Feature Article: February 2019 – Speaker Releases New Book, “The Hormone Fix”

By Jeff Morris

As women approach menopause, many start to experience the physical and emotional indignities of hormonal fluctuation: metabolic stall and weight gain, hot flashes and night sweats, insomnia, memory loss or brain fog, irritability, low libido, and painful sex.

Dr. Anna Cabeca has seen that, all too often, doctors tell women that these discomforts are to be expected and that they will have to wait them out during “the change.” But through research and experience with thousands of her patients, Dr. Cabeca can show that there is a fast-acting and non-pharmaceutical way to dramatically and permanently alleviate these symptoms. She does so in her new book, The Hormone Fix.

Anna Cabeca, D.O., FACOG is triple board-certified and a fellow of gynecology and obstetrics, integrative medicine, and anti-aging and regenerative medicine. She has special certification in functional medicine, sexual health, and bioidentical hormone replacement therapy. She is known for her work using natural alternatives for successful menopause as well as her expertise in age management medicine. She is the creator of the highly acclaimed virtual transformation programs Women’s Restorative Health, Sexual CPR®, Magic Menopause; she offers Keto-Alkaline® nutrition plans to online subscribers; and she developed the alkaline superfoods drink Mighty Maca® Plus. She has been interviewed by all major television networks, and has been featured in InStyle and The Huffington Post. Dr. Cabeca has 100,000 email subscribers, 26,000 social media followers and often hosts popular webinars (there were 10,000 registrants for a recent one on menopause). In 2017, she was the recipient of the Alan P. Mintz, M.D. Award for Clinical Excellence in Age Management Medicine, presented by AMMG.

Dr. Cabeca has also been a regular speaker at AMMG conferences for over ten years, and this year is no exception. In April, she will be presenting “Basic Hormone Replacement/Replenishment for Women” as part of the Introduction to Core Issues in Age Management Medicine pre-conference track. In addition, she is presenting “Women’s Sexual Health: Cutting Edge Issues” as part of the pre-conference track in Spanish, and again in English during the General Session.

The Hormone Fix introduces Dr Cabeca’s unique Keto-Green protocol, a plan that pairs the hallmarks of ketogenic (low-carb/high fat) eating with diet and lifestyle changes that bring the body’s cellular pH to a healthy alkaline level. The proven result: balanced cortisol and reduced output of insulin, the hormones most responsible for belly fat and weight gain, plus an increase in oxytocin, the “love and happiness” hormone. The Hormone Fix offers an easy-to-follow program for women, whether they are perimenopausal, menopausal, or postmenopausal, including:

• A 10-day quick-start detox diet to jump-start weight loss and reduce symptoms immediately
• Daily meal plans and weekly shopping lists to take the guesswork out of a month’s worth of Keto-Green eating
• 65 delicious and easy-to-make recipes for breakfast, lunch, dinner, smoothies, and soups
• Detailed information on vitamin and mineral supplementation that optimizes hormone balance and gut health
• Simple self-assessments and recommended optional lab testing for a better understanding of your hormonal status
• Tested and trusted stress-reduction and oxytocin-amplifying advice and techniques

The book’s foreword is by JJ Virgin, a well-known triple-board certified women’s health expert and author who has also spoken at AMMG conferences. “I’ve known Dr. Anna Cabeca for fifteen years,” she says. “I think of her as a true innovator, as well as a powerful crusader for women’s health.” She goes on, “One of my favorite things about Anna is how willing she is to challenge the status quo. Forget just thinking outside the box—this woman will create a door and escort you out of that box! Then she’ll lead you to wide-open spaces where there are practical answers to the health issues that affect your life.”

The Hormone Fix has already received a considerable amount of advance praise. “The Hormone Fix is a treasure trove of accurate and user-friendly information that all women who are suffering during menopause need to know and apply,” said Christiane Northrup, M.D., author of The Wisdom of Menopause. “Hormone balance is within reach, and this is the definitive guide for reaching that goal,” said David Perlmutter, M.D., author of Grain Brain.

The Hormone Fix is a book for women approaching or in menopause. It is a revolutionary diet and holistic lifestyle program for easier weight loss, better sleep, diminished hot flashes, a clearer head, and a rejuvenated sex drive. With The Hormone Fix, says Dr. Cabeca, women can expect to trim down, tap into new and unexpected energy levels, enhance intimacy, and completely revitalize their lives.

The Hormone Fix: Burn Fat Naturally, Boost Energy, Sleep Better, and Stop Hot Flashes, the Keto-Green Way will be released on February 26.
