Would you please advice me. I have terrible breast tenderness and a huge appetite. I am 51 and I have erratic periods and can’t sleep very well.

You may find a kelp tablet and a liver cleansing remedy can help with the breast tenderness, dehydration can also be a contributor factor so make sure that you are drinking plenty of plain water every day.

Some women do notice that hormonal change can trigger the appetite, this can often be due to high levels of carbs in the diet causing a yo-yo effect on the blood sugar levels.

You may find cutting your carb intake right down and increasing protein and veg helpful. Have a read of the Low GL Diet or the Paleo Diet.

Remember to get any breast changes checked out by your doctor as well.
