I'll have to see if that is the case with me. I didn't have alot of protein yesterday. I try to stay within the 4-6 oz each meal. I had 5 oz of tuna for lunch and prob. 4 oz last night of sirloin and I can only account for 1 hot flash last night. Like I mentioned I had a few bouts of it when my periods stopped but it was so infrequent. Now it's almost nightly. I had a really big steak on Saturday, and I think my flashes were more. Hmmm I'll keep this in mind. Thank you.
