Dr. Whitaker M.D. - "Women face unique health problems throughout their lives, and conventional medicine's approach to these health problems has been less than exemplary. Much of what conventional medicine offers women can be described as either dangerous overtreatment — unnecessary surgeries like hysterectomies and Cesarean sections — or negligent undertreatment — ignoring easily managed problems like low libido, hot flashes, and stress incontinence."
Is Menopause Making You Crazy?
Few women know and truly understand all the alternatives, solutions, treatments, and practical help that is out there. Learn the latest information in medical research and alternative approaches to treating menopause symptoms. Menopause is brought on by low levels of estrogen and progesterone and can cause symptoms such as irregular periods, hot flashes, vaginal dryness, memory loss and difficulty concentrating, insomnia and fatigue, frequent urination, and mood swings. Many women going through the change of life opt for menopause natural remedies for various reasons. Most women choose menopause natural remedies because they are worried about the adverse-side effects of conventional medicine.  more

The Hysterectomy Hoax 

Dr Stanley West M.D,  infertility specialist, chief of reproductive endocrinology at St Vincent's Hospital, New York, and author of The Hysterectomy Hoax, says that about 90 per cent of all hysterectomies are unnecessary. Gynaecological consultants to Ralph Nader's Public Health Research Group reached a similar conclusion in 1991 in their book, Women's Health Alert.

Dr West says that the only 100-per-cent-appropriate reason for performing an hysterectomy is for treating cancer of the reproductive organs.3 However, hysterectomies are all too frequently offered as treatment for a variety of conditions including endometriosis, fibroids, ovarian cysts, pelvic inflammatory disease and uterine prolapse. An estimated 76% of women who are hysterectomized and castrated at the same time. The removed uterus and ovaries, however, are commonly found to be perfectly normal. What is worse, some women have never consented to the removal of any of these organs. And according to the HERS Foundation Data Bank, 99.7% percent of women in an ongoing study were given little or no prior information about the acknowledged adverse effects of hysterectomy - information that is a legal requisite of consent.

Estrogen's Deadly Truth...a story of deception, betrayal, hidden agendas, propaganda and misinformation  by Sherrill Sellman
Dr Lee has compiled a list of side-effects and physiological impairments which result from taking oestrogen. They include increased risk of endometrial cancer, increased body fat, salt and fluid retention, depression and headaches, impaired blood-sugar control (hypoglycaemia), loss of zinc and retention of copper, reduced oxygen levels in all cells, thickened bile and promoted gall bladder disease, increased likelihood of breast fibrocysts and uterine fibroids, interference with thyroid activity, decreased sex drive, excessive blood-clotting, reduced vascular tone, endometriosis, uterine cramping, infertility, and restraint of osteoclast function. more on estrogen's deadly truth: myths of osteoporosis

With so many side-effects and dangerous complications, a woman must think very carefully about the HRT decision. Unfortunately, most doctors will tell her that there is no other alternative. While certainly most doctors are well-meaning and sincerely concerned about their patients, their primary source of education and product information comes directly from the pharmaceutical companies. Since most women also lack essential education and understanding about their options, menopause can be perceived as a rather frightening and perilous time.

An excerpt from. Dr. John Lee's Transcript
John Lee MD - "I saw these patients who were on estrogen and they were getting swollen breasts and fibrosistic breast disease, they were getting fat around their middle, their hips, their abdomen, losing libido and getting depressed. When they traveled any place and they were sitting any period of time their feet would swell they'd have water retention and all that. And it struck me that there's something wrong here. 

Also I had patients who couldn't take any estrogen because they've already had breast cancer or diabetes or vascular disorders or obesity, there's all sorts of counter indications for estrogen, gall bladder disease, migraines, hypertension, it goes on and on. So I had patients with osteoporosis who couldn't take estrogen and I was wondering, "what can I do for these patients?" "I can tell them to eat a good diet, I can put them on calcium, I can put them on Vitamin D, I can try and get them off cigarettes" and all these things you're supposed to do. But we knew from the bone mineral density that that was not enough. Bones needed something or they were going to get osteoporosis. 

...In my research over the years, learning about progesterone I discovered brain cells concentrate progesterone and testosterone to levels 20 times higher than the blood carries. Now, brain cells wouldn't do this unless the progesterone or testosterone has some function in the brain cell. Why go to the work of drawing that progesterone in, holding it against an osmotic gradient, getting it through the cell membrane into the brain cell unless there is some reason for it? 

So now I understood why some of my patients who gave this to their elder mothers and aunts who were in nursing homes, they gave it to them for their bones or because it's so wonderful for skin, it hydrates skin again, makes skin much better, these elderly women all became much more alert and aware. Women who were content to just to lie in bed all day and couldn't keep track of the conversation with their niece or whatever, after a week or so of being on progesterone they're up leading discussions on the headlines and the latest in book reviews.

The classic bestseller that has helped nearly a million women discover the answer to menopause is now revised and updated. Hot flashes, night sweats, weight gain, low sex drive, hair loss, fibroids, and osteoporosis-most women will experience these or other hormone- related problems at some point as they age. In clear, easy-to-understand language, an internationally recognized expert explains the benefits of using progesterone and other natural hormones to reduce or eliminate menopausal symptoms safely and effectively-without the harmful side effects created by commonly used synthetic hormone replacement therapy (HRT). Dr. Lee explains why conventional HRT drugs can be harmful and offers an easy-to-follow non-prescription 'Hormone Balance' program that tells readers how to stay energized, strong, and sexually vigorous during the menopausal years and beyond.

