It's All Hormones! Why Our Body Has Hidden Mechanisms and How to Get Along with Them

There’s been plenty written about hormones already, but it was the enormous amount of information that led to the spread of all kinds of rumors and myths about hormones and hormone preparations. The topic is complicated, and there’s no place for speculation. This is what believes doctor-researcher, obstetrician-gynecologist Elena Berezovskaya. Especially if we’re talking about women’s health—because in a woman’s life, hormone levels constantly change: with age, due to the monthly cycle, pregnancy, and breastfeeding.

The author begins her book with reflections on what hormones are and what role they play in the human body, as well as where they are produced and how they are absorbed. Then she moves on to more complex questions. Are female hormones friends or enemies? Which hormones can be dangerous? What is an increased or decreased level of a given hormone—and is it always necessary to correct it? How can nutrition normalize hormone levels?

All of these topics are covered in detail in Elena Berezovskaya’s book “These Are All Hormones!”
