RuNews24.ru spoke with biohacking expert Maria Molostvova about the causes of hormonal imbalance.
When the body lacks hormonal balance, this can manifest itself through a variety of symptoms:
- Fatigue
- Weight change
- Mood swings
- Skin problems
"Chronic inflammation caused by poor nutrition or stress maintains high levels of cortisol, the stress hormone. Elevated cortisol can lead to resistance to glucocorticoid receptors (GCR), which makes it difficult to suppress inflammatory responses. This creates a vicious cycle that can be difficult to break," said Maria Molostova.
The impact of diet and lifestyle on hormonal health
The inflammatory process in the body is usually exacerbated by an unbalanced diet and stress. Consuming foods high in refined sugar and fast food leads to constant insulin spikes, which in turn causes chronic inflammation in the intestines and creates an imbalance in hormone function.
What to do to restore hormonal balance
Fortunately, there are a number of simple but effective steps you can take to improve your hormonal health:
1. Organic diet: Stick to a diet free of refined and processed foods, giving preference to fresh fruits, vegetables, and whole grains.
2. Get enough sleep: Quality sleep is the foundation of healthy cellular metabolism and an important factor in reducing inflammation.
3. Regular physical activity: Create a meal and exercise schedule and try to stick to it regularly.
4. Grounding: Spending time outdoors helps reduce free radicals and inflammation.
5. Blue light protection: Wear blue-blocking glasses after sunset. This promotes melatonin production, which reduces inflammation and improves regeneration.
6. Meditation: Helps calm the nervous system, reducing stress levels and strengthening the immune system.
7. Hydration: Make sure you drink enough high-quality water to maintain cell health and cope with stress.
By following these simple recommendations every day, you can significantly improve your hormonal health and overall well-being.
“Remember that your body is a system in which everything is interconnected. Maintaining hormonal balance is the key to improving your quality of life and strengthening your immune system,” the expert recommends.
Don't forget the importance of taking care of yourself and your body.
