“A majority of people are overfed but undernourished - eating a lot of calories but not consuming essential nutrients.” - Lacey Dunn
When it comes to hormones, diet, and lifestyle are huge contributing factors that are often downplayed in conventional medicine. The chronic stress and inadequate nutrition many of us experience create signals in our bodies that can wreak havoc on hormone production.
