Dr。 Sara Gottfried’s Women, Food, and Hormones, a well-written book for women, helps women balance their hormones so they can lose weight and feel better。 Her four-week plan, included in her book, and her recipes and resources will help you achieve your goal。 This well-researched, informative book is a wonderful resource and one I know I will refer to often。

Such a great book to gather information, learn about your body (as a woman) and to eat to gain strength in yourself。 I truly enjoyed reading this book and gaining such knowledge that gave me new perspectives on food, its affects on our female bodies and how to feed ourselves to gain control and power from within。Thank you Sara Gottfried, Netgalley and the publisher, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt for my complimentary copy in exchange for an honest review。

This book really gave me a lot of insight as to why I wasn't losing weight on Keto。 It provided really extensive research and easy to follow explanation about how to think about hormones during middle aged。 I recommend it totally for that reason。 However, if you are looking for recipes and are a picky eater, this is not a place to look。 While a few gave me some good ideas, it was hard to find something for a semi-vegetarian。 The recipe section was smaller than I expected (with the annotations ta This book really gave me a lot of insight as to why I wasn't losing weight on Keto。 It provided really extensive research and easy to follow explanation about how to think about hormones during middle aged。 I recommend it totally for that reason。 However, if you are looking for recipes and are a picky eater, this is not a place to look。 While a few gave me some good ideas, it was hard to find something for a semi-vegetarian。 The recipe section was smaller than I expected (with the annotations taking up more pages than the recipes)。 I just felt this book could have had more recipes with more variety。 So 3 stars for all the work and research though! 。。。more

The advice and information given are easy to read and understand and although I NOT SURE WHAT 'MY OLD SELF" is, maybe that girl can come out and introduce herself to her hubby who has only known her as a hormonal hag! (my words, not his!) and work through and the recipes are well written and understandable by cooks of all levels and the photos make the food very appealing to myself and other lovers of food out there。I especially love the book because it uses mostly whole ingredients instead of pre-prepared and packaged foods。 I do draw the line at making my own cheese beyond a quickly-made mozzarella, and canning tomatoes but the more "ingredients" you use the better。 My one nephew says that I never have any food in my house, only ingredients --- that is why I cook so much。 I also refuse to eat or cook with Frankenfoods such as "chick'n" and its 88 ingredients vs。 🐔chicken🐔 having one and cheese that does not come from an animal is udder nonsense!)As always, I try to find a reason to not rate with stars as I simply adore emojis (outside of their incessant use by "🙏-ed Social Influencer Millennials/#BachelorNation survivors/Tik-Tok and YouTube Millionaires/snowflakes / literally-like-overusers etc。 " on Instagram and Twitter。。。 Get a real job, people!) so let's give it 🧘🧘🧘🧘🧘 。。。more

[Reviewing uncorrected page proofs] Dr。 Gottfried presents her Gottfried Protocol--in simplified terms, a modified keto diet for women that is more alkaline than traditional keto。 She is an advocate of intermittent fasting。 As with any drastic diet change, for goodness sake, consult your own physician first! She includes a section on what to do when you fall off the wagon as keto is fairly unforgiving and does not allow for "cheat" days。 Also, half of the book is a collection of recipes and meal [Reviewing uncorrected page proofs] Dr。 Gottfried presents her Gottfried Protocol--in simplified terms, a modified keto diet for women that is more alkaline than traditional keto。 She is an advocate of intermittent fasting。 As with any drastic diet change, for goodness sake, consult your own physician first!
