HO W T O F OLLOW THIS PROGRAM

If your intuition is telling you that it’s time for a detox, its most likely because your body is
bombarded with excess caffeine, alcohol, sugar, and pesticides from non-organic foods. If you
have been feeling low energy and have just about given up completely on yourself and have
been feeling hopeless towards your goals focus rst on your hormonal health.

Unlike crash diets, cleanses, or fasts, this detox protocol is designed to support optimal
hormone function. Imbalanced hormones can lead to stubborn belly fat, low energy levels, and
an overwhelming feeling of being “off.” When your hormones are functioning properly it results
in an overall mental and physical improvement with respect to mood, energy, digestion, skin,
and metabolic health.

This 7 Day Reset program was designed to be a modi able tool for your personal use. This is
by no means a one and done plan that you do and never return to again. The majority of you
will most likely follow this plan for weeks, if not months. The expectation is to boost the
metabolism, heal the gut, detoxify the body of excess circulating hormones, ght fatigue, and
cleanse the body from in ammatory foods and sugars. If you enjoyed this FREE plan, it is
recommended to get the full 21 day hormone reset on gaugegirltraining.com to continue your
journey of healing!

WHY RES ET YOUR HORMONE S?

Hormones dictate whether or not your body will either burn fat or hold on to it. We have
grown accustomed to accepting that the fate of our bodies boils down to our genetics.
Belly fat is one of the most challenging issues for women and the underlying reasons for
the various shapes of one’s belly stems far beyond one’s anatomical disposition. When it
comes to belly fat there are 3 main reasons we deal with this OUTSIDE of genetics.
Those reasons include bloating, weight gain, and hormone imbalances.

BLOATED TORSO- The bloated torso is commonly caused due to consumption of

dairy, gluten, food intolerances, imbalanced gut bacteria, consumption of high
FODMAP foods (fermentable oligio-saccharides, di-ssarcharides, mono-saccharides,
and polyols), carbonated beverages, and excessive carbohydrate consumption above
and beyond your body’s glycogen storage capacity. This is the easiest to address by
eliminating targeted foods. The stomach appearance tends to be a solid mass
protruding outwards and is directly proportional to the nature of the foods
consumed. Clients can drop upwards of 2-4” off the waist in the torso in the first 7
days if this is the true culprit. Note this is not necessarily fat loss, its typically reduced
fluid retention and relief from gas build up in the intestines.

WEIGHT GAIN-Now weight gain belly is the result of eating in a caloric surplus
above and beyond where you need to be to support fat loss. This type of belly tends
to consist of rolls, a dimpled texture, and an overall concentration of excess body fat
that spreads from right beneath the breasts all the way to the lower abdomen. The
weight gain belly is responsive to caloric restriction as well as increased exercise.
When following a targeted protocol you can experience a loss of approximately 1/2”
off the smallest part of the waist per week. Cutting out alcohol, processed sugars,
and increasing activity will address this issue for most. This can be more challenging
for those who tend to follow crash diets or those dealing with depression. There is no
added struggle to drop this type of body fat with consistent and dialed in nutrition.

 WHAT IS A H ORMONAL BELLY?

HORMONAL BELLY - Of the 3 belly types the hormonal belly is hands down distinctly
different in its responsiveness to traditional fat loss methods. This is the most challenging
to handle however it is 100% doable with dedicated efforts and strategic nutrition. These
underlying issues that cause hormonal belly include:

• Insulin Resistance
• High cortisol
• Estrogen dominance
• PCOS
• Leptin resistance
• PMS
• Thyroid issues

The distinct characteristic of this belly type is the unresponsive nature of the lower belly fat
no matter how long or how hard you diet or exercise. In fact you may even experience
weight gain when you have NOT increased your calories and are still relatively active.
Boosting ber, healthy fats, and protein is important for those with hormonal belly.
If this is you, you are losing the ability for your body to biochemically metabolize
stored body fat.

Over 70% of women suffer from these types of hormonal imbalances without even
realizing it. These imbalances tend to manifest in your body’s relative levels of estrogen to
progesterone. Your body requires a certain balance of these hormones, it’s not about the
absolute measured levels it's about the level of the respective hormones RELATIVE to the
others with the most common imbalance being estrogen dominance*. This occurs when
estrogen levels are high relative to progesterone. This condition drives the most common
health concerns from PMS to PCOS.

