A British consumer organization analyzed 26 supplements marketed for menopause and found that many lack sufficient amounts of key nutrients. The study noted that the global menopause supplement market is growing rapidly, but labeling products with the word ‘menopause’ can significantly increase prices compared to standard multivitamins.

Following these findings, nutritionists have suggested specific dietary habits to manage symptoms such as hot flashes, sleep disturbances, and loss of bone density. Recommendations include consuming protein-rich breakfasts to preserve muscle mass and using warm milk in evening routines to support sleep through tryptophan. Experts also cautioned against certain plant-based milks that may lack essential iodine or calcium fortification.
