This guide explains how a modern diet, lifestyle, environment and hormone treatments may have upset many women's natural hormone balance. It presents a drug-free approach for women who have been seeking relief from PMS, adverse symptoms of the menopause and women's health problems in general. Oestrogen-like compounds are now found in food, air and water. They come from plastic residues, exhaust fumes and pesticides. A high fat, high dairy, low-fibre diet also increases oestrogen levels, as does the pill and HRT. The author suggests that synthetic hormones are not the answer. They can interfere with the body's natural ability to keep hormones in balance and may give rise to disastrous side-effects. She explains how natural progesterone and oestrogen, derived from plants, together with special nutrition programmes, help to restore hormone balance and keep women healthy and free from disease. Balancing hormones naturally may point the way towards emotional well-being and freedom from depression; painless periods and symptom-free menopause; easy weight control and better weight distribution; a healthier pregnancy and healthier children; strong bones and a longer, healthier life; maximum fertility and a better sex life; and improved energy.
