7 daily habits That Will Boost Your Hormone Balance
I know, I know- the last thing you want to hear...but caffeine can increase cortisol, our stress hormone,
which can exacerbate hormonal imbalance issues.
Switch to decaf, herbal tea, or any beverage from my Bonus favorite Coffee Subs!
For years, professionals in the field were telling us to stay away from dietary fats.
I'm calling BS! Fats are the building blocks of our sex hormones, so make sure you're getting at least a
serving or two at every meal.
There is no substitute for quality sleep when it comes to hormone balance. if you have to use electronics at
night, the blue light can disrupt your circadian rhythm, making you toss and turn at night. Find the setting
on your smart phone and laptop to turn on your blue light filter and promote a good night's sleep.
Did you know your liver is where your body detoxifies its estrogen? Support your liver in doing its job by
helping the detoxification process along. Stock up on cruciferous vegetables like cabbage, broccoli, brussels
sprouts, bok choy, and cauliflower. you can also drink 2-3 cups of dandelion root tea daily. These will help
your effectively clear out excess estrogen, which makes room for healthy progesterone production.
It's no secret: getting adequate fiber improves your digestion. When you eat fiber, it feeds your good, or
commensal, gut bacteria so they flourish and grow! Healthy gut bacteria help your body break down excess
estrogen and eliminate it from the body. If you're not having a bowel movement daily, it could mean you're
holding onto estrogen when you shouldn't be. I recommend at least 35 grams of fiber each and every day!
