I'm only 34 but I wanted to make sure I did all I could to avoid menopause symptoms. Going plant-based I've been able to reverse my diabetes, gone down 4 pants sizes, lost and kept off 70lbs, no more headaches, mood swings or GI upset! Thank you for sharing this with the world!
I suffered from hot flushes throughout my life and they've disappeared completely since switching to a whole food plant diet. I have no menopausal symptoms at all, quite the opposite, I am healthier and slimmer and more energetic than ever, and no mental fog either!
Thats awesome, u go girl 🎉. Wld love to know what you're doing if u wouldnt mind .... My periods ended over 3 yrs ago & i still get hot flushes, night sweats, low moods, irritability & now have started wth creaky joints, neck etc, which worries me. Not fair! I'm 59, and vegan. Tks, take care, hugs
@@JS-zn1zp Thank you soooo much for that, will definitely give it a try, v kind of u to help. I know of Brooke Goldner, will check her out again. Tks. Hugs
I know this comment is 2 years ago and I hope you're doing well, but I wanted to say SAME. I'm 37 and have been having hot flashes since 31. It's so severely affected my daily life. I've periodically gone plant based, but never as long term as I've been plant based/vegan now. I can't believe the change. I really don't get hot flashes at all anymore. If I have gotten a sense of one coming on, which is rare, it's as gone as quickly as it came.
I have been juicing fruit and vegetables. I have only had 2-3 hot flashes (without sweating) in the last week! I had been suffering with up to 8 hot flashes a day for 3 months. It also stopped the heart palpitations which were brought on by the hot flashes. Worth a try!
I was miserable and ready to try anything. I’ve been doing this for only 4 days and already seeing a reduction in my hot flashes. I think a Nobel prize is in order! 🥵👀😁 Thank you!!!
I experienced the same results when I reduced my dietary fat - my hot flashes went away...completely! When I eat too much avocado or nuts/seeds, they return. Bottom line, if you suffer from hot flashes (and other menopause symptoms) it's worth experimenting with your fat consumption. Praying it'll help someone :)
Thankyou for saying that. I thought he was crazy, lol. I probably get more "healthy" fats than anything else in my diet (trying to eat healthy, which am starting to get confused about what that is since menopause), and feeling like the hot flashes are killing me sometimes. You saying that is making me go and re-listen. Thankyou. Blessings!
Thank you for sharing your experience. I could not figure out why I was experiencing so much night sweats at night ..now I know! Because I would eat a few nuts before bed.
I have found the same thing. Now soy helps but it has some fat in it. So I eat it but a little here and there in a day so that the fat does not cause hot flashes. It seems to work.
I still get hot flashes after 23 years post menopause. My doctor says it may never end for me. I have been vegan for over 2 years and very low fat (small ant of nuts and seeds daily), no added oils, no highly processed food, except on a rare occasion. I do eat some soy in the form of edamame, tofu, tempeh and soy curls. Thanks for the information, Dr Barnard and Chuck!
@@eatplantsloveanimals The immature beans are great, just not as beneficial in this aspect. The mature beans have a lot more of what you need to affect hormone imbalances.
7:28 - Doc is explaining parchment paper like this video is for men too!!! 🤣🤣 Thank you for all your info!!! It’s helped me in in two days by cutting them in half already!! I was already plant based for three years but I wasn’t eating soy daily. I’m on day 4 of tempeh and also soy beans. Drastically improved so far.
A good hack for peanut butter is the powdered variety; I use PB2. You use 2 TB with water (more or less depending on the consistency you like) and it’s only 1.5g of fat (2%). So easy and tasty. I use it all the time in smoothies and on oatmeal.
I use powdered PB as well! (The one I find at Costco.) I’ll mix it with lime juice, a bit of vegan “no-fish” sauce or coconut aminos, and sriracha sauce. It’s great on grain bowls.
I’ve come up with some wonderful ways to eat the soybeans, I put them in my tofu scramble for breakfast, I use about 1/4 cup soybeans with frozen berries, banana and lemon juice and Ceylon cinnamon and water mixed in my nutribullet will make an amazing smoothie,and one of my favorites is putting the soybeans in my air fryer for about 8 minutes at 375 degrees for a crunchy snack. I was wondering if others would share their favorite ways to use cooked soybeans.
I’ve been doing a whole food, plant-based diet since June 1 and I can see a huge difference. I started it as part of a Daniel Fast and kept it going because I felt so good while doing it. I have learned a new way to cook that is fun and maximizes use of the local Farmer’s Markets, have lost 10 lbs of fluff (I’m generally thin) and have not had one hot flash or night sweat since starting the diet. Thank you for your science-based info! It’s a game changer. I’m gently introducing this to my family and they are coming around more slowly, yet I’m hopeful they will at least reduce the amount of processed and animal products they consume.
Im thinking soybean hummus would be good too 😇 I always follow Dr Barnards advices. Best to follow experts guidance. Thank you so much for this very informative video.
Body in Balance is a great book and a very interesting read. Thank you so much Dr Barnard 💐💖 I started to have oatmeal with soy milk in the mornings again and in a few days the hot flashes stopped 🥳
I’m vegan. And I started Menopause at 38 years old. I only had one hot flash in 11 years. That’s it nothing else. No problems at all. My mother on the other hand ate fried foods. Fatty meats and smoked. And she suffered thru menopause…
Wow. The best video ever. I’m vegan for the last 7 years, 50% raw very little processed, no sugar little berries & obese with huge belly. I’m giving up. But having nuts and delicious tortilla. Each tortilla is 8 gr of fat. Almond Yogurt with 10 gr of fat. I love with it pecans. I’ll try to get it down to 3 gr of fat. Love you Dr. Bernard. 🙏🏻♾💙🌟💎😇
I am a testimony of this. Other than my stomach palpitations I would not know I am on menopause. And this I owe it to a vegan diet. What I have learned is that I have to eat slow and with small portions and to not drink fluids with my meal because they dilute the juices that help to digest my food. Drinking fluids with food can give you an upset stomach h. Thanks for this video.
