Are your hormones out of balance?
Does your life feel like a song played badly out of tune?
If so, the problem may have to do with imbalances in your hormones, which are wreaking havoc on your body and mind.
There is one hormone in particular I am going to focus on today, and it could be at the root of your problems.
I will share with you 12 tips you can start using immediately to begin rebalancing your hormones and bring your life back into tune.
But first, ask yourself these questions:
• Do you crave sugar or salt?
• Are you overweight and putting on more and more belly fat?
• If you are a woman, do you have premenstrual syndrome, painful or heavy periods, and a low sex drive?
• Are you depressed? Do you sleep poorly?
• Do you feel tired but wired?
• Do you need coffee to wake up in the morning and a few glasses of wine to calm down at night?
If you answered "yes," your hormones may be out of balance, and you are not alone ...
In fact, this is how most Americans feel because we are living out of harmony with our natural biological rhythms. This is because small molecules in our bodies that we depend on to keep us in balance are running haywire.
These messenger molecules are involved in almost every function of the body, and they are critical to our well-being.
They are our hormones -- messenger molecules of our endocrine system -- and neurotransmitters -- messenger molecules of our brain and nervous system.
Understand how and why these systems get out of balance and you will go a long way toward understanding why Americans are so tired, depressed, and overweight!

Now for today’s blog ...
Most of us are living life completely out of balance. But so many symptoms we come to accept as “normal” are just signs of imbalance – and the type of imbalance that affects almost everyone in our society is hormonal imbalance.
Let me ask you:
• Do you crave sugar or salt?
• Are you overweight and putting on more and more belly fat?
• If you are a woman, do you have premenstrual syndrome or painful or heavy periods?
• Are you depressed?
• Do you sleep poorly?
• Are you less interested in sex?
• Do you have thinning hair, dry skin, and feel sluggish in the mornings?
• Do you feel tired but wired?
• Do you have to drink coffee every morning just to wake up and a few glasses of wine every night just to calm down?
If so, you are not alone. In fact, this is how most Americans feel, because we are living out of harmony with our natural biological rhythms – and our hormones are all over the place.
The hormones that cause the most mental misery are your stress hormones, your thyroid hormone, your sex hormones, and your major blood-sugar control hormone, insulin.
In this blog, I want to teach you about three very common major hormonal imbalances and how you can rebalance these areas of your biochemistry ...
