Originally published in 1992, the NEW MENOPAUSAL YEARS has just been revised with the benefit of 100 pages of new information and the insight of the 20,000 interviews the author has made in the last decade. Weed believes that every woman has an innate wisdom which connects her to the "Wise Women," the female healers indigenous to almost every culture. Weed, an herbalist since 1965, encourages women to use herbs and natural alternatives to treat themselves in conjunction with conventional medicine or alternative therapies. NEW MENOPAUSAL YEARS considers a host of problems such as fibromyalgia, thyroid health, excess body hair, and herbs for women taking hormones, and suggests alternative therapies along with eating and life-style changes that should alleviate symptoms while helping the menopausal woman accept and appreciate her body's natural transformation. A guide to the use of herbal medicines, recipes for bone and heart health, a useful glossary, and a resource list for menopausal information is included |
