Have you cleaned your colon today?, September 22, 2001

Ian Vance (pagosa springs CO.) -

This review is from: Internal Cleansing : Rid Your Body of Toxins to Naturally and Effectively Fight Heart Disease, Chronic Pain, Fatigue, PMS and Menopause Symptoms, and More (Revised 2nd Edition) (Paperback)

The consequences of poor hygiene are quickly evident. If you don't brush your teeth, they rot. If you don't wash your hair, it gets matted and oily. If you don't take care of your skin, there is a strong possibility of acne and, in the long run, premature aging lines. These black-and-white rules of basic sanitation have become indelible in the modern era, championed by purveyors of social etiquette and cosmetic companies. But what about hygiene inside the body? How does one go about cleaning out the cumulated toxins and other icky stuff built up in The Place that Shall Never Be Mentioned?

For a comprehensive guide on just such hygiene, look no further than Linda Berry's _Internal Cleaning_. A chiropractor and clinical nutritionist, Ms. Berry has over 25 years experience in the practice of cleansing/detoxification, and a fast perusal of the topics covered and the clear, concise writing style show that she really knows what's up in the nether regions.

Berry begins with a section detailing the myriad toxins that we ingest on a day-to-day basis, some knowingly, others not: from obvious culprits like MSG flavoring and hydronized oils, to all those mysterious additives intended on extending the shelf-life; from animal steroids in the bulk of beef to the minerals and metals lurking in that clear glass of water; Berry details an astonishing amount of chemicals and carcinogenics that most probably have a detrimental effect on our health and happiness. This section contains a breakdown of how the digestive system works, explaining what substances pass through easily and what clogs up the pipes. Also included: environmental toxins, household toxins, pesticides and plastics, hormones and drugs.

After a simple test designed to find out the individual's current level of stress, Berry outlines a variety of cleansing programs, from simple juice fasts to powder-supplements targeting certain organs (liver, kidneys, lymph etc). A long discourse on diet comes next, complete with a guide of healthy alternative recipes. Berry completes the book with a section on practices that compliment these diet/cleansing techniques; an essential conclusion, but I wish she had gone in more detail about the importance of mastication, exercise, and positive thinking.

An important book for anyone concerned with keeping the body healthy & whole.

Internal Cleansing: Rid your body of Toxins and Return to Vi, June 1, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Internal Cleansing: Rid Your Body of Toxins and Return to Vibrant Good Health (Paperback)

This book was quite informative. Certain sections were fairly indepth - for instance the Toxins in Our Food and Evnvironment Section was extensive and easy to understand. The self-exam section and pictorials are good, but also in other publications.

The first part of the book could have been a more informed overview, thus more understandable for people not attuned to the aspects of inner cleansing.

My biggest problem with this book, and it is a very big one, is that it recommends a few company's products, which are not necessarily the best on the market. Some are powdered nutrients that aren't totally accessible to constipated systems and some are fiber capsules that can be self defeating, even harmful for some people. The formulas suggested from different companies and Multi-level Marketing organizations, are not balanced, and throw together herbs for different body systems ( we can't just throw together some wonderful herbs and expect them to work in a balanced manner for that specific body system, which just confuses the body's natural cleansing function), laxative or stimulating herbs (which should never be taken for any length of time), and not relating to consumers that need to effectively and safely cleanse the body. We must gently, but totally cleanse each body system (or organ) separately. Other than 'the fiber capsules', the colon cleansing recommendations is adequate, but the information and products on the other organs or problems (liver, kidneys, arteries, lungs, parasites) is not up to date or very informative. If this book was more objective (without selling products), it would be much more credible.

What an elementary read. Most of what is outlined in this "book" can easily be gleaned from the Internet. I returned it for a refund immediately after reading it, as most of the supposed advice is common sense. Don't waste your time.

