HORMONE REPLACEMENT THERAPY for Women estrogen
What Causes Menopause

What Causes Menopause?

The most common reason for menopause is the natural decline in a female's reproductive hormones. However, menopause can also result from the following situations:

Oophorectomy: This surgery, which removes a woman's ovaries, causes immediate menopause. Symptoms and signs of menopause in this situation can be severe, as the hormonal changes happen abruptly.

Chemotherapy: Cancer treatments like chemotherapy can induce menopause quickly, causing symptoms to appear shortly after or even during treatment.

Ovarian Insufficiency: Also called premature ovarian failure, this condition is essentially premature menopause. It happens when a woman's ovaries quit functioning before the age of 40 and can stem from genetic factors and disease. Only 1% of women suffer from premature menopause, but HRT can help protect the heart, brain, and bones.

Depression

Depression

If you're a woman going through menopause and find that you have become increasingly depressed, you're not alone. It's estimated that 15% of women experience depression to some degree while going through menopause. What many women don't know is that depression can start during perimenopause, or the years leading up to menopause.

Depression can be hard to diagnose, especially during perimenopause and menopause. However, if you notice the following signs, it might be time to speak with a physician:

  • Mood Swings
  • Inappropriate Guilt
  • Chronic Fatigue
  • Too Much or Too Little Sleep
  • Lack of Interest in Life
  • Overwhelming Feelings

Remember, if you're experiencing depression, you're not weak or broken - you're going through a very regular emotional experience. The good news is that with proper treatment from your doctor, depression isn't a death sentence. And with HRT and anti-aging treatment for women, depression could be the catalyst you need to enjoy a new lease on life.

Hot Flashes

Hot Flashes

Hot flashes - they're one of the most well-known symptoms of menopause. Hot flashes are intense, sudden feelings of heat across a woman's upper body. Some last second, while others last minutes, making them incredibly inconvenient and uncomfortable for most women.

Symptoms of hot flashes include:

  • Sudden, Overwhelming Feeling of Heat
  • Anxiety
  • High Heart Rate
  • Headache
  • Nausea
  • Dizziness

Typically, hot flashes are caused by a lack of estrogen. Low estrogen levels negatively affect a woman's hypothalamus, the part of the brain that controls body temperature and appetite. Low estrogen levels cause the hypothalamus to incorrectly assume the body is too hot, dilating blood vessels to increase blood flow. Luckily, most women don't have to settle for the uncomfortable feelings that hot flashes cause. HRT treatments for women often stabilize hormones, lessening the effects of hot flashes and menopause in general.

Mood Swings

Mood Swings

Mood swings are common occurrences for most people - quick shifts from happy to angry and back again, triggered by a specific event. And while many people experience mood swings, they are particularly common for women going through menopause. That's because, during menopause, the female's hormones are often imbalanced. Hormone imbalances and mood swings go hand-in-hand, resulting in frequent mood changes and even symptoms like insomnia.

The rate of production of estrogen, a hormone that fluctuates during menopause, largely determines the rate of production the hormone serotonin, which regulates mood, causing mood swings.

Luckily, HRT and anti-aging treatments in Boonton, NJ for women work wonders for mood swings by regulating hormone levels like estrogen. With normal hormone levels, women around the world are now learning that they don't have to settle for mood swings during menopause.

Weight Gain

Weight Gain

Staying fit and healthy is hard for anyone living in modern America. However, for women with hormone imbalances during perimenopause or menopause, weight gain is even more serious. Luckily, HRT treatments for women coupled with a physician-led diet can help keep weight in check. But which hormones need to be regulated?

  • Estrogen: During menopause, estrogen levels are depleted. As such, the body must search for other sources of estrogen. Because estrogen is stored in fat, your body believes it should increase fat production during menopause. Estrogen also plays a big part in insulin resistance, which can make it even harder to lose weight and keep it off.
  • Progesterone: Progesterone levels are also depleted during menopause. Progesterone depletion causes bloating and water retention, while loss of testosterone limits the body's ability to burn calories.
  • Ongoing Stress: Stress makes our bodies think that food is hard to come by, putting our bodies in "survival mode". When this happens, cortisol production is altered. When cortisol timing changes, the energy in the bloodstream is diverted toward making fat. With chronic stress, this process repeatedly happens, causing extensive weight gain during menopause.
Low Libido

Low Libido

Lowered sexual desire - three words most men and women hate to hear. Unfortunately, for many women in perimenopausal and menopausal states, it's just a reality of life. Thankfully, today, HRT and anti-aging treatments Boonton, NJ can help women maintain a normal, healthy sex drive. But what causes low libido in women, especially as they get older?

