This year was my first full year blogging to share recipes and healthy tips for a more balanced lifestyle. In my daily practice I enjoy sharing these types of recipes and concepts with my patients and have found this blog to be a creative way to share my insights with a larger audience.

In 2014 I look forward to sharing more in depth information about the core of my practice (women’s health and autoimmune diseases) while providing health tips and recipes that everyone can use to promote their own wellness.

I also have created several Pinterest boards for different topics such as vegan recipes, women’s health, dairy free recipes, gluten free recipes. To follow me on Pinterest search for the Pinner ADT3877.

Fiber helps to regulate levels of estrogen, progesterone and testosterone in multiple ways involving your digestive tract, liver, ovaries and blood circulation. Multiple symptoms and medical conditions are the result of hormone imbalances: PMS symptoms such as breast tenderness, mood changes, headaches and bloating are worse if you don’t have enough progesterone to offset estrogen. Acne and unwanted facial hair can be caused by too much testosterone in your system. Peri-menopause symptoms like heavier menstrual bleeding, shorter menstrual cycles and spotting between periods can be the result of an imbalance between estrogen, progesterone and testosterone.
