During pre-menopause & shortly after entering menopause, I started losing my hair. When I combed it, there wasn’t much in the comb. When I checked my pillow, there was nothing there either.
Bit by bit my hair got shorter and thinner. Prior to menopause, my hair was shoulder-length, full, shiny, and healthy-looking. After menopause, my hair became thin, short, dull, dry, and unhealthy. I eat very well with a very balanced diet, drink plenty of water. I’m stress-free, sleep very well at night. A holistic lifestyle is my lifestyle. Plenty of sunlight, adequate exercise. I feel great overall but my hair just wouldn’t grow and looked pretty dull. A woman’s hair is her pride & joy. All my life I never paid much attention to my hair. I’d use the cheapest $.99c shampoo & conditioner. Never deep conditioner or hot oil treatments like many other black women. I accepted my menopause demise without much fanfare. Recently, I was feeling low on energy. My eyes looked tired especially in the evenings and at night. Feeling progressively foggy-brained, I started reading to see what might have led to this gradual change in my energy level, mental clarity & my eyes. Like I mentioned before, I eat very well and have a very healthy lifestyle. About 7 months ago, after publishing my new Health and Wellness book EAT SLEEP MEDITATE A NURSE’S GUIDE TO HEALTH I started a Facebook Health support group. A few of my group members regularly posted pictures of their morning celery green juice. Something told me to inquire to see what results they’ve had with celery juice. Two of the ladies reported that since they’ve been celery juicing, they’d had better mental clarity, were able to quit drinking coffee, and had experienced increased energy. With this report, I immediately decided to try it. Marva Riley, author of EAT SLEEP MEDITATE. A NURSE’S GUIDE TO HEALTH |
