Book Description

Publication Date: March 1, 2004

Joint pains, mood swings, weight gain, and hot flashes-all familiar symptoms to every woman experiencing menopause. As unavoidable as menopause is, Marilyn Glenville demonstrates that its symptoms can be avoided, or at least alleviated. How? Thankfully, the solution is not the controversial and risky hormone replacement therapy, but a safe and natural alternative-your diet. Certain foods have been scientifically proven to benefit your health, particularly during menopause. In the Natural Alternatives to HRT Cookbook, Glenville outlines the beneficial effects of a variety of foods and provides savory and sweet recipes that will help you remain healthy and vigorous during menopause. Lavishly illustrated with beautiful photography, each delicious recipe has been specifically designed to combat the symptoms of menopause. Enjoy mouth-watering and healthy foods such as wild mushroom risotto, grilled seafood salad, and a fruit tart. By simply knowing how to eat naturally, you will eliminate menopausal discomfort, avoid osteoporosis, and prevent other illnesses.
