Don't Sweat It: Stop Your Hot Flashes and Night Sweats
Is it hot in here, or is it just me?

Many women associate hot flashes with low estrogen, but that is most often not the case. 

It may also surprise you that men have hot flashes as well.

It's true: both estrogen and testosterone protect from frequent hot flashes and night sweats. But many other external factors and ingested substances can cause the skin vessels to rapidly dilate and release heat.

Special guest, Lorna Vanderhaeghe, MS, discusses what other conditions and circumstances can cause hot flashes and night sweats besides menopause.

She also shares some amazing natural remedies and actions to take to for relief.
