Menopause Essential Resource
I want you to think about your hormones like a cake recipe. Each of these hormones must be in proper balance in order for the cake to bake correctly. What happens when your ingredients are off? What does it taste like? Does it bake correctly and rise in the middle, or does it collapse? My goal is for you to have a thorough understanding of these ingredients and how they combine together so feel your best and thrive as you transition through menopause. When they’re out of balance you’re likely feeling like a HOT MESS!! Let’s dig into these ingredients and how we can rectify things to help you on your journey.
Macronutrients
(EGGS/BUTTER)
The third ingredient “EGGS/BUTTER” or MACRONUTRIENTS. I want to help you improve your food group knowledge by teaching you how to evaluate your food intake as well educate you on the importance of the three major food groups and how the proper intake of carbs, fats, and protein will improve your health long-term. You can find more information on macronutrient coaching here.
Supplementation
(SUGAR)
The third ingredient of our hot mess hormonal cake is “SUGAR” or SUPPLEMENTATION. Aside from increasing your education about how nutrition affects your horomones, it’s also important to create a plan to ensure your body is getting the proper supplementation for maximum nutrion. You can find some of the recommended supplements here.
Toxins
(SALT)
Ingredient number four is “SALT” or TOXINS. Knowledge about our exposure to daily toxins is imperative. It is important for you to begin removing all of the hormone disruptors you’re exposed to daily by removing household and beauty items that are damaging to your health. Exposure to endocrine disruptors like phthalates and pesticides can be a major cause in your hormonal imbalance. As you do this, your body will have the energy to absorb all of the beneficial things and prevent diseases like cancer.
Conclusion
When you take this recipe described above and mix it all together, you will be well on your way to your desired goal…weight loss, muscle growth and retention, losing that stubborn belly fat, better sleep, less bloating, and balancing your hormonal levels. All of these changes when implemented over time will bring you into the space of rising to the occasion and living a life of health, vitality, and having the energy you did when you were younger. I’m excited to be helping you along your journey!! I’m so happy you’re here.