The Hormonally Vulnerable Woman: Relief at last for PMS, mood swings, fatigue, hair loss, adult acne, unwanted hair, female pain, migraine, weight gain, ... all the problems of perimenopause 

According to Geoffrey Redmond, M.D., a majority of the 42 million American women between the ages of thirty-five and fifty-five suffer from vulnerability to their own hormones. Appearance, emotions -- and even sex drive -- may be affected. Symptoms include thinning hair, persistent acne, mood swings, low energy, loss of pleasure in sex, weight gain, irregular periods, and pain. While the media has emphasized the problems of menopause, Dr. Redmond explains that all too many women experience hormonal miseries even in their thirties. Lab tests are often normal because the problem is not the hormones themselves but how a woman's body reacts to them. Healthy, active women suddenly find that once quiescent hormones have taken over control of their lives. Because their problems are often dismissed as trivial, women who are hormonally vulnerable are frequently thwarted in their quest for help. Too often they are brushed off with remarks such as, "Your tests are normal; there's nothing wrong with you." This is tragic because, as Dr. Redmond demonstrates, hormonal balance can nearly always be restored with the treatments he details, which include individualized use of prescription medications, herbal supplements, lifestyle changes, and even spiritual practices. Many women have heard that testosterone can help sex drive, but most have not been warned about the damage that careless testosterone therapy can cause on skin and hair.

"I have suffered from mouth ulcers for years and have not had an outbreak since taking Marine Phytoplankton. I was taking prescription heartburn pills that I no longer need. I was in a car accident a few years ago and could never get rid of the inflammation and pain in my right leg, now it is completely gone. I suffered from hives this January and could not get rid of them. I tried all kinds of medication, prescription creams and herbal medicines. This only seemed to keep them from getting worst but did not get rid of them. They are now gone. I put Marine Phytoplankton directly on them. I rub a little of Marine Phytoplankton on my spider and veracious veins and they are going away. I have taken sinus medicine everyday for the past couple of years. My sinuses were so bad that it would wake me up at night because they were draining down my throat. I have not taken any since starting Marine Phytoplankton. I have been wearing reading glasses (2.50) but now they are too strong and I have had to go to 2.00. I also have bifocals that I can't wear anymore because they are too strong. I am going to the eye doctor next month and can't wait to find out what happens. I recently found out I have type 2 diabetes and since taking Marine Phytoplankton my sugar levels are great. I have lots of energy and my weight is coming down. I had perimenopause, which is having all the symptoms of menopause before you actually get menopause. All the symptoms are gone. I have a couple of cysts that I've had for years and they are about half the size now. I had a fingernail that split down the middle and now it's fine. I had ridges that developed on my nails, I was told this was just from age, but they are now gone. I had four toenails that had grown very thick and one that cracked down the middle, and now the thickness is gone and as my nail is growing the crack is disappearing. A few months ago I noticed my hair was starting to turn grey just around the hairline, it has turn back to my natural color. I developed a discoloration on my face about the size of a quarter. I put Marine Phytoplankton directly on it and it is going away. It's down to the size of a dime. Cheryl J.

Dr. Jerry Tennant, M.D. says that marine phytoplankton contains almost everything one needs to sustain life and to restore health by providing the raw materials to make new cells that function normally. Marine phytoplankton has been called "the most nutritionally dense foods on the planet". Containing a wide range of trace elements, amino acids, vitamins, minerals, chlorophyll, enzymes and cellular materials, marine phytoplankton promotes and maintains optimum health by boosting and supporting all systems within the body. Its antioxidants and unique polysaccharides can halt the genetic mutations that can lead to cancer. Both high levels of saccharides and adaptogens increase energy and stamina by improving our ability to consume and use oxygen. Adaptogens also improve cardiovascular health by strengthening the heart and circulation.  more about marine phytoplankton's healing power . Profound Life-Giving Properties of Marine Phytoplankton

The Hysterectomy Hoax: The Truth About Why Many Hysterectomies Are Unnecessary and How to Avoid Them   Dr Stanley West M.D

While more than 600,000 hysterectomies are performed each year in the United States, 90 percent of them are unwarranted. This vital health guide offers women the information they need to empower themselves in making critical health decisions. For example, surgery can often do more harm than good and may pose needless risks, except in situations involving a life-threatening illness such as cancer. However, surgeons often rely on hysterectomies as a panacea for everything from premenstrual syndrome to uterine fibroids. An important step in bridging the communication gap between patient and physician are the specific questions in this book for women to ask their doctors. Included is information about various gynecological conditions with suggestions for alternative treatments, such as endometriosis, uterine prolapse, ovarian cysts, and precancerous conditions.

"Read this book before you agree to having a hysterectomy. I have had two doctors recommend that I undergo hysterectomy. I refuse. A woman's uterus is her vital female organ, and there is no reason to have it removed unless there is cancer present. Find a physician who is skilled at performing myomectomies, or consider embolization, but don't let them cut out your uterus. Dr. West gives clear, eye-opening information, and much detail to allow a woman to make an informed decision. Dr. West also gives important information about the after-effects of having a hysterectomy. This is one of the most important books that a woman will ever read."
 

Natural Progesterone: The Multiple Roles of a Remarkable Hormone 

For the past 15 years, Dr Lee has conducted independent research into a natural, plant-derived form of progesterone. His non-pharmaceutically-funded research presents a much broader understanding of a woman's hormonal options and offers a totally safe, effective alternative that is free of all side-effects. He has found that this natural hormone-used in conjunction with a good diet and lifestyle changes-is capable of eliminating much of the suffering associated both with premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and menopause. Thousands of women in the Western world now use natural progesterone-generally in the form of a non-prescription cream which is rubbed into the body. They claim that they not only have relief from female symptoms but experience increased vitality, better skin and renewed emotional balance.

Natural progesterone seems to have been totally overlooked by medical science while the erroneous focus has been on oestrogen. Considering that it is non-patentable and inexpensive, it not surprising that this is so. It is important, however, to have a much greater understanding and appreciation for this remarkable hormone.

At this point, it is important to make the distinction between the natural progesterone that is produced by the body and the synthetic progesterone analogues classified as progestins, such as Provera, Duphaston and Primulut. As you will learn, there is a big difference between the two in their effect in the body, although doctors most often use their names interchangeably. Since natural progesterone is not a patentable product, the pharmaceutical companies have molecularly altered it to produce synthetic progestins commonly used in contraceptives and HRT. 

Synthetic progestins, because they are not exact replicas of the body's natural progesterone, unfortunately create a long list of side effects, some of which are quite severe. A partial list includes headaches, depression, fluid retention, increased risk of birth defects and early abortion, liver dysfunction, breast tenderness, breakthrough bleeding, acne, hirsutism (hair growth), insomnia, edema, weight changes, pulmonary embolism and premenstrual-like syndrome. 

