Find Hormone Harmony To Create Balance In Your Life

Dr. Alicia Stanton, BodyLogicMD’s Chief Medical Officer was interviewed on CBS and discussed how to best balance hormones and how to create balance in your life. Hormones are our body’s messengers and are necessary for our brain to communicate with our cells. As a person ages, some of the key hormones like estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and thyroid decrease; and hormones like insulin and cortisol start to increase. This combination often leads to a myriad of symptoms commonly associated with aging. By focusing on what we are eating and maintaining blood sugar and insulin levels stable, we can create balance in our lives. Managing stress is a key component to optimal health. When one’s body is stressed, it produces cortisol (the stress hormone). Cortisol has the same building blocks as testosterone and estrogen, and the more we’re diverting these ‘materials’ to making cortisol, the less building blocks we have to make the important hormones.
