Safe Hormones, Smart Women

Easy to read, recommended by my doctor

I just finished reading DL Berkson's "Safe Hormones, Smart Women" and I recommend this book to any woman, from her 20's thru her 80's, because it informs in an understandable way that sheds light on so much conflicting information. Berkson has a real gift for taking complex information and making it readable and enjoyable to boot! I'm an RN with an undergrad nutrition degree, and Berkson has given me back that original revved up inspiration I had for the field of nutrition so long ago-thank you Lindsey! Your enthusiasm and boundless humor kept me reading your book until the very end. And hormones?? For nurses and lay folks alike, this stuff can be confusing and Berkson has again managed to hand carry priceless information directly to us in a lighthearted, sisterly, yet intellectually stimulating way. This will be a resource book you will keep on your shelves for years to come.

I didn't know how much I didn't know until I read this book. Safe Hormones Smart Women is a gold mine of a book that no woman (or physician working with hormones) should be without. Lindsey Berkson has done all the digging, and has left no stone unturned on her mission to get the whole truth and nothing but the truth about hormones out to her readers. She has done an outstanding job of compiling, simplifying and organizing massive amounts of scientifically based information, resulting in the most comprehensive and user-friendly book on this subject that I have ever come across. Her easy-to-read conversational style of writing is punctuated with her own brand of humor that will keep you laughing while you're learning . . . lots and lots!

I was waiting for this book with a such a big hopes....but unfortunetely I was soooo dissopinted ....Honestly after reading this book I felt like someone just cheated on me, I felt betraid. The thought "another $20 spent for nothing" couldn't leave me until I placed this book for a re-sale here on Amazon......lolHow I feel much much better!So why I did not like this book you may ask!? Well the information L.Berkson covers in her book is very useless and just doesnt provide any knowledge at all. She is not a doctor to begin with; and since I have been reading lots of good educational health articles I found this book just maybe a very very first step for a women who is thinking about BHRT; just for the very beginners so to speak.Do your research ....check as many different books as you can before you buy this one.good luck...and keep in mind that nobody cares for your health except YOU.....

This book is so informative about hormone balance, bioidentical hormones and a diet. It is written in an easy to read style. Dr. Berkson speaks to the reader and gives the reader valuable information.

What an amazing woman Dr. Berkson is. She's the absolute tops in her field and she takes a complex subject like hormones and makes it not only easily understandable, but funny.

Clear content. I did not know much before about hormone replacement therapy and bio-identical hormones. After reading this book, I feel better prepared to discuss the issue with my doctor. Great effort has been made to make the information accessible even to people without good knowledge of the body chemistry. Highly recommend.

I am constantly on the lookout for new studies and information on women's health issues. This book is well researched and contains important information that I have not found elsewhere. I have sent the Amazon link to all my women friends and recommended that they buy it.
