Dr. Erika's Hormone Solution for Your Daughter offers the true-life stories of real teens coping with the heartbreaking physical and emotional consequences of obesity.Dr. Schwartz explains that the trigger for budding weight problems in teens can often be traced to the beginning of puberty, when their bodies are overloaded with hormones that impact mood, energy, motivation, and weight gain.Teens feel condemned to exist in their new, fuller figures, and cannot make the hormonal correlation between their emotional havoc and their expanding bodies. In a revolutionary step-by-step, dose-by-dose plan, Dr. Schwartz reveals how natural hormones and supplements can be used to help achieve optimal balance of a teen's raging hormones for improved mood, energy level, self-confidence, and weight loss.
