technical, but useful, 2008-03-31
i found this book to be very benificial in learning about the menopause and how it really affects us in a biological way. I wasnt looking for a 'diet' book and this fitted the bill very well. It was hard reading sometimes and i had to re read certain parts before it stuck. I use it often and would recomend it to someone who wants to understand the menopause ina deeper way yo to beat it.

The Menopause Diet, 2007-10-02
Don't waste your time on this one. What a HUGE downer to read. It seems that the author has bigger issues than menopause, like chronic negativity. From cover to cover this book is filled with do not eat this, do not buy that, if you eat this you may die of that! Then to add insult to injury, she continues with her personal opinions of different exercise types that can cause injury. Give me a break, I, for one, am not motivated by the SCARED SKINNY tactics of this book. And finally, she actually promotes the use of hormone therapy which in my own physician's opinion may be risky. ENOUGH ALREADY... Back to portion control, good choices, exercise and not living in fear. This book went into the trash, it is not even good enough to recycle...

This book shoots straight from the hip, 2004-05-16
This book is very informative. There is a lot of medical infomation but that's what I was looking for.Dr. Gillespie is very straight forward so if you don't want to hear the truth about how you body is changing then this isn't the book for you.
Her diet has stopped my blood sugar drops and I've lost a couple of pounds in a week.
The book is a slow read because it's not written to be entertaining but give you the information you need to prevent or get rid or that "menopot."

Atkins diet in sheeps clothing, 2003-08-29
I found this book very disappointing. I already own Dr. Atkins book and there isn't really any difference in the actual diet. The information on hormone therapy was interesting, but most of the information regarding recommended brands and doses of estrogen was available on the authors web site. If, like me, you have allergies to dairy products, eggs, or nuts, the companion book, "Mini-Meal Cookbook", is a waste of money.
