HEALTH NEWS FLASH:
YOUR HORMONES CAN MAKE YOU FAT! (Or, keep you from losing weight)
Perhaps the worst hormone offender in the battle of the bulge is high cortisol levels, since the abdomen is more likely to respond to elevated cortisol. And unfortunately, stress is well known to cause elevated cortisol levels and weight gain. That cortisol producing stress can come from a variety of physical and emotional sources - including the other symptoms of menopause! And, if that weren’t bad enough, elevated cortisol levels can actually cause food cravings!
MANY WOMEN have struggled with weight most of their lives, but other women begin the struggle as their hormone levels change. This typically happens when they move into premenopause in their late 30’s and early 40’s where hormone imbalance can change their metabolism, leading MANY MEN often have the same to fat storage and weight gain. In this issues when they reach the male state, it is no longer just about eating version of menopause – andropause less and exercising more.

therapy is a much healthier course of treatment. This belief was bolstered by the Women’s Health Initiative which looked at the risks and benefits of traditional hormone replacement therapy. This landmark study involved more than 16,000 women for over five years. The results indicated many potential negative health effects associated with traditional pharmaceutical therapy. On the other hand, there are many studies showing the safety and effectiveness of Natural Hormone Replacement Therapies. So if you have been struggling to maintain your weight, to shed pounds, or struggling with the many other symptoms of menopause or andropause, then hormone imbalance may be holding you back - especially if you are doing everything else right. If this is your struggle, get yourself a natural hormone makeover, stop suffering, and start living again!

Funny Graveyard Story Albert Hammond was visiting the cemetery near Hamble in England and he couldn't help noticing a man kneeling in front of a gravestone, clasping his hands and sobbing. Albert went a bit closer and could hear what the man was saying. 'Why did you have to die?' he was repeating, 'Why did you have to die?' Feeling he ought to do something to alleviate the man's obvious distress Albert laid his hand on the his shoulder saying gently, 'Was it someone you loved very much?' The man looked up at him and said, 'No, I never met him, he was my wife's first husband.'
