The human body was made the way it was, to naturally grow and develop all within its own magnificent capabilities. Estrogen is a man made drug and with every foreign substance introduced into the body there are repercussions. The old saying, "The cure is worse than disease or illness," proves true in 90% of the instances where a person takes a foreign substance into his or her body. There are always, always contraindications to chemicals.

Apparently, from what little I have read and know about pharmacology and man's drugs, the actual ingredient in most prescription medications that is effective, that does the job that we are looking for, is the actual plant extract.

Well, I'm here to tell you, none of that happened and I'm in a lot better shape than the women who succumbed to the brainwashing of the pharmaceutical industry!
