Menopause Summit ’09: A "Flashy" Response to Mid-Life Transition

October 2 Tuck Talk radio show will feature organizers of event geared toward women in mid-life transition

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE / PRURGENT

Menopause can be responsible for all kinds of physical, mental and emotional fluctuations. Most of us have heard about the mood swings, hot flashes and loss of sex drive associated with "The Change," but other less-known symptoms--fatigue, sleep loss, weight gain, joint pain, even allergies and increased breast cancer risk--can arise too, making menopause a major influence on all aspects of a woman’s health. About 70% of women report having experienced menopause symptoms.

Studies suggest that some supplements, hormones, medicines, and diet can greatly reduce the effects of menopause--but some of these therapies bring risks with them. Educating herself about the causes, signs and treatments can help a woman more easily transition through mid-life while maintaining or improving her overall health.

To that end, the Menopause Summit ’09 is bringing together the brightest, most entertaining experts on perimenopause, menopause, middle-age and positive life transition. Guest experts will cover topics ranging from hormones to emotional well-being. Confirmed Summit guests include Tuck Self (host of the Tuck Talk radio show), medical intuitive Caroline Sutherland and Planet SARK founder Susan Ariel Rainbow Kennedy.

The creators of the Menopause Summit, Lela Bryan and Carole Cross, will join Tuck Talk Monday, November 2 to discuss this hot event. Expect call-ins from a few of the featured speakers; listeners are encouraged to call in at 866-472-5788 to ask menopause-related questions.
