As promised, I talked about delivery systems for natural hormone replacement therapy. Some things are best as topical creams, some are OK as pills, some are good as sublingual oils, some should go right on the spot they’re needed!

It’s time for SPRING! This week I reminded people that if they are sneezing, there IS tree pollen in the air, and they might want to break out the neti pots and xylitol nasal spray.
