SUMMARY:Vitamins\, supplements\, and minerals for women 40+
DESCRIPTION:Vitamins\, supplements\, and minerals are crucial for good health\, especially for women 40 and older. The human body requires more than 45 vitamins and minerals to maintain good health. The only vitamin that our body can make is vitamin D\, all others must be ingested. Subtle deficiencies in several vitamins have been associated with chronic diseases like atherosclerosis\, cancer\, and osteoporosis. \nBut does this mean you should take vitamins to prevent disease? \nThe vast number of advertisements and claims made by manufacturers and distributors of vitamins\, supplements\, and minerals certainly want to make you believe that you should. But you should take vitamins\, supplements\, and minerals with caution because some may cause harm. \nAnd if too much of a good thing is bad for you\, how much should you take? \nIn this workshop you will learn: \n\nWhat vitamins are essential for good health\nVitamins and supplements that are recommended for women 40+\nHow much you should take – daily recommended dietary intake\nThe benefits and risks of taking vitamins and supplements\n\n“Vitamins\, supplements\, and minerals for women 40+” is an online event for WHIM (Women’s Health In Midlife) Network 2020 members only . To attend you’ll need a computer or smart device and an internet connection. Post registration\, few days prior to the event\, I will email you a link to join the webinar online. Five (5) minutes before the event just click on the link and you’ll join us. \nAre you… \n\nOver 40?\nCommitted to your health and wellbeing?\nInterested in learning more about your body and mind?\nReady to put yourself at the top of the list and look after yourself?\nLonging to pursue happiness\, mindfulness\, fulfilment\, connection\, and purpose in midlife?\nWilling to laugh at yourself a little\, and with other women going through similar journeys?\nUp to celebrate\, encourage\, and elevate yourself and others?\n\nBeing a healthcare professional I felt compelled to start a group for women willing to care for their own health and well-being. Drawing on my expertise and many years of experience in women’s health in general—and menopause in particular—I started the WHIM (Women’s Health In Midlife) Network. \nIf you are not a 2020 member of the  WHIM (Women’s Health In Midlife) Network and would like to attend this workshop\, become a member of the WHIM Network here and then register for this event here.

SUMMARY:WHIM Network Book Club - The Slow Moon Climbs
DESCRIPTION:Announcing the first-ever meeting of the WHIM (Women’s Health In Midlife) Network Book Club!  This event is free for WHIM Network members\, and everyone is welcome. Our book is right on topic:  The Slow Moon Climbs: The Science\, History\, and Meaning of Menopause\, by Susan Mattern. \nThe Slow Moon Climbs \nHere’s what the publishers say about The Slow Moon Climbs: \nThe first comprehensive look at menopause from prehistory to today \nAre the ways we look at menopause all wrong? Historian Susan Mattern says yes\, and The Slow Moon Climbs reveals just how wrong we have been. Taking readers from the rainforests of Paraguay to the streets of Tokyo\, Mattern draws on historical\, scientific\, and cultural research to reveal how our perceptions of menopause developed from prehistory to today. For most of human history\, people had no word for menopause and did not view it as a medical condition. Rather\, in traditional foraging and agrarian societies\, it was a transition to another important life stage. This book\, then\, introduces new ways of understanding life beyond fertility. \nMattern examines the fascinating “Grandmother Hypothesis”—which argues for the importance of elders in the rearing of future generations—as well as other evolutionary theories that have generated surprising insights about menopause and the place of older people in society. She looks at agricultural communities where households relied on postreproductive women for the family’s survival. And she explores the emergence of menopause as a medical condition in the Western world. It was only around 1700 that people began to see menopause as a dangerous pathological disorder linked to upsetting symptoms that rendered women weak and vulnerable. Mattern argues that menopause was another syndrome\, like hysterical suffocation or melancholia\, that emerged or reemerged in early modern Europe in tandem with the rise of a professional medical class. \nThe Slow Moon Climbs casts menopause\, at last\, in the positive light it deserves—not only as an essential life stage\, but also as a key factor in the history of human flourishing. \nSusan P. Mattern is Distinguished Research Professor of History at the University of Georgia. Her many books include The Prince of Medicine: Galen in the Roman Empire and Rome and the Enemy. She lives on a farm in Winterville\, Georgia. \nThis WHIM (Women’s Health In Midlife) Network Book Club meeting is free for 2020 members of the WHIM (Women’s Health In Midlife) Network. \nBut everyone is welcome!\nThe location is one of my favourite local cafes (or you can join ONLINE): \nBaka Gallery Cafe \n2256 Bloor St. West \nToronto\, Ontario\, M6S 1N6 \nhttps://www.bakacafe.com/ \na short walk west from the Runnymede subway station\, and there are Green P parking lots close by. \nBoth members and non-members register here.  Members\, use your Promotion Code to get your free ticket.  If you are a member and you’ve forgotten your Promotion Code\, or to RSVP\, email me at teresa@menopaused.org. \nIf you would like to become a member of the WHIM Network\, you can learn more and register at https://menopaused.org/whim/. \nI’m really looking forward to the first WHIM (Women’s Health In Midlife) Network Book Club – The Slow Moon Climbs\, and I hope to see you there!
