| Are Your Hormones Making You Sick?: A Woman's Guide To Better Health Through Hormonal Balance | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
The TaylorÕs revolutionary approach to diagnosing womenÕs illnesses will forever change the healthcare of women all over the world. Previous books about women and hormonal problems have made sweeping generalizations concerning treatment (i.e. women should not take estrogen, all women need estrogen to prevent osteoporosis and heart disease or all women need progesterone, or herbs). Unlike other books written on the subject, this book advocates the use of objective and accurate testing through salivary testing before prescribing treatment. This book provides much needed information that allows patients and doctors to understand the value of saliva testing. Salivary testing is a must for every woman concerned about breast cancer, osteoporosis, infertility, menopause, fibroids, and PMS. Salivary testing allows women to take control of their health!

As a consultant pharmacist, specializing in women's health issues, I found Drs. Taylor's book one of the best, comprehensive, while easily understandable books that I have recently reviewed. I am dismayed to see this book listed currently as "unavailable" through Amazon, as I am now averaging 6 recommendations of this title to my patients daily. Amazon, you best order more copies!!!!

Thank you SO MUCH for sharing. You have immensely added to the quality of my life by helping to improve my health. You are tactful, understanding, and patient. Now it all makes sense. I've been in the healtcare field since 1984 and have had many doctors but none like you. Integrative medicine is the way to go! Your admonitions really work!!

Dr. Eldred Taylor has been my doctor for years. And after going through various female changes--I'm now over 40, he recommended that I read this book. I must say that after reading this book, I have a much better understanding of the world of hormones and how they truly affect my life. This book helped me to understand how exercise, diet, and hormones relate to feeling and being healthy. I keep this book handy as a resource guide to refer to it whenever I feel out of balance! I love the highlights or take-home points throughout the chapter.

Finally, a doctor who understands that women DON'T always understand how their bodies work. As a home health R.N., I can attest to that fact....and women need to pay attention to what they are putting into their bodies and why. This book is a wonderful "primer" or way for a woman to start on a road to better health. Nothing can be more frustrating that being a woman who knows "something just isn't right with me" and having a doctor prescribe synthetic drugs...only to find out you are worse off than before you started the drugs. Here is an answer to that maze for a woman who is truly interested in actually reclaiming her health and understanding how her body works. Saliva testing should be the route of choice for testing a woman's hormones...this book guides a woman through the process of why blood testing for your hormonal status is NOT accurate and why saliva testing IS! Women...get smart....know your bodies and how it works. Let this book be your guide to renewed health.

This book took me beyond the answer to its question, with information on how to make a difference in my health. With its clinical approach, I felt I was no longer just the patient, but a person empowered with understanding of the chemical makeup of my body. Thankfully, no food plans or diet recipes are included in this book, only information on how to correct a hormonal imbalance that has been plaguing me for fourteen years. Learning is more than half the battle when I can easily implement changes in my lifestyle!

I work in a health food store and have been researching holistic approaches to women's health issues for several years. Dr. Lee's book was very helpful, but somewhat difficult to understand. After reading Dr. Taylor's book, a lot of questions I had were easily explained and I was able to relate that information to customers in our store. There has been a need for a more detailed, but understandable book on women's hormones ... and this is it!

This book is the best one I have read on hormonal balance in women. It explained how the hormonal system works in women in a way the nonmedical person could understand. It explained how different hormones work in relation to each other and how imbalances occur. Also interesting was the chapter on saliva testing and why this works to allow women to know exactly which hormones they need. Then typical case studies of various hormonal problems showed results of before and after treatment. Instead on one size fits all standard hormonal treatment, women now have a more individualized treatment program which may be more effective and with fewer side effects. Also the book explains how lifestyle factors and environmental factors are part of the hormonal picture. I highly recommend this book for any woman who wants to be more knowledgable about what is happening to them at the hormonal level--it is truly educational and easy to understand as well.
