6. Cut Out Some Food and Drinks
You could call this a remedy, or you could just call it a recommendation, but in any event, it has been shown through various studies that there are certain foods that can inflame your hot flashes during menopause. On the other hand, there are also foods that can reduce the number or severity of these uncomfortable experiences that you have.
If you can’t get by without your coffee, try switching to iced coffee instead of hot. However, any source of caffeine is likely to provoke hot flashes so you should try to find out whether this is the case for you. Alcohol has also been shown to bring on another heatwave.
It should come as no surprise that spicy foods will make it worse, but there is also a connection between foods that are high in sugar or saturated fat and the intensity of hot flashes. You may want to consider a more vegetarian diet for a while to see if that helps as well.