Recap whole plant based diet,no fat.soya beans are very versatile ,providing organic.It is better to soak soyabeans overnight and you can take the shells out .After cooking in instant pot then put it in soup maker ,add celery sticks ,one onion,gloves of garlic,spices ,delecious soup after 21 minutes .In instant pot press multigrain takes 40 minutes.It is important to soak all types of beans and legumes,change water many times,or ven sprout to reduce anti nutrients in plant diet which is the plant immune system proper predation is essential and no short cutting.
Really quality information, always, and the high quality studies and everything else the PCRM does are a great service to everyone, and are helping to change mainstream awareness. Thank you.
I’ve tried the soybeans 40 minutes in the Instant Pot both rinsed but not soaked overnight AND, soaked overnight. The overnighted soaked beans are completely tender, still did the 40 minutes of time with the soaked beans but not as much water is then required, just cover the beans with the water then.
I have been watching this video for a while .. it is time to say good by to hot flash and get my good night sleep back. I have to invest in me today ! thank you.
I am lucky in that here in my country soy products like tempeh, tofu and soy milk are easily available and consumed daily by most people (as opposed to the more expensive meat or chicken)
For me cooking without oil has taken practice and I had to get used to the different taste of the food without oil - kinda like something was missing. My family hated it at first. It's not easy for some of us.
The only things not in a plant based diet are meats, fish, shellfish, dairy, eggs, and possibly honey. That leaves every other edible thing in the world. Sooooo not limited.
I'm vegan and have 2 friends also in menopause who are vegan and none of us have hot flashes. We wondered if it was the soy. But to be honest I only eat tofu and that's occasionally.
I feel too hot most the time, even from a glass of water. I have some fears about eating tofu as I read that it can cause stones in the kidneys which I have usually, what do you think about it? I noticed some months ago how little oil or fats I was eating and was trying to add more like in my salads, as I am not fat and need lots of energy to ride my bicycle for 30 minutes to an hour to schools. I felt more enrgy from more pasta or noodles. I was wondering what to eat and with not too much preparation. I live in Vietnam. Any advice? I will try this. And I thought that avocados were helping for menopause as I read that.
When soaking soybeans overnight (for stoveop method), should they be covered? Also, when cooking soybeans on the stovetop, should they be uncovered while boiling them?
Trying to find a suitable diet has been challenging for me. At 50 I'm having some menopausal symptoms, however I also have Hashimoto's and need to avoid some of the key things that you recommened, such as soy, grains, and legumes, as well as dairy. What are my options if in addition to that I have to avoid all animal products and fats? Eating lots of dry, bland vegetables at every meal for the rest of my life?
KatarinaS. - That's a great question and I've wondered about this too. If you have diet restrictions and want to go vegan it looks like just eating veggies is all that's left. It makes no sense. Wish this would be addressed.
I could so be vegan and all that, and I want to be, however whenever I eat soy i have a reaction about 2-3 days later where I get itchy eyes and sometimes blepharitis. But I love it and it fills me up, so bummed.
Dr Barnard… does the positive effect last a short while after the 3 week trial? Can a person reincorporate ,say for example, avocado in week for and then remove it in week 5? I just can’t imagine NEVER eating avocado again. It is one of my staple fruits.🤷🏽♀️
Check out Chipotle. Almost everything including the rice has oil on it besides being very high in salt. The veggies are swimming in oil. I don't know about the corn,but I consider everything there to be suspicious.
I am a cancer survivor and have been suffering from severe hot flashes for 13 + years, I have been told by my doctors never to have soybeans products. Next, I have been on a vegan diet for a year, lost weight, I feel great but the hot flashes are depressing. I also tried some medications that have been prescribed by my doctor for antidepressants that have shown to reduce hot flashes, and none worked. The side effects were worse for me, yet hot flashes continued. What else can I do?
@@Cfrederick-jarrett7881 I'm sorry for all you have been through. I don't know much about breast cancer but I did hear a US oncologist interviewed on an excellent podcast called My Menopause Doctor. This podcast is by a wonderful UK doctor ( Dr Louise Newson ) that is an advocate for women going through menopause and hrt. She has a few episodes focusing on breast cancer & menopause. Dr Avrum Bluming ( oncologist )has written a book called Oestrogen Matters. His wife actually got breast cancer but after treatment she is now safely taking hrt. I am not saying this is what you should do or even what you can do. But it would be worth listening to the podcast, particularly when Dr Louise Newson interviews Dr Avrum Bluming and they discuss breast cancer and menopause extensively and try to dispell some myths. Reading Dr Avrum Bluming's book Oestrogen Matters might be worth a read to. Good luck on your journey 🌻
I have suffered from menopause symptoms since i was taken off premarin because I got estrogen receptive breast cancer. Since 2007 I have gained about 45 lbs, dont sleep, if I do I wake up drenched. So my husband & I started plant based diet in dec 2021. I gave lost 20 lbs which is great but no change in menopause symptoms. I do not have increased energy like my spouse. I guess I will try the soybeans, dont know what else to do. Help...drenched
Please consider watching Menopause Taylor. I can't believe the doctors aren't helping you manage these symptoms! There are other medications that can help that aren't estrogen based. I'm on clonidine for blood pressure and it can help decrease the intensity. th-cam.com/play/PLOUBdLFwUtyYimWltwfsEQneVYjIaMQH-.html
Try the soy beans. Very important that is all plant diet with 3 grams of fat per serving. I take black cohosh supplements and bought the Chilli sleep pad. I sleep well because you can control the temperature of your bed. I keep my Chilli sleep pad at 62. It goes as low as 55 degrees. Try it. Good luck.
