6 tips to balance your hormones

 Hormones; they play an important role in how our body and mind function, but how they work is quite complicated. They influence our mood, sleep, immune system, concentration, libido and temperature, among other things. Sometimes they are not in balance and you notice that. HetkanWEL gives you some tips to change this. How do hormones work Hormones are so-called signal substances, which are produced in different places in your body. They are released by your glands, such as the thyroid gland, the pituitary gland, the pancreas, ovaries or testes, and reach your cells or organs through your bloodstream. In this way they help to keep the chemical levels in our blood in balance. All these processes in your brain are controlled by the hypothalamus, supported by the pituitary gland, and together influence the functioning of your body.https://youtu.be/dGop2ieHawI

Hormones in balance If your hormones are not in balance, you can be quite bothered by that. Just think of mood swings, irritated skin, weight gain, hot flashes, bloating, cotton wool in your head and much more. With these 6 tips you can help your body a bit.,

 1. Stimulate your blood circulation If your hormones are not in balance, it helps to stimulate your blood circulation with a massage. It is most effective to have it done by a specialist, but it also helps if you do it yourself. For example with a bloated belly, or a migraine. 

2. Eat more protein and B vitamins Ideal is to eat 20 to 30 grams of protein with each meal. You can choose vegetable protein or eggs, if you eat them. Protein lowers the amount of insulin and ghrelin (the hormone that makes you feel hungry) in your blood and makes you feel fewer peaks. Vitamin B also helps you feel in balance. You can find this in animal products and seaweed, or of course in supplements.

3. Do breathing exercises Your emotions and your hormones are interconnected. Emotions, such as fear, frustration, anger or nervousness, create extra hormones and too much of it can have a negative effect on your health. Breathing exercises make it easier to control your emotions, which has a good effect on your health. 

4. Try to eat organic Many of our foods contain substances that have a negative effect on our hormone balance. Think of pesticides, growth hormones, or fertilizers. Your body gets confused by these synthetic substances and hormones. Eating organic food helps to keep your body in balance. 

5. Detox in the bath A bath with special salt can help you get your hormones in balance. This bath increases the amount of magnesium in your body, it increases the sulfate and lowers your stress hormones. Magnesium calms your nerves and muscles and helps you sleep better. You don't necessarily have to bathe for it, as it also helps eat leafy greens, beans, and seeds. 6. Eat or drink herbs and use essential oils There are several herbs that can get your hormones in balance. Essential oils can also help you fall asleep (lavender), hair loss (thyme), or to promote your metabolism (fennel oil). Depending on your complaints, you can look for the right oil or herbs.