The hormones responsible for low libido in women are progesterone, estrogen, and testosterone.

Progesterone production decreases during perimenopause, causing low sex drive in women. Lower progesterone production can also cause chronic fatigue, weight gain, and other symptoms. On the other hand, lower estrogen levels during menopause lead to vaginal dryness and even vaginal atrophy or loss of muscle tension.

Lastly, testosterone plays a role in lowered libido. And while testosterone is often grouped as a male hormone, it contributes to important health and regulatory functionality in women. A woman's testosterone serves to heighten sexual responses and enhances orgasms. When the ovaries are unable to produce sufficient levels of testosterone, it often results in a lowered sex drive.

Vaginal Dryness

Vaginal Dryness

Often uncomfortable and even painful, vaginal dryness is a serious problem for sexually active women. However, like hair loss in males, vaginal dryness is very common - almost 50% of women suffer from it during menopause.

Getting older is just a part of life, but that doesn't mean you have to settle for the side effects. HRT and anti-aging treatments for women correct vaginal dryness by re-balancing estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone. When supplemented with diet and healthy living, your vagina's secretions are normalized, causing discomfort to recede.

Fibroids

Fibroids

Uterine fibroids - they're perhaps the least-known symptom of menopause and hormone imbalances in women. That's because these growths on the uterus are often symptom-free. Unfortunately, these growths can be cancerous, presenting a danger for women as they age.

Many women will have fibroids at some point. Because they're symptomless, they're usually found during routine doctor exams. Some women only get one or two, while others may have large clusters of fibroids. Because fibroids are usually caused by hormone imbalances, hysterectomies have been used as a solution, forcing women into early menopause.

Advances in HRT and anti-aging medicine for women give females a safer, non-surgical option without having to experience menopause early. At Global Life Rejuvenation, our expert physicians will implement a customized HRT program to stabilize your hormones and reduce the risk of cancerous fibroid growth.

Endometriosis

Endometriosis

Endometriosis symptoms are much like the effects of PMS, and include pelvic pain, fatigue, cramping, and bloating. While doctors aren't entirely sure what causes this painful, uncomfortable condition, most agree that hormones - particularly xenoestrogens - play a factor.

Endometriosis symptoms are much like the effects of PMS and include pelvic pain, fatigue, cramping, and bloating. While doctors aren't entirely sure what causes this painful, uncomfortable condition, most agree that hormones - particularly xenoestrogens - play a factor.

Xenoestrogen is a hormone that is very similar to estrogen. Too much xenoestrogen is thought to stimulate endometrial tissue growth. HRT for women helps balance these hormones and, when used with a custom nutrition program, can provide relief for women across the U.S.

What is Sermorelin

What is Sermorelin?

Sermorelin is a synthetic hormone peptide, like GHRH, which triggers the release of growth hormones. When used under the care of a qualified physician, Sermorelin can help you lose weight, increase your energy levels, and help you feel much younger.

Benefits of Sermorelin

Benefits of Sermorelin

Human growth hormone (HGH) therapy has been used for years to treat hormone deficiencies. Unlike HGH, which directly replaces declining human growth hormone levels, Sermorelin addresses the underlying cause of decreased HGH, stimulating the pituitary gland naturally. This approach keeps the mechanisms of growth hormone production active.

  • Benefits of Sermorelin include:
  • Better Immune Function
  • Improved Physical Performance
  • More Growth Hormone Production
  • Less Body Fat
  • Build More Lean Muscle
  • Better Sleep
What is Ipamorelin

What is Ipamorelin?