I’m nearing 48 and I (knock on wood) have not found hot flashes to be my main perimenopausal problem in the least and I’ve had (other) symptoms starting since 42. I’ve noticed things ramping up in this past year. I have graves and medically induced hypothyroid and have been told that soy interferes with the synthroid that I take.
Also, in attempts to maintain my 5’2” 100”lb frame, I walk 4 miles a day and cut my fat intake considerably to accommodate any body changes and fat redistribution.
Love you Dr Barnard! Great one tks Chuck, hugs .... Pse can you do a video on menopause depression ~ i see a few women have asked .... Most women are told to eat more of the good fats during menopause, but i will try yr approach & see. Another question : Actress Kristen Bell, who is vegan, struggles wth anxiety & depression ~ why is this ?? Tks guys 😘
@@michellehashish5341 I jst wondered because her being an actress she shld have the best options available to sort this ? Surely a healthy balanced vegan diet shld sort anxiety & depression ?
I know the focus of this show is menopause but to Chuck’s comments don’t ignore the very real effects of the male version andropause which isn’t talked about enough.
Ok so, let's say i have no oils, no vegan processed foods( aside tofu and tempeh) , no nuts, no avocado. BUT i do have organic soy, flax and chia seeds. Am i okay? I can't take away all fats. Please someone answer me, thank you!
You can try. If it helps with reducing or eliminating your hot flashes. It’s sound healthy. I was part of the research. We had to eat under 3 grams of fat per serving. No oils, no nuts. It works.
@@claudiahategan4679 Thanks, fantastic! I'm worried about the Omega-3 though. It's hard to reach the target with just flax...I'm allergic to algae, so i can't take any supplements.
I lent my book The Cheese Trap - to a friend, she said she didn't eat much beef or chicken - but did eat Game meat - I said all meat is non fiber and full of saturated fat and cholestrol - she said no game meat (elk, deer, bear) only has fat on the out side of the meat and that is cut off. really ??????
the only ones i can find in cans are the 'black' soybeans. i'm going to try those before i buy the dried yellow ones. in the first video they recommended cooking them in an instapot, to greatly reduce cooking time. go figure, that's the one kitchen gadget i don't have yet 😊
No. What you should do is soak them for 24 hours, in water with some apple cider vinegar, then cook them. Of course if you have a pressure cooker it's going to be even faster, if not just cook them in boiling water. The soaking will shorten the cooking time.
When it comes to menopause symptoms, see a study by Lei with the title "The association between soy isoflavone intake and menopausal symptoms after breast cancer diagnosis: a prospective longitudinal cohort study on Chinese breast cancer patients." The findings were negative (soy did not relieve the symptoms). Another study has similar findings: "There was no evidence that soy food consumption reduced MPS among breast cancer patients. High soy intake may increase the prevalence of hotflashes among premenopausal patients. Our study suggests that soy acts as an estrogen antagonist in breast cancer patients." (see "Soy intake in association with menopausal symptoms during the first 6 and 36 months after breast cancer diagnosis" by Dorjgochoo).
Sophia El awad - First, I want to recommend Dr. Eric Berg's TH-cam channel. He is one of the best and has helped thousands of people all over the world. His research is not funded by Big Pharma, Big Tech, the Soybean Industry, or the Sugar Industry. He has integrity and his research is SOLID. My first question here is: Why are they advocating soy when the science has shown for a very long time that we should not consume soy unless it has been FERMENTED and non-GMO. This is the way the Japanese have always consumed it. The main thing with menopause is avoiding SUGAR & GRAINS, eating lots of steamed cruciferous veggies (not raw, in order to protect the thyroid), Wild Sockeye Salmon, Organic Grass-fed meats, Organic Pastured Eggs, Organic Pastured Butter, Filtered Water with Lemon or Apple Cider Vinegar, (fluoride removed by water filter because fluoride destroys the thyroid, lowers IQ), etc. Only Food-Based Supplements like B Complex - not synthetic vitamins which are harmful and actually cause deficiency, Daily Walk Outdoors - not excessive exercise, which releases too much cortisol (the stress hormone). *The reason it is important to only eat 100% Grass-fed animal foods like butter, beef, chicken, is because the fat from animals that have been allowed to roam freely outdoors and eat nutritious grasses, contain Omega 3, similar to salmon, and Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) which is proven to reduce belly (visceral fat). Our brain needs these good fats to function well ~ especially during menopause. By the way, the isoflavones found in soy beans can also be found in all legumes, but legumes and grains contain anti-nutrients like phytic acid which block the absorption of vital trace minerals such as zinc, unles they have been fermented or at the very least, soaked at least 24 hours - changing the water a few times prior to cooking. Knowing this info has been a game changer for me at 65. Hope this helps someone out there.
@@smudge8882 if you replace the oils with "something equivalent in calories" that "something" could be the wrong food that triggers menopausal symtoms. The main thing to avoid is SUGAR and GRAINS which deplete nutrients and harm our hormonal balance. Good fats from Wild Fish, Olive Oil, Butter, Pastured Eggs, Pastured Chicken, Grass-fed Beef, are wonderful for our hormonal and brain health. The key is only consuming fats from "healthy" animals - not tortured and confined animals that have been pumped with growth hormones, antibiotics, and gmo grains. Regarding fish, it should only be wild-caught and not farmed. Also, if we have enough Selenium in our body, it will help protect us from any mercury in the fish. Hope this helps.