Most importantly, progestins lack the intrinsic physiological benefits of progesterone, thus they cannot function in the major biosynthetic pathways as progesterone does and they disrupt many fundamental processes in the body. Progesterone is an essential hormone that also plays a part in the development of healthy nerve cells and brain and thyroid function. Progestins tend to block the body's ability to produce and utilize natural progesterone to maintain these life promoting functions. " HORMONE HERESY:Estrogen's Deadly Truth

Hormone Balancing A Delicate Balancing Act

Since the beginning of time, women everywhere have had to deal with the unpleasantries of hormone imbalance. Such symptoms include: PMS, weight gain, water retention, headaches, mood swings, cramping, depression, and many, many others.  Later in life, the prevention of osteoporosis, heart disease, endometriosis, and female cancers must be carefully examined.  Complete female system balance is now available. FemRite is a part of that balance. FemRite may be one of the most important new product discoveries a woman will find in her life.  The active ingredients, natural progesterone and diosgenin work with your body’s own system to achieve and maintain system balance. 

Female Formula - Each of the glands and organs of the female system are nutrient dependent. Whenever a critical element is in short supply, hormone production is slowed and homeostasis, the body’s sense of balance and wellness, is disturbed. Minerals are often the limiting nutrient in hormone production. Female Formula provides nutritional support to the reproductive organs, promoting female hormone production and balance.

The pH Miracle for Weight Loss: Balance Your Body Chemistry, Achieve Your Ideal Weight

Dr. Young PhD,  maintain that the primary culprit behind excessive weight gain, as well as many other health problems, is a chronic state of acidity in the body (a pH value below 7.1). Shifting the body’s chemistry to a more alkaline pH, they maintain, will quickly and easily result in the loss of excess weight and the buildup of more lean muscle tissue. The Alkalizing Diet: Your Life Is In The Balance 

The acid-alkaline balance of the body has an enormous impact on a person’s health. The pH level (acid - alkaline measurement) of our internal fluids affects every cell in our bodies. Chronic acidity will interrupt all cellular activities and functions - it interferes with life itself. When the pH of the body gets out of balance (too acidic), we may experience low energy, fatigue, excess weight, poor digestion, aches and pains, and even more serious disorders. When the body is excessively acidic, vital organs and individual cells are subject to damage or destruction. This condition, known as acidosis, can be a cause, an effect, or even a symptom of almost any health condition. By balancing the body's acidity levels, this simple plan can help toward curing various medical conditions, including arthritis, hepatitis, insomnia, alcoholism, and kidney disease. This page addresses the acid-alkaline balance and includes steps the visitor can take to maintain or regain this essential balance.

From 1999 to 2004 nearly 2% of women aged 35 to 54 suffered from a stroke compared to the prior Federal health Surveys from 1994 to 1998 in which less that 1% of women had the same condition.. No risk factors such as smoking, heart disease or diabetes had changed between surveys. What has changed is women’s waistlines! They are two inches bigger. Their body mass index (BMI) rose from 27 to 29. Dr Miller says your shoulders should be 10 inches wider than your waistline. Drink the Holy Tea and dump the toxins. Eat nuts, seeds, fruits and vegetables to prevent stoke. And exercise with good hydration

Matthew Silver, MD  - "An associate in her early fifties who had suffered for many years from the toxic effects of chlorine poisoning from inhaling vapors from an over-chlorinated swimming pool. This had resulted in many severe health challenges including extreme chronic fatigue and breathing difficulty that kept her housebound and dependent on oxyn. Even minimal exertion led to extreme shortness of breath. After just three days of drinking glyconutrients, she reported that all of her symptoms improved dramatically and that she was able to leave her house without oxygen and work in her garden, which she had not been able to do in years."  The sugars found on all Glyconutrients (saccharides) also address the workings of the brain and nervous system – from memory and sleep to anxiety and depression.

 

What About Conventional Treatment for Menopause Symptoms? 
Dr. Whitaker M.D.

Women face unique health problems throughout their lives, and conventional medicine's approach to these health problems has been less than exemplary. Much of what conventional medicine offers women can be described as either dangerous overtreatment — unnecessary surgeries like hysterectomies and Cesarean sections — or negligent undertreatment — ignoring easily managed problems like low libido, hot flashes, and stress incontinence. 

The most common form of estrogen given to postmenopausal women is conjugated estrogen, which is made from the urine of pregnant mares, and the most popular brand of conjugated estrogen is Premarin. This type of estrogen is great for horses, but not for women. Likewise, the most popular form of progesterone given to postmenopausal women, Provera, isn't actually progesterone at all -- it's a synthetic compound called progestin, and it has more than 30 negative side effects listed in the Physicians' Desk Reference, the doctors' Bible of drug information. 

You can prevent the health problems associated with menopause by using the many natural hormone replacement products available that are far safer and just as effective as their synthetic counterparts. Most conventional doctors will not tell you about natural HRT as an option, so it's up to you to request natural hormones from your doctor. 

Dr. Mercola - "Supplements that contain concentrated phytoestrogens -- plant-based estrogens found in soy -- do not appear to improve mood, memory or menopause symptoms in women over age 45." Contrary to popular belief that soy is a health food, evidence reveals that soy consumption has been linked to numerous disorders, including infertility, increased cancer and infantile leukemia, Type1 diabetes, and  precocious puberty in children have been fed soy formula. (early maturation, such as breast development and menstruation as early as 6 years of age). Scientists have known for years that the isoflavones in soy products can depress thyroid function and cause goiters in otherwise healthy children and adults. A combined research team of Cornell University Medical College and Long Island Community Hospital medical experts have found that children who develop Type1 diabetes are twice as likely to have been fed soy formulas as those fed all other foods  This confirms concerns based on animal studies raised in the 1980's and 1990s by Health Canada researcher Dr Fraser Scott and led to the American Academy of Pediatrics issuing their warning to pediatricians against any use of soy based formulas. Newest Research On Why You Should Avoid Soy

