Eat to thrive during menopause : managing your symptoms with nourishing foods. by Huber, Jenn Salib.;
"For the millions of women grappling with perimenopause and menopause, a groundbreaking, science-based cookbook and nutrition program to reduce hot flashes, night sweats, brain fog, and other troubling symptoms through food by a leading naturopathic doctor. In her first book, nutritionist and naturopath Jenn Salib Huber gives the millions of women in perimenopause or menopause a clear path to using research-based information about food choices to alleviate their symptoms. Salib Huber teaches readers to manage the symptoms of menopause -- night sweats, brain fog, and more -- with foods they have in their kitchens already. She lays out the key ingredients that can support women in midlife and follows it with recipes to equip them in the kitchen. The recipes include the five key ingredients to help them thrive: Powerful soy and phytoestrogens, protein, calcium, omega3 fats, and fiber. These ingredients are the featured players in such mouthwatering recipes as Ginger Squash Red Lentil Soup (good for protein and fiber), Slow-Cooked Tikka Masala (filled with vital soy and phytoestrogens), Spinach and Mozzarella Pita Pizza (a great source of calcium), and even No Bake Peanut Butter Chocolate Tofu Pie for dessert (for fiber and omega 3s). Eat to Thrive During Menopause shows how nutrition for menopause health can be not only nourishing and satisfying, but healing and restorative too"--Library Bound Incorporated

The menopause brain : new science empowers women to navigate the pivotal transition with knowledge and confidence. by Mosconi, Lisa.;
"Menopause and perimenopause are still a black box to most doctors, leaving patients exasperated as they grapple with symptoms ranging from hot flashes to insomnia and brain fog. As a leading neuroscientist and women's brain health specialist, Dr. Lisa Mosconi unravels the mystery by revealing how menopause doesn't just impact the ovaries--but it's a hormonal show in which the brain takes center stage. The decline of the hormone estrogen during menopause influences everything from body temperature to mood and memory, potentially paving the way for cognitive decline later in life. To conquer these successfully, Mosconi brings us the latest approaches--from cutting-edge hormone replacement therapies like "designer estrogens" to the role of hormonal contraception, and key lifestyle changes encompassing diet, exercise, self-care, and self-talk. Best of all, Mosconi dispels the myth that menopause signifies an end, demonstrating that it's actually a transition. Contrary to popular belief, if we know how to take care of ourselves during menopause, we can emerge with a renewed, enhanced brain--ushering in a meaningful and vibrant new chapter of life"--Library Bound Incorporated

Unbreakable : go strong, live long, a woman's guide to aging with power / by Wright, Vonda,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."Stronger muscles and bones, increased mobility, lifelong independence, and a new mentality for aging with power -- this cutting-edge guide to nutrition, training, and lifestyle will optimize a woman's body for longevity, through menopause and beyond. Strong skeletal muscle drives healthy longevity yet too often women in particular neglect this important measure of fitness. Indeed, more than 70% of women experience musculoskeletal symptoms like joint pain, muscle loss, and reduced bone density as they enter perimenopause and menopause. These symptoms -- what Dr. Vonda Wright refers to as the "musculoskeletal syndrome of menopause" -- can often set us up for osteoporosis, osteopenia, broken bones, increasingly limited mobility, and reduced independence later in life. That trend stops now. Unbreakable outlines a new and direct path to protecting ourselves against this too-common fate. Drawing on her decades of experience as a pioneering orthopedic surgeon helping women at all fitness levels to repair their bones and regain strength, Dr. Wright gives clear action steps to shield us from the timebombs of aging in four critical categories: Exercise: Pinpointing the right combination of cardio and resistance training for you to aid in tissue regeneration and improve metabolic function; Nutrition: What to eat to extinguish inflammation, repopulate your gut biome, and support strong bones and muscle growth; Lifestyle: How to manage chronic stress, get more restorative sleep, and turn down systemic inflammation in your daily life; Supplements: What to take to target the elimination of "zombie cells" and improve your cell function. Including a six-week, master exercise protocol to jumpstart skeletal and muscular strength, critical information about baseline blood and mobility tests that will help you understand your current health state, and twenty easy, anti-inflammatory recipes, Unbreakable is an invaluable guide to adding more vibrantly healthy life to your years"--

Grown woman talk : your guide to getting and staying healthy / by Malone, Sharon,1959-author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."A practical guide to aging and health for women who have felt ignored or marginalized by the medical profession, from a leading Ob/Gyn and expert on menopausal and post-reproductive health. The medical system today is increasingly complicated and impersonal, and unfortunately, it is not going to be less so in the future. The rules of engagement have changed in medicine, but no one has bothered to inform patients. Much is written about Black women and women of color, be it our increased cancer risk, our alarming obesity statistics, or our disproportionate risk of cardiovascular diseases, but very little is written for us, and a diagnosis from Dr. Internet doesn't cut it. Talk about being sick? Dr. Sharon Malone is sick of that. Grown Woman Talk is for all women who have often not been seen or heard. For more than three decades as a practicing Ob/Gyn in the nation's capital and now as chief medical officer of Alloy Women's Health, Dr. Malone has served women across the city all the way to the upper echelons of power. In this book, she gives us the nudge we all need to become effective and efficient advocates in getting the care we deserve. Part medical memoir of the Malone family experience tracing from the Jim Crow South to the highest corridors of power in Washington, part relatable clinical scenarios of women from all walks of life and experiences, and part practical medical and logistical advice, this book is a reliable and easy-to-understand resource. In addition to information on ailments like fibroids, cancer, heart disease, and perimenopause, it also helps us navigate the medical establishment of today with advice on how to choose a doctor, why our family's health history matters, and how to decide among treatments. Combining emerging practices with the latest research the book addresses many women's greatest gap, the one between what they believe and what is actually true. With a combination of medical expertise, up-to-date science, and lived experience, Grown Woman Talk addresses the most common conditions women over forty deal with. And it helps women, especially Black women, identify the power they have and how to use it to chart a path to improve their health outcomes and thrive"--
