5 Steps to Hormonal Health and Weight Loss

Hormonal health is a very important topic. The effects of hormonal dysfunctions on our body are very varied and one of its manifestations is weight gain. Hormonally altered women often gain weight between the armpits and upper thighs, even if their arms, legs and neck look normal. In the case of men, this excess weight accumulates around the waist and mammary glands. Estrogen is produced in fat cells, and increases their production, becoming a vicious cycle of increased estrogen and** increased fat cells**. Breaking this cycle and following a weight loss program is what you need. Test your hormones to find out the ratio of estrogen to progesterone in your body. If you are out of balance, called estrogen dominance, you are likely currently suffering from weight gain around your waist. Start an estrogen lowering program. This should include increasing your progesterone levels with a bioidentical progesterone cream. Don’t forget that the important thing is to strike a balance.

Other measures to follow are:

– Increase your fiber intake. Both by consuming any product that contains it (fruits, vegetables and whole grains), as well as supplements, up to consuming 30 to 50 grams of fiber per day. – Increase the indols in your diet, contained in vegetables such as broccoli, cabbage and cauliflower. At least 3 servings daily. Use an indole-3-carbinol supplement if necessary. – Increase essential fatty acids in your diet, which help balance the production of prostaglandins in the body and therefore regulate estrogen. – Increase your overall nutrition by consuming extra vitamin C and a concentrated fruit and vegetable supplement. Follow a balanced diet. Include proteins, carbohydrates and fats in a balanced way in each meal. When we eat balanced foods our weight normalizes, our energy levels increase and our hormones will be in balance. Get going. Develop an exercise program with the help of a specialist and with routines that you like to practice so that you follow them punctually. Stay away from the TV and invest that time in exercising, your health will thank you. Celebrated! Men and women whose hormones are out of balance feel unwell. Men and women who have hormonal balance feel good. Achieving hormonal health will increase your overall health and well-being and help you lose weight, so it’s worth your dedication and effort.
