Estrogen dominance can be very common, and despite knowing the signs and symptoms of this condition, you should also know what to do if you are suffering from it.

Yet, before we reveal one effective and simple protocol to help you balance your hormones, we will list the 10 most common symptoms of estrogen dominance:

1. Abnormal menstrual periods
2. Low libido
3. Fatigue
4. Bad PMS (breast tenderness/swelling, mood swings, and headaches)
5. Hair loss
6. Weight gain (especially hips and abs)
7. Brain fog
8. Trouble sleeping
9. Thyroid dysfunction
10. Sluggish metabolism

Here are the steps you should follow in order to restore the healthy hormonal balance in the body:

Step 1: Eliminate Xenoestrogens

Nowadays, we are constantly being exposed to various chemicals, and one of them is “xenoestrogen,” which can mimic estrogen in the body. Therefore, in order to avoid these adverse effects, you should avoid the use of the following top offenders:

• Plastic Tupperware
• Plastic water bottles
• BPA cans
• Cosmetics, makeup, and toiletries
• Tap water
• Non-organic dairy, produce
• Soy protein isolate
• Dryer sheets
• Birth control pill

Step 2: Efficient Elimination

This step is essential as it will ensure the removal of estrogen, and prevent its re-entrance into the bloodstream in the case of chronic constipation. Therefore, make sure you are having daily bowel movements, and in case you are not:

• Drink 2-3L of water daily
• Increase the intake of fiber-rich foods
• Increase the intake of vegetables with every meal
• Consume probiotics such as kefir, yogurt, miso, tempeh
• To promote bowel movements, supplement with magnesium citrate or Triphala

Estrogen is effectively removed by a well-functioning liver. In the first stage, the liver turns harmful estrogen intro milder, weaker forms of estrogen, and in the second stage, it converts it into a water-soluble form, so you can eliminate it through the stool or urine.

Yet, the liver won’t be able to fulfill its function if the body lacks important nutrients, or it is overburdened with other chemicals, accumulated due to the use of processed foods, drugs, and alcohol.

To support the function of the liver, you should”

• Drink lots of filtrated water
• Do not drink alcohol
• Each a real, whole-foods based diet
• Avoid overeating
• Eat foods that support liver health, such as kale, dandelion greens, beets, garlic, eggs, dark leafy greens, artichoke, onions, leeks, shallots, broccoli, cabbage, Brussels sprouts, etc.)
• Take B-vitamins (in particular, B6, B12 and Folic Acid), as well as some hormone balancing formula that contains one or all of the following: DIM, Calcium-D-Glucarate, Indole-3-Carbinol, sulforaphane
• Supplement with botanicals that improve the function of the liver, like rosemary, burdock, red clover, barberry, milk thistle, dandelion root, Oregon grape root, gentian, licorice, ginger, wild yam.

Furthermore, in order to kick start your metabolism and improve your overall healthy by detoxifying and energizing the body, you should try some effective detox program, using medicinal herbs that are made using 100% USDA organic ingredients and also laxative-free, such as dandelion root, milk thistle seed (to improve detoxification of the liver), yerba mate and matcha ( to energize the body), or valerian root and passion flower to relax, and soothe anxious thoughts.

Relationships need investment. Not only to build, but to last as well.

Don’t you feel that you’re in a constant rush and anxiety in this modern world? You’re connected on the Internet 24/7, but are you truly connected to your partner 24/7 as well?

The last thing and the first thing you do in the day, should be a sign of devotion to your partner, if you want a long -lasting relationship.

Here are some advices to achieve that, or to bring it back, if you lost it somewhere on the road.

Forget about work and problems at the office

It’s normal to discuss work and annoying colleagues and bosses, but you have to know when to stop. And checking the e-mail from work can definitely wait until the morning coffee!

Go to bed at the same time

This shows that you or your partner respect each other’s tiredness and obligations during the day. A nice hug for the ending of a long day is the most precious gift you can’t buy with money. It also helps maintaining the intimacy in the relationship.

No distractions in the bed

Turn the phones volume off. Set the alarm and ditch it somewhere further from your sight and hands.

Have a routine together

Like, watching an episode of your show, washing teeth together, sharing a hot shower together, or walking your dog. Those late night jokes and smiles when the tension of the day is gone are priceless!

Never argue before going to bed

If you sense an argue developing, run away from the fight, change the subject or cool it down. Going to bed angry is unhealthy for you and your dreams and rest, not to talk about being bitter in the start of a new day as well.

Keep the bedroom child-free

The psychologist Michael Viner-Davis claims that “the only time you can let your children sleep in your bed is when they have a nightmare. At all other times, your bedroom should be your private space. You need to have that space for the 2 of you to maintain your intimacy”.

Don’t drink alcohol before going to bed

Though alcohol makes you sleep heavy, that’s really not “the good sleep” you want to have, because the body will first recover from the alcohol, than later, really rest and sleep. That will make you annoyed in the morning. Also, heavy sleeping is regularly “partnered” by snoring – a habit that’s not really pleasant for your partner in bed.

Massage before bed time

There’s not much needed to be said here. A massage is the ultimate relaxation, such as a hot shower…plus, those intimate touches may lead somewhere else…

Hugs, kisses and spreading the love

This is the best habit to end the day with. Everyone struggles with immense stress and uncomfortable situations during their day, so hearing the love words, feeling the gentle kisses and really feeling you belong somewhere and you’re being taken care of, is the thing worth living for.

5. The color of your underwear

Should always match the color of the blouse, skirt or pants you’re wearing. Unless you want to create an effect with wearing a red bra under a visible black crochet blouse… however, for everyday occasions, just stick with this advice.
