Description
Natural solutions to help women manage menopause–
Managing Menopause with Diet, Vitamins and Herbs is an essential guide for all women in their 40s, 50s and 60s. Whether women are looking for natural ways to minimize symptoms that signal the approach of menopause, or, post menopause, are wanting to make changes to lower their risk of osteoporosis, heart disease and breast cancer, this book translates the science of nutrition into practical advice on diet, vitamins, minerals and herbal remedies.
Some of the issues Leslie Beck addresses:
- hot flashes
- insomnia
- mood swings
- memory problems
- irregular periods
How should women manage their weight during the midlife years? The author reviews the latest "diet"trends and gives advice based on more than 10 years of private practice experience.
Based on the latest research, nutrition and herbal approaches are presented for lowering the risk of early heart disease, osteoporosis and breast cancer. Throughout the book, informative sidebars highlight research findings and offer practical nutrition tips. A must-read for all women!
"Finally, a map that women can use to chart their voyage through menopause, the natural way."
– Marilyn Linton, Health Editor, The Toronto Sun and author of Taking Charge by Taking Care: A Canadian Guide to Women's Health