@@margokerby1533 wow, thanks for sharing all your wisdom!! I'd love to get your take on veganism? I started eating that way end of February this year, I've lost 38 lbs and my mood is very stable and I'm at peace with my life now. I feel great and have a ton of energy. The only thing I have noticed is my eyesight seems not as well (need my readers more often) could be related to my new way of eating or the fact I just turned 49...? Who knows. One thing I do know is even if I wasn't vegan I don't think I could bite into another hamburger. Grosses me out 🤮
@@jenl1107 We can get beta carotene from veggies but hard to convert into the actual Vitamin A which our eyes need and is readily available in grass-fed butter, like Kerry Gold and Cod Liver Oil supplements. I recommend watching Dr. Eric Berg's TH-cam channel. His research is not funded by Big Ag, Big Pharma, the Soybean Industry, or the Sugar Industry. He has helped thousands of people all over the world. He talks about avoiding synthetic vitamins which can actually cause deficiencies, and only consuming food/plant based supplements. For vision, he also recommends BENFOTIAMINE which is the fat soluble form of the b vitamin, THIAMINE, which is normally water soluble and leaves the body quickly Sometimes you just have to supplement certain nutrients when you are vegan but the key is to make sure the supplements are coming from real food sources. Hope this helps!
Dr McDougall really helped me with this. I used his reset program based on the Starch Solution. Essentially 1/2 plate yellow and green veggies (I made that a salad with peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers...endless optios), starch such a rice, potatoes or corn and I'd add black beans or chicken peas because I found I liked that. Chelsea Mae and Healthy Emmie are also great wfpb resources on TH-cam. After a few weeks I noticed my weight started to drop, eventually my set point reset to 124 lbs! This was a few years ago and I'm still 124 lbs. I started menopause 2 yrs ago following Dr Barnard's advice. Awesome experience, wfpb was a game changer for me. One thing I did as well was get my blood work done and regular check ups with my doctor. Everyone is different but give this a try, it did work for me. Good luck!
@@ludicrousone8706 chef AJ says to a avoid soy products for maximum weight loss. I am having a hard time loosing weight too. I guess it has something be with menopause. Am I right?
Hi. Someone called JS had sent me a great msg, but i cant seem to find it on here anymore, but i do have a copy of it on my phone. I was hoping to chat to her again & ask if she has had any luck with menopausal insomnia ?
I had a total hysterectomy at the age of 38 and was put on Premarin afterward, I am now 53 and took myself off the Premarin should I be doing anything to ensure that I am not losing bone density?
Exercise, such as weight lifting, is key in preventing loss of bone density (and building strong bones). But do be mindful to execute the exercise in a safe way not to suffer from prolapse after hysterectomy. Also find out plant sources of calcium (like broccoli).
Can anyone please tell me how much grams is 0.5cup of cooked soy beans? As a European I find this measuring with cups very unprecise, especially with foods as bulky as beans. Thanks!
I used to feel the same. Checked, and a cup is basically 2,5 dl (2,4) so half a cup would be 1,25 dl. Dont know about weight though, but dl is pretty easy to measure.😊
Indeed Grateful ~ perhaps a Vitamin D deficiency. Recommend Dr. Eric Berg TH-cam channel. Solid research not funded by the soybean industry or Big Pharma.
@@Homesteadacrelot ~ Your attempt to discredit what I said and ridicule me with laughing emoji shows that I must be on to something that you don't want menopausal women to know. People reading this should wonder who you are working for. Regarding Keto, it is one of the very best things menopausal women can do, but that is only one component of the incredible info that Dr. Eric Berg has researched, and it has been a game changer for thousands of people around the world, including me.
@@margokerby1533 Dr Eric Berg is a chiropractor, not a real doctor. I have hashimotos thyroiditis and the only thing keto/low carb ( recommended by a naturopath ) gave me was high cholesterol and I felt like crap. Whole food plant based eating has restored my health and I am correcting my cholesterol issue. Do you work for the agri industry?? Is that why you're spamming here?
I was/am doing WFPB & low fat & low carb diet for 2 decades, but after my hysterectomy I still suffered severe meno symptoms. I began taking Vit E daily and all my symptoms resolved in a few days! I still struggle with weight loss even on strict OMAD & IF (one meal a day & intermittant fasting). Unfortunately, i cant do any soy, cohosh, or other estrogenics per my oncologist.
Right! Dr. Eric Berg has a wonderful TH-cam channel and he knows his stuff. I highly recommend him because everything he researches and teaches has helped thousands of people globally.
I can't eat soy because it sets my uterine fibroid off really bad. Is there an alternative. ATM I'm eating eggs & cheese because I can't have soy. They don't affect my fibroids. I have chronic fatigue from guillain barre syndrome now menopause I've been hit harder with fatigue and sweating which is uncontrollable. My neurologist went mad at me for being plantbased but I made a good recovery on it but he said I must adhere to omnivore diet but because I stick to plant based as much as I can he refuses to see me. Ended up with fear of nerve damage because of him and I can't have soy. They won't take fibroid out because I'm 54 past child bareing they said hysterectomy which I don't want!

Yes please!

I’m menopausal but I’m not overweight and I don’t have hot flashes. I have cold flashes and very sensitive nerves, it’s not a one size fits all!
About drynes there?

Maybe you can do one on foods for andropause. There seems to be an epidemic of grumpy old men with low testosterone.

