“I wanted to take my health into my OWN hands!”
Winona is a healthy, 37-year-old who suffered an unexplained 30-pound weight gain this past year plus symptoms of perimenopause. After she tested “normal” by conventional medical standards, her doctor could offer no solutions. So she took matters into her own hands and found us. Here’s what she has to say now:
“I am 37 years old, and this past year I have had all the blood tests imaginable to determine if I am perimenopausal, insulin resistant, have thyroid issues, or adrenal fatigue — all of which came back “normal” by standard medical interpretation. Yet this past year I have had an unexplained 30-pound weight gain and was diagnosed with situational depression. I was having incredible night sweats, hot flashes, drying skin, skipped periods — actually just about EVERY physical and emotional symptom of perimenopause listed in your website self test.
“I felt uncharacteristically miserable. Historically I have taken VERY good care of myself. I am a vegetarian who is physically active, spiritually grounded and USUALLY well balanced!.
“I wanted to take my health and healing into my OWN hands, I started doing some internet research — and thankfully found you!!!
“In just 4 weeks of taking the Essential Nutrients only (I decided not to use the progesterone cream) I am beginning to feel like my old self again. My mood has lifted, physical energy has returned, my mental focus also seems to be returning and I simply feel more balanced all around.
“Thank you again for this wonderful product!!!”
