Hormone Regulation Lifestyle Tips
While innovative medications like injections offer powerful therapy, supporting overall wellness through nutrition, activity levels, stress reduction, and other key lifestyle factors greatly magnifies results.
Our clinicians at Human Antiaging Center provide patients these essential regulation tips:
Diet: Consume anti-inflammatory prebiotic and probiotic foods to balance gut flora, enhancing hormone and immune function. These include fermented items like kimchi, sauerkraut, kefir, and unsweetened yogurt. Reduce intake of sugar, refined carbs, and industrial seed oils. Prioritize high-quality fats, protein, and green vegetables instead. Stay hydrated by drinking purified water and herbal teas.
Exercise: Incorporate both resistance training to build lean muscle mass and increase basal metabolic rate as well as steady moderate cardio for optimal circulation, blood sugar balance, and fat burning. Even light walking daily provides big benefits.
Sleep: Getting 7-9 hours nightly enables critical hormone replenishment and cellular repair to occur. Sustain healthy circadian rhythms by avoiding bright lights and digital screens at least 1 hour before bedtime.
Stress Relief: Chronic elevated cortisol disrupts optimal hormone function and accelerates aging. Regularly practice calming activities like deep breathing, meditation, yoga, forest bathing in nature, or float therapy to counter excessive demands of modern life with relaxation.
Community: Nurturing personal relationships and meaningfully engaging with community provides a sense of purpose essential for sustaining mental health and satisfaction long-term.