I’m vegan. And I started Menopause at 38 years old. I only had one hot flash in 11 years. That’s it nothing else. No problems at all. My mother on the other hand ate fried foods. Fatty meats and smoked. And she suffered thru menopause…
Wow. The best video ever. I’m vegan for the last 7 years, 50% raw very little processed, no sugar little berries & obese with huge belly. I’m giving up. But having nuts and delicious tortilla. Each tortilla is 8 gr of fat. Almond Yogurt with 10 gr of fat. I love with it pecans. I’ll try to get it down to 3 gr of fat. Love you Dr. Bernard. 🙏🏻♾💙🌟💎😇
Have you tried Chem AJ recipies?
Eat more starches. Nutritious, filling and affordable.
Buy lower fat tortillas and eat more potatoes, rice and beans.
I am a testimony of this. Other than my stomach palpitations I would not know I am on menopause. And this I owe it to a vegan diet.
What I have learned is that I have to eat slow and with small portions and to not drink fluids with my meal because they dilute the juices that help to digest my food. Drinking fluids with food can give you an upset stomach h. Thanks for this video.
Excellent information as always 🙏🏼thank you
thank you so much for this great info
Recap whole plant based diet,no fat.soya beans are very versatile ,providing organic.It is better to soak soyabeans overnight and you can take the shells out .After cooking in instant pot then put it in soup maker ,add celery sticks ,one onion,gloves of garlic,spices ,delecious soup after 21 minutes .In instant pot press multigrain takes 40 minutes.It is important to soak all types of beans and legumes,change water many times,or ven sprout to reduce anti nutrients in plant diet which is the plant immune system proper predation is essential and no short cutting.
Really quality information, always, and the high quality studies and everything else the PCRM does are a great service to everyone, and are helping to change mainstream awareness. Thank you.
I’ve tried the soybeans 40 minutes in the Instant Pot both rinsed but not soaked overnight AND, soaked overnight. The overnighted soaked beans are completely tender, still did the 40 minutes of time with the soaked beans but not as much water is then required, just cover the beans with the water then.
I do keto high fat and lean meat since i do it i don't have hot flashes with low carb diet so 🤨maybe these tips are not for everybody?
Yup- Dr. Berg has some excellent information on that and menopause
What can I do about weight gain going through menopause eating in moderation but still gaining weight? Thank you.
I've found canned black organic soybeans, no salt added (Eden brand). Are those just as good for the hot flashes as the white ones you show here?
excited to try the recipies! Just ordered the book and beans👍
I have been watching this video for a while .. it is time to say good by to hot flash and get my good night sleep back.
I have to invest in me today ! thank you.
Thankyou so much for sharing 🙏
I am lucky in that here in my country soy products like tempeh, tofu and soy milk are easily available and consumed daily by most people (as opposed to the more expensive meat or chicken)
Awesome information. Thank you for sharing. ❤️🇨🇦
Thanks
Cool😊😇😘 Merci💯 what ever i eat i have pain and vomiting???
It's so easy to cook without oil.
Is it?
True. And so much tastier!!!
YESS!!!
For me cooking without oil has taken practice and I had to get used to the different taste of the food without oil - kinda like something was missing.
My family hated it at first. It's not easy for some of us.
I am sorry many dishes just dont taste right without oil. I use a little bit of oil and I am 54 with no hot flashes .
Insomnia! Anyone who has any help regarding insomnia, please tell me. I sleep three to four hours a nite and I’m constantly exhausted.
I don't eat legumes,carbs,etc and I focus on proteins and fats and never had hot flashes.
The only things not in a plant based diet are meats, fish, shellfish, dairy, eggs, and possibly honey. That leaves every other edible thing in the world. Sooooo not limited.
My hot flash triggers were, sugar, alcohol and caffeine.
I'm vegan and have 2 friends also in menopause who are vegan and none of us have hot flashes. We wondered if it was the soy. But to be honest I only eat tofu and that's occasionally.
@@totmirmis
My skin and hair looks better then ever.
I feel too hot most the time, even from a glass of water. I have some fears about eating tofu as I read that it can cause stones in the kidneys which I have usually, what do you think about it? I noticed some months ago how little oil or fats I was eating and was trying to add more like in my salads, as I am not fat and need lots of energy to ride my bicycle for 30 minutes to an hour to schools. I felt more enrgy from more pasta or noodles. I was wondering what to eat and with not too much preparation. I live in Vietnam. Any advice? I will try this. And I thought that avocados were helping for menopause as I read that.
When soaking soybeans overnight (for stoveop method), should they be covered? Also, when cooking soybeans on the stovetop, should they be uncovered while boiling them?
Thanks for the info! Is menopause an obstacle for weight loss?
Hello, yes! Its a hell.😂
Absolutely. For me anyway.
Trying to find a suitable diet has been challenging for me. At 50 I'm having some menopausal symptoms, however I also have Hashimoto's and need to avoid some of the key things that you recommened, such as soy, grains, and legumes, as well as dairy. What are my options if in addition to that I have to avoid all animal products and fats? Eating lots of dry, bland vegetables at every meal for the rest of my life?
KatarinaS. - That's a great question and I've wondered about this too. If you have diet restrictions and want to go vegan it looks like just eating veggies is all that's left. It makes no sense. Wish this would be addressed.
I could so be vegan and all that, and I want to be, however whenever I eat soy i have a reaction about 2-3 days later where I get itchy eyes and sometimes blepharitis. But I love it and it fills me up, so bummed.
Have you tried fermented or sprouted soy foods like tempeh? I've read that eating soy that way can circumvent some soy related issues.
@@stacym5135 thank you but Ive tried and no luck.
Dr Barnard… does the positive effect last a short while after the 3 week trial? Can a person reincorporate ,say for example, avocado in week for and then remove it in week 5? I just can’t imagine NEVER eating avocado again. It is one of my staple fruits.🤷🏽♀️
Check out Chipotle. Almost everything including the rice has oil on it besides being very high in salt. The veggies are swimming in oil. I don't know about the corn,but I consider everything there to be suspicious.
so true😬
Do the roasted soy still have the nutrients.
