The Hormone Shift

Balance Your Body and Thrive Through Midlife and Menopause

De: Tasneem Bhatia MD, Gwyneth Paltrow

Narrado por: Soneela Nankani, Tasneem Bhatia MD

The goop hormone authority offers an empowering new approach to taking charge of hormone shifts through every stage of life—especially menopause.

When hormonal highs, lows, twists, and turns feel overwhelming, Dr. Tasneem Bhatia can offer a road map—and a whole new perspective. As an MD with an East-meets-West approach to women’s health, Dr. Tasneem (known as Dr. Taz) combines the wisdom of Eastern modalities like Ayurveda and traditional Chinese medicine with modern medical treatments for whole body wellness.

To Dr. Taz, menopause is not an “ending”; a woman’s entire life is a spectrum of ever-shifting hormones, and menopause is just one point along that spectrum. And hormone levels are a fluid continuum that you have a lot of control over: through your diet, how you sleep, how you manage stress, and more.

In The Hormone Shift, Dr. Taz breaks down exactly what is happening behind the scenes in a woman’s body throughout her life and how almost every aspect of health is connected to hormones—from metabolism to mental health. She explains how to prepare for whatever is coming next, and offers a customizable Thirty-Day Hormone Reset plan that uses a combination of Eastern and Western healing modalities to keep the body in balance and deliver a targeted strategy for minimizing unwanted symptoms at every stage.

* This audiobook edition includes a downloadable PDF with checklists, charts, illustrations, and an appendix from the book.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“I’m so grateful that Dr. Taz has given us the gift of this book. It encompasses the kind of conversation so many of us have been eager and curious to have around hormones and aging and vitality. It outlines the information about our bodies that all women should have access to so we can move through hormonal changes with more ease—and look forward to what’s to come.” —Gwyneth Paltrow, founder and CEO of goop

“The Hormone Shift shows that menopause does not have to be something women approach with dread. It’s a foundational guide to understanding your body and hormones, the small tweaks that can make a big difference with symptoms, and the ways that we are able to step into our power during this chapter of our lives.” —Sara Gottfried, MD, New York Times bestselling author of The Hormone Cure

“Dr. Taz has rewritten the book (literally!) on the traditional approach to hormonal health. She has long been at the forefront of merging Eastern and Western medicine techniques, and now her unique approach to women’s health is available to the masses. This game-changing guide to resetting hormones will help you thrive in your thirties, forties, fifties, and beyond!” —Sara Blakely, inventor and founder of Spanx

A better read than a listen

Not surprisingly a book like this is better on paper where one can highlight and flip back to pages. Listening made it feel like there is a lot of extra blah blah, which may not happen with a hardcopy. 

Better to buy the book than listen

There are loooots of charts and lists that make listening to it odd. Also, based on your stage in life (age) you likely want to skip to those sections and make notes. I recommend buying this one instead of listening.

Excellent hormonal guidance!

Finally a book that actually discusses certain symptoms related to various hormonal deficiencies. Tons of information and great insight. Thank you so much 

A must read for every female

Every female should invest in this book. It aids in the learning of yourself and what you can go through in all the stages of hormone shift. Advocate for yourself and be encouraged by Dr Tas, that there are ones that care.

So excited to see the changes!

I listened to the book all weekend and have learned so much! I love the East- West approach. I am excited to start my reset this week!

I'm not crazy only undisciplined

This is information doctors don't know about or don't tell women for answers and change.

Better as a physical book

The ideas in this book are good but it is not well suited to be an audio book. Too many lists, quizzes and recipes. I would have gotten more out of the book if I had read it and had access to refer back to these types of items more efficiently. I think audiobooks should move these items to an appendix and provide them for easy retrieval in a PDF.

Mind blowing info

I’ve heard of how some Chinese medicine is better suited with trying to treat our illnesses. I loved how this merged medical science I am aware of as well as Chinese medicines. I listened to this as an audiobook. There is an accompanying PDF. I am going to buy the book so I can reference it better. Highly recommend if you want to see if you can ever feel better. I’m tired of feeling tired and having headaches. Looking forward to thriving!

The breakdown of the different hormone fluctuations 

I was very intrigued on learning about all the hormonal shifts at different ages and stages of our lives. Some of the material was a little over my head and overwhelming but I think once you got to the hormone reset part it's definitely something to learn from, and the steps seem easy enough to get started.

detail and accurate info

might be to detailed for some (and it's not a textbook, but provides leads for those seeking a refresher
