Glad to see there is a girls only forum, but I have a feeling some of the guys will be checking out what us gals have to say.  Just wanted to say hello and mention something I have found that works great to stop hot flashes in their tracks (if you're old enough to have them).  A friend of mine who is a nutritionist introduced me to Mila by Lifemax.  I had never heard of it before a month ago, but I add it to my juice in the morning, and hot flashes have gone bye-bye.  I'm also giving it to my kids to help them stay focused.  Omega 3s, antioxidants and lots of fiber.  Great stuff!
