The Importance of Nutritional, Hormonal and Neurological Balance in Disease Prevention

Authors Raquel Martin, Dr. Gudi Gersung, and Dr. Karen Romano will be giving ongoing presentations on the subjects described below:

The Estrogen Alternative: Natural Hormone Therapy with Botanical Progesterone by Raquel Martin and Dr. Judi Gerstung (3rd Edition Foreword by John Hart, MD) is now translated into three languages. The book discusses the dangers of environmental and endogenous estrogens, for both men and women.

It addresses common concerns to the appalling consequences of misdiagnosis and mistreatment of hormone imbalance. The book also talks about natural therapies to problems of PMS, infertility, miscarriage, menopause, heart disease and fibromyalgia; and provides educational support in the prevention and even reversal of osteoporosis. Studies also show that the ionizing radiation from mammography X-ray exams is harmful to the mammary glands and can actually cause cancer, or stimulate cancer that may already exist. This work also explains how women can avoid the all-too-common recommendation of a hysterectomy. Research shows how progesterone opposes estrogen's stimulatory effect on cell growth, as found in endometriosis, fibroids and cancers of the breast, uterus, ovaries and prostate in men. The Cancer Chapter discusses the dangers of environmental and endogenous estrogens, for both men and women. It also provides the many natural alternatives which have been proven to combat cancer.
