You Really Are What You Eat
 Whether we age with grace, or fight it every step of the way, the fact is we are aging and it is inevitable. However, how we go through the process is a choice. Going through menopause symptoms is just as inevitable, but how we travel that road is also a choice. We can choose to glide through it like a swan on a lake, or fight it like a bass on a line.
Attitude is Everything
 Menopause is one of those things that every woman will experience in life, provided she lives long enough, no matter what. It's just a fact of life. It's also something that most women don't look forward to.
Women May Be More Vulnerable To The Detriments of Stress
 To most of us, this seems like common sense. We joke with family and colleagues all the time about it. "Come on," we say when a loved one comes home after a stressful day. "You're going to give yourself a heart attack. Relax!" Workers from high stress, bustling environments, like those in Austin, Dallas, and Houston, can probably relate. Our comforting words may serve a greater purpose than simple solace, however - they may amount to life-saving advice.
Is The Way You Are Sleeping Killing You?
 Every one of us has a mysterious double life. For about two thirds of the time we are conscious beings, thinking about the world within and without, and negotiating our ways through the obstacles of life. For the other one third of the time we are nearly lifeless lumps of flesh, unconscious to everything but our own fantasies, as we lie flat in bed asleep. We all know that sleep is important for health. But for an activity that consumes about 8 hours of everyday of life, surprisingly little is thought about the act of sleeping, or the way our culture teaches us to sleep. Sleep behavior, like all human activities, is defined by our culture.
New Theory on the Cause and Prevention of Hot Flashes
Women in Fiji have it easy, at least when it comes to menopause. We were in Fiji to study bra wearing and breast cancer, but took advantage of the opportunity of being with these non-western people to ask about the way local women experienced the symptoms of menopause. Margaret Mead, the famous cultural anthropologist, discovered that the discomforts young western women often associate with the "coming of age" were mostly absent for Samoan women. As medical anthropologists, we wondered if the coming "out of age" was any different for Fijian women than for those in the west who complain of various symptoms, such as hot flashes and profuse sweating.
