in their bodies than women entering menopause?
Womens health expert and herbalist Susun Weed, author of New
Menopausal Years The Wise Woman Way, Alternative Approaches for Women
30-90, says todays women are barraged with conflicting
advice, obsolete misconceptions, and misinformation.
An internationally recognized authority on herbal medicine, Weed was
inspired to rewrite, update, and expand her best-selling menopausal
bible based on the latest science after listening to the issues and
questions of 50,000 women over the past ten years.
Some topics Weed can discuss:
* What is menopause? The premenopausal years, menopausal climax years,
and postmenopausal years each have distinct symptoms, energetic changes,
and nutritional requirements women need to understand.
* Are herbs safe? Using herbs simply and safely
detailed dosage
recommendations for menopausal symptoms
recipes
warnings about
commercially available products.
* The HRT controversy. The latest scientific reports warning about
the dangers of hormone replacement therapy
safe, effective, heart-healthy
alternatives to HRT.

herbs, and nutrition.
* Natural remedies for common problems. Proven remedies for menopausal
symptoms, including hot flashes, low libido, dry vagina, menstrual problems,
fibroids, heart disease, brittle bones, hairy problems, restless legs
syndrome, and midlife weight gain.

and spokesperson for integrative approaches to womens health,
using complementary natural remedies to resolve health problems with
the least possible side effects.

Post-Menopausal Bone Health
An excellent source for your piece on bone density is Susun Weed, one
of Americas foremost authorities on herbal medicine and complementary/natural
approaches to womens health.
Weed has just updated her best-selling book on menopause (the original
edition sold half a million copies), called New Menopausal Years
The Wise Woman Way, Alternative Approaches for Women 30 to 90
(Ash Tree Publishing, Jan. 2002).
Weed has written extensively on the topic of bone density in postmenopausal
women. She can give you detailed information on what women should be
looking for, how they can prevent breaks and fractures, common risk
factors for osteoporosis, and what women can do to actively build better
bones -- starting at any age.
In addition, Weed can discuss:
* How misinformation about osteoporosis is leading doctors and patients
astray
* The truth about the correlation between low bone mass and fracture
rates
* Why strong, flexible bones are superior to massive, rigid ones
* Why calcium supplements may not be very helpful
* Why drugs that increase bone mass are dangerous
* Which foods and beverages leach calcium from the body
* Best bone-building exercises, herbs, and foods
* How to prevent osteoporosis even if you are at high risk

Weight Gain Good for Midlife Women
For women over forty, gaining weight is all too easy. Researchers are
finding, however, that weight gain can actually protect midlife women
from
cardiovascular disease and improve their mortality.
A new study reported in the September/October issue of Menopause found
that
moderate weight gain had a protective effect among the leanest postmenopausal
women studied, primarily due to a more than threefold decrease in
cardiovascular disease mortality risk.
Susun Weed, internationally known herbalist and author of the newly
revised
classic, New Menopausal Years: The Wise Woman Way (Ash
Tree Publishing, Nov. 2001), recommends that menopausal women gain ten pounds over five to
ten
years.
But not ten ordinary pounds, Weed adds. "You want ten pounds of
healthy fat
supported by muscle and bone. And you want to gain that weight very,
very
slowly."
America's leading authority on natural approaches to menopause, Weed
can
discuss:
a.. Why women who gain weight during menopause have less severe hot
flashes
and denser bones
b.. Which high-calorie, hormone-rich foods are best to eat during menopause
c.. Which foods are rich in minerals your body needs during the menopausal
years
d.. Why one beer a week slowly increases your weight while it improves
memory, soothes nerves, and bolsters the immune system
e.. Why many herbal remedies sold for weight loss can disturb heart
function, cause excessive fluid loss, and disrupt electrolyte balance
f.. Why diet drugs may lead to life-threatening events during the
menopausal years, when heart and adrenal functions are unstable
Weed recognizes that weight gain is one of the most difficult aspects
of
menopause for many women to accept. For those who are determined to
lose
weight in midlife, despite the difficulties, Weed offers diet tips,
appetite
foolers, exercise techniques, and herbal allies to help them shed pounds
with
minimal side effects.

