always been really thin and never had a problem with weight gain suddenly in the last year I have cellulite on my stomach and a pretty good tummy but like I said the foods you mentioned here is what I’ve lived on for at least the last decade ??!!
I sure wish your channel existed when I was menopausal. What a lonely very depressing time. Thank God it’s over- I really hope women take advantage of your support🙏🏽
This is very interesting. When I turned 40, surprisingly I started craving Avocado 🥑 of which I never craved before. On average I eat an avocado a day and NEVER had a taste for it. After avocado, I started noticing that I also craved nuts 🥜 and Greek yogurt. The other bits I have to work on, but I believe the body tells you what it needs because I continue to be shocked that I have gravitated towards these foods. It’s like when I turned 40, something changed. Without any attempt to diet. This makes me happy to hear.
I am lactose intolerant and I live in a small town. None of my grocery stores carry DF yogurt, so I make my own in my Instapot. I use cultures and westlife soy milk. I make yogurt weekly! It's delicious. I sweeten it with stevia for a parfait or I leave it unsweetened and use it like sour cream for taco salads. It is a game changer for my gut, as I eat it every day. I get soy, protein and probiotics!
Do you have any exact information on what they feed the farmed salmon I literally just sent off an email earlier to a Tasmanian company asking that question
It's very difficult to get healthy foods (especially leafy greens, which take forever to eat) when you work 12-hour shifts, have to eat 2 meals at work, and have 10-15 minutes to eat. I'm all about the citrus, nuts, avocado, and greek yogurt, though!
Don't forget arugula as a leary green! In a smoothie recipe, I substitute arugula and italian parsley for spinach or kale. Full of vitamin C and easy to grow yourself.
Great info. For vegans, is plain, unsweetened yogurt just as good? I eat Brussels sprouts every day also. I believe they are high in omega 3s. Do you have any suggestions for chronic joint and muscle pain? Thanks
HI! I'm 75 are you moving enough.sometimes its hard to get started but you will be glad you did. I stared with ballroon dance lessons and getting a 3 wheel bike that I love :) connie x
M. Bishop- For a vegan diet I’d suggest not using a vegan yogurt. The main benefit from it would be the probiotic. Vegan yogurts are typically fairly low in protein and tend to taste kinda gross unless they’re highly sweetened. You don’t want to add sugar to your foods. Do Include lots of tofu, tempeh, mushrooms, seaweed, hemp seeds, quinoa, avocado, chia seeds, walnuts, legumes, veggies, and fruits. These foods provide fiber, vitamins, minerals, and photo chemicals. Tofu, tempeh, hemp, and quinoa are complete proteins. Try to keep your carbohydrate and protein balanced. Most vegan diets are high in carbohydrate which can lead to insulin resistance, particularly as we age. Hope that helps.
I wouldn't eat salmon because of bad farming. Depends on we're it's from. I eat trout, cod, sea bass and take krill oil for omega 3. Flax seeds in boild water take in the morning is good too. Combined vegetable, seeds and animal fats is better than just eating animal fat. Advocardos and oil of evening primrose is good if you cant get anything else in your diet like fish protein and oils.
I do not like plain Greek yogurt, but I will put it in a smoothie-it’s the only way to get it down. I live in MN and we get nearly no sunshine during the winter. If we do get it, the temp is even colder on those days that no one wants to go outside. (Why do I live here?) For this reason, we northerners depend on the citrus fruits which are in season during the winter months and they taste better during this time. Oranges during the summer are very bland and ridiculously expensive. I wonder what I could hide avocados in. I’m not a fan of those either. 🧐
In menopause and getting such fatigue and migraines. I take 350 mg of magnesium glycinate every night for years now. Used to help me keep migraines at bay...not so much now. Suggestions anyone?
I have been taking evening primrose oil for last 3 months following a bout of migraines thanks to perimenapause and its really made a difference. Apparently b vitamins help too.
👋 just found your channel & 1st video I’ve watched of yours 👍 I eat mostly plant 🌱 based,but have been adding a fish dish once week & the recipe I do has salmon 🐟 spinach 🍃 & orange 🍊 dressing 😆 so I just need to make a coconut 🥥 yogurt 🍦 avocado 🥑 nut 🥜 pudding & I’m done ✅ 😉
I am so very frustrated. I am histamine intolerant and post menopausal. 5 out of 6 on your list are extremely high in histamine. I just dont know what to eat anymore to help my menopause.