It seems to work, April 9, 2011

Kitchen Godess "Cookie" (Keno, OR USA) -

This review is from: One-A-Day Women's Menopause Formula Multivitamin, 50-tablet Bottle (Health and Beauty)

I started experiencing menopausal symptoms about 18 months ago, the most noticeable and annoying being the hot flashes and night sweats. I read about this menopause formula and figured it was worth a try. I've been taking it for a month now, and I have noticed a significant decrease in both the frequency and severity of the hot flashes and night sweats. It took about two weeks before I noticed any changes. I haven't had any night sweats for about two weeks, and the hot flashes are more like warm tingles. I was having hot flashes about every 15 or 20 minutes during the day, now it's only 3 or 4 warm spells. I still get a few warm spells during the night, but no more throwing back the covers and dealing with puddles of sweat 10 times a night. Most nights I don't even wake up. Yea! I am very pleased with the results of One A Day Menopause formula and plan to continue using it. It's a little expensive, but for me it's worth it. It works for me! If you decide to try it, give it a few weeks to kick in.

It works for me..., August 2, 2010

Look, i'm not saying this is the perfect cure-all tablet for those going through the annoying and painful process of Menopause; However, I have experienced a huge difference since taking the One-a-Day Women's Menopause formula.

After taking this tablet once a day for 2 months, my hot flashes and night sweats have greatly reduced to almost nothing (I used to suffer terrible heat waves followed by sweat all over my face and legs!!! During the night it was a constant battle of "covers off/covers on" as I would get very hot and sweaty, only to suddenly get cold and shivery -- hard to get any sleep because of these menopause symptoms)

The feeling of calmness has increased, so that means better sleep and feeling less anxious/stressed out, making my husband happier instead of fearing the "Mad Woman of Redwood City".

To be fair, I was on hormone therapy - PrepmPro - for one year (April 2009 - April 2010) because my hot flashes and emotional rollercoaster were out of control and literally making me crazy. Yes, the menopause symptoms stopped; Unfortunately, the side affects that hit me were the monthly migraine headaches, which had gotten so bad that I ended up in ER because the pain would not go away and I thought I was having a stroke. I had suffered migraines before when I was on birth-control back in my 20's - i had stopped those immediately after a 2-week bout of migraines. I did the same with the Prempro -I stopped taking them exactly 1 year after starting those pills, and after I ended up at the hospital. I've been off Prempro for 3.5 months, and during that time I have not had any kind of headache since - so the hormones in the Prempro were the true culprit.

Yes, there are many "natural remedies" out there for women going through the change of life; but what can work for one person, may not work for another. Same thing with prescription drugs.

My experience in taking One-A-Day-Menopause Forumula is that it works for me, and I am happy with the current results.

All I need to find now is the cure for the Menopause "weight gain"!!!

This review is from: The Menopause Bible: The Complete Practical Guide to Managing Your Menopause (Paperback)

I realized I had to buy several books on menopause because they all add a little bit more to the puzzle. this is a really nice book. it's quality. not cheaply put together. the pages are glossy and the pictures are nice. it not only tells me all about the symptoms, options, etc... but how to put on make-up as you age, how to tell if you have breast cancer with all the options. how to do exams. Just a wide variety of things. it covered small details I didn't get in other books. It was a good purchase...

Every woman over fifty should own this book., December 10, 2010

This review is from: The Menopause Bible: The Complete Practical Guide to Managing Your Menopause (Paperback)

I came across this book while looking for books on menopause. It sounded impressive and the price was right so i purchased it. I am so glad I did. Finally, someone has gathered together straightforward information without any agenda other than to give women the information they need to make informed decisions. Most of the chapters are written by doctors from Britain. (The EEC countries have a much more intelligent approach to dealing with menopause than the United States. For example, the use of Premarin and similar drugs via a patch is widespread in Europe, because studies there have made it clear that this form of delivery does not involve higher rates of, e.g., breast cancer and, additionally, has been shown to significantly reduce the chances of Alzheimer's.) This book should be available at every Ob/Gyn's office.
