Welcome to Litsy!

I cannot recommend this book enough. While there are lots of books about the healing properties of herbs, this one stands out above the rest. Not only is the information within backed up with lists of scientific journals, but the author also gives you reasons why the supplements work, what they shift in the body in order to treat imbalances. The author gives possible side effects, so you can make an educated choice. They also teach you ⬇️

Much of this was stuff I already knew but, it was a good refresher & fount of information nonetheless. Recommended📚🤓

A good compilation of solid advice, most of which I knew, but also a look inside the pressures put on us by Big Food. I was a little surprised that she didn‘t suggest buying directly from farmers, which is how I deal with it. But it‘s aimed at a larger audience I suppose that may not have access to farmers markets and CSAs.

I guarantee most women have been dissatisfied when visiting the doctor at least once. This book is an in-depth look at the history of medicine for females and is nothing short of eye-opening. As women, ailments are often written off as being hormone-related or “normal”, when it‘s not “normal” to feel uncomfortable, in pain, sick or worse. Women should read it. Men should read it. And the patriarchy should read it. Full stop.

Tons of interesting info. Self-help books are t my fave, so it was a bit too textbook-y for me. But I got some great takeaways from it.

So I had to post my psychology books for @catiewithac … but there are so many great reads here and it keeps growing as I have several on my tbr shelf still 🙌🏽📚 hope you can see a few you‘ve read 😊… the pic on the bottom right are all college books from getting my degrees

Comen, a breast cancer specialist, tells the history of women‘s treatment in medicine and how the study of our different needs was often overlooked and breakthroughs were often in short supply. She takes a body system approach working through integumentary, musculoskeletal, reproductive, and more. The audio is fantastic!

I've read this one with a pen in my hand. Extremely useful and insightful for women of all ages, but equally for men! Raising awareness about menopause symptoms and treatments helps women feel less lonely and misunderstood during this new stage, and regain their normal life.

This is an incredible read about why ultra-processed food is so damaging to our health and society at large. Amazing research to back up the author's claims. Highly recommend if you're interested in learning more about health.
