#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - "The Bible of middle-aged womanhood
. . . a masterwork."--The Atlantic
Newly revised and updated for this fourth edition, this groundbreaking
book has inspired more than a million women with a dramatically new
vision of midlife--and will continue to do so for generations to come.
As Dr. Christiane Northrup explains, the "change" is not simply a
collection of physical symptoms to be "fixed," but a mind-body
revolution that brings the greatest opportunity for growth since
adolescence. The choices a woman makes now--from the quality of her
relationships to the quality of her diet--have the power to secure
vibrant health and well-being for the rest of her life.
In this fourth edition, Dr. Northrup draws on the current research and
medical advances in women's health, including:
- Up-to-date information on hormone testing and hormone therapy,
with new options and new research
- A whole new take on losing weight and training your mind to
release extra pounds
- New insights on the relationship between thyroid, Hashimoto's
Disease, and Epstein Bar Syndrome
- New, less invasive and more effective fibroid treatments
- Which supplements are better than botox for keeping skin looking
youthful
- How taking the supplement Pueraria mirifica can optimize many
aspects of midlife health and wellness
- Why older women don't need the HPV vaccine
With this trusted resource, Dr. Christiane Northrup shows that women can
make menopause a time of personal empowerment--emerging wiser,
healthier, and stronger in both mind and body than ever before.
