Hormones, such as estrogen and insulin, are chemical messengers that affect many aspects of your health as they travel in your bloodstream throughout your entire body.  Some of the most common effects of hormone imbalance include:

Infertility  – Weight gain  – Depression  – Fatigue  – Insomnia  – Low libido  – Hair Loss and thinning

Organs and glands like your thyroid, adrenals, pituitary, ovaries, testicles and pancreas regulate most of your hormone production, and if your hormones become even slightly imbalanced it can cause major health issues.

Also, new research shows that your gut health plays a significant role in hormone regulation so if you have leaky gut syndrome or a lack of probiotic foods lining your intestinal wall, it can also cause hormone imbalance. 

The good news is there are ways to balance your hormones naturally.

1 It makes people dependent on prescription drugs for the rest of their lives.
