Working out too hard can be counterproductive‼️

I often hear patients say a good workout relieves excess stress. That's because exercise reduces cortisol - the stress hormone.
💥Too much cortisol and you become insulin resistant and store belly fat.
💥Too much cortisol also makes you crave sugar and carbs and seek comfort food. 👎

Excessive stress can actually cause blood sugar levels to rise due to an increased release of the “stress hormone”.
You’re probably already aware that there are literally dozens of benefits associated with exercising, it manages blood sugar in more than one way. Short-term exercise helps cells in your muscles to take up more glucose in order to use it for energy and tissue repair, therefore lowering blood sugar in the process. Long-term exercise also makes cells more responsive to insulin and helps prevent resistance.
Running, cycling, swimming and lifting weights is also a simple, beneficial way to lower inflammation, manage stress, improve immunity and balance hormones. Insulin sensitivity is increased, so your cells are better able to use any available insulin to take up glucose during and after activity. 👌

Easy ways to Balance your Hormones

Hormones are messenger molecules that must work in perfect harmony to have good health. Your liver has a crucial role in producing, synthesizing and excreting hormones effectively in your body.

First and foremost, it’s important to know that foods, supplements, and personal hygiene products you are using that could be fueling the fire creating hormonal imbalances, from what you eat to what you slather on your skin everyday. By removing chemical exposure you are reducing your intake of endocrine(hormonal) disruptors, this includes alcohol and caffeine.

Nutrition is key. It’s important to replenishing your system with a rich variety of whole foods, specially cruciferous vegetables full of polyphonous (antioxidants) to have a good hormonal balance.

Sleep healing. While the body appears from the outside to be still and inactive, sleep is a time when the body is quite busy. During the night, we restock our supply of hormones, process significant toxins, repair damaged tissue, generate vital white blood cells for immunity, eliminate the effects of stress, and process heavy emotions.

Manage Stress.

Epigenetics studies and proofs how behavior and enviroment affect our gene expression through our lives and generations.

Gene expression tell our cells what to do, but our genes have to be activated (trigger).
Generally, specially in terms of illness we are not what we inheret, we are what we express.
For example: Identical twins born with the exact same genome, but environment activated to develope disease one more than the other.

All our CHOICES inform the body which genes to express.

Crap food, stress and toxins are the culprits of illness, being the triggers of our gene expression.
