    About this ebook

    There is a silent, public health epidemic occurring. Largely unrecognised and ignored by conventional medicine, hormonal imbalance effects 85% of women. Most women suffer from some degree of hormonal imbalance. Due to this fact, hormonal imbalance is considered a ‘normal’ part of every woman’s life, destined to suffer in silence. How can a health condition affecting millions of women be ignored? Hormonal imbalance affects more people than diabetes, heart disease and cancer put together, yet a correct diagnosis and effective treatments are rare.
    Hormonal imbalance is considered a taboo subject. Too dangerous to discuss for fear of repercussions and women feel too embarrassed to talk about the way they are feeling. Hormonal imbalance suffers the same public stigmatism as depression and mental health issues. Hormonal imbalance has very real physical mechanisms causing the symptoms and is not just another misunderstood mental health issue.
    Symptoms of erratic mood swings, emotional instability, depression, anxiety, irritability, teariness, and anger coupled with physical symptoms of pain, cramping, bloating, flushing, acne, weight gain, aches and fatigue are affecting millions of women’s lives on a daily basis. These symptoms are contributing to marriage and relationship breakdowns, disharmony in the home and work environments, increased sick days and general discontentment with life.
    The body does not create symptoms by accident. It creates symptoms as a coping mechanism for deeper imbalances. Symptoms of hormonal imbalance are not normal and need not exist in a balanced, healthy individual. Women for decades have simply accepted hormonal symptoms as part of ‘being a woman’. Women do not have to suffer from hormonal imbalance and there are very real and effective complementary medicine treatments addressing to cause of the problem and not just the symptoms.

      Forward

      There is a silent, public health epidemic occurring. Largely unrecognised and ignored by conventional medicine, hormonal imbalance affects 85% of women. Most women suffer from some degree of hormonal imbalance. Due to this fact, hormonal imbalance is considered a 'normal' part of every woman's life, destined to suffer in silence. How can a health condition affecting millions of women be ignored? Hormonal imbalance affects more people than diabetes, heart disease and cancer put together, yet a correct diagnosis and effective treatments are rare.

      Hormonal imbalance is considered a taboo subject. Too dangerous to discuss for fear of repercussions and women feel too embarrassed to talk about the way they are feeling. Hormonal imbalance suffers the same public stigmatism as depression and mental health issues. Hormonal imbalance has very real physical mechanisms causing the symptoms and is not just another misunderstood mental health issue.

      Symptoms of erratic mood swings, emotional instability, depression, anxiety, irritability, teariness, and anger coupled with physical symptoms of pain, cramping, bloating, flushing, acne, weight gain, aches and fatigue are affecting millions of women's lives on a daily basis. These symptoms are contributing to marriage and relationship breakdowns, disharmony in the home and work environments, increased sick days and general discontentment with life.

      The body does not create symptoms by accident. It creates symptoms as a coping mechanism for deeper imbalances. Symptoms of hormonal imbalance are not normal and need not exist in a balanced, healthy individual. Women for decades have simply accepted hormonal symptoms as part of 'being a woman'. Women do not have to suffer from hormonal imbalance and there are very real and effective complementary medicine treatments addressing to cause of the problem and not just the symptoms.

      Introduction

      This book is designed to educate and give women real solutions to a modern day epidemic of hormonal imbalance. Hormonal imbalance affects women in many different ways; however the same solutions apply for most cases. The solution lies in re-correcting the body's natural biorhythms through dietary and lifestyle measures in combination with proven natural therapies.

      Section A deals with the development of hormonal imbalance and attempts to educate the reader about the causes of the condition. This section also attempts to give an understanding how a woman's body functions and to identify the subtle changes occurring on a daily basis. This way a woman can identify when the body is beginning to become imbalanced and make changes before symptoms develop.

      Section B is designed to offer women a solution to the problems of hormonal imbalance and if needed follow a ten week program to RESET the glandular balance contributing to the symptoms of hormonal imbalance. Much of the information is based around establishing a lifestyle of wellness taking into consideration all the elements contributing to total health and wellbeing. Hormonal imbalance is often a symptom of living in our polluted, processed and high paced world. The information in section B attempts to offer solutions how to survive, and flourish in this world.

      Section B also offers a range of complementary medicines proven to be effective in regulating glandular function and hormonal control. When used alone or in combination with the RESET information a profound healing experience can occur, generating vitality and wellbeing.

      Section A

      Hormonal Imbalance- A modern day epidemic

      'There are 2 types of women. Women who recognise they have some hormonal imbalance, and women with hormonal imbalance who do not recognise the symptoms.'

      Chapter 1

      Lisa's Story- Not so uncommon

      Lisa had it all- she is attractive, fit, had a successful professional sports career, 3 healthy children, and her own successful business career with recognition as an intelligent, articulate, passionate and driven individual.

      When I first met Lisa however she was tired, and understandably. You do not create such a successful life without a tremendous amount of hard work and dedication. It is easy to forget successful people who are in the public eye always looking a million dollars are human like the rest of us and susceptible to the same pressures of life.

      Lisa was tired and wanting to know what she could do to get her energy back. So I said OK let's have a look at what may be causing you to be fatigued and lacking energy. As the consultation unfolded it was easy to see why Lisa was tired, considering her busy lifestyle, however other symptoms were starting to emerge which gave me a greater insight into what was really happening.

      Apart from the fatigue Lisa mentioned she had always suffered from PMS and symptoms seemed to be getting worse. In fact they seemed to be lasting longer and she was experiencing the traditional emotional shifts throughout the entire month with an escalation premenstrually. For someone who had always been in control of her life, she was experiencing feelings of anxiety, irritability, anger, teary and emotionally imbalanced.

      In combination with the tiredness Lisa was finding the emotional symptoms hard to deal with and it was not only affecting her professional life, but personal life as well. As with most of us, the ones we love the most are often the ones which suffer when things start to go wrong. Because Lisa was constantly feeling tired and emotional, without realising it was her family being most affected. We often find the energy to put on a brave face publicly, however at home things begin to suffer.

      So here we have a successful woman used to being energetic and in control of her life to someone who is slowly sliding out of control and wondering what is going on. WHY? Luckily I had been treating women with symptoms similar to Lisa for years and was able to identify what was occurring and start to correct the physical metabolic imbalances making Lisa feel the way she was.

      Lisa was suffering from a glandular imbalance that was affecting her energy levels and hormone levels. Without knowing, thousands of women suffer in silence from the very same glandular imbalance believing the way they are feeling is normal for a busy working woman, mother and wife. Most of these women suffer in silence because discussing emotional imbalances, like depression and mental disorders is a kind of taboo in society. People think you are going crazy if you discuss feeling angry, irritable, moody, anxious and teary.

      The key for Lisa and for all women to understand is these feelings are being caused by a physical problem. You are not going crazy!! There is a very real physical imbalance in the glandular system making you feel this way. Once you can understand this fact, it becomes a lot easier to cope with. With the correct treatment for the glandular imbalance the body corrects itself and symptoms subside.

      There are many triggers to create a glandular imbalance and Lisa had most of them. Her troubles began many years before as a teenager training for the Olympics. Professional athletes place a huge demand upon their bodies, both physically and mentally. For women in particular the physical stress restricts the production of natural reproductive hormones. At the time this has little impact physically, and can actually assist the athlete through restricting reproductive function.
