Did you know if you are a woman between the ages of 35 and 55 you are considered peri menopausal and are most likely experiencing a hormone imbalance? I too, on in this same hormonal roller coaster and wanted to share what works and what doesn’t.
First off, let’s find out if you are experiencing a hormone imbalance:
There are many signs and symptoms of hormonal imbalance, such as:
• PMS
• osteoporosis
• weight gain
• altered sex drive
• allergies
• urinary tract infections
• skin conditions (too dry or too oily)
• fatigue
• anxiety
• water retention
• hair loss
• facial hair growth
• depression
What to do… Supplement to get back in balance. By keeping hormones balanced, it’ll be easier to maintain healthy weight, keep a regular menstrual cycle, and have optimal energy levels.
KEY HORMONES TO KEEP IN CHECK:
CORTISOL
Cortisol is your main stress hormone. When your body is under stress, your adrenal glands release cortisol. Many of us carry too much of this stress and don’t make time to switch it off.
When cortisol levels are high for too long, you may experience greater fatigue, mood swings, and stubborn belly fat. Yikes!
This is why I’m sharing my top supplements for hormone balancing:
ASHWAGANDA & RHODIOLA found in Deep Calm Plant Based Chill Pill
Both are adaptogenic herbs commonly used in naturopathic medicine to balance hormonal imbalances. Studies show the many benefits of rhodiola and ashwaganda including aids thyroid function, improves immune function, and helps the body adapt to stress—all of which factor into hormonal balance. Both can be found in Fit Body’s Deep Calm Plant Based Chill Pill— which has the unique ability to encourage hormonal health at a cellular level, aiding your resilience to stress.
VITAMIN B12 found in LipoBurn Lipotropic (Fat Burner) Slimming Spray
Research reports a prevalence of vitamin B12 deficiency in those with poorly functioning thyroids. Vitamin B12 is essential for proper nerve function. B12 is responsible for energy levels, memory, and learning and retaining information. B12 is found in Fit Body’s LipoBurn and can help you stay in hormonal balance.
MELATONIN found in Dream Body Nighttime Sleep & Fat Burning Gummies
Sleep is one of the most important keys to balanced hormones. Healthy sleep allows the body to recover from any duress it may have suffered throughout the day. A lack of sleep means less recovery time, thus swinging hormones into overdrive. Try to get at least seven or eight hours of sleep each night and as a Master Nutritionist I recommend an all natural, bio-available melatonin supplement I created to stave off hormonal imbalances. It’s called Dream Body Gummies and it’s a wonderful nighttime sleep supplement that also helps your body burn more body fat while you sleep— while simultaneously balancing hormones. This is especially important for women who are 35-55 years of age and are considered peri menopause.
Now, here’s what NOT to do. Ignore the problems and hope they go away on their own. Unfortunately, I know this does not work from personal experience. The symptoms will only magnify and get worse over time. If you need help finding out what supplements are best for you please reach out and I’d be happy to help you.
A woman’s hormonal health is delicate. Unhealthy eating habits, high stress, and a sedentary lifestyle can all wreak havoc on your hormones. However, even women who eat healthily and get proper exercise can struggle with hormonal issues. This is why supplements can help you get back in hormone harmony.
