A Food for Life Class: Hormones impact us all but at certain stages of life, they contribute to specific conditions, like menopause. In this class that draws from the popular book, Your Body in Balance: The New Science of Food, Hormones, and Health by Neal Barnard, MD, FACC, you'll learn how specific dietary changes work to bring hormone levels into balance.
