		<description><![CDATA[I couldn’t have made it through perimenopause without natural progesterone. If there was ever such a thing as a single natural remedy for the widest number of conditions, bio-identical progesterone would lead the pack.  It is by far the most deficient hormone found in salivary hormone testing—whether the issue is PMS or postpartum depression—or perimenopause, [...]]]></description>

In today’s crazy world, the B complex family of vitamins has all but been forgotten. Stress, sugar, alcohol, the Pill, medications, a low-carb diet, and coffee rob you of your already dwindling reserves of this critical water-soluble vitamin family—which must be replaced daily. Once a foundational supplement for anybody suffering from hypoglycemia, eating disorders, depression, anxiety, irritability, and even [...]]]></description>

Without this &#8220;mother&#8221; hormone your body couldn&#8217;t produce other hormones like estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, cortisol, or dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), for that matter. The hormone—that nobody is really talking about—has really powerful effects on aging, memory, mood, sexuality, and even sleep. [...]]]></description>

Bloating, brain fog, depression, dizziness, fatigue, insomnia, loss of libido, menstrual irregularities, migraine, thinning hair, swollen ankles and/or feet, vaginal dryness, water retention, and weight gain are common symptoms among menopausal women.

Facial hair can be the bane of women as they grow older—right around the same time, sadly, when their &#8220;crowning glory&#8221; starts to become thinner and grayer. One recent study shows that 10% of menopausal women complain of facial &#8220;fuzz,&#8221; but unwanted hair can start sprouting [...]]]></description>
