Hormonal Balance for Metabolism and
Rejuvenation
Hormones are natural chemicals that we blame for weight
gain, hot flashes, PMS, and food cravings. They regulate
everything from your appetite, weight, muscle to fat ratio,
mood, menstrual cycle, hair and skin appearance. Your
hormones are constantly in a state of flux. They are never
steady, always going up or down. Your brain “listens” to
your hormones to figure out what to do. Many things can go
wrong with hormones. There can be too much or not
enough; the receptors might not work, there might be
proteins in the blood binding up specific hormones … the
possibilities are endless.
Many of our vital hormones are produced by our bodies at a
fraction of what they were when we were young. These low
levels, once considered a normal part of aging, are now
considered by many physicians to be abnormal. But that
need not be the end of the story. With a greater
understanding of the effects of obesity, stress,
environmental endocrine disruptors, the role of
carbohydrates, the myths and realities of bioidentical
hormones and male hormone supplementation for women,
you can be in the driving seat in achieving hormonal
balance. Combining this knowledge with following a healthy
eating plan like the Hormonal Health Diet and regular
physical activity, you can reverse some the hormonal
changes that occur with aging.