Ipamorelin helps to release growth hormones in a person's body by mimicking a peptide called ghrelin. Ghrelin is one of three hormones which work together to regulate the growth hormone levels released by the pituitary gland. Because Ipamorelin stimulates the body to produce growth hormone, your body won't stop its natural growth hormone production, which occurs with synthetic HGH.

Ipamorelin causes growth hormone secretion that resembles natural release patterns rather than being constantly elevated from HGH. Because ipamorelin stimulates the natural production of growth hormone, our patients can use this treatment long-term with fewer health risks.

Benefits of Ipamorelin

Benefits of Ipamorelin

One of the biggest benefits of Ipamorelin is that it provides significant short and long-term benefits in age management therapies. Ipamorelin can boost a patient's overall health, wellbeing, and outlook on life.

When there is an increased concentration of growth hormone by the pituitary gland, there are positive benefits to the body. Some benefits include:

  • Powerful Anti-Aging Properties
  • More Muscle Mass
  • Less Unsightly Body Fat
  • Deep, Restful Sleep
  • Increased Athletic Performance
  • More Energy
  • Less Recovery Time for Training Sessions and Injuries
  • Enhanced Overall Wellness and Health
  • No Significant Increase in Cortisol

Morristown Daily Record

As many ready for spring break in Morris County, some schools are preparing for a change in top leadership.

One slot was filled last week when Brad Siegel was named the new superintendent of Mountain Lakes' K-12 school district. A new opening has yet to be filled in Boonton Township, where Christian Angelillo announced earlier this month that he would be leaving to take a similar position at a Jersey Shore district.

In Denville, meanwhile, the Rev. Peter Clarke will step down at the end of the school year after seven years as president of Morris Catholic High School.

Mountain Lakes hires Siegel

Siegel, currently superintendent in the K-8 Upper Saddle River district in Bergen County, will succeed Michael Fetherman, who is retiring on June 30.

Fetherman, who took over in Mountain Lakes in 2020, oversaw an expansion of the high school, coped with the COVID-19 pandemic and is currently involved in negotiations for a new 10-year send-receive contract with Boonton Township, whose students attend the district high school. Mountain Lakes serves about 1,400 students, according to state data.

Siegel, who starts on July 1, was hired after a superintendent search committee was formed late last year to recruit a replacement. Candidate interviews were completed last month.

Prior to his five years in Upper Saddle River, Siegel was the K-12 director of curriculum, instruction and assessment for Bergen County's quad-districts (Allendale, Ho-Ho-Kus, Upper Saddle River, and Northern Highlands Regional.) He holds a doctoral degree from Teachers College at Columbia University through the Arts & Humanities Department.

Boonton Township's Angelillo heads south

In neighboring Boonton Township, another K-8 district, the school board will hold a special meeting Wednesday to discuss the search to replace Angelillo, who is leaving to take the superintendent's job in Ocean City.

“I look forward to becoming a part of the fabric of the Ocean City community and forging lastingrelationships that will help remind us to celebrate our past accomplishments, while working together toachieve future successes that will make us all proud,” Angelillo stated in a statement issued by the Ocean City district.

Angelillo's new job will see him lead a larger district in Ocean City, which includes a high school, intermediate school and primary school serving 1,877 students. Boonton Township, by comparison, teaches about 400 students in one facility, Rockaway Valley School on Valley Road. Angelillo was selected from a pool of more than 50 applicants, the Ocean City district said in announcing his hire.

Earlier this month, Boonton Township residents voted down a $15 million referendum to fund improvements at Rockaway Valley School, the oldest portions of which were built in 1959. The school board and administration "will evaluate community feedback before deciding how to move forward," Angelillo said after that vote.

Morris Catholic chief faced 'difficult' road

After seven years, Rev. Clarke announced last week he will step down as top official at Morris Catholic, which pulls students mostly from Morris County but in recent years has supplemented its enrollment with international students.

"I write to you today with a heavy heart," Clarke advised the school community in a letter last week. "Recently, I spoke to Bishop Sweeney and told him that I would be stepping down as president of Morris Catholic at the end of this academic year. I have always strived to be transparent, and as many of you know, the past few years have been extraordinarily difficult for me with the passing of my mother and some personal medical issues."

