Bean and seed sprouts can be rich sources of plant estrogen, which may be able to offset some of menopause's peskiest symptoms. You can easily grow them using mung beans, lentils, alfalfa, chickpeas, and flax seed to name a few.  It's really easy to grow them too: all you need to do is soak the beans or seeds in a jar, changing the water regularly. Depending on the variety, the sprouts should be ready within 2-6 days! But if you can't wait that long, get your lentil fix with this delicious recipe for lentil and goat cheese soup.
