Hormones and Energy

To Health With That! MTHFR Mutations.

Sex hormones have a lot to do with how energetic you feel, or how sleepy, or how grumpy. So, let's talk about how estrogen ties into sleep, weight, and metabolism. How progesterone helps insomnia and gets stolen by stress hormones. Also, how testosterone is a feel-good chemical. We'll also talk about xenoestrogens, which come from outside your body, and how to reduce estrogen, boost progesterone and testosterone, and generally find hormone balance. 00:00 - intro 00:29 - What sex hormones do 00:59 - Estrogen and metabolism 01:40 - Estrogen dominance 02:03 - Xenoestrogens (estrogen from chemicals) 02:25 - Two ways to manage estrogen levels 02:30 - Avoid estrogen from chemicals 03:43 - Detoxify estrogen better 03:53 - Estrogen detox needs good methylation 05:00 - Progesterone, sleep, and stress 06:25 - Testosterone and wellbeing 07:04 - High estrogen causes low testosterone 07:48 - Men need weight bearing exercise 08:02 - Losing weight leads to estrogen spikes 08:20 - Supplements for Testosterone 08:38 - Energy changes in menstrual cycle 09:26 - The bottom line GENETIC ROCKSTARS (an MTHFR community): community.tohealthwiththat.com FREE COURSE: MTHFR Basics: https://courses.tohealthwiththat.com/p/mthfr-basics WORK WITH DR.