Hi - great video - thanks! Is there a reference or source for the comparison of isoflavone content in soy products?
I am a cancer survivor and have been suffering from severe hot flashes for 13 + years, I have been told by my doctors never to have soybeans products. Next, I have been on a vegan diet for a year, lost weight, I feel great but the hot flashes are depressing. I also tried some medications that have been prescribed by my doctor for antidepressants that have shown to reduce hot flashes, and none worked. The side effects were worse for me, yet hot flashes continued. What else can I do?
@@Cfrederick-jarrett7881 I'm sorry for all you have been through.
I don't know much about breast cancer but I did hear a US oncologist interviewed on an excellent podcast called My Menopause Doctor. This podcast is by a wonderful UK doctor ( Dr Louise Newson ) that is an advocate for women going through menopause and hrt. She has a few episodes focusing on breast cancer & menopause. Dr Avrum Bluming ( oncologist )has written a book called Oestrogen Matters. His wife actually got breast cancer but after treatment she is now safely taking hrt.
I am not saying this is what you should do or even what you can do. But it would be worth listening to the podcast, particularly when Dr Louise Newson interviews Dr Avrum Bluming and they discuss breast cancer and menopause extensively and try to dispell some myths.
Reading Dr Avrum Bluming's book Oestrogen Matters might be worth a read to.
Good luck on your journey 🌻
I have suffered from menopause symptoms since i was taken off premarin because I got estrogen receptive breast cancer. Since 2007 I have gained about 45 lbs, dont sleep, if I do I wake up drenched. So my husband & I started plant based diet in dec 2021. I gave lost 20 lbs which is great but no change in menopause symptoms. I do not have increased energy like my spouse. I guess I will try the soybeans, dont know what else to do. Help...drenched
Perhaps you should experiment with full carnivore. You never know until you try it. Listen to Doc Shawn Baker.
Please consider watching Menopause Taylor. I can't believe the doctors aren't helping you manage these symptoms! There are other medications that can help that aren't estrogen based. I'm on clonidine for blood pressure and it can help decrease the intensity. th-cam.com/play/PLOUBdLFwUtyYimWltwfsEQneVYjIaMQH-.html
Try the soy beans. Very important that is all plant diet with 3 grams of fat per serving.
I take black cohosh supplements and bought the Chilli sleep pad. I sleep well because you can control the temperature of your bed. I keep my Chilli sleep pad at 62. It goes as low as 55 degrees. Try it. Good luck.
I've gotten some relief from night sweats by taking magnesium. Please read up on it. It might be of some help.
Thank You So Much! 🙏🏾
Soya affected my thyroid gland after consuming soya for three years.
@Saras Watkin Have you eliminated soy from your diet? Has your thyroid improved?
I’m nearing 48 and I (knock on wood) have not found hot flashes to be my main perimenopausal problem in the least and I’ve had (other) symptoms starting since 42. I’ve noticed things ramping up in this past year. I have graves and medically induced hypothyroid and have been told that soy interferes with the synthroid that I take.
Also, in attempts to maintain my 5’2” 100”lb frame, I walk 4 miles a day and cut my fat intake considerably to accommodate any body changes and fat redistribution.
Love you Dr Barnard! Great one tks Chuck, hugs .... Pse can you do a video on menopause depression ~ i see a few women have asked .... Most women are told to eat more of the good fats during menopause, but i will try yr approach & see. Another question : Actress Kristen Bell, who is vegan, struggles wth anxiety & depression ~ why is this ?? Tks guys 😘
It's probably because she's an "actress" ...... Seriously
Lots of omnivores struggle with anxiety & depression...really don't understand your question about Kristin Bell??
@@michellehashish5341 I jst wondered because her being an actress she shld have the best options available to sort this ? Surely a healthy balanced vegan diet shld sort anxiety & depression ?
Thank you all for all you’ve shared over these videos 👍
Are black soybeans as nutrient rich as the yellow soybeans?
how about the role of hormones in bone health and dementia proofing?
What if you cannot do soy because cancer treatment?
This was a fantastic series! 💚
Seaweed salad that is sold in restaurants and stores is dripping in oil
I know the focus of this show is menopause but to Chuck’s comments don’t ignore the very real effects of the male version andropause which isn’t talked about enough.
Will eating the 1/2 cup serving of soybeans stall weight loss?
THIS is just what I needed 😌 Off to buy a bulk bag of soy beans and Dr Barnards new book.
what about Omega 3 ??
Any suggestions for Crohn's Disease ?
Dr. Neal kinda looks like judge Roy Ferguson, the judge in that viral cat lawyer video :)
How do you get sufficient protein on this diet??
Yes, you are. I monitor my food intake trough an app.
Legumes, grains, tofu, soy yoghurt, etc…
Dr Bernard what are your thoughts on bioidentical hormones please

Ok so, let's say i have no oils, no vegan processed foods( aside tofu and tempeh) , no nuts, no avocado. BUT i do have organic soy, flax and chia seeds. Am i okay? I can't take away all fats. Please someone answer me, thank you!
You can try. If it helps with reducing or eliminating your hot flashes. It’s sound healthy. I was part of the research. We had to eat under 3 grams of fat per serving. No oils, no nuts. It works.
@@claudiahategan4679 Thanks, fantastic! I'm worried about the Omega-3 though. It's hard to reach the target with just flax...I'm allergic to algae, so i can't take any supplements.
Please repeat the name of the recipe book and the lady who created the recipes? Thank you. Fiona
The book is called Your body in balance. Lindsay's recipes are in the back of the book.