Linda Page, N.D. Ph.D  "Premarin, an estrogen replacement drug for menopausal women made from pregnant mare's urine, is the top selling drug of any kind in the U.S. But justifiable controversy about synthetic hormone replacementmay mean that the threat of breast and uterine cancer is dramatically increased with HRT. In 51 studies covering 21 countries involving more than 52,000 women with breast cancer and 108,000 women without breast cancer, women who used Premarin for 5 years or longer had a 35% higher risk of developing cancer than women who had never been on HRT. (Good news! The higher risk for breast cancer diminished and largely disappeared after about 5 years off HRT treatment.) Most women don't know that Premarin, is made from pregnant mare's urine, and that the mares are kept in horrendous conditions - their foals are sold for slaughter. Premarin is the most prescribed of all drugs in America today. The mares are artificially inseminated and forced to spend their 11-month pregnancies in stalls so small they cannot turn. If they try to lie down, their heads are jolted upright by their halter chains. Long lines of pregnant horses stand, chained and strapped into cramped concrete and steel pens like rows of four-legged galley slaves. They shuffle uncomfortably from hoof to hoof. A forlorn look fills their eyes as they stare. Their coats are dull, their ears droopy - tell-tale signs of a horse's misery. Many get sore, swollen legs or become crippled from standing, months on end, in their tiny concrete stalls. The mares are kept constantly thirsty. They are denied water so that their urine becomes thick."  more on premarin and the horse

Natural Remedies for Menopause

A number of  supplements can be taken to prevent, lessen, or even reverse the symptoms of peri and actual menopause.

Others contain plant estrogens, which do not appear to disturb the progesterone/estrogen balance. 

  1. Herbal and Homeopathic remedies for menopause combination of ingredients make it effective for not only hormone balancing, but helps with other menopausal symptoms such as irritability, mood swings and insomnia.
  2. Flaxseed oil is at the top of the list for prostaglandin replenishment. It is an excellent remedy for depression and fatigue, and it is also good for the skin and the immune system. Additionally, flaxseed oil is known to lower cholesterol and to make insulin more effective.
  3. Marine phytoplankton Dr. Jerry Tennant, M.D. says that marine phytoplankton contains almost everything one needs to sustain life and to restore health by providing the raw materials to make new cells that function normally. These nutrients improve hormonal balance, mental function, and memory. They reduce depression, harmful effects of stress, and mood swings. 
  4. Evening primrose oil can alleviate symptoms of perimenopause that surface around the time of the menstrual cycle, such as headaches, cramping, irritability, and water retention.
  5. Calcium citrate with magnesium or Coral Calcium, a gift from the bottom of the sea  are important supplements during the Change, and should be taken in reasonable amounts. 
  6. Coral Calcium comes from the Sango Reefs Coral reefs surround islands everywhere in the world, but the coral reefs surrounding Okinawa have proved to be like no other. Coral Calcium has a natural pH range of 10-11 and has an alkalizing effect on the body, which can be of great support to those who need to offset acidity levels.  Out of over 2,500 varieties of coral in the world, only the Sango Coral contains an organic composition identical to that of the human skeleton, including calcium, magnesium, sodium and potassium and many other microscopic elements essential to human life. It  is widely used for bone grafts throughout the world. Because coral calcium is ionic and readily bioavailable, it does not become a free radical in the process and donates electrons to repair the damaged cells
  7. Other supplements which are beneficial during menopause are royal jelly and bee pollen
  8. Fulvic Acid and Shilajit. Scientists theorize that mineral deficiency subjects us to more diseases, aging, sickness and destruction of our physical well-being than any other factor in personal health. A great many known aliments, around 60, are directly linked to mineral deficiency. To the science of living cells, fulvic acids are vital in bringing substantial amounts of nutrients and minerals into water solution and delivering their living energies to the living cells. Fulvic acid assists every stage of cellular metabolism and is the most powerful, natural electrolyte known. It restores electrical balance to damaged cells, neutralizes toxins and can eliminate food poisoning within minutes. more

Women along with medical experts and researchers are finding natural progesterone cream solves your menopausal and PMS related problems.  Most importantly, medical researchers report that natural progesterone counteracts estrogen dominance.  Dr. Lee started to use progesterone cream to treat the symptoms of PMS and menopause and achieved impressive results. Hundreds of women have written enthusiastic letters to Dr. Lee telling him how their PMS and menopause symptoms disappeared when they used progesterone cream (hot flashes, fibrocystic lumps, poor libido, mood swings and much more.)
  12. Zinc also helps to increase progesterone levels and lower estrogen. Between 15 and 50 mg a day should be taken to optimize the immune system and build strong bones.
  13. Goji  In Traditional Chinese Medicine, many menopause symptoms are ascribed to a deficiency of kidney yin. For ages, Goji (lycium) has been the yin tonic of choice to restore hormonal balance. 
  14. Vitamin B6 increases progesterone levels and enhances serotonin production to create a sense of calm. 
  15. Vitamin E is a mild form of hormone replacement therapy in a bottle.
  16. Vitamin C, especially Ester C in large amounts (up to 5,000 mg a day taken in divided doses throughout the day) is a must for keeping the immune system in tip-top shape.


At 37 years old, I began to experience early menopause and suffered from many of its symptoms -- hot flashes, food cravings, leg cramps, restlessness, anxiety and emotional instability.  I was desperate to resolve these symptoms and began my search.  HRT was an option, but I have always preferred the most natural approach to health and healing; when I learned that this company had a product that may support me, I was thrilled as I was already very impressed with the results I'd had from taking glyconutrients. I began taking a phytosterol product (glyconutrients)  as part of the Optimal Health System at the end of January 2002.  I took far beyond the recommended dosages in order to reach a place of physical comfort.  As you may know, hormones can take quite some time to regulate.  My symptoms decreased gradually. After 4 months, I no longer experienced any of the symptoms my doctor had attributed to perimenopause.  After 8 months, the length of my menstrual cycle has increased by 5 days to what it was prior to my son's birth. These products have greatly improved my quality of life; I feel at least 10 years younger! more

What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Premenopause : Balance Your Hormones and Your Life from Thirty to Fifty by John R. Lee MD 

