Hormone Balance
Medical science has long recognized that, by and large, as we age, our body’s hormone production decreases.
The big question, however, is this: Does hormone production diminish because we age, or do we age because our hormone levels fall?
Is it possible that, by accurately identifying and then replenishing hormone deficiencies, we can move toward the youthful vigor and vitality we once knew? The answer, not surprisingly, is a resounding “YES.”
Hormones … those tiny yet powerful chemical messengers that govern our body’s homeostasis and well-being … need to maintain a delicate balance for all to run smoothly. Growth hormone, thyroid hormone, cortisol, estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, melatonin, DHEA, pregnenolone, … the list goes on and on. Too much of one and our heartbeat races. Too little and we feel sluggish, cold, and have problems controlling our weight. Too little of another and our bones become brittle. Too little of yet another and our risk of heart disease increases.
Moreover, not all hormone replacement products are created equal. Some are far superior and safer than others. How do you know what you need? How do you know what’s optimal … not for just anyone, but for you?
At Living With Intention, Dr. Elliott can evaluate your biochemically unique hormone status and develop a plan to restore any deficiencies to their more optimal, vibrant, youthful levels.
