In the light of new discoveries, The NEW Natural Alternative to HRT reveals what the latest studies really show about HRT and its side effects - and not just what the drug companies want you to know. Written by one of the UK's leading nutritional therapists, Dr Marilyn Glenville, this book provides the most up-to-date, practical advice. Here you will discover how you can get rid of your menopausal symptoms naturally and prevent osteoporosis.
Packed with new information, you will find everything you need to know about:
- How to eliminate night sweats, hot flushes, vaginal dryness, weight gain, mood swings, headaches, aching joints, as well as improve your sex drive … without drugs or HRT.
- Which tests, supplements, herbs and diet will help you through the menopause.
- How natural is Natural Progesterone – is it safe? Does it increase the risk of breast cancer?
- Phytoestrogen supplements (soya and red clover) – are they effective and are they safe? (The answers may shock you).
- Mammograms - are they safe? Should you have one? What are the risks?

Are new 'designer' HRTs safe?
Does HRT increase the risk of DVT on flights?
Do mammograms cause more deaths than they save?
In the original Natural Alternatives to HRT I put forward my opinion that HRT could increase a woman's risk of heart disease and breast cancer. This has been borne out by the news that large-scale trials using HRT have had to be stopped because the risks have proved too great.
