13. Licorice Root
This is another old fashioned herbal remedy for these common menopause symptoms. Licorice root is generally consumed as a tea but you can also consume supplements. Drink two or three cups of this type of tea each day for best results or consume the supplements according to directions.
14. Basil
Basil tea can also help to reduce hot flashes and night sweats. Like other herbal teas, you will need to drink three or four cups each day to get relief from your symptoms. Some women also claim that adding one quart of strong basil tea to their bathwater can help stop night sweats.
15. Lemon
For some women, simply drinking three to four glasses of lemon water each and every day help to reduce their night sweats as well as hot flashes. Add the juice of one half of an organic lemon to a glass of water and drink several times each day. You can also drink lemon balm tea several times a day.
