THE GUT-HORMONE CONNECTION – OVERCOMING ESTROGEN DOMINANCE
There is a silent epidemic – estrogen dominance – effecting women in their mid30’s on up, yet it is completely overlooked in main stream medicine. Women are experiencing, at an alarming rate, such symptoms as fibrocystic breast, fibroids, thyroid nodules, PMS, heavy and painful periods, infertility, miscarriages, insomnia, fatigue, bloating and weight gain (especially in the hip, butt and thighs), mood swing, brain fog and unfortunately breast, uterine and ovarian cancers. The solution is not treating the symptoms with medications or surgery. Join Dr. June as she shares the true solution – straight from her new book! Restoring liver, gallbladder and microbiome function is key to maximizing estrogen detoxification and hormone balance the way nature intended it to be.
