How low estrogen can affect women’s brains. Forgetfulness, and fuzzy thinking There is another reason why women need to look into the healing properties of hormones. As I’ve mentioned, as a horone specialist and sex therapist I went on hormones at 40. I wish I had gone on them at 35. Despite having no real…
DetailsYou may have noticed that I talk a lot about bio-identical hormones and how they can fix what ails our aging bodies. I also understand the neuropsychology (brain science) and how hormones and chemicals affect our behaviour. One of the most important chemicals is the one that is present in chocolate. So there is a…
DetailsThe problem with staying on most diets is threefold (in my opinion). 1. Cravings. Your body wants sugar, salt, fat or something else it thinks it’s missing and you struggle to turn it down.

If you didn’t get anything for Valentine’s Day (and cried about it) your partner probably didn’t get much action last night. A new study The…
DetailsI always have mixed feelings about Suzanne Sommers. I admire her marketing prowess, her ability to stand up for what she beleives in, and her insight into bio-identical hormones. I find her incredibly commercial. You can buy everything from her lipstick to her necklace, clothes, thigh-master, to de-toxing patches. Hre credibility becomes suspect when she…
