A healthy body with balanced hormones continually manufactures everything it needs to cope with the stressors found in daily life and to help keep it functioning at optimum efficiency. However, when hormones become unbalanced due to inadequate supplies of the needed nutrients, higher than usual stress levels and toxic influences that surround us each day, our bodies become unhealthy and struggle to cope through the day.
A common misconception about hormone imbalance is that it only affects those women who are going through menopause. Hormonal changes and imbalance affects everyone from birth to death. Many of the times when women are affected by hormonal problems, as early as their 30s, it has a lot to do with their lifestyles and diets, pollution, toxins, and Xenoestrogens (synthetic chemicals that act as Estrogen in our bodies) that they are exposed to every day.
Some of the common symptoms of hormonal imbalance can include:
- Persistent weight gain.
