Hangovers and parties

If you are feeling hungover after a party, it may not just be because of excess alcohol or late nights. Although it could be (hehehe).

Here’s another plausible excuse (honestly). According to food intolerance specialists YorkTest Laboratories, as the party season approaches there is an increase in the number of patients suffering from the symptoms of food intolerance – such as bloating, bad headaches, “feeling foggy”, stomach troubles and low energy.

Lisa Olson starts the book by telling her infertility story which led her to start her own research, and how she finally conceived – despite her problems and despite being what is termed in the UK here as an “elderly prima-gravida”.

Pregnancy Miracle the result of that research and is a comprehensive, no-fluff, plan (275 pages) which includes:
