A well known and seasoned Olympic athlete, Dara Torres won a total of 12 medals in swimming for the United States, most recently winning 3 Silver Medals in Beijing. Her accomplishments in their own right deserve admiration, but the fact that she is 41 years old and competing against women half her age is incredibly impressive. Peri-menopausal and menopausal women struggling with hormone imbalances and stubborn weight gain can obtain encouragement by the success of Dara Torres.

To further assist women in accomplishing their weight loss goals, Dr. Patricia Beckstead announces a new online resource, Freedom from Menopause, found at BestWomenSupplements.com. Empowering information, natural weight loss products, bio-identical (natural) hormones, dietary supplements and more are available to support women of any age who seek long-term success, no matter what kind of diet they choose to follow. Dr. Beckstead explains that weight loss can be difficult especially for women who suffer from hormonal imbalances such as seen in Pre-menstrual Syndrome (PMS), peri-menopause, and Menopause.

In one of Dr. Beckstead’s website articles, “Outsmarting the Menopause Scale,” she reviews the top weight loss strategies and obstacles women face on the road to success. She relates the information for dieters, coupled with natural weight loss supplements such as Citrimax Complex, HGH Spray, Soy Spirulina Protein Powder meal replacement, and Progesterone Cream, to provide empowerment.

“With respect for traditional medicine, the time has come to broaden our horizons. Our mission is to advance women into a position of knowledge, confidence and power, allowing them to make the best weight loss and healthcare decisions,” says Dr. Beckstead.

In addition to questions about the stubborn weight they gain in the female fat zones, women want to know what supplements help with hot flashes, mood swings, and other symptoms of hormonal imbalance, according to Dr. Beckstead.

“Menopausal women have an especially difficult time achieving or maintaining desired weight loss due to hormonal imbalance. The good news is that natural help with menopause, such as progesterone cream, can help them lose those unwanted pounds easily.”

The hormone balancing and natural weight loss products are physician-recommended and supported by the latest research. BestWomenSupplements.com also addresses PMS, obesity, Fibromyalgia and men’s health issues.

Dr. Patricia Beckstead explains, “If you suffer with symptoms, are overweight, or simply want to become healthier, choosing to begin a healthy lifestyle regimen is an important decision. At every step of your journey, we will be there to provide you with natural weight loss products and more that enhance the quality of your life. In fact, using our holistic products to further your hard work and dedication can help you reach your goals in a much more safe and effective manner.”

This approach seems much safer than hormonal replacement therapy for women afflicted by the effects of menopause, although the researchers admit that there doesn’t seem to be a significant relationship between exercise and the elimination of hot flashes.

There is, however, a substantial reduction in the levels of depression, anxiety and stress among women who are physically active.  Women who do not engage in regular physical activity are much more likely to suffer from these negative symptoms.

The study is significant for several reasons.  While exercise does not appear to impact some of temporary symptoms, such as hot flashes, it has a much more substantial effect on many of the long-term ailments that are associated with menopause.

The surprising aspect of the study was that the level of physical activity necessary to decrease the symptoms of menopause was minimal.  Just walking a short distance as a part of a daily routine, for example, was enough to have a positive impact.

It was interesting to note that, as a group, black women tend to suffer more from menopausal symptoms than whites and that moderate exercise seems to have a more significant impact for this demographic as well. 

One reason for hot flashes in women is a fluctuation of hormone levels which affect the brain’s center controlling body temperature.

Other research indicated that while exercise does not appear to reduce the number of hot flashes that menopausal women experience, those who are physically active tend to "care less about having them."  

This finding supports the psychological, as well as physical, benefits that exercise offers.  The reduced levels of estrogen that accompanies menopause does lead to an increase of stress, anxiety and depression.  The mental benefits of physical activity is significant in terms of reducing the intensity of these symptoms.