"PREVENT A HYSTERECTOMY: I write this after just having had surgery (abdominal hysterectomy) two weeks ago ... and having come across the book only two weeks prior to surgery. If only two or three months ago I'd been aware of Dr. Lee's book, I truly believe my hysterectomy could have been prevented, nevertheless, refusing my doctor's recommended HRT, I tried the progesterone cream and was amazed with the immediate results: headaches were alleviated; improved mental acuity, energy, and skin tone. Had I known of the book's contents 15 years ago, I believe I would have saved myself from not only surgery and fibrous breast tissue, but numerous other debilitating ailments: migraines, clinical depression, fatigue, lack of concentration along with other symptoms which Dr. Lee listed due to estrogen dominance."amazon.com reveiwer

Natural progesterone cream can help balance hormones Natural estrogen does not exist in the body in a vacuum -- progesterone interacts with and mediates the effects of this hormone. Yet many physicians put women on estrogen replacement alone. This is a mistake. Balancing estrogen with progesterone, in concentrations similar to those of the premenopausal state, is important for the health of your bones, heart, breast tissue and uterus. 

Menopause is the point at which women stop ovulating. The menopausal period affects each woman differently. Some start early, some start and stop, but most experience the change around the age of fifty. It usually lasts up to five years. Although estrogen levels drop during the post menopausal period, the hormones do not disappear. Stress puts a burden on the adrenal glands, causing them to overwork. Therefore, the adrenals produce smaller amounts of the hormones that are needed to help reduce the side effects of menopause. Hot flashes can be the result of widespread blood vessel dilation. There’s a growing interest in the natural approach to minimizing the effects of menopause. Many women are concerned about the side effects of conventional medicine and are finding herbal solutions meet their needs remarkably well.

Before The Change offers the first complete do-it-yourself program for managing PERIMENOPAUSE - the Period of about 10 years leading up to menopause - with proven techniques for understanding and controlling its symptoms without powerful drugs or hormone treatments. "After feeling lousy (headaches, mood swings, anxiety, depression, insomnia, etc.) since the age of 37 (now 43), I had tried everything conceivable to help myself to feel better with minimal and non-lasting results. In early January I happenened to come across this book on the net. I immediately purchased this book and then devoured it in all of 2 days, practially highlighting 2/3's of it. I can't tell you how many times, while reading it, I would say to myself, "why don't doctor's and Gyn's tell you this stuff?

One of Dr. Gittleman's recommendations is to increase magnesium intake to help regulate haywire hormones. One "snack food" that is just loaded with magnesium is almonds. I hadn't eaten almonds in years due to their fat content, but I decided to give almonds a try anyway.

And guess what? They worked! And quickly too. Within one month of adding a daily serving of almonds to my diet, my periods regulated again both in frequency and in intensity. The cold flashes subsided too.

" I've been following the plan religously for almost 4 weeks, and ladies, I can hardly believe it myself, but I haven't felt this good in 6 years! To say I am feeling 100% better would not be an exaggeration. All of my sypmtoms of perimenopuase have improved dramatically. Doctors and Gyn's PLEASE READ THIS BOOK so you can be of better help to your patients AND advertise this book in your offices - it will enable all woman to better help themselves during this time of their lives and you just may find yourselves writing less prescriptions for anti-anxiety and anti-depressive drugs (yeah, I know, the pharmaceutical companies don't like to hear that). Ladies, do yourself the biggest favor and RUN, don't walk, and get your hands on this book" A reviewer from amazon.com


HORMONE HERESY:Estrogen's Deadly Truth  Dr. John Lee MD, author of What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Menopause

  • "Myth #1: Osteoporosis is a calcium-deficiency disease. Most women with osteoporosis are getting plenty of calcium in their diet. It is quite easy to get the minimum daily requirement of calcium in even a relatively poor diet. The truth is that osteoporosis is a disease of excessive calcium-loss caused by many factors. In osteoporosis, calcium is being lost from the bones faster than it is being added, regardless of how much calcium a woman consumes.

  • more on calcium
  • Myth #2: Osteoporosis is an estrogen-deficiency disease. Not even basic medical texts agree with this. It is a fabrication of the pharmaceutical industry with no scientific evidence to support it. Osteoporosis begins long before estrogen levels fall, and accelerates for a few years at menopause. Taking estrogen can slow bone-loss for those few years, but its effect wears off within a few years after menopause. Most importantly, estrogen cannot rebuild new bone. 
  • Myth #3: Osteoporosis is a disease of menopause. This is at least a decade short of the truth. Osteoporosis begins anywhere from five to 20 years prior to menopause, when estrogen levels are still high. Osteoporosis accelerates at menopause or when a woman's ovaries are surgically removed or become non-functional, such as can happen after hysterectomy. It is staggering to think how many thousands or millions of women have been doomed to a crippled old age or early death because their ovaries and/or uterus were unnecessarily removed before menopause and natural progesterone replacement was ignored. "
"To understand osteoporosis it is important to know a bit about bones. Bone-forming cells are of two different kinds. One type are called osteoclasts, and their job is to travel through the bone in search of old bone that is in need of renewal. Osteoclasts dissolve bone and leave behind tiny unfilled spaces. Osteoblasts move into these spaces in order to build new bone. A lack of estrogens, as experienced at menopause, indirectly stimulates the growth of osteoclasts, thus increasing the risk for developing osteoporosis. HRT containing estrogen should therefore help prevent osteoporosis. From this point of view it does. However, osteoclast cells have been shown to have no estrogen receptors in themselves, so cannot directly build new bone. On the other hand, osteoblast cells, which are responsible for making new bone, have been shown to have not estrogen but progesterone receptors. What this means is that it is progesterone (the natural form, not the synthetic progestins), not estrogen, which is responsible for building bone tissue. This view is upheld in the Scientific American Updated Medicine Text 1991, which states, "Estrogens decrease bone resorption, but associated with the decrease in bone resorption is a decrease in bone formation. Therefore, estrogen should not be expected to increase bone mass." The authors also discuss estrogen side-effects, including the risk of endometrial cancer which "is increased six-fold in women who receive estrogen therapy for up to five years; the risk is increased to fifteen-fold in long-term users." Dr. Kitty Little from Oxford found masses of tiny clots in the bones of rabbits treated with hormones. She is convinced that HRT in the form of estrogen and progestins will increase the risk of osteoporosis. Blood clots originate from sticky clumps of platelet cells in the blood. She believes that blood clots in the bones can cause bone to break down, leading to osteoporosis. (16) 

