Are you dealing with symptoms of estrogen dominance such as bloating, breast tenderness, irregular cycles or moodiness? Wonder if your hormones are to blame for headaches, anxiety, increased belly fat or even hair loss? Tune in to learn why estrogen dominance is so common, how everyday exposures to things like plastic and perfume can contribute and how you can support optimal hormone balance.
Estrogen dominance is either the excess of estrogen circulating in the body OR the dominance of estrogen due to insufficient countering hormones including progesterone for women and testosterone for men. This hormonal imbalance is especially common when dealing with rapid weight gain or weight loss, hormonal birth control use and exposure to toxins and endocrine disruptors and can impact women at any stage from cycling to menopausal as well as men. Tune in to learn about the symptoms and causes of estrogen dominance and how to reduce exposures in your day to day life. Plus we walk you through our Estrogen Dominance Protocol and detail supplement, lifestyle and food-as-medicine recommendations.
