Between my one-on-one clients and my Skype sessions, there is one question that comes up in my office over and over and over again.\u00a0Even after going through the diet and the supplements, everyone wants to know:\u00a0\u201cWhat can I do right now (to help my hormones)?\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Over the course of years (by years, I mean the 13 that I\u2019ve been in practice\u2014eeeeks where has the time gone?), I\u2019ve come up with one simple habit that can make all the difference in your hormones.<\/p>\n

A Bit of Background Before We Start<\/strong><\/p>\n

When the \u201ch-word\u201d comes up, it\u2019s really tempting to put all the attention on the thyroid gland. Some may say the thyroid\u2019s a movie star of sorts when it comes to the endocrine system for two reasons:<\/p>\n

1. It\u2019s easy to test.<\/p>\n

By test, I mean that blood tests are routinely used to check thyroid status, even if they\u2019re not foolproof.<\/p>\n

2. It\u2019s easy to treat.<\/p>\n

There are meds that are easily prescribed to deal with thyroid concerns even though the meds might not be the answer for you. Even with this sort of \u201cstar power,\u201d you need to understand that your thyroid is not your endocrine system.<\/p>\n

Ahem\u2026.did you get that?\u00a0Your thyroid is NOT your endocrine system.<\/p>\n

In fact, there are eight glands in all that make up your endocrine system and four that are the big players.\u00a0I call them the Four Corners of Your Endocrine House. They are the pituitary, thyroid, adrenals, and the ovaries in childbearing women or the pancreas in menopausal ladies. If you want to be the master of your \u201cEndocrine House,\u201d then all four of these glands need to be communicating in a healthy way. In particular, the relationship between the adrenal glands and thyroid is muy importante (note: too much cortisol depresses thyroid function in a snap).<\/p>\n
