subject: Health In Women- A Balancing Act Between Estrogen And Progesterone [print this page] Health has been defined as "a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity" according to the definition in use by the World Health Organization (WHO) since 1948.
Health is all about balance and I would like to share Sarah's story with you so that you can understand just how these concepts apply to your life as well.
Sarah is a 45 year old executive which presented to my office complaining of hot flashes, night sweats, extreme fatigue and an inability to achieve restful sleep at night. She also had low sex drive, crazy mood swings, weight gain & thinning hair. Overall, Sarah felt like quite the mess... and needed help to begin feeling healthy once again. Here was our discussion..
"Sarah, there's very simple ways for restoring your sense of health & balance. It's just a matter of testing for which hormones have gone out of balance & then restoring them to more youthful levels so you can regain that sense of HEALTH and youthful living once again."
"If you will allow these 7 letters to guide you in remembering these ways in which you can begin healing your hormonal imbalances in the perimenopausal years, you'll be feeling much better very soon."
Here is what I taught Sarah about HEALTH that day..
