Check nowDigestive problems are very common in the menopause and can be caused by several factors.
Falling levels of oestrogen can affect the digestion itself, causing bloating.
Falling oestrogen levels can also have an effect on carb metabolism, making it more difficult to digest carbohydrates, and this can often lead to problems.
I would suggest Molkosan Vitality, as this is traditionally used for bloating and other issues.
Try to avoid white bread, pasta, cakes, biscuits and also white rice - you may notice a difference very quickly doing this!
However, it is also important to check with your doctor if the problems have been going on for more than a couple of weeks.
