Over 250 Easy and Delicious Recipes for Menopause Women need estrogen, but estrogen levels diminish with age. In the short term, estrogen's departure leaves most women in a frequently overheated, uncomfortable state. In the long term, its exodus places their hearts, bones, and brains in harm's way. And conventional hormone replacement therapy, with its potentially distressing side effects and increased risk of breast cancer, doesn't provide a reassuring rescue. Faced with every menopausal woman's frightening estrogen dilemma, Nina Shandler discovered exciting news: Some foods contain estrogen. She headed straight for the kitchen and created this easy-to-swallow alternative. Part eating program, part cookbook, Estrogen: The Nat-ural Way shows women how to make fast, fun food using nature's estrogenic ingredients. From breakfast bars to soups, from main courses to desserts, Estrogen: The Natural Way provides a gentle yet effective version of estrogen replacement therapy. About the Author Nina Shandler has written about diet and health for more than twenty years and has published several cookbooks. She lives in western Massachusetts with her husband, Michael. They have two daughters. ''Estrogen: The Natural Way'' by Nina Shandler - 300 Page Paperback Book

Stylish, convincing, wise, funny?and just in time: the ultimate non-diet book, which could radically change the way you think and live. French women don?t get fat, but they do eat bread and pastry, drink wine, and regularly enjoy three-course meals. In her delightful tale, Mireille Guiliano unlocks the simple secrets of this ?French paradox??how to enjoy food and stay slim and healthy. Hers is a charming, sensible, and powerfully life-affirming view of health and eating for our times. As a typically slender French girl, Mireille (Meer-ray) went to America as an exchange student and came back fat. That shock sent her into an adolescent tailspin, until her kindly family physician, ?Dr. Miracle,? came to the rescue. Reintroducing her to classic principles of French gastronomy plus time-honored secrets of the local women, he helped her restore her shape and gave her a whole new understanding of food, drink, and life. The key? Not guilt or deprivation but learning to get the most from the things you most enjoy. Following her own version of this traditional wisdom, she has ever since relished a life of indulgence without bulge, satisfying yen without yo-yo on three meals a day. Now in simple but potent strategies and dozens of recipes you?d swear were fattening, Mireille reveals the ingredients for a lifetime of weight control?from the emergency weekend remedy of Magical Leek Soup to everyday tricks like fooling yourself into contentment and painless new physical exertions to save you from the StairMaster. Emphasizing the virtues of freshness, variety, balance, and always pleasure, Mireille shows how virtually anyone can learn to eat, drink, and move like a French woman. A natural raconteur, Mireille illustrates her philosophy through the experiences that have shaped her life?a six-year-old?s first taste of Champagne, treks in search of tiny blueberries (called myrtilles) in the woods near her grandmother?s house, a near-spiritual rendezvous with oysters at a seaside restaurant in Brittany, to name but a few. She also shows us other women discovering the wonders of ?French in action,? drawing examples from dozens of friends and associates she has advised over the years to eat and drink smarter and more joyfully. Here are a culture?s most cherished and time-honored secrets recast for the twenty-first century. For anyone who has slipped out of her zone, missed the flight to South Beach, or accidentally let a carb pass her lips, here is a buoyant, positive way to stay trim. A life of wine, bread?even chocolate?without girth or guilt? Pourquoi pas? Testimonials: ?It?s hard not to be enlivened by a [weight-control] book that celebrates both chocolate and bread, and espouses such wisdom as ?Life without pasta? Perish the thought.?? ?Lily Burana, Washington Post Book World ?The perfect book for the more literate dieter . . . A blueprint for building a healthy attitude toward food and exercise . . .

In this revolutionary new book, bestselling authors Carol Munter and Jane Hirschmann explore the myriad reasons why women cling to diets despite overwhelming evidence that diets don't work. In fact, diets turn us into compulsive eaters who are obsessed with food and weight. Munter and Hirschmann call this syndrome ''Bad Body Fever'' and demonstrate how ''bad body thoughts'' are clues to our emotional lives. They explore the difficulties women encounter replacing dieting with demand feeding. And finally, they teach us how to think about our problems rather than eat about them--so that food can resume its proper place in our lives. ''Many women will find in these pages exactly what they need: determined, optimistic, and resourceful coaches, pausing at the right moments to acknowledge the difficulty of change, then passionately urging them to press on.'' --Susan C. Wooley, Ph.D. Professor of Psychology Codirector, Eating Disorders Center University of Cincinnati Medical Center ''When Women Stop Hating Their Bodies'' by Jane R. Hirschmann - 384 Page Paperback
