Women, the giver of Life, are becoming more aware of what their Health Risks are! Our hormones influence so much of our physical problems on our Life's Journey. Here we have a Life Health Guide, which will help with some answers, which includes a combination of Natural Supplements, and effective ways to take charge.
Chronic Candida
The female body has its own defense against invading yeast cells. Dr. Truss, author of "Missing Diagnosis", is convinced that yeast is implicated in a very wide variety of human ills, which can include depression, hormone disturbances, allergies and auto-immune diseases, also the over use of antibiotics. Natures Secret has a very unique formula called Candistroy, a 2-part program, helping overcome Candida Albacans and destroying yeast. Natren has Megadolphilus, which can be combined, and don't leave out the Garlicin by Natures Way (odorless, of course).
Heart Attacks, CVD (Congestion Heart Failure)
This occurs when the Heart gradually weakens and has a blood pumping problem. This is responsible for over 300,000 deaths a year. Shortness of breath, swelling of the ankles are some of the symptoms. This is a universal problem now for women. Ultra Giggulow by Doctor’s Best, the one and only bark of a tree, for help with Cholestrol Balance, Inflammation and even Low Thyroid. There is also COQ SOL CF 100 mgs by Doctor’s Best in Limonene oil (which helps the absorption). This is the Powerful Heart Nutrient, stabilizing the michrondria of Heart Cells. Doctor’s Best also features COQ 10 with Bioperine, the enforcer, to get down to those cells. Herb Pharm has Healthy Heart Tonic, in Tincture. Take Heart, Ladies, we don't want blockages or angina (pain).
Bone Degeneration, The Next issue Here!
Keeping your Bones Mineralized, and Exercising are two important factors, especially for those on the road to Osteoporosis. (We are all on that road someday). Doctor’s Best has the Strontium Bone Maker 340 mgs. Everyone is asking about this new formula.
The latest research is from Dr’s William Douglas and Jonathan Wright (my guru of 40 years). I have been told by a lot of my clients that the meds for this condition are causing so many side effects, including Acid Reflux. Jarrow’s Biosil, strengthens connective Tissue with the Biologically Active form of Silica. There is also Bone Up, also by Jarrow Formulas, a Microcrystalline Hydroxyapatite form of Live Bone Food. Now Foods has Bone Strength Caps; this is for Women of all ages. Vitamin K is also in all of this, necessary to synthesize Osteocalcium, and accelerate Bone Formation.

Peripheral Neuropathy (Known Also As Nerve Pain)
All your B Vitamins are important here. Be sure to take a B Complex of at least 100 mgs of all B's, Twinlab has one. Also look into Alpha Lopic Acid from Now Foods and you might want to add Oil Of Evening Primrose by Natures Way. Jarrow also has a good formula for Nerve Pain called Methyl B12, 5000 mcg, in a Lozenge, you just let it melt on your tongue, gets down to the Blood Stream in 20 minutes. This could be all caused by cellular damage of the free radicals, leading to destruction of the cells and tissues, the root of all diseases, called Oxidative Damage.
Moods, Crankiness, Depression
SSRI'S, Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors, the drug of choice, and yes sometimes, it's necessary to start with! Serotonin, being the natural Hormone, transmitting nerve impulses into the pre-synaptic cells. The drugs have adverse reactions ranging from gastro-bleeding to suicidal tendencies. Since all the cell coatings are made of Fats, all Brain Cells function better with Fatty Acids, the Government is just now catching on to this fact. Now Foods and Twinlab both have Omega 3. Jarrow has Sam-E (pronounced as Sammy), which has a reputation in Europe, useful against Depression, with no side effects except the beneficial ones for easing Pain, Joint, Bone and Liver Health.

Since the Hippocampus in the Brain is the region most affected and has strong links to Alzheimers, Parkinsons, MS and ALS, Jarrow Formulas has Neuro Optimizer, with a great variety of Nutrients focusing in on the Brain. We now know that Toxins damage Brain Cells. A little run down here of some of them!