Estrogen dominance is a metabolic condition that requires a very different approach to

weight loss compared to conventional dieting approaches that require you to eat less and
exercise more. While in theory these principles are correct, when you have a metabolic
condition where the endocrine system is imbalanced, addressing that hormonal
imbalance needs to become your top priority. Estrogen dominance feeds a vicious cycle
of weight gain for women.

Too much estrogen in the body that is not broken down and eliminated by the liver
actually programs your fat cells to STORE MORE FAT. The more FAT these cells store, the
more ESTROGEN they then give out. This creates more estrogen in your body, which then,
of course, programs your fat cells to store more fat. This leads to consistent and easy
weight gain and makes it super hard to lose body fat.
*Note that this can and often occurs during and after menopause when estrogen levels are low, because even
low estrogen levels can be HIGHER than progesterone which results in the same outcome.

 WH O IS THIS P ROGRAM FOR?

This program is ideal for women over the age of 18 who are experiencing hormonal
imbalances resulting in the following symptoms:

Stalled Weight Loss- You feel like no matter how healthy you eat, how much you work
out, or how long you stick to a plan you are not able to lose an ounce

Irregular Periods- If your periods are not coming on a monthly basis where the duration,
time between cycles, and intensity of the periods are erratic its one of the biggest
indicators of an underlying imbalance.

Intolerable PMS- The days leading up to your period have taken over your life where
over the counter medication doesn’t provide suf cient relief.

Fatigue- No matter how many hours you sleep you don’t ever feel rested, you have a
hard time focusing, and you feel like you constantly need coffee to function regardless of
what time of day it is.

Low Energy- The idea of working out on a regular basis seems daunting and you
experience exhaustion very easily

Low Libido- Your interest in sex is practically non-existent and you have lost your sex
drive.

Con icting Results- Your doctor may attribute your health concerns to “your hormones”
yet your test results may say you are “ ne” even though you don’t feel ne

 HOW DOES THIS RE SET METHOD WORK

I created this method of resetting your hormones between 2017 and 2021. It began with
a phone call from my cousin in 2017 that was lled with tears due to a diagnosis of PCOS
and uterine broids. She has been trying to conceive and all the doctors told her she
needed to lose weight as she experienced miscarriage after miscarriage. Yet she was
doing everything she could to lose weight and was not experiencing weight loss at all. T
This was when I stepped in a created something special for her.

What we did was put her on a moderately high protein intake, increased her dietary fat
intake, lowered her carbohydrates, and increased her dietary ber. Since following this
plan over the course of several months to a year plus my suggested supplemental
cocktails (as my hormone products did not yet exist) during that time, we were not only
able to help her lose over 40lbs, she was able to conceive naturally and I am now the
proud Tita (Filipino for Auntie) of a baby boy named Israel who we call Izzy.

Since that time I’ve collected tons of case studies with my one on one online coaching
clients that have experienced everything from hypothyroidism, menopause, infertility,
broids, endometriosis, bromayalgia, cysts, and even cancer. I have countless stories
and the impact of these nutritional changes on the lives of these women has not only
changed their lives, but it has changed my entire vision for not only what it means to live
a healthy life but what women truly NEED to feel better.

The gap between doctors prescribing pills and proper nutrition education on how to
actually eat to combat health issues that impact over 70% of women is absolutely
astounding. The most common gaps I have observed in how a female needs to eat to
properly address these issues include the following:

• Increased Calories- The most shocking thing you will nd is that the caloric de cit
does not need to be set for 1lb of body fat loss per week to experience a change. Once
your hormones are reset which can take 1-3 weeks depending on the individual. The
goal of the increase is to boost the metabolic rate, you have to trust me on this one and
leave behind all predisposed notions that less is “better.” What is better is what the
body NEEDS to balance the endocrine system.

• Increased Fiber- Fiber is the most important nutrient for this reset. You will see that for
the rst week I have you set at 45g of ber per day. The average person only gets 10g
maximum. This value is so high because it is essential to support the detoxi cation of
excess estrogens, cholesterol, and for liver detoxi cation. You will see the ber content
drop from 40 to 30 grams per day over the course of this program. Not only will you
need ber form food but also supplemental ber to address thee detoxi cation needs.

