I was having hot flashes on an hourly basis. When I started putting soy milk in my coffee in the morning and also in my lunch shake They completely disappeared. I have been hot flash free for at least 6 months and it is a lifesaver! Thank you!!!
Yes I had exactly the same experience. I started eating either edamame or cooked soybeans every day and the hot flashes basically disappeared. They start up again as soon as I slack off on the soy. I know it's possibly not as black and white in terms of results for other women but my mind has kind of been blown by how effective soy is. And edamame is delicious and super healthy so it's not even a hardship.
My only menopausal symptom was stopping menstruation. Best time of my life! I’ve been eating a WFPB diet before and after with a regular intake of soy in various forms. It may be just good luck but it also correlates with the subject video.
My cousin takes soy isoflavones from amazon store for her hot flashes. Shes really thin too. It took a few weeks to fully kick in but shes 90% free from hot flashes. Total life changer. Im 3 yrs older but havnt gone thru that yet.
This certainly explains why I have fewer hot flashes than my friends who are the same age (or younger). I am occasionally warmer than I'd like to be but it's just a minor annoyance.
I've been on WFPB, including plenty of soy (beans, homemade soy yoghurt, tofu), since the last week of December, so over 3 months. It's had NO effect at all on my hot flashes. None.
I was already slim (56kg @170cm) BMI 20, moderately active. 52 years old, menopause just about kicking in, hot flashes regularly for about 2 years (on and off, but I still had the odd period in that first year)
I have to confess to being very disappointed!
Fascinating, I just posted in response to someone else saying soy was extremely effective for her hot flashes. I've had the same results, to the point that they stop completely if I eat soy every day and start up again if I stop. I wish we knew more about what hot flashes actually are, because it seems like maybe a complex mechanism in each woman? I'm sorry you had no luck with soy.
Yep for me the same. No effect at all. I only got them post menopause and now after two years they are not that severe and frequent anymore. So hopefully they will be gone soon.
A couple of us in my family have very resistant and severe hot flashes. My hot flashes reduced when I ate more daily soy (tofu, tempeh, etc.), but when I went very low fat as well, they lessened dramatically in number and severity. If I eat more fat for a week or two they worsen. Low fat means 20% or less of calories per day, from whole food, and no free oils. Life changer for me.

Wow! That’s great!! It just goes to show we all have to experiment. Elizabeth Bright tells her patients to eat lots of saturated fats for going through menopause, but for you, low fat was best. I hope I get it figured out when the time comes. 😅
@@PeaceIsYeshuathe research cited here also recommends high soy, low saturated fat. Going high on saturated fats is a recipe for heart disease.
Love this channel ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I am a man with ME/ CFS. I trialled low-dosed Risperidone for about a month about 4 years ago to see if it would help, like some anecdotes. It did not. Instead, I've been left with severe night sweats, anhedonia, apathy ever since I took it. No treatment has helped.
Are you raw vegan? Eating just fresh fruits and veggies and nuts and seeds and melons and berries and seaweeds...
@@pinkiepinkster8395 No lmao. I eat a balanced whole foods plant-based diet, with no nutrient deficiency.

I am so very sorry to hear that. Are you familiar with Raelan‘s channel? She interviews people that have recovered from ME/ CFS, and the common denominator seems to be brain retraining for the nervous system. You can be calm and at peace, but if your nervous system is stuck and fight or flight, you cannot heal.
@@PeaceIsYeshua No, CFS/ME isn't my problem. I'm 85% recovered thanks to a medication called Low-dosed Naltrexone (which addresses inflammation of the HPA axis). As for Raelan, and neuroscientist myself, I am pretty sceptical of any type of DNRS-type protocol (I did one and it made me significantly worse), as that is not how the brain nor neural plasticity works (usually using half truths like any other snake oil salesman). If people are recovering, they probably didn't have ME/ CFS, and it seems to be more psychosomatic than anything. It is also very patronizing, in a way that you wouldn't suggest it to brain cancer patients or people with Parkinson's. What we need is potent medication.
I love these podcasts.
They're common but not everyone gets them. My mom didn't but mine are vicious without hrt.
HRT is the gold standard
In his How Not To Age book, he indicates that there are some significant risks with HRT. But there sure are lots of videos, some by MD’s, singing the praises of HRT, strongly encourage it, even saying that you’re risking your health by avoiding HRT. You’re hormone deficient and need to supplement with estradiol; the WHI study was flawed because of the forms of HRT used; is what they’re saying.
I would like to hear/read Dr. Greger’s response to such HRT promoters
Interesting!!!
Dr Greger, can you discuss red light therapy sometime?
Is soy contraindicated for those of us who suffer from hot flashes during menopause and have hypothyroidism?
Off topic - Sprouts, hype or reality? If there is something to this, is one type better than another? Broccoli sprouts? Sulpheraphane?
Dr. Berg has informative sulforafane vids.
Yes, dr. Greger recommends sprouts.
I don't find that soy has and effect on whether or not I have hot flashes
hormone therapy significantly increases risk of heart attack??? what hormone is he referring to? I thought the research shows (low dose) estrogen protects you from heart disease! Are we going back to the WHI debacle of the early 2000s?? i’m so confused.
HRT improves bones, keep arteries supple, and assists with deterring Alzheimer's. Check out Menopause Taylor, Dr Heather Hirsch and a slew of current Drs assisting women understand the effects of estrogen deficiency
exactly!! He is Grossly misinformed! The WHI was a total debacle!!
And the protein minus the natural sugar is a no brainer for soy milk in my lattes/smoothies 👍😊
