Tips To Maintain A Healthy Hormonal Balance
Have you ever experienced any of these hormone imbalance symptoms?
Weight gain, muscle soreness, night sweats, irregular periods, mood swings, or reduced sex drive?
Here’s a few ways to maintain healthy hormone balance:
Sleep
Maintain a regular sleep schedule and optimize your pre-bedtime routine to practice good sleep hygiene.
Why?
Interrupted or irregular sleep habits might cause abnormalities in your body’s release of cortisol, the same hormone released when you are stressed. This can lead to unwanted weight gain.
Nutrition
Try to have foods high in vitamin D, such as tuna or egg yolks as well as healthy fats like fish, nuts, seeds and olive oil.
These foods can also help ensure you’re eating enough iodine to support normal thyroid function.
Why is this important?
The thyroid gland is a vital hormone gland: It plays a major role in the metabolism, growth and development of the human body.
