Why Hormone Nutrient-Based Nutrition?
When you give your body the nutrients it needs to create hormones, break them down, and properly eliminate them, your body has the tools for balancing hormones naturally. While it may seem daunting to try to calculate these needs into your meals, we are here to help. Nutrevo Body selects whole food sources of hormone balancing nutrients to incorporate into meal plans to help you regain control of your body and mind. The Nutrevo Body hormone nutrient-based nutrition plan focuses on 5 areas of hormone balance:
Focus 1: Natural Thyroid Hormone Support
Thyroid hormones are the main regulators of most metabolic processes in the body. From metabolism to mood swings, thyroid hormone imbalances can negatively affect the quality of life. Infusing whole food sources of targeted nutrients such iodine, selenium, iron, Vitamin D3, and others can naturally nourish and support thyroid health.
Focus 2: Natural Cortisol Hormone Support
Known as the flight or fight hormone, the adrenal cortisol hormone is often overlooked when investigating chronic fatigue, belly fat, anxiousness, and digestive issues. Chronic stress, medications, poor dietary choices, and a constant on-the-go lifestyle can cause both low and high cortisol hormone levels.
Focus 3: Natural Insulin Hormone Support
Getting blood sugar (glucose) into cells to help properly fuel the body is one of the main roles of insulin hormones. Our fast-paced and fast-food lifestyles wreak havoc on insulin hormone balancing and as a result, depression, weight gain, and even diabetes can emerge. Biotin from eggs, chromium from red meat, and probiotics from yogurt are a few food and nutrient sources shown to naturally balance insulin hormone levels.
Focus 4: Natural Testosterone Hormone Support
Getting in the “mood” or a boost in libido is often associated with testosterone hormone abundance. However, this is only one common association with testosterone. Heart health, chronic pain, depression, PCOS, and even facial hair from too much testosterone hormones are other common symptoms or issues. Whether you want to increase or decrease testosterone hormone levels in the body, there are many whole food sources of nutrients to naturally provide testosterone hormone balance.
Focus 5: Estrogen/Progesterone Hormone Support
The roller coaster ride of estrogen and progesterone peaks and dips throughout the month can change your mood from one day to the next. From environmental toxin exposure to nutrient deficiencies, many factors can influence estrogen and progesterone balance.