Weed directly and send you her new book and press kit.

Common Health Problems
I have a great source for your piece on treating common health problems.
She is Susun Weed, one of Americas foremost authorities on herbal
medicine and complementary/natural approaches to healing and health.
Weed advocates a Six Steps to Healing approach to help people solve
health problems with the least possible side effects, advising that
people start with preventive or very gentle measures first before moving
up the remedial ladder to extremely strong or dangerous approaches,
such as drugs and surgery.
Let us go right down your list with some of Weeds natural remedies:
Headaches/migraines: Blinking red lights can relieve extreme or severe
migraines, within an hour, 72 percent of the time. Wear goggles that
restrict side vision for maximum effect. Tea, infusion, or tincture
of garden sage leaves offers immediate relieve from a headache, as does
black cohosh root tincture or a vinegar of willow leaves. Ten drops
of the tincture or 1 teaspoon/15 ml of the vinegar is equivalent to
two aspirins. (She can provide recipes for tinctures and vinegars.)
Mental/spiritual approach: Like fatigue, headache is a way for you to
get some time alone. Follow your instinct: Lie in total silence, in
complete darkness, and sleep until the headache is gone. Ask yourself:
Is finding time for yourself becoming a headache?
Digestive problems: If your problem is constipation, slippery foods
such as slippery elm bark powder, oats, seaweed, flax seed, and seeds
from wild plantago (cultivated psyllium) are wonderful allies. Adding
a teaspoon of any, or all, to a cup of rolled oats and cooking until
thick in 3 cups water is a delicious remedy. If gas pain is the problem,
plain yogurt is the solution. Sometimes even a tiny mouthful will bring
instant relief. Mental/spiritual approach: Bless your food out loud
before you eat; say grace; thank the plants and animals who nourish
you; breathe in and feel grateful.
Menstrual problems: Black haw and cramp bark, both virburnums, are
superb allies for menstrual cramping. The tincture of either is an astringent
tonic, powerful antispasmodic, and rich source of hormonal precursors.
Take 10-20 drops in water as often as needed. Mental/spiritual approach:
Sit in a hot bath and flow, melt, dissolve, relax, release, let go.
Low libido: Best Rx for low libido is seven orgasms a week, with or
without your partner, whether you feel like it or not, all in one day
or spread over seven days. Pursue this remedy earnestly, like a therapy,
and you will quickly notice a measurable increase in libido. Continue
for at least three months. Mental/spiritual approach: Spend a quiet
moment each morning with your eyes closed, take deep breaths, and focus
on how good your body feels.
Sleep problems: Oatstraw strengthens your nervous system, smooths your
energy flow, and gives you more restful sleep. Try a cup of infusion
before bed, warm, with milk. For complete insomnia, when you need something
very strong that acts as both a painkiller and sleep inducer, take some
delicious, aromatic skullcap tincture. Use 30-60 drops of dried-plant
tincture, or 3-8 drops made from fresh flowing plant as a dose. Drink
it in water ten minutes before bed. Mental/spiritual approach: Put away
all clocks and watches for a few days. Dont listen to the radio
or ask the time. Let the earth and moon and sun provide your timing.
Not surprisingly, Weed has a worldwide following and her books have
sold over a half-million copies. Her latest title is New Menopausal
Years The Wise Woman Way (Ash Tree Publishing, Nov. 2001).

Weed directly and send you her new book and press kit.