Founded in 1957, the school reports 425 students for this school year. Superintendent Mary Baiers is expected to advise the community on the search process for a new leader this week.

"Please join me in thanking Fr. Peter for his service and wishing him all the best in his future endeavors," Board of Trustees Chair Pat McAndrew wrote in a statement following Clarke's announcement. "I want to assure everyone that we will be working closely with the diocese [of Paterson] to ensure we find the best possible candidate to replace him."

More:First-ever digital SAT exam scores are out. How did NJ do?

A native of Mount Olive who grew up in Roxbury, Clarke served as principal of Don Bosco Prep in Wayne prior to arriving at Morris Catholic in 2017. Like Clarke and Angelillo, his term coincided with the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic.

"I am very proud of all our school community has accomplished over the past seven years," Clarke wrote. "It has indeed been a privilege to continue the fantastic work that generations have achieved and build upon the amazing things that happen daily at Morris Catholic."

NJ's smallest college

The Denville campus also is home to New Jersey's smallest college: In 2014, the Assumption College for Sisters took residence in the former Sisters of Christian Charity dormitory at the high school.

Fire companies from 16 districts and three counties responded Sunday to extinguish a blaze that severely damaged a Boonton Township home and displaced the family living there.

No one was injured in the incident on Miller Drive, initially blamed on a fire that started on a tractor under a deck attached to the home. The cause of the fire is still under investigation, according to the Boonton Township Fire Department.

"The occupants got out safely," the department said on Facebook.

Firefighters were dispatched to the home at 2:15 p.m. and found "a working fire, and with a huge plume of smoke seen across the valley," prompting a second alarm, the department stated. More support was summoned as conditions worsened and flames emerged through the roof.

Despite an "aggressive interior attack," the fire took about 90 minutes to extinguish. The house was deemed uninhabitable, the township said. Still, the department said, "The house is not a total loss and the owners can rebuild.

A GoFundMe account has been established to help the occupants, identified in the account as Kambiz and Ann Saadat. Tax records show them as the owners and occupants of the 2,577-square-foot house, built in 1965 on 2 acres of land.

Responders to the scene included fire companies from Boonton, Parsippany, Kinnelon, Rockaway, Mine Hill, Mount Arlington, West Milford, Budd Lake, New Vernon, Butler, Montville and Morris Plains.

Also responding were the Morris County Regional Fire Coordinator and Passaic County Fire Coordinator, Boonton EMS and the Morris County Office of Emergency Management.

Ombra Restaurant Brings a Taste of Venice to Boonton

he name Ombra means ‘shade’ or ‘shadow’ in Italian. It’s also Venetian slang for a small glass of wine, ‘un ombra de vin.’ It’s a fitting name for the Venetian-inspired salumeria and bar open in Boonton. But the name has even further cultural meaning behind it.

Legend says that a wine vendor set up his wine cart daily beneath a bell tower in Venice. He’d move his cart to stay in the tower’s shadow as the sun moved. That’s how the expression ‘to meet someone in the shadow of the bell tower’ came to mean ‘meet for a glass of wine.’ Over time, a glass of wine in Venice became known as an ‘ombra.’

More from Best of NJ

The restaurant is broken into a main dining area and lower level bar. The main floor boasts a mid-century modern vibe with a large oak bar. Patrons will notice exposed brick, tufted brown leather banquettes, and a white marble open-kitchen area. Meanwhile, the downstairs offers a smaller bar in a dimly lit intimate lounge with velvet couches and vintage cocktail tables. They also offer tasting events in their downstairs lounge, including wine tastings and cocktail classes.

Ombra features seasonal cocktails with an Italian flare. All the wines are Italian, focusing on the Veneto and other northern regions of Italy. The curated list is designed to pair with the cuisine and mimic the lists someone would see in Venice.

The Venetian-inspired menu at Ombra consists of various small plates highlighting local and seasonal ingredients and quality, imported products. Most of the menu features “tagliare,” or meat and cheese boards with artisanal cheeses and imported and cured meats. They also serve “cicchetti,” which are traditional small bites. Some examples are pesto and shrimp or goat cheese and salami served on crostini.

