    Stopping HRT for Ovarian Stem Cell Therapy

    I wouldn't do any trial form doctors in Egypt. I'm late to the party for menopause and its not a joke with the hot flashing, but the controversy on HRT - bio identical or lab derived is no way settled and the confluence of other factors are keeping me from it...stem cells to twart nature's...

    Pure Barre

    I love our Pure barre folks here, but the workouts can really take a toll on the hip/back even with good form. I find it better than Physique 57 which moves to fast to get any muscle effect I found.

    Another vote for Arbonne, have made pumpkin shakes, and mix a scoop of vanilla/chocolate with left over coffee from the morning, some stevia and almond milk and tastes like a yogurt shake.
