The Hormone Secret: Discover Effortless Weight Loss and Renewed Energy in Just 30 Days

by Tami Meraglia, Daniel G. Amen (Foreword)

An expert in integrative medicine helps women lose weight and look and feel years younger with a simple, science-based thirty-day plan that focuses on one magic testosterone.As women grow older, many struggle to lose weight. Unlike men their age, women more often suffer from sleep problems, osteoporosis, and depression. Some even feel as though they age faster and less gracefully than their male counterparts. While there is ample discussion in the medical community about the effects of estrogen loss, more than ninety percent of women over age forty-five suffer from low testosterone levels. Dr. Tami Meraglia wants women to know that a healthy dose of testosterone can help you slim down, improve your moods, lower your risk for cardiac disease, increase energy and libido, prevent osteoporosis, enhance skin tone and texture, and possibly even prevent cognitive decline. In The Hormone Secret, Dr. Tami offers an evidence-based thirty-day plan to restore testosterone and balance the relative levels of other hormones, based on lifestyle modifications such as supplements and nutritional adjustments. She also offers a Mediterranean diet–based meal plan and low-impact exercise ideas that will immediately boost your energy. The Hormone Secret is an indispensable guide to taking back control of your hormones and improving your vitality for a strong—and long—life.

Not sure how relevant this was to me, but I was interested in the liver detox chapter!

Awesome Read

I would recommend this book to any woman wanting to get on track with her hormone levels. Excellent education for longevity.

[Nancy Urban · Rating 4 out of 5]

It was very informative and I felt like she was talking about me, however, too many vitamins to keep up with. Im sure if you follow her plan it could work.

Very informative for those struggling to balance their hormones. Lists specific foods, vitamins, and herbs that help.

I stumbled into this book while trying to navigate my health and the greatest mystery of all time for women, what’s going on with my body? I came across Dr Tami’s name numerous times and decided this book would be the first one I’d start with to try to see what I could do to help myself in terms of hormones. There was lots of great information in this book, and delivered perfectly. I felt well informed and educated, and didn’t feel overwhelmed, which can be easy with these types of books. While I did not actively follow the thirty day plan as the book is laid out to be, I have incorporated various bits of this book into my life and I feel I can directly credit the difference to this book. Definitely a book to keep on your shelf to reference back to!

After years of dealing with health issues and seeing multiple doctors without feeling understood or really helped, finding this book has been an answer to prayer. I have never been told I may have hormone deficiencies, but Dr. Meraglia describes my symptoms perfectly. Best of all, she teaches how to naturally treat yourself and heal your body for long-lasting wellness. This book has been a gift of hope for me. Though not a literary masterpiece, I intend to reference it often as I strive for a better quality of life.

Perfect and worth reading for women that deal with stress/fatigue. This is not a book that is just talking science, it connects science to overall wellbeing. Will definitely add to my recommended reads blog section.

FANTASTIC book! I did the audible version, so the reader had an intense and expressive voice that helped keep me focused on what she was saying. It was very insightful on hormones and now I know a bit more on how hormones work in our bodies.

Fantastic book. If you want to know what the mystery behind how your hormones work before/during/after menopause, this book will tell all!
