About This Issue

Welcome to this special Christmas edition of Natural News for Women.

At the clinic we get thousands of emails with requests for information and advice and I thought this would be a good way to keep you up to date with what is happening in the world of nutrition.

Natural News is for you, to send in your questions, tell me what you want help with, what articles you found most useful and what has worked for you. Your feedback is valuable as it helps other women who may have a similar health concern to know that they are not alone and to hear that there are answers to their problems.

Each issue will have a main feature, questions and answers, a case study showing the power of nutrition, a Monthly Meal Idea, In The News and Quick Tips. We’re also working on a Readers’ Tips section, Reader Reviews and much more.

Kind regards

Dr Marilyn Glenville PhD
