Hormone Replacement Therapy vs. Natural Progesterone

Written by John Russell


If your doctor has recently prescribed hormone replacement therapy (HRT) supplements, you probably have a lot of questions. You’re not alone. Throughout our many years inrepparttar industry, our most commonly asked question is, “Why don’t doctors prescribe natural progesterone if it’s better than synthetic?” That’s an excellent question and there’s a simple answer: pharmaceutical companies are not allowed to market and/or sell natural products for profit.

But just because you can’t buy natural progesterone products from your pharmacist, does not mean you’re stuck with one option. IH Distribution.com offers all-natural progesterone supplements—the healthy choice your doctor may not have told you about.

All natural progesterone products have recently been highlighted inrepparttar 130800 press asrepparttar 130801 number-one choice for menopausal ailments. Dr. John Lee, M.D., has writtenrepparttar 130802 landmark book onrepparttar 130803 subject titled “Natural Progesterone, The multiple Roles Of A Remarkable Hormone.” His thesis is that progesterone is a major hormone that is produced regularly in a woman’s cycle in more abundance than estrogen, which is a significant factor. He validates that progesterone isrepparttar 130804 principle hormone of women. Asrepparttar 130805 newspapers have recently documented,repparttar 130806 existing system of medical education for day-to-day practice is not in sync with progesterone as a health aid for women.

Recent studies indicate millions of women could be supported with onlyrepparttar 130807 replacement of a natural hormone. Unfortunately, they’re being denied this option due torepparttar 130808 continuing pressures of pharmaceutical companies and physicians who have been educated in earlier times.

Dr. Susan Hendricks conducted a study that found long-term use of estrogen and progestin significantly increasedrepparttar 130809 likelihood of cancer, stroke and heart attack. Estrogen and progestins (synthetic versions of natural progesterone) have been used to replace hormones that are no longer produced during menopause. The lack of these hormones causes symptoms such as hot flashes, mood swings, and bouts of insomnia, to name a few.

The study included 16,608 women, ages 50-79, at 40 hospitals nationwide. Dr. Hendricks’ findings:repparttar 130810 risk of stroke rose 41%, heart attack risk rose 29%, and cancer cases increased 26% above average.

Take Off the Rose-Colored Glasses When Dating

Written by Susan Dunn, MA, certified Emotional Intelligence Coach


Robin was giving me an anatomy of her divorce. “There were signs,” she said. “Plenty of them. I just ignored them.”

“The counselor told me to ignore how he treated other people,” said Manuela, “and concentrate on how he treated me. But one day I became ‘other people.’”

It’s typical to do this inrepparttar early stages of dating and falling in love because, first of all it’s an exciting and complex process getting to know someone, and secondly, there are all those wonderful dreamy chemicals bathing our brains.

It’s also a time when we’re prone to be “optimistic,” to assume everything’s going to be marvelous. Nobody starts a new relationship hoping it will be a disaster. We invest a lot of time and energy into it, and we can begin to see what we want to see, not what’s really going on.

This, byrepparttar 130798 way, is one ofrepparttar 130799 catch points about Emotional Intelligence, and about learned optimism. It’s recommended in many daily situations, particularly performance situations (like giving a speech or pitching an account), but it is never recommended in situations of great consequence. At those times, we need to take offrepparttar 130800 rose-colored glasses. Dating is surely one of those times.

While you’re enjoyingrepparttar 130801 chemical bath coming fromrepparttar 130802 brain-stem and limbic brains, stay in touch with your neocortex –repparttar 130803 thinking brain – and process just exactly what it is you’re seeing and experiencing. Working with a coach, BTW, can help you with clarity.

“No hay casualidades,” sayrepparttar 130804 Spanish. Roughly translated it means, “nothing happens by accident” or “there are no coincidences.”

Each of these things happened early on in someone’s dating career and were ignored:

· We were sitting atrepparttar 130805 kitchen table at his folks’ house and heard a mousetrap go off. Edward sprang to his feet, ran over torepparttar 130806 trap, freedrepparttar 130807 mouse and then beat it to death with a fly swatter. Somehow I didn’t think that related to anything else butrepparttar 130808 mouse, though it made me sick atrepparttar 130809 time. · Stanton was a good doctor. He had taken a contract and was working from home and made plenty of money and that blinded me. Turns out he’d had a couple of partnerships that had failed because he was so demanding and impossible to work with. Boy did I find out about that later. It’s very strange for a doctor to work out of his home. Somehow that never registered on me.
