Hormones..the rollercoaster ride of teen age years returns

Hormones ....we often underestimate the importance of these chemical messengers, like signposts directing our bodies functions every minute of the day. Perimenopause is their time in the limelight when they really show us their power 💥 ​

Oestrogen, progesterone and testosterone are the key ones at this stage and when the levels change that's when the symptoms kick in and whilst our bodies are designed to handle this change in hormones, lifestyle factors can make this natural transition harder. Also as we age we tend to be more nutritionally depleted and our absorption of key nutrients is not what is was when we are younger...all of this leads to the importance of a healthy lifestyle, keeping a eye on your eight, incorporating relaxation habit's and being socially active.
