Discover the newest episode of the Quatrefolic 360° series, available on YouTube, dedicated on how folate supplementation may support women experiencing menopausal symptoms as hot flashes.
Hot flashes are transient sensations of heat, sweating, flushing, anxiety, and chills lasting for 1–5 min. They are not life-threatening, but the experience can be unpleasant and painful, and they can result in an overall decrease in the quality of physical, emotional, and social life.
How may folate support menopausal women?
Studies have shown that folate* supplementation significantly ameliorates hot flashes in postmenopausal women.
With a mechanism similar to Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT), by interacting with monoamine neurotransmitters in the brain.
Interesting to note that the other alternative therapies like herbs and drugs including antidepressants have been not widely accepted by women because have some side effects, like reduced patients’ tolerance, drug interactions that may limit their use, and be not effective for all patients.
