Knowledge is the key to empowerment, and with a growing number of my subscribers embracing "Her Second Spring," the dietary menopause supplement that's a part of the Fabulous Menopause Kit, I'm eager to kick off a series of informative insights about its individual ingredients. This series will shed light on the "how" and "why" behind its benefits.
Our journey begins with BLACK COHOSH (Actaea Racemosa), a well-established natural remedy that has gained recognition among women seeking a holistic approach to managing their menopause symptoms. Join me in exploring the remarkable potential of this trusted ingredient. 💫🌿
BLACK COHOSH is a plant native to North America, specifically the eastern United States and Canada. It has a long history of use in traditional Native American medicine for a variety of conditions, including menstrual cramps and menopause symptoms.
The use of black cohosh for menopause symptoms dates to the 19th century, when it was commonly used by European settlers in North America. It gained popularity as an alternative to hormone replacement therapy (HRT) in the late 20th century, as concerns about the safety of HRT grew.
Black Cohosh binds to estrogen receptors, where it selectively represses the elevation of LH (Luteinizing Hormone) that occurs at menopause. It also works by affecting the neurotransmitters dopamine and serotonin.

BENEFITS OF BLACK COHOSH DURING PERIMENOPAUSE AND MENOPAUSE*
|
- Alleviates mood swings, irritability, and anxiety.
- Alleviates PMS syndromes.
- Improves sleep quality and reduces insomnia.
- Reduces vaginal dryness.
- Reduces hot flashes and night sweats.
- Alleviates heart palpitations
- Helps with tinnitus and vertigo.

Note: Black cohosh can interact with medicines for high blood pressure and may result in excessively low blood pressure in some women.
* Consult with a healthcare professional before consuming Black Cohosh supplements.

5 MAKE UP MISTAKES ON MATURE SKIN OVER 50

Personally, I've never been a fan of excessive makeup and cosmetics. However, I must acknowledge that the basics we once relied on don't always produce the same results as they used to. That's where Schellea from Fabulous 50's comes to the rescue. Not only is she a dedicated advocate for a healthy lifestyle, exercise, and midlife nutrition, but she also generously shares a wealth of invaluable beauty tips through her YouTube tutorials. Take a moment to explore her tutorial on achieving captivating and beautiful eyes! 🌟😊

With flu season in full swing, it's crucial to bolster our immune systems. During my time in Bali, I adopted a daily ritual of enjoying "Jamu" – a powerful elixir crafted from turmeric, ginger, lime juice, and honey. This immunity-boosting concoction kept me in fantastic health and top form.
It also has many benefits for women’s health, such as:
|
- Reduce PMS by improving brain chemistry.
- Inhibiting endometriosis.
- Reduce inflammation in women with PCOS (Polycystic ovary syndrome).
- Relieve symptoms of menopause such as mood swings and weight gain.
- Fight HPV-related and non-related cervical cancers.
- Reduce the risk & spread of breast cancer.

When Strong Women Speak, Strong Women Listen", by Adriana Fuentes Diaz, is a collection of 800+ quotes that truly resonate with me. These quotes come from remarkable women who've made a significant impact in various fields, shaping society, education, business, politics, and entrepreneurship for generations to come. The wisdom and guidance found within these pages cover essential aspects of life, such as love, friendship, success, gratitude, and more.
As Adriana, I believe that it's now more critical than ever for women to unite, learn from each other, and offer support and encouragement - especially in midlife! The words within this book are here to inspire and empower you on your unique journey and, I hope, will encourage you to support and uplift other women as well.

While I generally avoid taking sides in political matters, I strongly believe that we have a responsibility to our society, our children, and our grandchildren to raise awareness about issues we find unacceptable. As women in midlife, we've amassed valuable life experiences and wisdom, enabling us not only to form our own opinions but also compelling us to speak out when we see injustices.
That's why this week, I'd like to share an Instagram post from my friend Bea, who has provided valuable insights on the actions each of us can take to contribute to resolving the current situation in Gaza.
Together, we can make a difference!
