Perimenopause symptoms and relief · Office on Women’s HealthSteadier energy
Feel fueled, not flattened

Notice: energy 1–3 hours later
Digestive comfort
A portion that works for you

Notice: comfort + portion
Comfortably satisfied
Fullness that has staying power
This meal is designed to feel substantial, so finishing it can feel like the meal is complete rather than the start of an evening of grazing.
Notice: fullness 2–3 hours later
More staying power
Make the next few hours easier
This meal is built to be more sustaining than a snack-sized stopgap, with enough substance to carry you into the next part of the day.
Notice: energy + fullness later
