Stiffnesd with menopause?
Posted , 14 users are following.
Hi ladies, I've been off the forum for a while. I hope everyone is doing better with the symptoms we're having. I found out a year ago that I'm in menopause. Do you ladies have issues with aching joints, body stiffness; especially after awaking?

Samantha, that's exactly how I feel; like the tin man. It drives me nuts sometimes.

And I’ve never heard of Ancient Nutrition Bone Broth. Someone care to explain what that is as well?

I drink this this every morning.. a glass of water with acv (I don't measure) and I also put some turmeric in it and drink... Not that pleasant but why not and see if it helps.

Ancient Nutrition is the brand name. Bone broth is basically the powdered form of simmered bones(chicken mostly). It comes in different flavors such as Vanilla, Chocolate, etc. I use the Tumeric flavor because it's a known anti-inflammatory. You can use it in food(I used it in my chili the other day)or you can mix it with juice, milk, or make a smoothie. You can find it in your local health food store. I bought mine at Whole Foods. You can check out their website for more information, it's good for other things too. I can't put the website on here but it you just put in Ancient Nutrition Bone Broth I'm sure it will take you to the website. It has really helped with my stiffness, especially in the morning.

I'm glad she has a doctor that realizes that a pill is not always the answer. Tumeric is also supposed to help with anxiety.

I buy organic bone broth to make vegetable soup and it tastes like any other. This particular brand had a lot of protein in it so even better!! I'm not a fan of turmeric but you can sprinkle some in soups, smoothies or even eggs. The lady who told me to mix it with apple cider vinegar also takes turmeric in pill form
