Combating The Symptoms Of Menopause

OK, I'm feeling a little snarky today, so I decided to take on this article in from NJToday.net. The author, who is the president of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynogologists, is obviously not a fan of bioidentical hormone replacement therapy. Fact---although numerous studies have been done overseas studying the efficacy and safety of bioidentical hormones, there will likely never be large studies done in the US, because the pharmaceutical companies have no interest in studying substances they can not patent (US law prohibits patenting anything that occurs in nature). Since the FDA is pretty much in Big Pharma's pocket----you can see where I am going here.

Make it a great day ---- much needed rain here in Charlotte. I'm up and running early waiting on the plumber, guess I will get in a weight workout as soon as he leaves (fitness walk if the rain abates).
