Men are from Mars, women are from Venus- this familiar saying suggests
that like many other aspects of our being, the health needs of men
and the health needs of women vary considerably. Our gender determines
the way in which we function, and from this we are able to identify
our different nutritional needs and risk of gender specific ilness.
Womens health is a fascinating interplay of internal and external
influences, including the role of the reproductive hormones, and
their powerful effects on a womans physical and emotional wellbeing.
