Where was this book when I was growing up? I could have used it in high school. Not only did it answer all the questions I have, it also answered the questions I didn’t know I had. The information is far from basic, without being overly clinical/sterile. It is a wonder none of this is taught in basic health classes. I appreciate the author’s charts, tables, checklists, quizzes, and all the visual aids she provided to make this easy to understand and relevant to me, rather than just a bunch of interesting facts. And yes, it has a ton of interesting facts. But what I found most helpful was the guidance on my hormones. I appreciate it isn’t just a medication or supplement only book and instead, the author gives many easily accessible food and lifestyle tools to balance hormones. I also think the libido information is a must know by everyone. I found myself saying yes out loud numerous times because it felt like she was speaking just to me. I’ll be telling everyone about this book and will definitely be re-reading sections of it, maybe even out loud to my partner.

Specific Solutions to Your Specific Issues
This is one of those great books that break the taboo and talk freely about the female body, and it is a fun read to boost! I found the 2nd chapter particularly unique as it deep dives into a woman’s cycle and hormones. The cool quizzes allow you to pinpoint your own issues or imbalances, which the next chapter then gives very specific instructions on how to fix them by walking you through the lifestyle, nutrition and supplement (and dosage) adjustments you need to make. So whether you experience acne, high stress, migraines, perimenopause, etc., it gives you specific ways to address that particular issue, which I found very useful… And I also loved the recipes I tried so far. Can't wait to try the rest! Definitely recommend the book!

Excellent information and easy to follow
The program is accessible, easy to implement, and really works. I’ve only been at it for 3 weeks and for the first time in my life, my period cramps were manageable, and I didn’t have the extreme moods that I usually do. I couldn’t believe how effective the protocol was and how quickly it worked.Daniela AbreuExcellent information and easy to follow

I used the cycle symptom relief protocols (these are all the way in the back) for PMS and cramps. They were really effective. I also downloaded the free cookbook the author gave in the program. I followed it about 70% of the time. The recipes are not complicated and they are really delicious. And I love that she included chocolate desserts too, because not only are they some of my favorite, it made this feel like a practical and enjoyable plan.
If you’re on the fence about this book, I’d say, it is definitely worth getting. I’ve learned more about my body in this one book than in all my internet searches.
Here’s some of what I found helpful.
Pros:
- Very clear hormone balancing guidelines.
- It works! The program works and this is the first time I’ve been able to be successful with a health book.
- The author breaks down the menstrual cycle to help you understand why you have symptoms and then tells you exactly how to correct them.
- Lots of thyroid and adrenal info.
- You can skip around and not have to read the whole thing.
Cons:
- The Cycle Symptom Relief chart I mentioned is way too valuable to be all the way in the back. She should move it to earlier in the book.
- I would have liked to have seen one for the meal plate she describes in the program. That being said, there are a lot of diagrams in the book that I think were incredibly well thought out and really helped me understand things even better.
- PMDD isn’t listed in the index, but instead, it is listed as premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD). Not everyone knows what PMDD means, so I think it would be helpful to have it listed both ways.
