Nutritional Programs for Menopause and Bone Health
Most women enter menopause between the ages of 45 and 50, but it may occur anywhere between 40 and 55. Those whose ovaries are surgically removed before they have entered menopause will almost immediately experience menopausal symptoms and often are placed on estrogen alone or hormone replacement therapy (HRT), using estrogen and progesterone to simulate their natural cycle. While estrogen therapy or HRT is helpful to most women, there are potential risks and side effects, so many women eventually want to shift to a more natural program and go off synthetic hormones. Dr. Elson Haas introduces a program oriented toward a natural program of diet, nutritional supplements and herbs to minimize menopausal symptoms and enhance vitality in this excerpt from his bestselling book Staying Healthy with Nutrition, .

Lessons in Curry - by Siri-Ved Kaur Khalsa
To most Westerners, curry or "curried" refers to anything that is made with curry powder. Curry (pronounced more like "kuhdee") is actually a special dish, usually somewhat saucy and made with yogurt or buttermilk that is thickened with a little besan (fine flour of the Indian black garbanzo bean). Sometimes the cook will forego the use of yogurt or buttermilk entirely, and use a spiced besan gravy. This is the first in a series of articles on preparing Curry. This week the focus is primarily on SPICES. Next month, we'll talk more about how to make a great Masala!

Teeccino is the first herbal coffee on the market - a blend of herbs, grains, fruits and nuts that are roasted, ground and brewed just like coffee. Dark, rich, and full-bodied, Teeccino brings you all the satisfaction of a robust brew with no caffeine reaction. Now Available in 5 lb. bags! Buy Now
Rooibos, an herb from South Africa rich in antioxidants, brews into a full-bodied, earthy red tea with numerous health benefits--and no caffeine! Just like black and green tea, Rooibos is full of polyphenols, flavonoids and proanthocyanidins that help protect the body from free radical damage. Drinking Rooibos tea daily, as South Africans do, can help build the body's defenses against the onslaught of germs and pollution that continuously attack our immune system.
