In addition to bioidentical hormones, making smart lifestyle choices maximizes treatment success:
Nutrition: Focus on whole, nutrient-dense foods - fruits, veggies, lean protein, nuts, seeds, beans, whole grains, and healthy fats. These provide the vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and omegas essential for balanced hormones and optimal wellness.
Exercise: Incorporate both cardio and strength training most days of the week. Exercise helps balance weight, energy, mood, and sleep while also building bone density and muscle mass.
Stress management: Chronic stress strains the adrenal glands and disrupts total body hormonal balance. Using relaxing strategies like yoga, meditation, deep breathing, and massage mitigates excess stress.
High-Quality Sleep: Getting 7-9 hours of quality sleep allows the body to recharge and properly synchronize hormonal rhythms. Support restful sleep by limiting caffeine, establishing a nighttime routine, and optimizing both light exposure and bedroom environment.
Following an overall healthy lifestyle helps bioidentical hormones work their magic! Balance Health Clinic also suggests enjoyable local spas, walking trails, yoga studios, and organic restaurants that support patient wellbeing during treatment.
Unlike conventional hormone therapy, bioidentical hormones have a chemical structure identical to the hormones naturally produced in the human body.
