Your individual Evaluation
💗 Thank you very much for your detailed information in the XbyX Check. Below you will find your results and your personal tips! 🌿
Your current hormonal phase
It looks like you've reached the wisdom, serenity and strength of postmenopause! Most of us experience menopause between the ages of 45 and 55, with 52 being the average age. Menopause marks the point of your final period, when the last available egg begins its journey. You'll only know for sure when you've gone without a period for about a year.
From now on, the postmenopause begins, lasting for the rest of your life. It's your body's new normal, with oestrogen and progesterone hormones now permanently low and without significant fluctuations. So much freedom! No more pads, tampons, cramps or unexpected bleeding.
A special case of postmenopause is surgical/induced menopause, such as after a total hysterectomy, oophorectomy or due to hormone-positive cancer diagnoses. It's referred to as "early or premature menopause" when a woman experiences it before the age of 40.
Top Tips
For postmenopause
With decreased oestrogen levels, its protective effects on the cardiovascular system, bones, brain, skin and more, diminish. Just like with a valuable vintage car, your body's demands increase: preventive check-ups, healthy nutrition, exercise and mental balance are now more important than ever! Harness the power of nature to support your body and mind. Plant-based proteins are suitable for strong bones and muscles. Phytoestrogens, anti-inflammatory and antioxidative micronutrients are essential for heart, brain, intestines and the immune system. Follow the Simple 7 nutrition concept and compliment it with Phyto Power to nurture and fortify yourself.
Step by Step
Gradual changes are the most successful. Focus on the most important step first. By the way, our name XbyX is composed of 'XX' for the female chromosomes and 'Step by Step' for the gradual optimisation of nutrition and lifestyle. Quite fitting, isn't it? 😊
Your priority
Reducing Stress & Improving Sleep
Your body remains active day and night, with numerous internal processes constantly at work. These activities ensure that you wake up refreshed and ready for the day ahead.
During the hormonal fluctuations of perimenopause, sleep disturbances are not uncommon. These disturbances result in daytime fatigue, making it challenging to concentrate and leaving individuals on edge. This exacerbates hormonal imbalances and adversely affects the quality of life. Poor sleep impacts hormonal balance, overall well-being, and weight. Following a restless night, individuals appear and feel tired, lacking in energy. Mood, recovery, the immune system, and cognitive abilities are all affected.
Prolonged stress also exacerbates hot flashes and contributes to weight gain. Elevated cortisol, the stress hormone, stimulates appetite and cravings, leading to increased irritability, loss of libido, difficulties in memory and concentration, digestive issues, and sleep problems, as well as premature ageing.
Our recommendation
Take it easy
Remain calm and positive throughout the day with the support of Vitamins B3, B6, B12 and Riboflavin. These nutrients help maintain a balanced nervous system, regulate hormones, protect cells from stress and boost mental well-being. Plus, our innovative formula combines L-theanine, tryptophan, and ashwagandha for optimal results.
Top Tips
For a relax state and tranquility
Though sleep disturbances are common among many women, you possess the ability to actively alleviate stress in your life, resulting in a more serene state.
1. Stress-Reducing Diet: Incorporate foods rich in tryptophan into your meals for improved rest. Salmon, seafood, chicken, cottage cheese and eggs are excellent choices. Limit alcohol and caffeine intake, especially after 2 PM. Check out our recipe "Sweet Slumber with Golden Milk" designed to gently soothe and ease you into a restful night's sleep.
2. Essential Stress-Relieving Nutrients: Consider magnesium, vitamin D and omega-3 fatty acids to support your stress reduction efforts.
3. Herbal and Adaptogenic Support: Turn to herbal remedies like lemon balm, passionflower and lavender, known for their calming effects. Additionally, adaptogens like ashwagandha provide valuable support in managing daily stress for greater tranquillity.
4. Stress-Relief Techniques: Practice techniques such as deep belly breathing to alleviate stress. Lie down in a relaxed position and start a 4-7-8 breathing ritual: Inhale for 4 seconds, hold for 7 seconds, and exhale slowly for 8 seconds. Repeat this four to six times.
5. Sleep Environment: Ensure your bedroom is conducive to stress reduction by keeping it cool, dark, and quiet. Follow a consistent bedtime routine and reduce screen time in the evening using blue light filters.
Remember, you're not alone in your struggles. Our survey found that 87 percent of participants also deal with sleep disturbances and stress, but there are effective strategies to overcome them.
