Chapter 1 - Introductory Chapter

The photograph of me at the front of this book, was taken shortly before the 56th birthday. Yes it's a youthful picture. This book goes to the heart of the matter of our aging. This is the thing you've been waiting for, but have not discussed with anyone. These are things we normally don't discuss. No, I haven't lost my mind with all the water, raw and powdered roots, possible and controversial tooth pulling, and some or other unmentionables we'll get to in turn. You can take it all with a grain of salt, as that is also suggested here.

A new discovery, dramatically changes the way we view the menopause, and womens' aging generally. A woman is not born with a set number of eggs she'll use up in her reproductive years, as once thought. She instead produces new eggs throughout her reproductive years just as a man continually produces new sperm. The new question arises, what makes her stop producing eggs so relatively early?

With the new finding, Medicine's focus may now shift to the environment in which eggs are produced and then die off, ie. a woman's metabolism. food and waste, the immune system, and the pelvic environment itself. Now those health professionals who've been raising those subjects for years prior, can gain a greater part of the public ear.

Much has to happen, before our true needs will be met. I address here some most basic of our physical needs which the health care profession overlooks. Do you share my experience? As example, my amenhorria was reversed and menstruation was restored, in early age 20's with removal of silver (mercury) amalgam tooth fillings, effective hemorrhoid treatment at age 43 regulated my troubled menses more than hormone therapy could do, and drinking a quantity of water ended my hot flashes at age 47 and restored my waning menstruation at that time. Today at age 56, Wild Yam prepared in a unique way which I disclose here, raises my hormone levels.

Women, Food & Decay addresses our physical needs and differences as women, in an acute manner not ordinarily seen elsewhere. Another book of slightly earlier vintage, Women, Food & God reminds us of our separate physical being in a societal context and is a plea for self acceptance. The latter book is a bestseller. The one is as timely as the other I think, and please add my book to your reading list.
