Your sex hormone levels are an important marker to

Your sex hormone levels are an important marker to how vibrant you feel in every day life!
.
You may have sex hormones that are too low, too high, or a combination of both. We test these at the right time in your menstrual cycle.
.
📌The beginning of your cycle, on day 3, is a great time to test follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), estrogens and anti-mullerian and hormone (AMH).
.
📌Approximately 7 days after ovulation is a good time to test progesterone and the androgen hormones testosterone and DHEA.
.
Many conditions can be picked up with comprehensive hormone testing, including:
.
✴️Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)
✴️Luteal Phase Deficiency.
✴️Premature Ovarian Insufficiency (POI).
✴️Poor egg quality as assessed by AMH.
.
Most sex hormone imbalances can be helped with holistic approaches within Functional and Chinese medicine.
.
.
In my program, Reclaim Your Hormones, you have the chance to order labs so that we can see exactly what YOUR body needs to feel balanced.
.
In addition, this is what is also included:
.
.
Each week you’ll receive a new module (12 total). You’ll read or listen to 3 weekly lessons, with simple and accessible action steps. These steps include:
.
✅ Tuning into your relevant mind-body signals: your appetite, pleasure, satisfaction, energy, mood, and mental clarity.
✅ Gathering specific body info, like your temperature and your blood sugar.
✅ Getting and assessing your blood chemistry labs.
✅ Exploring gentle ways to release stress and experience deep relaxation.
✅ Experimenting with food choices based on gentle nutrition guidelines, without a rigid meal plan or diet.
.
.
.

✅ 12 mind-body tracking logs, a different one for each week/module.
✅ Food guides for breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, beverages, and desserts.

Healthy hormones are directly linked to a healthy

Healthy hormones are directly linked to a healthy liver.
.
Did you know that most of your body’s toxic waste goes through 3 phases? 👇
.
1️⃣Phase 1.
This is your first line of defense against toxins and uses a group of enzymes known as the cytochrome P450 family. These enzymes protect your cells from damage. It’s activated by many external substances including:
.
✴️Caffeine.
✴️Alcohol.
✴️Contraceptive pills.
✴️Herbs.
✴️And vitamin C rich foods.
.
2️⃣Phase 2
Phase 2 is all about conjugation, which uses 6 different pathways to take water-soluble phase 1 metabolites OUT of your body through your bile, urine, and stool. Phase 2 requires:
.
📍Sulfur! (from cruciferous veggies, garlic, onions, meat, and egg yolks).
📍Amino acids: glycine, cysteine (or n-acetyl cysteine), taurine, and methionine (meat).
📍Molybdenum - a trace mineral (leafy vegetables, liver).
📍Vitamin B12 (meat).
📍Glutathione - which is made from the above amino acids.
.
The catch is that Phase 2 liver detox is often sluggish, probably due to the lack of intake of the above nutrients in sufficient quantities.
.
👉You really do NOT want this, because the metabolites of Phase 1 are quite dangerous and need to be moved out!👈
.
So, you may activate phase 1 simply by your morning coffee and your evening glass of wine, yet if you have a sluggish phase 2, you could suffer the results of these “toxins” hours later. This may explain your:
.
📌Insomnia.
📌Brain fog.
📌Or hot flashes.
.
3️⃣Phase 3
This is about transportation. It mainly refers to the transport of phase 2 conjugates either: to the kidneys for further filtration and then out of your body via your bladder and urine OR through your GI tract for elimination via stool.
.
Phase 3 requires:
.
✅ Adequate hydration for the kidney-urine elimination
✅ Proper function of your GI system - meaning you poop daily, without constipation, sluggishness, loose stools, or diarrhea.
.
✨Supporting detox pathways is always a top priority to support hormones!✨

Let’s talk about healthy elimination!⁠ .⁠ Th

Let’s talk about healthy elimination!⁠
.⁠
The toxic waste in your body goes through three phases, with the third ending in the waste going through your GI tract for elimination via stool.⁠
.⁠
Proper function of your GI system is essential for your body to complete phase 3. This means pooping daily, without:⁠
.⁠
✴️Constipation⁠
✴️Sluggishness⁠
✴️Loose stools⁠
✴️Or diarrhea. ⁠
.⁠
You want your poop to score a #4 or 5 on the Bristol chart. ⁠
.⁠
But what if your Bristol score is NOT ideal? 👇⁠
.⁠
If you do not produce one or more #4-5 poops daily, something is causing this. You could have a myriad of underlying causes. Likely culprits include:⁠
.⁠
👉Dysbiosis.⁠
An overgrowth of pathogenic microbes in your GI tract, or not enough core beneficial bacteria –– dysbiosis can cause loose OR sluggish stools.⁠
.⁠
👉Lack of fiber.⁠
Fiber feeds beneficial bacteria, their byproducts form stool –– lack of fiber can cause loose OR sluggish stool.⁠
.⁠
👉Magnesium deficiency.⁠
Magnesium deficiency is so common! It’s often THE culprit of sluggish stools.⁠
.⁠
👉Food intolerance.⁠
Eating foods which you have an intolerance to can cause loose OR sluggish stools.⁠
.⁠
.⁠
What’s your score on the Bristol chart? Don’t be shy, comment below!⁠
