-James F. Balch, M.D.,
coauthor of Prescription for Natural Healing

Menopause brings a multitude of changes for women. It's a time when you need to prepare your body for a hormonal roller coaster ride and protect yourself against various health risks-that means making positive, healthy lifestyle decisions.
