Product Details

Dr. Reiss and talented cowriter Martin Zucker explain why, how, and when to use natural hormones. This is not a snappy, one-size-fits-all program--rather, you, with the involvement of your physician, learn how to analyze your needs and individualize your treatment for your own optimal hormonal balance. Reiss describes the benefits and uses of natural estrogen and progesterone, then discusses other natural hormones that might be helpful: testosterone, human growth hormone, DHEA, melatonin, and pregnenolone. This is a provocative book that's worth sharing with your doctor. --Joan Price --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.
Author of Before the Change and Super Nutrition for Menopause Natural Hormone Balance For Women is undoubtedly the single best book I have read on the subject to date, and I have read all of them.

Coauthor of Smart Medicine for a Healthier Child With this book, women can finally gain insight into what is going on in their bodies, why they feel how they do, and what can make them feel better. I am looking forward to recommending it to patients, friends, and colleagues.
Leeza Gibbons Dr. Reiss has been my doctor for many years. As I evolve as a woman, he continues to have answers to the questions that matter the most. He has contributed to my physical, mental, and emotional health, and in this book, he shows how all three are connected and how as women we can take back control. For every woman who ever felt her body was out of control, this book is a must-read.

Angels Answered my Prayers with this Book!!!,
This review is from: Natural Hormone Balance For Women: Look Younger, Feel Stronger, and Live Life with Exuberance (Hardcover)
Finally!! After exhausting searches through books and the internet comes a valuable, easy to read book on women's hormones! Every young woman should have the opportunity to be informed of hormones.(Hormone loss starts in our late 20's & early 30's!) We are so programmed to "just deal with" so many female hormonal issues. We are under the guise that we have to stop having periods or have hot flashes before we can benefit from hormones! Oh how wrong! This book makes you feel empowered and SAFE! A priceless education. Every Doctor and woman should read this. I can't wait to get started on Dr. Weiss'recomendations. I now have hope!

Should be Required Reading for Women and MDs,

This review is from: Natural Hormone Balance For Women: Look Younger, Feel Stronger, and Live Life with Exuberance (Hardcover)
This down-to-earth, practical guide is for women of *all* ages, not just those of us facing a health crisis or lifestage turning point. It is such a relief to know that many chronic, minor but nagging symptoms like insomnia, poor energy, water retention, forgetfulness, and that "morning fog" feeling are not imaginary, and even better, are fixable! This is truly a treasure trove of solid, useful information and easily understood guidelines. Finally, a doctor with common sense! As an animal advocate, I am especially pleased to see the truth finally told about Premarin, a multi-billion dollar industry that exploits horses for profit, and sends tens of thousands of foals to slaughter every year. Plant-derived hormones are kind to animals, and earth-friendly, too!

Concrete and Detailed,
By A Customer
This review is from: Natural Hormone Balance For Women: Look Younger, Feel Stronger, and Live Life with Exuberance (Hardcover)
I will add my voice of acclaim for this valuable book. I was looking for someone who could tell me what the symptoms were of too little estrogen, too little progesterone, too much progesterone, etc. and could not find that information anywhere on the internet. Lab tests are expensive, often inaccurate, and ultimately irrelevant if you have "normal" values but are still experiencing symptoms. Dr. Reiss explains in wonderful detail what various symptoms mean and what hormones to take, when and how, and where to get them. There are sections for women approaching menopause as well as in the middle of it and all the way through it. He shares a tremendous wealth of experience!My first impression was that he was perhaps a "fringe" doctor, one of those who think they've solved some common problem but they can't get other doctors to listen to them. But the more I read, the more I became convinced that he really knows what he's talking about and has solid research studies to back up his opinions. And my doctor was the one who recommended his book. I'm sure his approach will become more and more mainstream in the next few years. I have been recommending this book to all my perimenopausal and menopausal friends and they have been as excited by it as I am.
