HORMONAL HEALTH
Many of us are heading into our 40’s and 50’s, and are knocking on the door of perimenopause and menopause. Whilst we can help you address some of the visible elements of the ageing process, we need to be mindful how our hormonal health is integral to healthy ageing.
Some of our top tips for Hormonal Balance and Longevity in Ageing.
1) Reduce sugar intake and engage in regular exercise (this helps optimise insulin sensitivity).
2) Manage stress. This is easier said than done (trust me,I know), but try and find a way that works for you. Some people it may be yoga, mindfulness or meditation. This helps regulate cortisol and support the adrenal cortex.
3) Support thyroid function, with a diet that is rich in hormone supporting nutrients. These include iodine and selenium ie fish, eggs, nuts.
4) Engage in resistance training to maintain muscle mass.
5) Consider HRT, and non hormonal options when appropriate.
Speak to your GP if this is suitable for you.
6) Prioritise sleep.
7) Incorporate key nutrients such as omega 3’s, vitamin D.
Please remember, in clinic treatments are only one aspect of healthy ageing.
By applying some of these principles, we can all live a more vibrant and healthy life.