 HOW DOES THIS RE SET METHOD WORK

• Increased Fat intake- Dietary fat intake does not equal fat gain. The low fat diet craze
of the 1980s into the early 2000’s has had people under fueling on necessary nutrients.
Fat is essential for hormone balance when insulin resistance is involved as well as for
regulating normal cell division to keep the immune system functional. The problem is
that most high fat diets including the ketogenic diet do not emphasize fat quality and
low quality oils, dairy, and in ammatory fats are often included. In addition higher fat
nutrition protocols are not properly balanced with regards to ber as high fat typically
means low carb, and low carb typically does not address ber requirements. So
properly dialing up fat intake ensuring that it comes from high quality healthy fat
sources is a common challenge that exible dieting unfortunately is a little too lenient
in when a legitimate hormonal reset is in order.

• Elimination of Caffeine- Don’t hate the messenger. Caffeine has been proven to cause
the formation of cysts in the breasts and ovaries. According to the American
Association of Cancer research, caffeine increases the formation of cysts. If you have
PCOS, endometriosis, ovarian cysts or brocystic breasts, caffeine is a guaranteed to
form even more cysts. It may not cause cysts but it will disrupt the endocrine system
and that is serious justi cation for elimination. It must be eliminated during this
program for optimal results.

• Increased Sleep- Sleep regulates the level of cortisol, a steroid hormone produced by
the adrenal glands. It's also known as the stress hormone. The hormones that regulate
satiey (lepitin) and hunger (ghrelin) are negatively impacted by sleep deprivation. It is
recommended to aim for 8 hours of sleep per night on this protocol for maximum
results.

• Proper Hydration-Believe it or not dehydration negatively impacts hormone levels.The

amount of blood lost through heavy cycles, long cycles, or excessive blood loss
requires proper hydration to keep things in balance. Even a minimal loss of water, like
2% reduction, which is not even clinical dehydration, it's just a very mild dehydration – it
can actually cause neurological symptoms, like estrogen brain fog, confusion, fatigue,
dizziness and even worse. Drink a minimum of 3-4L daily on this program.

• Improved Food Quality-Rebalancing your hormones entails eliminating products that

contain estrogen disruptors such as plastics, personal care products containing
xenoestrogens, and any pesticide-treated produce from a country outside of the US,
such as Mexico. Steering clear of hormone-loaded foods does not require you to go on
a plant-based nutrition protocol. There are plenty of quality sources of animal-based
proteins that are pasture-raised, grass-fed, grain-free and easily accessible. It is
encouraged to choose organic if you are able to on this program.

 HOW DOES THIS RE SET METHOD WORK

• Elimination of Processed Foods & Sugar- Re ned sugars and processed foods lead
to a world of unnecessary additives that directly result in high blood sugar and insulin
management issues if abused or if you are predisposed to diabetes due to your
genetics. Not only are these foods unhealthy from the perspective of being low in
nutrients and not being particularly lling or satiating, they also contain potential toxins
linked to a wide variety of diseases.

• Elimination of Red Meat- Consumption of red meat such as beef, pork, lamb, duck,
and smoked meats increases the likelihood of in ammation and stressed the digestive
system. This is a cause of concern because the way the animals were raised plays a
huge role and the animals involved in the production of red meat tend to be loaded
with hormone induced diets to support maximum mass at the time of slaughter. We are
eliminating these foods during this reset to ensure that there are zero potential sources
of hormones from the animal meat itself.

• Inclusion of Targeted Supplementation-

• Indole 3 Carbinol- DIM also known as di-indole methane is an indole

compound naturally found in cruciferous vegetables. DIM comes from IC3 aka
Indole-3 Carbinol. This ingredient is known to stimulate detoxifying enzymes in
the gut and liver. Because diets high in these vegetables slow cancer growth in
animals, IC3 is thought to be a good candidate for cancer prevention. Studies
increasingly indicate that dietary indole-3-carbinol (IC3) prevents the
development of estrogen-enhanced cancers including breast, endometrial and
cervical cancers. Epidemiological, laboratory, animal and translational studies
support the ef cacy of IC3.*

• Prebiotic Fiber- Prebiotic foods are high in special types of ber that support
digestive health. They promote the increase of friendly bacteria in the gut, help
with various digestive problems, and even boost your immune system. Prebiotic
foods have also been shown to improve metabolic health and even help prevent
certain diseases.Fiber, especially the soluble type, is an important component of
a healthy diet. Studies have found that it increases insulin sensitivity and
stimulates the production of hormones that make you feel full and satis ed

• Probiotics- Estrogen plays many roles in the body, helping repair tissues and
having a protective effect. It declines as you age, but something needs to ll in
for it so your body can be healthy. Probiotics can help if you have symptoms of
menopause-related to low estrogen levels in the body. Probiotics regulate the
hormones through the intestinal microbiome in PCOS patients
