Our endocrine system is one of the major hormone & communication pathways in our body. Things like stress, hormone disrupters, PUFA's, environmental toxins & so much more, can disrupt that system. It's essential to the health & vibrance of our bodies that we care for our hormones. 

When we are stressed our bodies activate what's called the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis - the loop of neurotransmitters & hormones that include cortisol. When we’re being chased by a lion, this loop is a good thing. The harm comes when the loop doesn’t turn off. Consistent overproduction of cortisol keeps this loop going & going & going. This means our systems are literally flooded with stress- this stress starts to suppress immunity, slow digestion & can have bad, long-lasting effects.

So, what do we do about it? We find ways to effectively process stress and we support our bodies DAILY with supplements, high-quality nutrition & essential oils!! Endoflex oil is a blend I use daily. It supports healthy thyroid function, hormones, metabolism, & adrenals - the entire endocrine system! By providing balance to this body system, Endoflex oil gives vital support to the pituitary & pineal glands as well as the parathyroid, thymus & adrenal glands. 

One of the things I take daily for homrone support is Progessance Plus Serum. Your body needs progesterone to cycle correctly, stay calm/balanced & regulate other hormones (specifically estrogen.) Without sufficient progesterone levels, your body will STRUGGLE, so taking a whole food (wild yams) form of progesterone support can do a lot for you!

Low progesterone symptoms:
-poor blood sugar control
-susceptible to stress, overwhelm, worry
-feeling anxious
-not sleeping well
-PCOS
-low temperatures
-moodiness, irritability & rage
-tender breasts
-heavy periods
-irregular cycles
-unexplained weight gain
-PMS symptoms 

For women, our hormones play a huge role in our daily lives. Our bodies run on a cycle of hormones that prepare the body for caring a child. Even if this is not our goal, it's the body's focus and we need to be aware of that when it comes to caring for our bodies. Stopping that natural cycle in our body can be detrimental in other areas. So by doing things like using Progessance Plus to make sure we have enough progesterone, taking Master Formula & NingXia Red to make sure our bodies have the tools they need to function, and using EndoFlex oil to balance our hormones- are all great ways to help support the hormone systems in our bodies.

Simply choose an area of health to work on or a lifestyle need that fits your home & family, add the products to your subscription to earn Loyalty Rewards, or place a one time order to get the items you need for better health.




















Another thing that's really important to do is be aware of endocrine disrupters in our life. These are ingredients hidden in personal care products that cause hormone issues. A California study found that the level of toxic chemicals in teenage girls were lowered by 25-45% after only 3 days of switching to fragrance free products! 10,250 ingredients in conventional personal care products are industrial chemicals. In European cosmetics, there are 1,300 ingredients banned. In the US there are 8. The US also has one of the highest rates of hormone issues in women. What does that tell you about our quality standards?

One of the biggest offenders is fragrance. The term fragrance is used to hide proprietary ingredients & trade secret formulas & is defined loosely by the FDA as a “combination of chemicals that gives each perfume, cologne, (or other items) it’s distinct scent” On a product you may see “fragrance” under these terms: fragrance, perfume, parfum, aroma, or essential oil blend. But under FDA guidelines no one is required to disclose what the actual ingredients are. That means ingredients like dyes, solvents, stabilizers, preservatives, and even formaldehyde is allowed to be in your products without you knowing.