More and more research findings are emerging that challenge the estrogen-deficiency/osteoporosis relationship and reinforce the progesterone-deficiency link. The results of a three-year study of 63 post-menopausal women with osteoporosis verify this. Women using transdermal progesterone cream experienced an average 7 to 8 per cent bone-mass density increase in the first year, 4 to 5 per cent in the second year, and 3 to 4 per cent in the third year! Untreated women in this age category typically lose 1.5 per cent bone-mass density per year! These results have not been found with any other form of hormone replacement therapy or dietary supplementation! (17) 

Bone loss is the result of many other factors besides progesterone deficiency. Excess protein in the form of meat and dairy products (contrary to the dairy industry's advertising) contributes to bone loss. An acidic condition is created in the blood which then pulls out calcium from the bones to neutralize it. Another major factor is lack of exercise. Bone growth is dependent on weight- bearing exercise. In addition, sugar, diuretics, antibiotics, fluoride, cigarettes, alcohol abuse and cortisone are all deleterious to bones. To sum it up, post-menopausal osteoporosis is a disease of excess bone-loss caused by a progesterone deficiency and, secondarily, by a poor diet and lack of exercise. Progesterone restores bone mass. Natural progesterone hormone is an essential factor in the prevention and proper treatment of osteoporosis at any age.

December, 1964:   Dr. Benjamin H. Ershoff, begins NASA-sponsored research prompted by evidence that astronauts' bodies lose large amounts of calcium from the bones under conditions of weightlessness. According to doctors, such conditions weaken the body and increase chances that kidney stones may develop during flights lasting months or years. Ershoff found that supplementing the diet with calcium alone couldn't reverse the severe damage of severely accelerated osteoporosis--but clay did, for animals.  Especially the red desert clay, Red Desert™ clay, produced impressive results in promoting growth and preventing disorders in the bones of tested animals, Ershoff said.  When a small percentage of the Red Desert™ clay was added to the diet, Ershoff said, the animals' body weight increased and bone diseases were prevented.  Little or no benefits were noted, he said, when calcium alone was added. "This means that the clay supplement contained some factor or factors other than calcium which promoted improved calcium utilization and bone formation," he explained. Ershoff added that the consumption of clay has been observed among many peoples and animals for centuries, especially in areas where there is a marked deficiency of calcium, iron and other minerals in the diet. more

Osteoporosis and Arthritis linked to fluoride  Scientists at EPA in Washington have declared that there is every reason to believe that the increasing numbers of people with carpal-tunnel syndrome and arthritis-like pains are due to the mass fluoridation of drinking water. On July 9, 1998 the Manchester Guardian reported news of fluoride poisoned water in Central India, from untested wells drilled in the 1980s, causing severe arthritic damage to tens of millions of people -- a national disaster. Fluoride is the most bone seeking element known to mankind. The US Public Health Service has stated that fluoride makes the bones more brittle and dental enamel more porous.

Protecting Your Bones Naturally   Study show that women who got the most calcium from dairy products actually broke more bones than women who rarely drank milk. The bone-thinning condition called osteoporosis can lead to small and not-so-small fractures. Although many people think of calcium in the diet as good protection for their bones, this is not at all the whole story. In fact, in a 12-year Harvard study of 78,000 women, those who got the most calcium from dairy products actually broke more bones than women who rarely drank milk. Similarly, a 1994 study of elderly men and women in Sydney, Australia, showed that higher dairy product consumption was associated with increased fracture risk. Those with the highest dairy product consumption had approximately double the risk of hip fracture compared to those with the lowest consumption. To protect your bones you do need calcium in your diet, but you also need to keep calcium in your bones. more

ALERT!
Soy Supplements Fail to Help Menopause Symptoms
 Soy is promoted as a healthy alternative to estrogen replacement for some women as a way to minimize menopause symptoms, and as a healthier, low-fat protein alternative for meats and poultry. But what all the positive stories fail to mention is that there is a very real -- but very overlooked -- downside to the heavy or long-term use of soy products. Soy products increase the risk of thyroid disease. And this danger is particularly great for infants on soy formula. This is not information that the powerful and profitable U.S. soy industry wants you to know. The sale of soy products is big business, and the increasing demand for soy protein products, soy powders and soy isoflavone supplements is making that an even more profitable business than ever before. 

Supplements that contain concentrated phytoestrogens -- plant-based estrogens found in soy -- do not appear to improve mood, memory or menopause symptoms in women over age 45. Contrary to popular belief that soy is a health food, evidence reveals that soy consumption has been linked to numerous disorders, including infertility, increased cancer and infantile leukemia, Type1 diabetes, and  precocious puberty in children have been fed soy formula. (early maturation, such as breast development and menstruation as early as 6 years of age). Scientists have known for years that the isoflavones in soy products can depress thyroid function and cause goiters in otherwise healthy children and adults. A combined research team of Cornell University Medical College and Long Island Community Hospital medical experts have found that children who develop Type1 diabetes are twice as likely to have been fed soy formulas as those fed all other foods  This confirms concerns based on animal studies raised in the 1980's and 1990s by Health Canada researcher Dr Fraser Scott and led to the American Academy of Pediatrics issuing their warning to pediatricians against any use of soy based formulas.

What About Hormone Replacement Therapy?  by Linda Page, N.D. Ph.D.
An excerpt from Dr. Page's website

Are you considering taking hormones for menopause symptoms? If you are in your 40's or 50's, and are about to be confronted with the great Hormone Replacement Therapy(HRT) choice, consider carefully. Of the women in menopause today, about half start synthetic hormone replacement, but only half of those stick with it because of the side effects or fear of cancer risk.

