Catherine Edwards Health
Sharing a few of my favorite herbs for common hormonal imbalances: 1. Ashwagandha: Studies suggest ashwagandha’s adaptogenic properties can regulate the body’s stress response, indirectly balancing cortisol. It’s also beneficial for thyroid health. 2. Licorice…
4. Milk Thistle: Milk thistle supports liver function, aiding detoxification and the metabolism of excess estrogen.
5. Spearmint: Studies suggest that spearmint tea can reduce excess testosterone levels, contributing to hormonal balance. It’s particularly useful for managing PCOS symptoms associated with high free testosterone levels.
6. Fenugreek: Fenugreek seed extract has shown efficacy in increasing testosterone levels in women.
7. Berberine: Berberine is a constituent found in various plants, such as coptis, Oregon grape, barberry, and goldenseal. It has been extensively studied for its ability to lower blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes. It reduces insulin resistance, slows carb breakdown in the gut, and promotes beneficial gut bacteria. Berberine can help lower blood sugar and HbA1c.
***Remember, consult your health provider before starting a new herb or supplement.
While herbs can be tremendously helpful, they can’t substitute for poor diet and lifestyle habits. Prioritize the foundations of a balanced diet, sufficient sleep, regular exercise, and effective stress management.
