Welcome back to The Real Dish—the place where we serve up no-fluff conversations about health, wellness, and all the juicy details women want to know but might not talk about enough. I'm Chef Mareya, and today we're diving headfirst into a topic that's been the center of many debates, doctor visits, and Google searches: Hormone Replacement Therapy, or HRT, versus the natural approaches women around the world use to manage menopause.

Now, menopause isn't a one-size-fits-all experience—it's as unique as we are. And while it comes with its challenges (hello, hot flashes, mood swings, and brain fog), this phase can also be empowering, once you figure out what works for you. So grab your tea, kombucha, or whatever keeps you cool, because we're about to break it all down!
