The Ageless Woman: Natural Health And Beauty After Forty With Maharishi Ayurveda Paperback – May 1, 2004

This is an excellent, useful book for any woman. It seemlessly weaves together knowledge of western science and ayurveda to support women in maintaining health and beauty at any chronological age. Easy lifestyle, diet, and self care routines go a long way toward maintaining or restoring health and beauty at any age. Anyone can use the parts of this that seem right for them along with whatever else they choose. A basic understanding of Ayurveda or yoga is helpful but not essential.

This is a good book and the information on the Ayurvedic part is accurate; however the research related to modern medicine is outdated. There is a new version of this book that has come out with the same ayurvedic information and updated information in regard to modern medicine. It costs less than this book.

I love Dr. Nancy's book 'The Ageless Woman'. This book is an essential gem for every woman, her caring partner and family. Dr. Nancy easily and gently guides us to natural balance and well being..... supported by her careful research. 'The Ageless Woman' has benefited my well being, health and happiness. It has deepened my understanding of my total physiology, emotional, physical and spiritual,...... and my ability to be an 'Ageless Woman.'I am gifting this book to many friends.Jenica K WaymenVictoria , Canada

I sell these and my wife loved it and got a lots of good tips for staying young and youthful looking. We do a lotof things to hasten the aging process and this book lays out many practical tips to stop and reverse aging. The author has a depth of knowledge you just don't find often.

As I just turned 50 I am looking for information regarding menopause and all the phases a woman around my age goes through. This book started with a lot of information about Ayurveda which I am not really interested in. The rest of the content of the book is good with general information about being healthy and keeping life simple and uncomplicated.

Love the book as it explains about the ayurvedic style of healing the body. I tried out the spice water and it work wonders on my constipation.

It seems like an interesting enough book with good information. However, much of the value of the book relies on charts used to assess ones own personal situation. In my Kindle version, the charts don't come through at all. So the great value of the book is entirely lost for me.If this is a technical glitch, please repair or let me know how I can repair on my own here.

Am I reading the same book as every one else? I hate to give it a 2 star review, but I was disappointed with the 'style' of information in this book; unless you are an experienced, practicing yogi versed in ayurveda, most of the info in this book may go over your head. I do yoga, and I love the ayurveda approach to 'medicine', but this was a bit over the top for me. I was expecting a more common sense approach. I wish some of the reviewers had mentioned this, because I would have thought twice before making this purchase.