The Dangers of Soy
Did you know that consuming large amounts of tofu, soy milk, soy nuts,
and
other unfermented soy products such as "fake" hot dogs, cheese,
and cold cuts
can pose real dangers to women's health?
This, according to best-selling author, international lecturer, and
herbalist
Susun S. Weed, who says that too many women wrongly believe that soy
is
beneficial, particularly for relief of menopausal symptoms.
A report in the September 2001 Annals of Pharmacology states that women
with
current or past breast cancer should be aware of the risks of potential
tumor
growth when consuming soy products. October's Carcinogenesis and November's
Journal of Nutrition each report similar findings.
In addition to endangering breast health, unfermented soy contains substances
that interfere with our ability to liberate, utilize, or create key
nutrients, such as calcium, zinc, vitamin B12, and thyroid hormone.
This
increases the likelihood of:
a.. Brittle bones
b.. Serious thyroid problems
c.. Memory loss
d.. Vision impairment
e.. Irregular heartbeat
f.. Increased risk of stroke
g.. Liver damage
h.. Allergic reactions
i.. Depression
j.. Vulnerability to infections
Is all soy bad? On the contrary, says Weed. In fact, miso, tamari, tempeh,
and natto are extremely beneficial foods because they are fermented,
which
increases soy's mineral availability.
In her newly revised classic for menopausal women, New Menopausal
Years: The
Wise Woman Way (Ash Tree Publishing, Nov. 2001), Weed dispels
this and other
myths regarding dietary and medical recommendations for women in midlife.
Her
book is still the definitive bible for natural approaches to menopause.

Weed directly and send you her new book and press kit.

Holistic Approaches
Susun Weed would be perfect to represent the "yes to holistic
approaches" viewpoint for your piece on cancer.
Weed is regarded as one of the country's leading authorities on herbal
medicine and complementary/natural approaches to healing and health.
She is a best-selling author, a prominent media figure on national radio
and television, director of the Wise Woman Center, an educational center
in upstate, New York, and an international lecturer and teacher.
Weed strongly believes in every individuals right to choose the
course of treatment with which he or she feels most comfortable. She
advocates an integrative approach, rather than an exclusionary one.
For those who have chosen the traditional, Western approach to cancer
treatment (chemotherapy, radiation, surgery), she recommends herbal
allies and complementary remedies that can ease the toxic burden,
alleviate side effects, and boost immunity.
Known for her vast knowledge and voracious reading, researching, and
studying habits, Weed can cite the very latest scientific evidence in
support of her recommendations and advice. She can discuss:
-- the ideal anticancer diet
-- which foods work against healing and immunity, and why
-- immune building herbs and anticancer herbs, including a nutritious
soup recipe
-- the role of certain fats in promoting cancer
-- a powerful herb that can be taken for a short course before one resorts
to drugs
-- why it is important to always combine drugs such as painkillers and
chemotherapy with protective herbs
-- the healing role of exercise
-- why beans and lentils and fermented foods are super for cancer sufferers
-- surprising new evidence about two common vitamins and why cancer
sufferers should avoid them
Weeds books are widely recommended by physicians and medical
groups, and have sold over a half-million copies. Her latest title is
New Menopausal Years The Wise Woman Way (Ash Tree Publishing,
Nov. 2001).
Please let me know if I can put you in touch with Susun
Weed directly and send you her new book and press kit.

Natural Alternatives to Antibiotics
I have an excellent source for your "natural alternatives to antibiotics"
piece. She is Susun Weed, founder of the Wise Woman Center in upstate
New
York and the author of five critically acclaimed books on alternative
health
care for women. Weed's books are well-regarded by M.D.s, who recommend
them
to patients seeking reputable, well-researched sources of information
about
complementary remedies.
In a recent book about breast cancer, Weed devotes an entire chapter
to
immunity building. She discusses the anti-bacterial and/or immune
strengthening uses of many herbs including: echinacea, yarrow, poke,
usnea,
stinging nettle, garlic, astragalus, and ginseng.
Unlike many herbal advisors, Weed can give you the scholarly whys and
well as
the whats. She is also well-versed on the pros and cons of nutritional
supplements (nutriceuticals) as viable alternatives to antibiotics,
and can
tell you which herbal medicines really do strengthen immunity -- and
the
chemical reasons why they do.
Please let me know if I can put you in touch with Susun
Weed directly and send you her new book and press kit.

