The best 'hormone stack' recommendations


Hormone Stacks That Get Results

You’ve googled, youtubed, tik tok’d and experimented your way through hormone challenges.

You have been on a emotional rollercoaster. You have been there, done that....but now it is time to level up and do things that actually work. (we have helped 500+ women through this process)

✨️Minerals (and we'll never stop repeating this). Minerals are spark plugs for the cells and run the body. They help your thyroid, energy, digestion, skin, and hormones.

➡️ Mineral Mocktails

➡️ Roots and fruits

➡️ Include animal proteins to help with bioavailable minerals

✨️ Sleep: there are soo many options to help with improving your circadian rhythms. This is the most underrated hormone stack but it works!

➡️ Blue light blocking glasses and bulbs

➡️ Consistent sleep/wake times

➡️ Apps to block your blue light on your phones

✨️Nervous system support (aka stop leading with stress hormones). It's impossible to calm the hormone chaos when stress is in the driver seat.

➡️Minerals (obvi)

➡️Eat breakfast before caffeine & eat within 1 hr of waking

➡️Ensure you are eating enough food

➡️Adequate protein

✨️Gut: Our gut changes through perimenopause and beyond. And we aren't talking about restrictive "gut protocols" or removing gluten and dairy from your diet.

➡️Daily poops - if this isn't happening you must address it first

➡️Gallbladder/liver support

➡️Support stomach acid

✨️Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)

➡️Explore HRT - not every one of you will choose HRT but you deserve the discussion

➡️HRT education (join our next Peri to Post call)

➡️ Work with an HRT literate practitioner

HTMA (Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis) is so integral to your hormone journey which is why we offer it as a stand alone test. And this is a simple tests your doc will not order or health insurance will not cover because they don't see how elevated iron in the tissues can lead to increased oxidation and hormone chaos. You deserve better!

Let's roll up our sleeves and get to work!
