This is a fabulous book! I have read some of this same advice before - she quotes Michael Pollen and a plethora of others and the book has extensive footnotes as well as a glossary and an appendix about certain drugs, but a lot of it is new to me and is incredibly helpful. This book explains how and why hormones affect us the way they do. From PMS to pregnancy, to nursing to menopause, she explains the roles that hormones play in our lives and how they make us feel and act. She advocates a healthy diet of mostly in season produce, exercise, spending time outside in nature, and getting enough sleep. She addresses mental as well as physical health and recommends holistic, natural ways of self care above drugs. I have learned a lot from this book and I think that others will too. I received this book free to review from Netgalley and I highly recommend it!