Since she began studying herbal medicine thirty-six years ago, Weed
has garnered an international reputation for her groundbreaking lectures,

Herbal Alternative to Vitamin Supplements
I have a great source for your piece on new scientific findings regarding
vitamin and mineral supplements. She is Susun Weed, one of Americas
foremost authorities on herbal medicine and complementary/natural approaches
to womens health.
Weed has just updated her best-selling book on menopause (the original
edition sold half a million copies), called New Menopausal Years The
Wise Woman Way, Alternative Approaches for Women 30 to 90 (Ash Tree
Publishing, Jan. 2002). I think you will find her a mother lode of data,
facts, and insights for your piece.
I thought of you and your article when I read today a new study by
Qing Jang of University of California, at the Department of Molecular
and Cell Biology, Berkeley, in which he and his colleagues have uncovered
startling differences between vitamin E found in plants and the synthesized
form of vitamin E found in supplements. The natural form has a long
list of additional benefits not attributed to supplemental E.
Susun Weed has long promoted the advantages of obtaining vitamins and
minerals from natural sources, most notably from plants and herbs. Why?
Because natural sources enable you to control dosage and purity, thus
decreasing harmful side effects.
Weed can discuss:
* most important vitamins and minerals for women of child-bearing age
* how to combat cancer, digestive problems, heart disease, low energy,
diabetes, bad skin, weak bones, and other common health problems with
vitamin/herb remedies
* food and herbal sources of important vitamins and minerals
* tips for preparing your own herbal vinegars and tinctures
* reliable mail-order sources for organic plants, weeds, seeds, and
herbal preparations
* how to grow your own vitamin-rich weeds no matter where you live
Weed is legendary for her encyclopedic knowledge of herbs, her voracious
appetite for up-to-date information (she reads about 100 scientific
and health journals a month), and her unabashedly pro-woman stance.

Top Ten Power Foods for Women
I have a good source for your piece on top-ten power foods for women.
She is best-selling author, international lecturer, and herbalist Susun
S. Weed.
Her newly revised classic for menopausal women, New Menopausal Years:
The Wise Woman Way (Ash Tree Publishing, Nov. 2001), is still the definitive
bible that women aged 30 to 90 turn to for advice on a wide range of
health issues, including diet.
Weed is an outspoken advocate for women, and wants to bring two foods
to your attention. One is among the best things a woman can consume.
The other is one of the worst.
Let me give you the bad news first. Soy (in its unfermented form).
Too many women wrongly believe that soy is beneficial, particularly
for relief of menopausal symptoms.
Did you know that consuming large amounts of tofu, soy milk, soy nuts,
and other unfermented soy products such as fake hot dogs,
cheese, and cold cuts can pose real dangers to womens health?
A report in the September 2001 Annals of Pharmacology states that women
with current or past breast cancer should be aware of the risks of potential
tumor growth when consuming soy products. The October 2001 Carcinogenesis
and November 2001 Journal of Nutrition each report similar findings.
In addition to endangering breast health, unfermented soy contains
substances that interfere with our ability to liberate, utilize, or
create key nutrients, such as calcium, zinc, vitamin B12, and thyroid
hormone. This increases the likelihood of:
* brittle bones
* serious thyroid problems
* memory loss
* vision impairment
* irregular heartbeat
* increased risk of stroke
* liver damage
* allergic reactions
* depression
* vulnerability to infections
Is all soy bad? On the contrary, says Weed. In fact, miso, tamari,
tempeh, and natto are extremely beneficial foods because they are fermented,
which increases soys mineral availability. Therefore, if you include
soy in your list, Weed urges that you please make sure it is one of
the fermented types, above.
Okay, on with the good news. Red clover. Weed will explain how to prepare
red clover into a delicious beverage that all women before, during,
and after menopause can drink for the following benefits:
* keeps you hormonally fit
* reduces premature menopause
* improves your chances of having a child after 40
* moderates the intensity of hot flashes
* prevents and reverses breast cancer
* improves memory, clears confusion, and increases energy
* eases anxiety
* relieves muscle and joint pain, diminishes headaches
* keeps your skin supple and healthy, and increases vaginal lubrication
* eases incontinence, relieves cystitis
* prevents osteoporosis
* prevents strokes
* helps build strong bones
She can go into greater detail about how red clover has been shown
to have all of the above benefits. By the way, as a sidebar to your
piece, you might be interested in one of Weeds most famous recipes
for women, Strong Bone Stew.

Weed directly and send you her new book and press kit.

Garlic - Ally for Menopausal Women
An excellent resource for your piece on garlic is Susun Weed, internationally
renowned herbalist and expert on womens health and healing.
