A handbook for how we can use the power of our hormones to master
any stage of life. Joint pain, weight gain, migraines, acne,
sleepless nights, loss of libido - all of these and more can be
caused by hormone imbalances. Our health is impacted by our
hormones all the way through our lives. So why do we often assume
they're mainly 'a menopause thing', and wait until hot flushes
arrive before we take them seriously? The truth is that many women
find that their hormone-related symptoms aren't acknowledged,
despite the impact they can have, years before menopause hits, on
almost every aspect of their lives. With advances in medical
science, however, effective new treatment options are available,
including modern hormone replacement therapy (HRT), diet, and
exercise. So why don't more of us know that help is at hand? Why
are we still being told that we have to put up with these
conditions? Our Hormones, Our Health is written by two doctors who
draw on their experience as practitioners, and as women. With the
aid of pioneering research from epigenetics, stress medicine,
nutritional medicine, and modern HRT, they show us how women can
live with health and happiness - no matter what their age.
Previously unpublished stories by the bestselling author of Alone
in Berlin. In September 1925, Hans Fallada handed himself in to the
police. Not yet a bestselling author, Fallada had repeatedly
embezzled funds to finance his alcohol and morphine addictions.
Desperate to escape his demons, he sought a prison cell. Now court
documents from Fallada's imprisonment have recently been uncovered,
and with them a never-before-seen collection of short stories.
Through complex characters at odds with society, Fallada explored
the lived the lives of women and male outsiders. These stories
reveal to a new generation of readers Fallada's immense gifts and
his intense inner battles.
For readers of Entangled Life and The Hidden Life of Trees, a
fascinating journey into the world of plants and animals, and the
ways they communicate with each other. In forests, fields, and even
gardens, there is a constant exchange of information going on.
Animals and plants must communicate with one another to survive,
but they also tell lies, set traps, talk to themselves, and speak
to each other in a variety of unexpected ways. Here, behavioural
biologist Madlen Ziege reveals the fascinating world of nonhuman
communication. In charming, humorous, and accessible prose, she
shows how nature's language can help us to understand our own place
in the natural world a little better.
