The Hormone Profile - What's it all about?
FBy Susan J. Gregoire MN, ARNP
Sharon B, age 52, arrived at my LifeWorks Wellness Center office November 2006. She complained of 4 years of menopause fatigue, hot flashes, headaches, loss of libido, sadness and weight gain.
She became "weepy" and her husband, Jim, shared that other efforts to improve Sharon's health issues had ended with disappointing and discouraging results.
So, what is it all about?
Gradually, during one's lifetime, symptoms of hormonal imbalance become more pronounced, and reflect the body's biochemical pathway dysfunctions, which in turn impact hormone levels. The symptoms range from fatigue, to unexplained weight gain, mood swings, sleep deprivation, changes in libido, dry skin, thinning hair, hot flashes, low energy levels and more.
There is much discussion in the news, forums, and chat groups about the best methods to balance female hormones. One method is taking synthetic hormones such as Premarin (pregnant horse urine), Provera, or birth control pills. A second method is taking natural bioidentical hormones. A third method is taking nutritional supplements to support and enhance the biochemical pathway function, which helps to balance and regulate hormone output. Many use a combination of the methods two and three to handle their symptoms.

Could Healthy-Thin help you regain your ideal weight?
Healthy-Thin is an all natural non drug supplement to support healthy weight loss. You may have tried other dietary supplements which claim to help weight loss by only suppressing your appetite or supposedly block cortisol, but have gotten only temporary or no results. This may be because with a complex issue like weight loss targeting only one aspect of it is not sufficient.
Healthy-Thin was engineered with advanced biochemistry that makes it very different from any other weight loss product on the market. The reason Healthy-Thin is so effective is that it targets all aspects of weight loss: from help with lowering appetite, to blood sugar regulation, to mild carb blocking, to ridding the body of excess water, to aid in the elimination of fat stored toxins. This combination combines to help you shed pounds and lose inches safely as part of a whole program of healthy eating and exercise.

Lifeworks success story
I thank the Lord everyday for leading me to Dr. Springer at Lifeworks Wellness Center.
I knew my beautiful little girl was hyperactive when she was about four, but it became apparent when she entered first grade and her teacher was calling everyday. She couldn't sit still, couldn't pay attention, couldn't stop talking, etc. It even went so far as to her being transferred to another class because she was causing so much disruption.

Could you be lead toxic?
There has been recent press about high lead levels in certain toys from fisher price. they have had to recall about 1.5 million plastic preschool toys made in china because their paint may contain too much lead. this recall involves plastic pre-school toys, such as the cookie monster, elmo, dora and big bird.
This recall involves plastic pre-school toys, such as the Cookie Monster, Elmo, Dora and Big Bird, which were manufactured in China and coated with paint that contains excessive amounts of lead.
There may be many other products in our homes, as well as common house dust that have high lead levels that may lead to human illness. The CDC estimates at least 4.4% of children 1-5 years of age, have unsafe levels of lead in their blood. Other organizations report that children with excess lead are seven times more likely to drop out of school, and in their teen years to develop more violent, aggressive behavior. For adults, excess lead may cause irritability, anemia, high blood pressure, impotence, and headaches, or may even lead to more severe illnesses (Coalition to End Childhood Lead Poisoning).

Is there a good program for people with chemical dependencies?
I believe I know of one.
People with substance abuse always suffer from nutritional deficiencies and toxicities in addition the substances that they abuse, no matter if that is alcohol or some illegal or prescription drug. Many facilities that deal with these people are ineffective in that as many as 75% revert to their habits soon after they finish their programs. I believe that one of the factors in this high rate of recidivism is that attention is not paid to the underlying deficiencies present which contributed to the problem in the first place.
