Weight loss is a complex process influenced by various factors, including diet, physical activity, and genetics. However, one of the most critical yet often overlooked factors is the role of hormones. Hormones are chemical messengers that regulate numerous physiological processes, including metabolism, appetite, and fat storage. In women, estrogen and progesterone play crucial roles in reproductive health and also influence body weight. During menopause, declining estrogen levels can lead to an increase in abdominal fat. Estrogen helps regulate fat distribution, and its decrease during menopause shifts fat storage from the hips and thighs to the abdomen. Progesterone levels also decline during menopause, contributing to water retention and bloating, which can make weight gain more noticeable. https://lnkd.in/e4pYEiZt #SynergyIntegrativeHealthandWellness #WellnessJourney #WeightLoss

Having a healthy digestive system is imperative to good health as it is the foundation of good health. You see, • The digestive system consists of hormones, nerves, blood and bacteria. They all work together to do an intricate job of digesting all the liquids and foods consumed daily. The digestive system also interacts with all the other systems of the body. • There are digestive enzymes that speed up all the chemical reactions in your body, breaking down the food you eat into nutrients. (I will teach you this during the webinar) • Cells are found in your stomach and the small intestine lining, which release and produce hormones. These stimulate your digestive juices and regulate your appetite helping with weight management (I will show you this during the webinar) Want to learn more, use link in the comment to join the group! #theholistictransformer #Webinar #holisticwellness #healthcoach #busyprofessionals #women #womenshealth #busymoms #20daylinkedchallengewithhaoma

It’s here, finally! I can’t wait to learn more from this knowledgeable lady on such an important topic that’s relevant at some point to half the population! Menopause, post menopause and perimenopause are all natural processes but it doesn’t mean it’s not harmful to a woman’s health. Producing less estrogen creates serious risks in a number of areas including but not limited to: osteoporosis, alzheimer’s, dementia and more. It’s important to be informed and know what your choices are through diet, lifestyle, supplements and or HRT.

In my work, I see countless women at my telehealth clinic dealing with chronic hormone imbalances. Between coming off birth control, poor diets, increased toxin exposure, and heightened stress, there are more factors in our modern world working against women’s hormone health other than championing it. Because of this, women have started looking for natural ways to rebalance their hormones, with one of these ways being cycle syncing. By harnessing the power of nutrition, exercise, and self-care, cycle syncing can support everything from irregular periods, PMS, and even infertility. So if you are ready to take back control of your health, read on to learn more about cycle syncing and how you can implement this into your daily life: https://bit.ly/465h0Lc #functionalmedicine #hormonehealth #womenshealth #cyclesyncing #seedcycling #hormonebalance #hormoneimbalance #pcos #amenorrhea #pmdd #endometriosis #thyroidhealth
