This book was extremely helpful to me during perimenopause. I found myself crying at inappropriate times, snapping at people who didn't deserve, not remembering the littlest things and unable to focus or even speak coherently at times. I absolutely thought I was losing my mind.

This book helps to delve into what is actually going on and offers suggestions in the way of nutritional supplements that I can truly say helped me cope. I recommend any one who has severe PMS and is in their young thirties and up consider reading this book and trying many of the suggestions offered. This saved my marriage, job and sanity!
