Are Hormones the issue? Or is it mineral imbalances.
Let’s stop calling it a hormone problem when it’s a mineral imbalance!
If you’re feeling all hormone imbalance symptoms that never seem go away…
PMS
Skin issues
Irregular or heavy periods, maybe even no ovulation
Thyroid and energy struggles
Pain, cramping, bloating
I can promise you these symptoms are here to stay unless you balance out your mineral levels.
It’s like starting in the middle of the story. Hormones react to the body’s minerals, stress, and blood sugar. Hormones can’t seem to do what they want to do until minerals level out.
This is why HTMA Testing is the roadmap you need to get your body into healing, give you the energy you’ve been missing, and feel yourself again.
Here’s what these symptoms are really telling you about your body.
Hormone symptoms are just a downstream effect of inadequate or biounavailable mineral levels. Trying to “fix your hormones” is like treating symptoms, and not the root cause.
Most women, especially after a shift to menopause use or are persuaded to use HRT (Hormone Replacement Therapy) to increase hormone levels - full of risks and side effects such as an increased risk of Deep Vein Thrombosis, blood clots, cardiovascular disease, breast cancer, endometrial or ovarian cancer to name a few.
Others may use BHRT (Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy) to fill in the hormone level gaps. Though much safer, this can cause women to feel much worse over a period of time. This is because the body is not producing hormones at adequate levels for a reason. When your body feels safe, is not overburdened by toxins, heavy metals, or pathogens, and more importantly, the adrenals as well as cortisol rhythms are steady - hormone levels will be produced adequately according to age. When this is not occuring, it is time to take a much deeper look.
We shouldn’t be trying to force the body to deal with synthetic or even bioidentical hormones to solve levels on a blood or functional test. Don’t get me wrong, bioidentical hormones have their place. They can be an excellenet way to jumpstart a system short-term for relief while the body cleans and supports organs and glands such as a the liver, adrenals, kidneys, and ovaries. But long-term, you can expect symptoms to reappear.
Minerals are the building blocks of life, especially to hormone production at all ages.
Low sodium = weak adrenal function
Low potassium = cellular dysfunction
Calcium and Magnesium imbalances = metabolic chaos and energy production issues
What should be the goal?
Balance your minerals, support the liver, kidneys, and adrenals accordingly, cleanse the body through nourishment and spontaneous removal through energy production. You will be amazed to find your hormones balance naturally when they have the right tools.
Stop working against your hormones. Instead, support the systems they rely on for proper production and maintenance. Not only is this easy and gentle on your body, but you will find that you are able to support your body long-term through any stage of life.