I don't believe hormone replacement is the best course for most women. Beyond increased cancer risk, HRT causes many side effects. Weight gain (especially fatty deposits on the hips and thighs), heavy bleeding (worse than a woman's former period), PMS-like symptoms, migraine headaches, uterine and breast fibroids, and low libido are all reported by women taking hormone drugs. Unless you have specific, extenuating circumstances (only about 6% of American women do), a natural menopause may be the best way. Even women who don't have a symptom-free menopause say they feel younger and more energetic when they address their menopausal changes with natural remedies. If you are about to be confronted with the great Hormone Replacement Therapy choice, consider carefully before you agree. Once again, less estrogen production (especially estradiol), during menopause may be Nature's way of protecting women from hormone-involved diseases like breast and uterine fibroids, endometriosis, and breast, ovarian or uterine cancers.

I believe plant hormones may be the best answer. The best option, in my opinion, is a combination of phyto-hormone (estriol) rich herbs that can help a broad spectrum of a woman's needs during menopause. Around the world, in every culture throughout history, plant hormones have helped support women through the discomforts of menopause. Plants like wild yams, and herbs like black cohosh, ginseng, licorice root and dong quai, have a safety record of centuries.

Estrogen dominance, women's problems and menopause by Julia Chang, M.Sc 

Excessive estrogens and stagnation of blood circulation are the major cause of most women's problems including breast, uterine and ovarian cancers. We are living in a polluted world where estrogens are present in almost every type of food that we eat. Since the liver is the organ that removes estrogens, a weak liver that fails to remove estrogens efficiently may lead to their accumulation . When excessive estrogens become trapped in the uterus, ovary, or breast due to stagnation, they overstimulate cell division and lead to abnormal growth such as fibroids, cysts or cancer in these organs. Estrogens may also be accumulated in the brain or liver because they both have estrogen receptors. (click headline to learn about liver cleansing and strengthening)


Healthy circulatory system

There are simple, easy and all-natural solutions for maintaining a healthy circulatory system. Eating a healthy, high-fiber diet, exercising regularly, staying trim and avoiding standing for long periods of time all help maintain blood vessel stability. In addition to these lifestyle changes, scientific research shows that a concentrated, standardized extract from the seeds of the Horse Chestnut (Aesculus hippocastanum L.) tree helps maintain strong capillaries and veins — especially those in the legs.



The nightmare of Premarin (HRT)
Linda Page, N.D. Ph.D.

Premarin, is made from pregnant mare's urine, and that the mares are kept in horrendous conditions - their foals are sold for slaughter. Premarin is the most prescribed of all drugs in America today. Most women don't know what Premarin is made of or how it is made. Today, there are 484 horse factories located in Southern and Central Canada and North Dakota which hold about 75,000 horses. The biggest Percherons and Clydesdales and large thoroughbreds are used - the noblest of horses - the larger the mare, the more urine and estrogen they can produce.

The mares are artificially inseminated and forced to spend their 11-month pregnancies in stalls so small they cannot turn. If they try to lie down, their heads are jolted upright by their halter chains. Long lines of pregnant horses stand, chained and strapped into cramped concrete and steel pens like rows of four-legged galley slaves. They shuffle uncomfortably from hoof to hoof. A forlorn look fills their eyes as they stare. Their coats are dull, their ears droopy - tell-tale signs of a horse's misery. Many get sore, swollen legs or become crippled from standing, months on end, in their tiny concrete stalls.

The mares are kept constantly thirsty. They are denied water so that their urine becomes thick. If they were allowed to drink as much as a normal horse needs, it would over-dilute their estrogen. A rubber, medieval-looking "pee bag" and harness is strapped over the mares' vagina by elastic hoses, secured round their flanks and run over a pulley to the ceiling above them, causing sores which are left open and untreated. Most develop painful urinary tract infections due to the inhumane conditions.

This treatment is for their entire lives which only last for the years they are capable of foaling. Once they can no longer become pregnant, the mares will be shot for horsemeat - just like the majority of the unwanted foals to which they give birth - their reward for producing the billions of dollars made for the estrogen drugs prescribed to unsuspecting women.  In her wbsite, Dr. Page explains about safe and effective  alternatives to premarin.  more

Asian Medicine - Revive Your Sex Drive with Goji
What Drives Your Sex Drive? Your libido (sex drive) is regulated by the hormone testosterone. Although classified as a male hormone, testosterone is produced by both men and women. As you age, your body produces less testosterone. The result? Your interest in sex may diminish significantly.  The noted herbalist Ron Teeguarden reports that in Chinese studies, Goji (lycium) berry was shown to markedly increase testosterone levels in the blood, thereby increasing libido in both men and women. The Goji (lycium) berry is revered as one of the premier sexual tonic herbs in all of Asian medicine, and is legendary for helping to spark the passions. In fact, an old Chinese proverb cautions men who are traveling far from their wives and families: "He who travels one thousand kilometers from home should not eat Goji!” 

Ayurvedic Medicine - Optimizing women's total sexual health, libido, and pleasure
Ayurveda, the science of life, prevention and longevity, is the oldest and most holistic and comprehensive medical system available.  Its fundamentals can be found in Hindu scriptures called the Vedas - the ancient Indian books of wisdom written over 5,000 years ago.  Ayurveda uses the inherent principles of nature to help maintain health in a person by keeping the individual's body, mind and spirit in perfect equilibrium with nature. India Herbs has a seasoned group of Ayurvedic doctors specialized in Vajikarana, one of the eight major specialties of Ayurveda (the ancient science dealing with medicine).  Vajikarana prescribes the therapeutic use of various aphrodisiacs and tonic preparations for enhancing the reproductive capabilities and vigor of women while strengthening the body and overall well-being.  Vajikarana scientists combine a proprietary herbal formula based on centuries old wisdom with advice on diet, exercise, mental training, and relaxation to help women reach their peak and overcome sexual concerns through safe, natural means. The precise combination of ingredients in Kama Rani along with a mind-body focus precisely addresses the sexual concerns of women!

