How Do I Support My Hormones While Losing Weight?
Hormones aren’t just about periods or menopause—they affect everything from energy and appetite to mood and metabolism. So when you're trying to lose weight, keeping them balanced is key. And if they’re out of sync, your weight loss journey might feel harder than it needs to.
What Happens to Hormones During Weight Loss?
🔹 Estrogen and Testosterone Shifts: As body fat changes, so do your sex hormones. This can impact how your body stores fat, builds muscle, and even how you feel emotionally.
🔹 Stress and Cortisol: Dieting, intense workouts, or fast weight loss can increase cortisol, the stress hormone—which may lead to weight retention.
🔹 Thyroid Function: Your thyroid helps regulate metabolism. Any imbalance can lead to fatigue, weight gain, or plateaus.
Natural Ways to Support Hormones
✅ DIM (Diindolylmethane): A plant compound that supports healthy estrogen metabolism—especially helpful for those with estrogen dominance.
✅ Omega-3s: Anti-inflammatory fats that support brain function, hormone production, and overall balance.
✅ Vitamin D: Crucial for hormone health, immune function, and even mood support.
✅ Adaptogens (like Ashwagandha): Help your body manage stress and maintain a more balanced cortisol level.