Other options include salads, antipasti, breads, and desserts such as the chocolate-butterscotch bomb or ricotta cheesecake with pistachio and cranberry. These desserts are all homemade at one of their other restaurants, Sorellina in Hoboken.

Popular dishes include their baccala salad, quail egg with anchovy, and a current seasonal favorite, apple butter with brebirousse cheese. Likewise, the panzanella salad with homemade focaccia bread and their burrata are big hits. They serve the latter with pears, apples, and granola.

Ombra Owner and Operator Gabi Lombardi grew up nearby in Mountain Lakes. “This was sort of a ‘hometown’ opening for me which is special,” she says. “It’s been really fun seeing many familiar faces enjoying Ombra.”

Gabi is a certified sommelier and International Culinary Center (ICC) graduate. She currently owns three other spots in Hoboken—Sorellina, Sirenetta, and Backstage Lounge. In addition, Gabi is currently renovating a restaurant down the road in Boonton (previously Il Michaelangelo). This new spot will be a full-service, two-story restaurant aiming to open in summer 2024.

Praised by Dr. Oz and Barstool, groundbreaking Morris County restaurant is on the move

A popular Morris County restaurateur − touted by "Barstool" and celebrated on the "Dr. Oz Show" − is shutting down his groundbreaking Main Street eatery in Boonton.

But Mickey Chopra is already scouting for a new location to continue his creative comingling of two rarely-blended cuisines.

Chopra has put the brick-and-mortar locations for his double play of Italian-Indian fusion restaurants, i2i and the neighboring Vinnie's Pizza and Ristorante, up for sale, along with the Vinnie's brand. The i2i name and concept, however, are going with him, ideally to a new location in the town he calls "my second home."

"I'm selling the business, I'm not selling the name," said Chopra, a Rockaway resident, adding, "i2i is just taking a pause."

Chopra immigrated to the United States at age 19 in 1987. A son and grandson of New Delhi restaurateurs, he took over the existing Vinnie's in 2016 and quickly expanded to incorporate his trademark Italian-Indian melange, adding dishes like chicken tikka calzones and butter chicken pizza.

Where's i2i moving?

But Chopra has decided the time is right to move. His lease is coming to an end, and he's been frustrated by "landlord issues" and a lack of parking along Main Street, he said. He's already scouting several sites in Morris County, including Boonton.

"My first choice would be to stay in Boonton," he said. "But not on Main Street."

Chopra's establishment was part of a revival over the last decade for the downtown district, where monthly "First Friday" events lure foot traffic to enjoy live music, trendy boutiques and a wide range of cuisines.

A pandemic hero

He also drew praise for his efforts to stay open and feed emergency responders during the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown in 2020. The attention eventually brought Dr. Mehmet Oz and his TV show to town.

During a February 2021 visit recorded for the show, Oz toured the i2i kitchen and presented a video tribute from DoorDash Chief Operating Officer Christopher Payne. Payne announced Chopra would receive a $10,000 grant and "white-glove service" to set up a new website.

"I am the perfect example of the American Dream," Chopra told Oz. "I gave away a lot of free meals, and I got a return, so God was watching."

Italian-Indian fusion blows up on Barstool

Barstool's Dave Portnoy also posted a memorable video after a 2021 trip to i2i.

"We stumbled across the first Italian-Indian fusion restaurant in the world," Portnoy said.

The next year, the Morris County Board of Commissioners recognized Chopra's community outreach work, awarding him $15,000 through a Small Business Grant program funded by the federal American Rescue Plan.

Since then, Chopra has expanded his family operation, taking over Caffe Delhi in Denville and enlisting his wife, Bhavana Chopra, to oversee a successful makeover of that spot's dining room, kitchen and menu.

Closing celebration in May

Chopra expects to choose a final destination soon for his Boonton operation, but it will take some time to reopen, he said.

"Some of the locations I am looking at will need a lot of work from the ground up," he said.

i2i will stay open until the last week in May. Chopra said customers should follow his social media for news of a big closing event that week. Staying in Boonton remains his goal.

"I don't want to leave Boonton," he said, "and Boonton wants me to stay."
