The Nutritional, Functional Diagnostic Approach

To manage female endocrine disorders many women use the conventional treatment of synthetic hormones, strong anti inflammatory medication and surgery. This often brings unwelcome side effects. At certain times such treatment may be necessary however there is another way to approach the management of female hormonal problems. It is a holistic one which looks at the interrelation of body systems. It can be combined with conventional treatment plans however, as the body begins to function correctly, many clients find the need for medication and surgery is greatly reduced.

Each new client I see has a unique story however there are some common questions that I will be asking.

• What components of the diet contribute to the progression of the disease?
• What environmental factors contribute to the progression of symptoms?
• Is the bowel eliminating waste correctly to prevent the recirculation of hormones?
• Is the bowel flora balanced to prevent the creation of damaging hormonal metabolites?
• Is the liver functioning optimally for the detoxification of hormones?
• Is the body provided with the correct nutrients to produce balanced hormonal levels, a balance inflammatory response and optimal energy levels?
• Is stress affecting the function of the endocrine system?

Your doctor or consultant may not have talked to you about these factors and I am here to offer additional individualised support. Please call and we can have a no obligation talk to see if nutritional therapy is one way of helping yourself.
