Hormone are chemical messengers throughout the body to carry out certain things such as growth and development, metabolism, reproduction and even your mood and brain function.  There are different stages of hormones so it is not just an age related problem.  Some signs you have a hormone imbalance are fatigue, brain fog, gain weight (belly fat), sleep problems and mood.  Blood work with your normal doctor might appear normal but they do not consider everything such as age or gender.  A healthy lifestyle is the best medicine this includes a healthy diet, getting good sleep, exercise and managing your stress.  A healthy diet should consist of a protein, healthy fats and limit sugar.  Carbs are innocent; you just need to understand what is a good carb and bad.  In addition, portion size is also important, portion sizes have gotten a lot bigger over the years.
