Gytree, India’s one stop nutrition platform for women, has once again made headlines in the wellness industry by launching India's first peri/menopause-specific protein for women over 40. This revolutionary product is specifically designed to meet the unique nutritional needs of women transitioning through menopause, helping them tackle the range of physical and emotional challenges that accompany this phase.
Protein Power for Menopause
“The menopause phase, which typically begins in women around their 40s or early 50s, brings about significant hormonal changes,” says Dr Sudeshna Ray, Additional Director, Obstetrics & Gynaecology, at Jaslok Hospital Mumbai. “These shifts can result in symptoms such as hot flashes, fatigue, mood swings, weight gain, and skin changes, among others.”
“Unfortunately, many women are not provided with targeted nutrition to address these challenges, leaving them vulnerable to both short-term discomfort and long-term health risks such as osteoporosis and cardiovascular issues,” says Gytree founder Shaili Chopra. “At Gytree we are creating a one-stop nutrition place for women to manage health and hormones better.”
Recognising this gap, Gytree has developed a breakthrough product that is not only tailored for women’s health but also convenient and effective.
The No-Bloat, 100% Natural Formula
One of the standout features of Gytree's menopause protein is its no-bloat formulation, ensuring that it is gentle on the stomach and easy to digest, which is crucial for women who may already be facing digestive discomfort during menopause. Most importantly it helps reduce symptoms like hot flashes, providing much-needed relief. The product is made with 100% natural ingredients, reflecting Gytree’s commitment to providing clean, safe, and health-boosting supplements for women that actually deliver results. This product is free from gums, fillers, and preservatives, ensuring that women consume only what their body needs without any unwanted side effects.
Women are exhausted dealing with the symptoms of the various life stages they go through from menstruation to menopause and our market is full of nutritional products formulated for and tested only on men. Gytree wants to change this.
The protein is fortified with nutrients that help improve energy levels and fight fatigue, a symptom commonly experienced by menopausal women. It also has those vitamins and minerals in which Indian women are deficient such as folic and iron, B12, Vitamin D etc.
With Gytree’s menopause protein, women can expect an improvement in their vitality and a boost in their day-to-day energy, making it easier to stay active and engaged throughout the day. Menopause can also have a profound effect on mental well-being, with women often reporting mood swings, anxiety, and irritability. The formula includes ingredients that help to support mood balance and reduce the severity of these symptoms, providing mental clarity and emotional stability.
A Game-Changer for Women Over 40
Recently Gytree launched a support group called Women Wellness and Wins - with a focus on celebrating women over 40. During the launch of this menopause club at The Quorum in Gurgaon, Dr Sudeshna Ray said “menopause is fifteen years of a woman’s life and we need programs and products to make it more comfortable.”
“By launching this product, Gytree has successfully addressed a significant gap in women’s health care in India, especially for those over 40,” she adds.
While there have been general supplements available, none have specifically targeted the distinct needs of menopausal women. This menopause protein stands out not just because of its targeted benefits—from reducing hot flashes to improving skin health and mood—but also because of its easy-to-digest formula that avoids bloating, a common concern with protein supplements.
The Gytree Difference
Gytree is a brand known for its innovative approach to women’s health. The company combines deep scientific research with real-world health concerns, offering women natural and effective solutions for their unique health needs. With their menopause protein, Gytree has demonstrated their commitment to empowering women to take charge of their health during every stage of life.
In their portfolio of nutrition products now, there are plant proteins for daily energy, a protein for 40+ and they will soon announce a protein for PCOS management.
“Protein plays a major role in a woman’s hormonal journey. For example, we know insulin resistance is seen among PCOS patients and one of the things we really need to work upon to reverse it is by taking control over our carbohydrates and replacing them with high-value proteins as protein helps in improving insulin sensitivity,” says Nutritionist Chahat Vasdev.
And so proteins targeted to solve hormonal health for women are central to improving the landscape of nutritional products in the market.
“This menopause protein isn’t just a supplement; it’s a holistic solution designed to give women over 40 the nutritional support they need to thrive, not just survive, through menopause,” says Chopra.
As a one-stop place for nutrition, Gytree is focused on creating nutritional supplements that help women overcome daily lifestyle issues like irregular periods, perimenopause and menopause.
As menopause becomes a more widely discussed and accepted topic in the realm of women’s health, Gytree is at the forefront of providing real, actionable solutions that help women feel better and stronger.
