The Causes of Hormone Imbalance
- Stress
- Diet: Sugar, caffeine, alcohol, carbohydrates, and poor nutrition
- Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)
- Drugs: Cortisone, anti-inflammatory drugs, glucose regulating drugs such as insulin, synthetic and natural hormone replacement, antibiotics, high blood pressure medicnes, etc.
- Dental Issues: Every tooth has an endocrine relationship. Dental material that is not biocompatible can be the source of hormone issues.
- Scar Tissue: Energy flow blockages along acupuncture meridians can develop.
- Environment: Exposure to pesticides, radiation, mercury, lead, or any toxin.
- Autonomic Nervous System: Causes can be structural, electromagnetic, chemical, or emotional.
Hormone Replacement Therapy: Important FACTS
Before and after test results reveal that synthetic, natural and bio-identical compounded hormones cause many problems:
- The body shuts down production of its own natural hormones
- A dependence on the replacement hormones develops, aging the body
- Toxicity burdens the entire body including the liver, kidneys, blood and the immune system
- Hormone levels become toxic
- Hormone levels become elevated affecting cortisol levels
More Dangers of Hormone Usage!
Since there are many causes of endocrine breakdown, using hormones will cover up or camouflage the true case which could also be life threatening.
The Dangers of Hormone Replacement Therapy
HRT is based on an incorrect assumption: Hormone replacement therapy (HRT), whether natural or synthetic, is based on the incorrect assumption that your body becomes incapable of producing appropriate amounts of hormones simply because we reach a certain age. Your body does alter its hormone production as you pass through the stages of your life, but hormone problems are a function of how healthy you are, not how old you are. This myopic viewpoint has cased thousands of deaths from cancer.
Natural hormone usage has grown since synthetic HRT has been deemed toxic and a potential cancer risk. Millions of women are now using synthetic, natural "plant-derived" and synthesized "bio-identical" hormones. The problem for the consumer is education about product safety. Natural progesterone, estrogen, and wild yam creams can cause an extreme toxicity in hormone levels as seen in over 1000 saliva tests (Traditional Chinese Medicine) before and after. Therefore, if a woman's normal progesterone range is 100 and she is using a progesterone cream, the level may jump to 6,500 and become a toxic burden to the liver and immune system.
Any hormone replacement, whether it is natural or synthetic, actually causes the body to slow down the production of its own natural hormones, including melatonin, DHEA, progesterone and human growth hormone. HRT does not treat the cause of any problem, it only addresses and perpetuates the symptoms.
