Hi Greg,

Thanks for the sites above... very helpful. Went to that gov site and looked

up a few foods... wow.. almost too much information! haha ..what a breakdown

of foods. This would certainly enable someone to pinpoint their diet!

 

A friend of mine called and asked me about the following: She has been put

on hormone replacement as she is into menopause. Dr. has her taking Prempro

for a month to get her up to par, then told her she could use a more natural

product like: Ameritus which is a phyto estroderm(sp). Anyone know what is

in a phytoestroderm product or a product that will match it? Dr. said she

could get it at a health food store. Shes pleased that he recommended a

natural replacement rather than pharm. meds... thumbs up for him!

 

This is a great list ...not sure who invited me... but thanks!

Terri

There are many software packages which use the USDA database to anallyze your

diet and provide a complete breakdown of

ALL your nutrient intakes.

 

I use such a package and have been able to modify my diet to get many times the

RDI without using supplements while

reducing calorie intake at the same time.

 

Sometimes we eat based on our bodies need for some nutrient that is low.

Hi Terri,

 

My wife is 55 and uses Tibolone as her HRT, isoflavones from soy and lignans

from flax. She is doing very well and has

bone density of a 40 year old, great skin and libido to match.
