Hormone Highs and Lows

As temperatures climb, our hormones are also revving up. The warm-weather surge brings welcomed boosts of energy and optimism. Yet, hormonal swells may leave some feeling moody, sluggish, or out of sorts until equilibrium is restored.

Whether you're enjoying the seasonal hormone peak or grappling with the transition, this issue of NatureMed Pulse will help you through.

What to Eat with Cushing’s Syndrome

We've all felt the hormonal havoc of stress, but for people with Cushing's syndrome, keeping cortisol in check is a daily struggle. Opting for lean proteins, healthy fats, and fresh fruits and vegetables can help regulate cortisol production and support overall wellness, but which is the most effective dietary strategy for people with Cushing's? From low-carb and ketogenic diets to essential vitamins and minerals, smart food choices go a long way in lowering cortisol levels.

Regaining Hormonal Balance

The endocrine system influences almost every cell, organ, and function in our bodies. When it's out of sync, we may feel tired, moody, extra hungry (or not hungry at all), and foggy. Hormones are seldom completely balanced, as our bodies constantly respond to environmental cues. Being "unbalanced" is more common than you think; it can happen with menstrual cramps, irregular cycles, PCOS, endometriosis, perimenopause, or menopause. Managing symptoms starts with natural approaches to get your body back on track.


In good health,
