Setting the record straight
Lynda Bumstead thinks it's time
to set the record straight. As the
public health dietitian at the Bruce -
Grey -Owen Sound Health Unit; she
understands women's concerns
ab.out weight gain during
menopause. But she is also worried
about women becoming preoc-
cupied with their weight. t'Women
can feel a lot of pressure to shed
any extra pounds they gain during
menopause when, in fact, this
weight may actually be good for
them."
"While it is true that some
women will gain a small amount of
weight during menopause, this is no
cause for alarm," says Bumstead.
The extra weight may actually
decrease the risk of osteoporosis by
placing more pressure on the bones
and helping to reduce bone loss.
Some women gain between two and
eight kilograms (five to fifteen
pounds). This weight gain is often
centered around the abdomen.
Bumstead says health officials are
not sure why some women gain this
weight. One theory is that
menopause creates an imbalance of
hormones that slows down a
woman's metabolism. This im-
balance causes women to gain
weight even though their diet and
exercise patterns have not changed.
"A little extra fat tissue can also be
beneficial because it produces a
natural form of the hormone
estrogen. This extra estrogen may
reduce symptoms often associated
with. menopause."
"For same women this small
weight Lan can be difficult to
accept", concedes Bumstead. "But
really, it is much healthier to accept
this change rather than to place
yourself on a strict diet. No matter
how much the diet industry would
like you to believe that their
programs work, the facts show that
diets don't work." Bumstead says
there is growing evidence that
repeated dieting (weight cycling)
can be harmful to your health. The
better approach is to' strive for a
healthy weight by eating well and
including enjoyable exercise every
'day. This sensible approach to
weight loss helps you look good,
feel healthy and energetic, and
focus on things more important than
dieting.
According to Bumstead,
menopause is a chance to stop and
take a look at your eating style to
see how it measures up. Try this
quiz and see how you do.
❑ Do. you try to choose lower -fat
foods more often (i.e. meat trimmed
of fat, chicken without skin, lower
fat cheeses, frozen yogurt)?
O Do you choose whole grains
more often (i.e. whole wheat
breads, bran muffins, whole grain
cereals, rollsand buns)?
0- Do you have at least one dark
green or orange vegetable or orange
fruit every day?
❑ Do you try to limit beverages
that .contain caffeine?
0 Do you limit how many alcoholic
drinks you have?
If you answered "yes" to most of
these questions, keep up the good
work. If you answered "no" to
many of these you may want to get
some additional information from
your local Health Unit office on
healthy eating.
