Confused about which supplements to take? READ THIS!


Hello, Reader,

Of all of the questions I get, the one I am asked most frequently is “Which supplements should I be taking?”

Most people are totally confused and this is quite understandable given the amount of misinformation circulating on the internet. Add to that the fact that medical doctors receive very little training on nutrition/supplementation in medical school and few doctors offer any guidance whatsoever in this area AND the fact that supplements are a multi-billion dollar industry with heavy marketing online…..and what you’ve got is a population of people who are generally very uninformed and pretty mystified by the topic.

For women in midlife who are struggling with symptoms of perimenopause and menopause, supplements can be more important than ever, if and when we understand (1) what our wellness goals are, (2) what our unique needs are, (3) the benefits of certain supplements, and (4) how to use supplements in a way that will best support your body through the menopausal transition and beyond.

And this is where I come in….

In this week’s podcast, “Which Supplements Do I REALLY Need in Midlife?” I demystify the topic and share a LOT of information (everything I mentioned above and then some!), so make sure to listen to that episode and download the accompanying “Cheat Sheet.” This is the ‘go-to’ guide to supplementation for women over 40.

In other news…it’s finally feeling like spring in NY!! And along with spring comes the desire to ‘spring clean’ the house, throw open the windows, clear clutter and give everything a bit of a refresh.

To help you, I’ve compiled my favorite Non-Toxic Cleaning Products (remember, we want to avoid all of those endocrine disruptors in an effort to keep our hormones balanced!) Be sure to check out that post as well.

Have a wonderful, wellegant week, my friends!

Have you ever been in one of those on-again, off-again, toxic relationships that you knew you had to end, but you couldn’t quite seem to call it quits? Turns out that many of us have a similar connection—with sugar. It's that tempting, sweet "boyfriend" who keeps us coming back for more, even though we know it's not good for us. For a woman over 40, sugar is a complete menace, wreaking havoc on our hormonal system, our gut, our metabolism and our energy level. And the worst part is, just like...

Hey, Reader, Have you ever met a woman who just seemed to be rocking midlife? She’s fit and healthy, exudes confidence, lives with authenticity and a sense of purpose, and just seems to be lit up from within. When that woman walks into a room, people take notice. That’s because a woman who is "winning" midlife is a powerful creature. But we all know, that’s far from the ‘norm.’ Most women over 40 hardly feel as if they're "winning" midlife; in fact, many feel as if they're losing pretty badly...

Hey, there! Are you bored and uninspired by your wardrobe? Do you feel like you have lots of clothes but nothing to wear?

After a lot of trial and error, I hit on an...
