Hormones, chemical messengers produced mainly in the endocrine glands and secreted into the bloodstream, play a crucial role in homeostasis, maintaining balance, and stability of the body’s internal milieu. Hormones generate and regulate growth and development, metabolism, reproduction, mood, sleep, and indeed, all bodily functions. The medical community is increasingly recognizing hormone optimization as a key building block to an extended high quality of life. There is a growing need and interest in evidence-based non-hormonal solutions to alleviate excess, insufficient, and deficient hormone symptoms. This presentation explores evidence-based approaches to manipulating hormone levels without the need for prescription hormonal input. Focusing on 11 hormones: Testosterone, estrogens, progesterone, growth hormone, thyroid hormone, cortisol, insulin, DHEA, pregnenolone, prolactin, and melatonin, we review the potential impact of diet, exercise, herbs, minerals, and vitamins on raising or lowering hormone levels. This webinar promises to be a valuable resource for adjunctive relief from hormonal imbalances for all practitioners looking to achieve better outcomes for their patients.