I had this. I suddenly had terrible seasonal allergies at age 45 too. Your histamine bucket is overflowing and soon gut dysbiosis may start aka Leaky Gut etc, which will cause malabsorption and eventually your gut won't absorb iron making you anemic, Vitamin A making your skin too crepey,etc. Omit gluten, all dairy, cosmetic chemicals, mold in your home, coffee (mold), corn tortillas/chips/high fructose corn syrup(mold), only eat NONGMO foods (no pesticides), no booze, choose grass fed meats as other CAFO meat is fed corn, lower egg consumption and buy pasture raised organic eggs only. Increase coconut for the gut. Research Biocidin. Clean out your lymph (700 miles of waste system) with brushing/lymph massages/trampoline. EXERCISE to move lymph. Have DandyBlend instead of coffee with coconut cream diluted with water. Research adaptogens as surely your cortisol is off the chart. Cortisol is the FAT STORING HORMONE. Get cortisol level checked. Carpathia Collective in Dallas cured me! Research FODMAPS. and watch this but know that cooking reduces some lectins ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mjQZCCiV6iA.html
2 different medical teams of dieticians/nutritionists, keto, no carb, low carb, vegan, Macro counting, no fat, eat 6 times a day, eat 3 times a day, cardio 7 days, weight training no cardio...UGHHHHHH.....I'm ready for someone who UNDERSTANDS what this is like!! At 58 and a half...I am up 30 lbs with regular exercise and weights...nothing has worked to get the scale down. Thank you, I'm giving it a try!
I'm allergic to fish, so what could I replace the salmon with that will have the same positive effect? Living in Spain, the other foods are already a staple part of my diet.
Sadly not Salmon daily, it is filled with mercury, so you should only have it about twice a week. This is true with all fish now, and farmed fish is the worst.
just came across your Tictoc and I love your advices. I have osteoporosis and have kidney stones 5t07 mm and I don't know what I should eat. Help me please doctor! Thank you so much in advance
I am on breast cancer anti-estrogen pills and getting terrible hot flashes with vomiting. Will this diet help reduce some of these terrible, terrible side effects?
I have chronic urticaria and cannot eat any of the foods mentioned as they cause the urticaria to worsen. I wish someone would do a video for people like me😢
Oh how awful 😞 Low histamine diet and Assisting the liver to filter optimally you best look at and gut health…,. Antibiotics are not your friend . For immediate non toxic relief most people find chickweed gel or cream wonderful . There’s a few anti histamine supplements u can take. Intermittent fasting makes it easy to avoid any food triggers .
Thanks so much for your videos! Could you comment on high cholesterol issues…? My doctor is soooo worried about my level, but I’m some what on keto and have lost weight since…
Take omega 3 , milk thistle hi strength, choline , inositol so your liver breaks down excess cholesterol. If your not pre diabetic and your diet is anti inflammatory with omega krill oil supplements one doesn’t usually have to worry a lot . Oh add enough fibre as doc says … fibre binds and mops up the cholesterol and takes it out of the body . Kyolic garlic capsules x 2 for 12 weeks Has been shown to help blood pressure and cholesterol
@david, GARALIC brought my cholesterol down. Larry King recommended it back in the 1990's, I tried it for 3 months & it did the trick. If the #s start to rise, back on it I go. Not hard to swallow, no after taste. Been years under control.
Im allergic to citrus, what is a good alternative? I am also gluten intolerant, so I am fighting through trying to stay healthy when purchasing groceries. It’s maddening where they hide gluten in!
since you have celiac disease, it is important that you work directly with a registered dietician who specializes in your disease! Talk to your gastroenterologist for a recommendation.
Don’t eat bread rolls pancakes crackers Stick to rice oats buckwheat nonGMO corn AND the beautiful starchy vegs! Rutabagas parsnips squashes-pumpkins turnips sweet potatoes beets -all full of much more nutrition than grains
no one should eat dairy. humans lose the enzyme to digest it and breast milk after age three. coconut yogurt or pili nut like LAVVA is amazing!! Coconut is better for gut health too! Just make low sugar choices.
Eating meat or fish isn't required for The Galveston Diet. In fact, there are two weeks of vegetarian meal plans provided as part of the program. Feel free to check it out at www.galvestondiet.com
