The Menopause, Digestion and Yoga

Have you noticed that as you age you tend to gain weight around your middle? Perhaps you noticed more bloating or constipation and changes to your digestion and bowel movements?

Changes to our digestive system during the menopause come in many forms: from acid reflux, excess wind, diarrhoea, bloating or constipation to cramping, increased appetite & weight gain. You might begin to experience these as you approach midlife even if you never suffered from these before. If you suffer from irritable bowel syndrome, your symptoms will only get worse.
