Description

Leslie Beck's Nutrition Guide for Women provides in-depth information that is easy to understand, lifestyle-relevant, and based on current scientific evidence. This complete reference on women's health is written for all women. It's for healthy women who want to stay well and lower their chances of disease and for women who have a specific health condition and want to do whatever they can through diet and supplements to manage it.

Symptoms, risk factors, and treatment or prevention strategies are outlined for women's common health conditions, including breast cancer, chronic fatigue syndrome, depression, heart disease, infertility, perimenopause, premenstrual syndrome, and urinary tract infections. Recommendations include dietary strategies, vitamin and mineral supplements, and herbal remedies.
