Menopause is a time of many changes, and not all of them are easy to navigate. While hot flushes and night sweats are well-known symptoms, some of the more subtle effects, like changes in our senses, can be just as challenging. During menopause, many women experience changes in taste, smell, and even touch. These changes can affect how you enjoy food, interact with your environment, and even your emotional wellbeing.
Let’s take a closer look at how menopause impacts your senses and how Arella Pause can help you manage those changes, so you can feel more comfortable in your body.
How menopause affects the senses
1. Changes in taste
You might find that food no longer tastes the same. Some women experience a dulling of their tastebuds, while others notice foods having an unusual or metallic taste. If you’re one of those women, you’re not alone, and this is a common symptom of hormonal changes during menopause.
2. Smell sensitivity
Many women find that their sensitivity to smells becomes heightened during menopause. You might suddenly find certain scents overpowering or unpleasant, even if they’ve never bothered you before. This can make everyday situations, like walking through a grocery store or sitting in a crowded room, a bit more overwhelming.
3. Changes in touch
Some women notice that their skin becomes drier and more sensitive. You may find that your favourite fabrics feel uncomfortable or that your skin is more sensitive to touch than usual. This is often due to fluctuating hormones, which can also impact the skin’s hydration levels.
How Arella Pause can help
Arella Pause is specially formulated to support women through the hormonal changes that come with menopause, including the sensory shifts. Here’s how it can help:
1. Balancing hormones naturally
Arella Pause contains powerful ingredients like Sage, Red Clover Extract, and Pine Bark Extract, which work together to help regulate hormones. By balancing hormones, Arella Pause can reduce some of the discomfort that comes with changes in your senses.
2. Supporting energy and mental clarity
With the added benefits of Vitamin B6, B12, and Cinnamon, Arella Pause helps support energy production and mental clarity, giving you a boost throughout the day when energy dips and mental fog can be a common issue.
3. Improving sleep
With the added benefits of Pine Bark Extract and Sage, Arella Pause promotes deeper, more restful sleep, which can be affected by hormonal fluctuations during menopause. This will help you feel more rested and restore a sense of balance.
4. Supporting skin health
Biotin and Vitamin E work together to support your skin, hair, and nails, helping you maintain that healthy glow during menopause.
Other tips for your senses
Taste sensitivity
If you’re struggling with taste sensitivity during menopause, here are a few tips to help make food more enjoyable:
Add more flavour to your meals: To enhance your eating experience, try adding more flavour to your meals. Fresh fruits like berries, citrus, or pineapple can complement a dish, making it more vibrant and refreshing.
Explore new flavours: Experiment with different herbs and spices in your meals to see what excites your taste buds. These can provide new experiences that feel fresher and tastier.
Choose strong flavours: If your taste buds are less responsive, stronger flavours can sometimes make a more noticeable impact. Think tangy dressings, rich spices, or zesty citrus to liven things up.
Scent sensitivity
During menopause, many women experience heightened sensitivity to smells. If strong scents are overwhelming, consider these suggestions:
Keep essential oils or perfume on hand: A small bottle of your favourite scent can help make daily activities more pleasant, whether you’re running errands or out for a walk.
Ventilate spaces: Regularly airing out rooms can help reduce strong or unpleasant smells, making your home environment more comfortable.
Skin sensitivity
Increased skin sensitivity is another common issue during menopause. To help alleviate discomfort, try these tips:
Wear soft, breathable fabrics: Choose materials like cotton or bamboo that allow your skin to breathe and prevent irritation.
Moisturise regularly: Keep your skin hydrated with a good moisturiser to soothe dry, sensitive skin. This will help reduce discomfort caused by increased sensitivity.
Arella’s got you covered
We know that during menopause, changes in taste, smell, and skin sensitivity can be an issue. While most of our customers love the natural flavour of Arella Pause, we understand that preferences vary. If you find the taste doesn’t quite work for you, here are a few ways to make it easier to incorporate into your routine:
Mix it with your favourite food or drink: If you’re looking for something more flavourful, try adding Arella Pause to a smoothie or juice. Fresh fruits like berries, citrus, or pineapple work well and can give you an extra refreshing twist.
Take it straight from the fridge: Many of our customers enjoy Arella Pause chilled directly from the fridge. The cool temperature enhances the refreshing experience.
Add it to Tea: For a relaxing touch, add a sachet of Arella Pause to your favourite herbal or black tea. It’s a simple way to enjoy it while unwinding.
Consistency is Key
Regardless of how you choose to take Arella Pause, consistency is essential for optimal results. Make sure to take one sachet daily to experience all the benefits this unique formula has to offer. Whether it’s straight from the sachet, mixed with your favourite smoothie, or added to tea, sticking to your routine will help you feel balanced, rejuvenated, and ready for each day.
