Today I’m talking HOT FLUSHES
These can vary from getting a little hot to a debilitating heat that can stop you in your tracks.
There are a few things that may help these episodes.
Choose Cotton underwear and night clothes
Use a pillow at night which contains a cool pad. There are several different types now that you can buy online.
Wear thin Layered clothing (so they can be easily removed as needed).
Avoid or reduce caffeine and alcohol.
Supplements may also help such as Sage, Red Clover or Black Cohosh.
However, ALWAYS check with your GP or Pharmacist if on any prescribed medication or have allergies.
Something else that may help are alternative therapies such as Acupuncture, Homeopathy and Reflexology.