I lent my book The Cheese Trap - to a friend, she said she didn't eat much beef or chicken - but did eat Game meat - I said all meat is non fiber and full of saturated fat and cholestrol - she said no game meat (elk, deer, bear) only has fat on the out side of the meat and that is cut off. really ??????
Is there cooked soybeans in a can...i tried cooking took 3 hours, .....
the only ones i can find in cans are the 'black' soybeans. i'm going to try those before i buy the dried yellow ones. in the first video they recommended cooking them in an instapot, to greatly reduce cooking time. go figure, that's the one kitchen gadget i don't have yet 😊
Eden Foods sells Black Soybeans that are already pre-cooked. They’re quite tasty. You can find them on Amazon.
No. What you should do is soak them for 24 hours, in water with some apple cider vinegar, then cook them. Of course if you have a pressure cooker it's going to be even faster, if not just cook them in boiling water. The soaking will shorten the cooking time.
Edamame (green soybeans) can be purchased cooked and frozen. Add these to your soups & salads!
I buy them in the frozen section. Organic/non-GMO with no salt added
Does the same apply to drug induced menopause flushes due to hormone suppression after breast cancer?
When it comes to menopause symptoms, see a study by Lei with the title "The association between soy isoflavone intake and menopausal symptoms after breast cancer diagnosis: a prospective longitudinal cohort study on Chinese breast cancer patients." The findings were negative (soy did not relieve the symptoms). Another study has similar findings: "There was no evidence that soy food consumption reduced MPS among breast cancer patients. High soy intake may increase the prevalence of hotflashes among premenopausal patients. Our study suggests that soy acts as an estrogen antagonist in breast cancer patients." (see "Soy intake in association with menopausal symptoms during the first 6 and 36 months after breast cancer diagnosis" by Dorjgochoo).
Please how to avoid loosing weight if I stop even healthy oils?🙏🙏🙏
The idea is to keep your calorie content up. Replace the oils with something equivalent in calories
Sophia El awad - First, I want to recommend Dr. Eric Berg's TH-cam channel. He is one of the best and has helped thousands of people all over the world. His research is not funded by Big Pharma, Big Tech, the Soybean Industry, or the Sugar Industry. He has integrity and his research is SOLID.
My first question here is: Why are they advocating soy when the science has shown for a very long time that we should not consume soy unless it has been FERMENTED and non-GMO. This is the way the Japanese have always consumed it.
The main thing with menopause is avoiding SUGAR & GRAINS, eating lots of steamed cruciferous veggies (not raw, in order to protect the thyroid), Wild Sockeye Salmon, Organic Grass-fed meats, Organic Pastured Eggs, Organic Pastured Butter, Filtered Water with Lemon or Apple Cider Vinegar, (fluoride removed by water filter because fluoride destroys the thyroid, lowers IQ), etc. Only Food-Based Supplements like B Complex - not synthetic vitamins which are harmful and actually cause deficiency, Daily Walk Outdoors - not excessive exercise, which releases too much cortisol (the stress hormone). *The reason it is important to only eat 100% Grass-fed animal foods like butter, beef, chicken, is because the fat from animals that have been allowed to roam freely outdoors and eat nutritious grasses, contain Omega 3, similar to salmon, and Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) which is proven to reduce belly (visceral fat). Our brain needs these good fats to function well ~ especially during menopause. By the way, the isoflavones found in soy beans can also be found in all legumes, but legumes and grains contain anti-nutrients like phytic acid which block the absorption of vital trace minerals such as zinc, unles they have been fermented or at the very least, soaked at least 24 hours - changing the water a few times prior to cooking. Knowing this info has been a game changer for me at 65. Hope this helps someone out there.
@@smudge8882 if you replace the oils with "something equivalent in calories" that "something" could be the wrong food that triggers menopausal symtoms. The main thing to avoid is SUGAR and GRAINS which deplete nutrients and harm our hormonal balance.
Good fats from Wild Fish, Olive Oil, Butter, Pastured Eggs, Pastured Chicken, Grass-fed Beef, are wonderful for our hormonal and brain health. The key is only consuming fats from "healthy" animals - not tortured and confined animals that have been pumped with growth hormones, antibiotics, and gmo grains. Regarding fish, it should only be wild-caught and not farmed. Also, if we have enough Selenium in our body, it will help protect us from any mercury in the fish. Hope this helps.
@@margokerby1533 wow, thanks for sharing all your wisdom!! I'd love to get your take on veganism? I started eating that way end of February this year, I've lost 38 lbs and my mood is very stable and I'm at peace with my life now. I feel great and have a ton of energy. The only thing I have noticed is my eyesight seems not as well (need my readers more often) could be related to my new way of eating or the fact I just turned 49...? Who knows.
One thing I do know is even if I wasn't vegan I don't think I could bite into another hamburger. Grosses me out 🤮
@@jenl1107 We can get beta carotene from veggies but hard to convert into the actual Vitamin A which our eyes need and is readily available in grass-fed butter, like Kerry Gold and Cod Liver Oil supplements. I recommend watching Dr. Eric Berg's TH-cam channel. His research is not funded by Big Ag, Big Pharma, the Soybean Industry, or the Sugar Industry. He has helped thousands of people all over the world. He talks about avoiding synthetic vitamins which can actually cause deficiencies, and only consuming food/plant based supplements.
For vision, he also recommends BENFOTIAMINE which is the fat soluble form of the b vitamin, THIAMINE, which is normally water soluble and leaves the body quickly
Sometimes you just have to supplement certain nutrients when you are vegan but the key is to make sure the supplements are coming from real food sources. Hope this helps!