    Conquering Yeast Infections: The Non-Drug Solution

    People may have symptoms that appear totally unrelated to the candida such as irritable bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease, vaginal yeast infections, headaches with sinus involvement, histamine allergic reactions and thrush white tongue, to name a few. Remember, the mouth is the beginning of the GI tract and culinary sugars begin their work immediately on the teeth, gums and tissues through interaction with fungi. Sugar activates candida metabolism and some of its by-products are neurotoxins such as formaldehyde, alcohol and acetlyaldehyde. One's nervous system can become deranged during candida due to specific neurotoxins. Autism is one example of this. more

    Revisiting Accepted Wisdom in the Management of Breast Cancer

    "Misconceptions and illusions prevail in the management of breast cancer. Despite evidence that mastectomy, radiation following lumpectomy, axillary node dissection, or intensive follow-up surveillance have little impact on survival, these practices are adhered to tenaciously. The extent to which current treatment for breast cancer succeeds in prolonging life remains open to question. The imperative for doctors to do something sometimes contradicts their pledge to do no harm."

    Water The Great Healer and Detoxifier! 

    Water therapy has been used for centuries to heal the sick.  Hydro- and hydrothermal therapy are traditional methods of treatment that have been used for the treatment of disease and injury by many cultures, including those of ancient Rome, China, and Japan. The ancient Greeks took therapeutic baths. Water is an important ingredient in the traditional Chinese and Native American healing systems. more

    F. Batmanghelidj, M.D. - "Every function inside the body is regulated by and depends on water. Water must be available to carry vital elements, oxygen, hormones, and chemical messengers to all parts of the body. Without sufficient water to wet all parts equally, some more remote parts of the body will not receive the vital elements that water supplies. Water is also needed to carry toxic waste away from the cells. In fact, there are at least 50 reasons why the body needs sufficient water on a regular, everyday basis. Without sufficient water to constantly wet all parts, your body's drought-management system kicks into action. The histamine-directed chemical messenger systems are activated to arrange a new, lower quota of water for the drought-stricken areas. When histamine and its subordinate "drought managers" come across pain-sensing nerves, they cause pain. This is what I discovered in my research that I mentioned earlier." 

    Dr. Hidemitsu Hayashi, M.D.  - " Water has the ability to attract and accumulate bio-energy. It also stores an energy memory of harmful or helpful vibrations to which it was exposed in the past.  Chlorinated tap water is polluted with non-biological chemicals and negative energy imprints. It is also devoid of bio-energy and so may be regarded as being badly polluted as well as 'dead'. Alkaline living water is regarded by a growing number of health care professionals as the best water to drink and is listed as a medical device in Japan for the treatment of degenerative diseases." 

    Chemicals and Toxins Are The Primary Cause of Illness, Disease and Obesity
    Substances that are toxic to our bodies come at us from all directions: the air we breathe, the food we eat, the water we drink, the cleaning products we use, and the metabolic waste produced inside us. Toxins build-up in the body contribute to premature aging and chronic and degenerative diseases. Dr. Steve Nugent, the past president of the American Naturopathic Medical Association, reported recently that "in the typical American home there are more toxins inside the home than outside the home! Your cells actually contain over 400 new toxins that didn't even exist 45 years ago and we are losing the battle against toxins!" It's a fact. There are increasing amounts of toxins and chemical agents in the water we drink, the food we eat and the air we breathe - they all contribute to the breakdown in cellular communication and disease.  more

    Dr. Lazarnick  - "The first time I saw outstanding results with Goji (lycium) juice was when it literally changed my wife Abby’s life. She had been going through peri-menopausal symptoms for two years and had tried many different supplements, including black cohosh, evening primrose oil, and soy-based compounds, but to no avail. Nothing was helping her with her hot flashes and night sweats. Sometimes I would walk into the kitchen and find Abby with her head in the freezer, and she wasn’t looking to take something out for dinner! It was so bad that sometimes she would wake up in the middle of the night and have to go freshen up and change her nightgown because it was so wet. After just one week of drinking Goji juice, her hot flashes and night sweats were completely gone. And after three weeks of drinking Goji juice, she had her first full night’s sleep in two years. She woke up rested and refreshed, and was able to accomplish so much more during her day.

    Worries About Safety Of Its Anthrax Vaccine Put the Army in a Bind. Soldiers Ordered Inoculated Against Biological Threat Claim Harsh Side Effects. "...But soon after his first inoculation in February, the 29-years-old Mr. Nietupski showed up at an urgent -care facility with sores all over his mouth and throat. "The side of my tongue was all raw with little canker sores, and bloody mucus was coming out of my nose, " Mr. Nietupski says. His maladies, ultimately diagnosed as an autoimmune disorder in which his body accidentaly attacked itself, grew worse as he got the next two installements of the six-shot regime. Mr. Nietupski and several of the doctors who have examined him, believe the anthrax vaccine caused his severe reaction and may also be to  blame for the blood clots Mr. Nietupski experienced in his legs months later."read the entire story in the Wall Street Journal, Friday, October 12, 2001 (front page)more on anthrax vaccines       Alternatives to Antibiotics

    Shirley was once a victim of the never-ending flow of propaganda from the medical establishment who wants to maintain a monopoly on the word "cure" and who wants us to believe that we have no control over our own health and that our only hope to get "well" is with drugs, surgery and radiation.  You can read an account of Shirley's journey into health without drugs, surgery or radiation.
     
     
     

    The Truth About the Drug Companies : How They Deceive Us and What to Do About It    "The medical establishment works closely with the drug multinationals whose main objective is profits, and whose worst nightmare would be an epidemic of good health. Lots of drugs MUST be sold. In order to achieve this, anything goes: lies, fraud, and kickbacks. Doctors are the principal salespeople of the drug companies.

    Dr. Rob Robertson, MD  - "There is no other product in a nutritional substance, nor a drug, that has this kind of power and ability to affect our immune system. With the increase of killer viruses, mutated germs, super-resistant germs, and food contaminations, our only hope and defense, must lie within our own immune system."   Transfer factors and the immune sytem

    Raising Public Awareness
    Most modern maladies are caused by prolonged exposure to a combination of negative lifestyles and toxic environmental factors, including junk food and malnutrition, pesticides, antibiotics, microwaves, chemical pollution of food, water and air, lack of exercise and chronic stress. These factors are further aggravated by the failure of modern medicine to recognize them as agents of dis-"ease" and death and the consequent failure to take preventative measures against them. more
