Product Description

Looking for a natural way to treat hot flashes, mood swings, insomnia, and menopausal weight gain without the dangerous side effects of HRT? Bestselling author and one of the country's top nutritionists, Ann Louise Gittleman explains the latest research on women's health and nutrition and confirms what she has been teaching for years-that menopausal symptoms are not medical problems to be treated with pills and hormone therapy. They are the result of years of improper eating, insufficient exercise, and poor lifestyle habits that have taxed the adrenals, leaving some women with unbalanced body systems that cause many health risks.

In this completely revised edition of her popular book, Gittleman provides a diet built from unprocessed, unrefined, and natural foods, including green leafy vegetables, fresh fruits, whole grains, good fats, fish, and lean meats. With all-new recipes, a revitalizing exercise program, and lifestyle tips, Hot Times will help ensure that the postmenopausal years are a time in a woman's life when she is rewarded with good health and a renewed zest for living.