I'm plant based, can't seem to lose weight - I eat tofu not every day.
That could mean anything though.
Are you eating only plant foods without salt, oil or sugar? No packaged foods?
Dr McDougall really helped me with this. I used his reset program based on the Starch Solution. Essentially 1/2 plate yellow and green veggies (I made that a salad with peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers...endless optios), starch such a rice, potatoes or corn and I'd add black beans or chicken peas because I found I liked that. Chelsea Mae and Healthy Emmie are also great wfpb resources on TH-cam. After a few weeks I noticed my weight started to drop, eventually my set point reset to 124 lbs! This was a few years ago and I'm still 124 lbs. I started menopause 2 yrs ago following Dr Barnard's advice. Awesome experience, wfpb was a game changer for me. One thing I did as well was get my blood work done and regular check ups with my doctor. Everyone is different but give this a try, it did work for me. Good luck!
Low carb vegan lifestyle is amazing
Check out Chef AJ, she really focuses on weight loss with many recipies
@@ludicrousone8706 chef AJ says to a avoid soy products for maximum weight loss. I am having a hard time loosing weight too. I guess it has something be with menopause. Am I right?
Hi. Someone called JS had sent me a great msg, but i cant seem to find it on here anymore, but i do have a copy of it on my phone. I was hoping to chat to her again & ask if she has had any luck with menopausal insomnia ?
Very awesome Doctor. Simple and straightforward explanation. Just eat plants!
Great information I am up for the challenge. What about using plant based cheese options?
Those are processed and full of fat/oils. They're not healthy!
I had a total hysterectomy at the age of 38 and was put on Premarin afterward, I am now 53 and took myself off the Premarin should I be doing anything to ensure that I am not losing bone density?
Exercise, such as weight lifting, is key in preventing loss of bone density (and building strong bones). But do be mindful to execute the exercise in a safe way not to suffer from prolapse after hysterectomy. Also find out plant sources of calcium (like broccoli).

You had me at "Make a list" 😉 Thank you for making #plantbased a possibility for me & my household 💟 🌱🍀
Can anyone please tell me how much grams is 0.5cup of cooked soy beans? As a European I find this measuring with cups very unprecise, especially with foods as bulky as beans. Thanks!
I used to feel the same. Checked, and a cup is basically 2,5 dl (2,4) so half a cup would be 1,25 dl. Dont know about weight though, but dl is pretty easy to measure.😊
Hair falling out. I take B12 d3 calcium minerals zinc.
Indeed Grateful ~ perhaps a Vitamin D deficiency. Recommend Dr. Eric Berg TH-cam channel. Solid research not funded by the soybean industry or Big Pharma.
@@margokerby1533
Thanks 😊👍
@@margokerby1533 pretty sure this channel is NOT funded by soy or big pharma lol. And Dr. Berg is Keto, probably not the best recommendation here 🤣
@@Homesteadacrelot ~ Your attempt to discredit what I said and ridicule me with laughing emoji shows that I must be on to something that you don't want menopausal women to know. People reading this should wonder who you are working for. Regarding Keto, it is one of the very best things menopausal women can do, but that is only one component of the incredible info that Dr. Eric Berg has researched, and it has been a game changer for thousands of people around the world, including me.
@@margokerby1533 Dr Eric Berg is a chiropractor, not a real doctor.
I have hashimotos thyroiditis and the only thing keto/low carb ( recommended by a naturopath ) gave me was high cholesterol and I felt like crap.
Whole food plant based eating has restored my health and I am correcting my cholesterol issue.
Do you work for the agri industry??
Is that why you're spamming here?
This might be the most irresponsible thing I have ever seen. These men are frauds.
I was/am doing WFPB & low fat & low carb diet for 2 decades, but after my hysterectomy I still suffered severe meno symptoms. I began taking Vit E daily and all my symptoms resolved in a few days!
I still struggle with weight loss even on strict OMAD & IF (one meal a day & intermittant fasting). Unfortunately, i cant do any soy, cohosh, or other
estrogenics per my oncologist.
I also went through a hysterectomy and what type of vitamin E do you take ?
I noticed you put Tempeh "raw" on the list. I didn't think you could eat Tempeh raw? Doesn't it make you sick if you eat it raw?
Right! Dr. Eric Berg has a wonderful TH-cam channel and he knows his stuff. I highly recommend him because everything he researches and teaches has helped thousands of people globally.
LOVED THIS EPISODE! 🌱🌱🌱
Hello Dr. Neal how much and long you recommend to take Vit B12
Thank you for telling us how to eat out at restaurants! It is something I look forward to every weekend!
That’s a high carb high insulin producing diet that will increase belly fat hormonal imbalances and insulin resistance!
I can't eat soy because it sets my uterine fibroid off really bad. Is there an alternative. ATM I'm eating eggs & cheese because I can't have soy. They don't affect my fibroids. I have chronic fatigue from guillain barre syndrome now menopause I've been hit harder with fatigue and sweating which is uncontrollable. My neurologist went mad at me for being plantbased but I made a good recovery on it but he said I must adhere to omnivore diet but because I stick to plant based as much as I can he refuses to see me. Ended up with fear of nerve damage because of him and I can't have soy. They won't take fibroid out because I'm 54 past child bareing they said hysterectomy which I don't want! The Dr's really messed with my head. Want to be vegan
I am so sick of all these professionals giving very conflicting information.
Thanks for the instructions how to cook soy beans!! :)
Having menpouse at the age of 34 is it natural? Please discuss how its bad for health Dr.
Could you talk about Hashimoto's, soy bean consumption and menopause, please?
Yes, please!
...consistent wet and dry fasting resolved it for me;o) Cheers
