MenopauseThis is another natural process that conventional medicine has successfully turned into a disease condition and, with it, a billion dollar big pharma industry. The rationale for HRT as the treatment of choice for menopause is flawed. Even if we were to accept that the signs and symptoms of menopause are purely the result of a hormonal imbalance, which they are not, it is naïve to pretend that providing an arbitrary mix of hormones in a HRT pill as a solution would not create an even worse state of imbalance. Even if some symptoms may improve, others will get worse or new ones are created which may be far worse than the original. This in fact is precisely what has taken place putting the injudicious use of HRT among a group of drugs recognised to do more harm than good. Reports of breast cancer, cervical cancer, heart disease and even osteoporosis and loss of libido, for which they were once touted as THE cure, are surfacing almost daily linking them with HRT. Menopause literally means cessation of the menstrual cycle and the monthly production of eggs. This is not a sudden occurrence and as the ovaries are powering down, the adrenal glands gradually take over the production of the sex hormones, especially oestrogen. As the adrenals oftentimes are exhausted (see adrenals), an imbalance becomes evident with all the signs and symptoms of menopause. Alternative, holistic treatment is extremely successful in reducing symptoms as well as addressing the long-term health problems of a natural process that has gone out of balance. An Integral Health DNA Hair Test not only can identify the cause/causes of an imbalance in the body and the potential for signs and symptoms of disease; we are also able to provide the best nutrient and lifestyle recommendations specifically tailored for each unique individual, helping to ensure they are able to achieve optimum health - naturally.
