		<description><![CDATA[This email just in: "Lyn, when I went to my OBGYN in March for my annual exam, she had an absolute FIT that I was taking estrogen!!  She said that it is very dangerous and could cause heart attacks, etc.  I discontinued everything immediately. Since I have gotten conflicting recommendations, I'm not doing anything. Regardless, thanks for checking on me."

My response is this....

    This is where education and knowledge of what we do is imperative. Especially since we are led to believe that everything our conventionally trained doctors say is absolute truth. What I know is that what we do is in the realm of Functional Medicine and we actually work to find and heal the cause of health issues, like depleted hormone levels.

		<description><![CDATA[ I just received an email from one of our long-standing HHC clients. She says, "Hi Lyn.
Just wanted to check in to let you know that I lost my mother in March. It was so sad to see
her lose her battle against osteoporosis. My mom took every bone-building drug on the market. Not one of them did anything to help. In fact, two years ago she took Reclast.  That was the beginning of the end for her. She had a bad reaction and developed a severe kidney infection. She lost over 50 lbs and became very depressed. She broke 2 more bones in her back a year after taking Reclast.]]></description>

My belly IS a lot flatter. Now I need to find a way to tighten up the loose skin. Since January I have been working out 1 hour a day and sweating. Two days a week I have been working out with a weight trainer. I now love the way my body looks and feels! I am so much healthier.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ I love it when women tell me this....right after they tell me the reason the doctor they went to talked them out of natural hormone therapy....and into a
sleeping aid, antidepressant or estrogen product (FDA-approved, of course, because we know they HAVE to be safe, right?) "But, Lyn!
He's the doctor!!"]]></description>

Would you keep it to yourself? Would you tell just your closest friends and family members? Would you do whatever it takes to get that word out there IN SPITE of the resistance you know it will generate?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ I'm always fascinated when I hear women who have "gone through the change of life" say, "I've gone through menopause so I don't have to worry about hormones anymore.". This happens especially when these women know I am going to be the featured speaker for a group they belong to. Their response is often, "I guess this doesn't pertain to me." This fascinates me on several levels. First of all, I never intended my Happy Hormone Cottage to be about menopause.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[And so it goes. We meet with women constantly, listen to their stories, gather information, educated them in the area of natural hormone balance, determine they do indeed have a hormone imbalance (as do most women over the age of about 35), give them a strategy for getting their hormone levels tested,  write the recommendation for their hormone balance for their doctor or health care practitioner, which is then faxed to them for their visit with our client, and then the rest is out of our hands. Once we fax our recommendation for our client's natural hormone balance to the client's doctor, it is up to that doctor and our client what the outcome will be.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ I think you've probably heard the word on the street that our reason for being, our passion, is educating and empowering women to live their best life naturally. Such a great cause and one that is desperately needed in our society today. I've said it before and I'll say it again: if women were better and felt well, as they aged, then we wouldn't be so busy! If, when issues developed,   doctors were treating the root cause of the issue, instead of just band aiding these issues to get rid of the symptoms, women would be better. But women aren't better! I see it every day as they stagger into our offices with obvious hormone imbalance issues of fatigue, weight gain, low libido, hair loss, sleeplessness, brain fog, adrenal fatigue, thyroid issues and no joy of life. And the worst part is that the traditional approach to dealing with these issues is just NOT working.]]></description>
