No one likes being out of balance, especially when the hot flashes, foggy thinking, and mood swings of menopause leave us feeling like a pale reflection of our former selves. Fortunately we have a lot more control over the ups and downs of menopause than we might think. Here are the Top 10 Tips to return to balance and a GOOD MENOPAUSE.
#1 Determine your own symptoms of hormone imbalance: www.zrtlab.com www.womeninbalance.org
#2 Test your hormones to detect hidden imbalances. You can order the Comprehensive Female Profile I online: www.zrtlab.com
#3 If testing identifies imbalances that require hormone therapy, insist on bio-identical hormones! Made to mimic natural physiology, they are better and safer than synthetic hormone combinations. You can find a natural hormone friendly physician to partner with at: www.womeninbalance.org https://myzrt.zrtlab.com/tools/FindProvider
#4 Support the adrenals: with optimal C, B-complex, D3, and herbal “adaptogens” such as Dong Quai, Astragalus, Ashwagandha, Maca, Rhodiola, that nourish the adrenal glands ability to adapt to stress.
Adrenals are the main source of hormone supplies during this time of life, so supporting them is key to a healthy menopause.
#5 Avoid xenoestrogens: eat “hormone free” foods, go GREEN with home, garden, and personal care products; microwave/heat/store foods in ceramic or glass (never plastic). Reject synthetic hormone replacement (HRT) and any products with unpronounceable ingredients.
#6 Counteract stress by releasing tension: stretching, deep breathing, yoga, Pilates, Zumba, walking, swimming. Exercise in the open air whenever possible.
#7 Strength train to boost anabolic hormones naturally (the kind that build and maintain) muscle, bone and libido. Work with a trainer to avoid injury.
#8 Get your vitamin Zzzs: at least 7 to 8 hours a night and if you can’t get it all in, never underestimate the power nap (5 to 15 minutes max)!
#9 Prioritize ME time: to unwind, enjoy life, and soothe stress hormones.
#10 Act the way you want to feel: research shows it works! Read: The Happiness Project by Gretchen Rubin.
