up in the morning, my knees work.” I hold the position that pleasure and hap- piness are actually the only things that work for us and are sustainable.
What is the relationship of pleasure to the health-enhancing effects of nitric oxide?
Nitric oxide is an odorless, colorless gas that’s produced by the lining of ev- ery blood vessel in the body. It passes through cell walls instantaneously and can simultaneously boost circulation. It’s also the über neurotransmitter that signals all body cells to balance out levels of serotonin, dopamine and beta- endorphins, which produce feelings of well-being. Nitric oxide is not stored in the body, so exercise, especially aerobics, helps raise its levels in the body at any age. When someone wins an Olympic gold medal, you can be sure he or she is at the height of a nitric oxide burst.
Why do you believe that “life has just begun” after menopause?
When you are in midlife, you obviously have the same soul as when you were 12.

much as you used to, and yet you are able to better appreciate others because you appreciate yourself.
Now that I’m over 50, everything I’m drawn to and everything my body wants to do brings me more plea- sure. This goes against everything we’ve been taught—that we’re designed to disintegrate with age, get osteoporosis and decline into chronic degenerative diseases.
As of midlife, I feel like I’ve come home to myself. For example, I’ve been dancing Argentine tango for a year and loving it. I’m also happy to report that my daughters have come home to themselves more quickly than I have. I would like to egg all women on with this concluding thought: A woman’s body is designed for pleasure, and when we invite it into our own lives, we are a gift to the world.
