BIG BODY BUMPS: Menopause

Menopause may result in hot flashes, night sweats, and lack of sexual desire in older women. It is the result of a change in hormonal balance.

Instead of using hormonal treatments you may want to try Klamath Lake (in Oregon) Algae. Several Italian studies for those undergoing depression or anxiety show: "a consistent change in their quality of life, for mood, anxiety and depressive attitude" Reported on the National Institue of health website: nih.gov.

Black cohosh herb, soy milk, and flax seed oil can also help with hot flashes and night sweats. If you want, you could try ginseng to improve sexual desire.

Yoga has also been found to help bring back a youthful balance.
