12-week Multi-vitamin/Mineral Supplementation on Peri-menopause Symptoms, Cognition, Sleep, and Psychological Well-being.

Perimenopause is a stage of transition into menopause that is marked by menopausal symptoms while menstruation is still taking place. Perimenopause symptoms include mood changes, anxiety, sleep disruptions, hot flushes, night sweats, fatigue, and cognitive challenges. The frequency and severity of these symptoms can seriously impair women\'s quality of life. Even if the public\'s awareness on menopause has increased, there are still a lot of unanswered questions. A connection between nutrition and menopause management has been proposed in earlier research. However, there is limited research in this field, and women frequently turn to social media for supplement recommendations in order to deal with menopause-related issues. Vitamins and minerals such as vitamin D and calcium are recommended by the European Menopause and Andropause Society and there is limited evidence to suggests that soy and herbals may have a beneficial effect on menopausal symptoms, but more research is needed. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of 12-weeks multi-vitamin/mineral and herbal extract-containing supplement on menopause symptoms, memory and concentration, sleep, and psychological well-being.
