Perimenopause (the five to fifteen years before menopause) and menopause are fraught with symptoms that are often ignored, tolerated or worse - treated with artificial hormones that can have dangerous effects on a woman's overall health.
We take our advice from Phuli Cohan MD, a female doctor who has spent more than two decades studying the relationship between hormones and menopause. In her book, The Natural Hormone Makeover, she outlines a safe and effective program that includes diet, supplements and - where appropriate - natural and bioidentical hormones to combat hot flashes, insomnia, mood swings, fatigue, breast pain, hair loss, low sex drive and many other symptoms linked to menopause-related hormone imbalances.

Phuli Cohan, MD, notes the importance of phytosterols in lowering cholesterol absorption and production, improving estrogen metabolism and enhancing fat metabolism. She recommends supplementing your diet with beta-Sitosterol and recommends using Life Assure™, especially for women with breast tenderness, fibrocystic breast disease, or high cholesterol.
Phytosterols are vitally important plant compounds that, among other things, help protect our cells and support optimal cellular health. Unfortunately, they are found less and less frequently in our food supply and most Americans simply cannot eat enough foods containing phytosterols to make a real difference.
