It's true! I have the answer to your age old question. I wasn't sure if you were looking for one couple in Florida or both a couple and an explanation. I have your answer to the old truth about why women are so much colder than men and what you can actually do to balance the temperature variation of the sexes.
We all know the idea of Yin and Yang. It has become so popular we hear it in commercials and in common language banter and conversations.
I will break it down so it actually makes sense.
Yin represents everything that is female: Cold, Soft, Quiet, Demur, Supple, Receiving
Yang represents everything that is male: Hot, Hard, Loud, Aggressive, Firm, Penetrating
We all have some Yin (our Mother's DNA) in us and we all have some Yang (our Father's DNA) in us. Women who are too cold have too much Yin or too many female qualities in their body and must be warmed to have balance ( a simple tip: Drink Ginger and Cinnamon Tea it's warming) . Men who are too hot have too much Yang or too many male qualities in their body and must be cooled down ( A simple Tip Drink Mint Tea it's cooling).
Acupuncture and individualized herbal medicine can restore balance in your body and harmony in your thermostat.

Peri-Menopause: It's the Pits!
During Peri-menopause our hormones take a dramatic dive resulting in many of the same frustrations we thought we left behind in our teens: acne, irritability and even under arm odor.
A simple natural remedy: Black Tea Bags. Simply brew a cup of tea that has black tea leaves (think English Breakfast) and apply the tea bags to the underarms. Be sure to layer with towels as you lie in bed with tea bags under your arms as they do stain).
Allow the tea to penetrate the entire armpit for 10 minutes.
The tannins kill bad smelling bacteria that arises for excessive sweating during hot flashes.
Additional help comes from internally cleansing the liver which contributes to all of the emotional and frustrating changes during menopause. A skilled herbalist can prescribe a specific herbal prescription to aid in reducing body odor. Be sure to also include lots of dark, leafy greens including kale and seaweed in your diet during this transition. They cleanse the liver and reduce hormonal fluctuations and mood swings.
