Hormonal detoxification by Louise, naturopath

1/ Hello Louise, can you explain your background in two words?

I have always given importance to treating oneself naturally without systematically resorting to medication, but it was especially when I myself had a major health problem (an autoimmune disorder) that I realized the major impact on my health of my diet, my sleep, my stress management and my emotions... It was from that moment that I decided to train in naturopathy, this holistic natural medicine which integrates all these parameters to support our health.

2/ What do you see as the major current trend in naturopathy?

The majority of women who come to see me very regularly mention hormonal imbalances ( premenstrual syndrome, acne , endometriosis, polycystic ovarian syndrome , etc.) and for which they are looking for natural and more comprehensive support.
Estrogen dominance (estrogen > progesterone imbalance) is very common.
There are also more and more young women who are concerned about understanding their cycles and who do not systematically wish to take hormonal contraception. They are concerned about the impact that synthetic hormones can have on their health, their libido... and that they can also mask hormonal imbalances that are present at the outset.
Also, there are often women who come for support around menopause , a period of real "hormonal storm" which is not always well experienced...

Hormonal contraception

3/ Why do you think there are more and more hormonal imbalances, particularly estrogen-dominant ones?

Hormonal imbalances are indeed becoming more and more frequent because many environmental and physiological factors influence and disrupt it.
There is a close connection between our nervous system and our hormonal system. Stress and anxiety experienced in an intense and chronic manner can seriously disrupt the delicate balance of hormones.
There are also other factors such as water pollution, endocrine disruptors, deficiencies in certain micronutrients (zinc, B vitamins, selenium, etc.) but also because of our liver. A true "decontamination factory" of our body, it plays a major role in the breakdown of circulating estrogens. Often overloaded by an excess of toxins, it can no longer properly transform estrogens and allow our body to eliminate them. Proper liver detoxification can then help maintain the delicate balance between estrogen and progesterone.

4/ What do you systematically advise in these cases?

First of all, dietary advice : qualitative nutritional intake, source of good fats, vitamins, minerals and trace elements...
I also offer advice (breathing exercises, plants, micronutrient cure, etc.) to help manage stress and anxiety, which, as we saw above, works closely with the hormonal system.
I also regularly offer a liver detoxification program to relieve the liver and help with estrogen balance. Desmodium , Rosemary , Artichoke and Chrysenthellum Americanum are, for example, excellent detoxifying plants!

Hormonal detox

5/ And what happens in our body during menopause?

We think that menopause only consists of a gradual drop in hormone levels, but very often, it is a time of hormonal storm : as we approach menopause , we alternate between phases of significant secretions and sudden drops in our hormones. This is really the time to give the body the means to self-regulate by promoting in particular good detoxification of the liver so that it can properly degrade and regulate our hormones.

6/ How long does it take to feel an effect after a naturopathy session?

I generally recommend treatments based on 3 cycles (approximately 3 months) because the hormonal system is a rather slow system and must be renewed 1 to 2 times a year . But for each woman, the reaction and regulation time may vary.
In any case, it cannot be immediate because it is an approach which aims to strengthen the terrain, to help the body find homeostasis, this general state of balance.

    Bonjour,

    Je suis maintenant ménopausée, j’ai 49 ans, et ce depuis 2 ans et demi. Je fais l’hormonothérapie bio-identique (promethium et estrogel). J’ai dû changer l’estrogel pour une autre formule qui est dosée avec les 2 sortes d’œstrogènes (estradiol et estriol). Depuis 2 ans, nous n’arrivons pas à trouver la dose qui me convienne. Je pense à tout laisser tomber, j’en ai un peu marre de ne pas trouver ce qui est bien pour moi. Est-ce que vous croyez que vos produits pourraient m’aider et laisser tomber l’hormonothérapie définitivement?

    Y a-t-il des points de ventes au Québec, car j’y habite?

    Merci

Œstrogène et Alimentation : Comment les aliments peuvent équilibrer vos hormones ?

Estrogen and Diet: How can food balance your hormones ?

Estrogens are essential hormones for women's health. They play an important role in the menstrual cycle , fertility, and overall well-being. These hormones influence not only physical health, by regulating bone and cardiovascular health, but also mental health, by modulating neurotransmitters such as serotonin and dopamine , which directly impact mood and pleasure.

Diet is a key element in maintaining optimal hormonal balance. Certain foods, rich in phytoestrogens , can help to naturally regulate estrogen levels, particularly during periods of hormonal fluctuations such as the menstrual cycle or menopause.

In cases of hot flashes or menstrual irregularities, adopting a suitable diet can offer a natural solution to alleviate these symptoms. Phytoestrogens , found in foods such as soy and flax seeds , work by mimicking the effects of natural estrogen. They thus help reduce hormonal imbalances and improve quality of life.

Quel rôle joue le magnésium dans le métabolisme et la prise de poids ?

What role does magnesium play in metabolism and weight gain ?

Magnesium is an essential mineral that plays a key role in energy metabolism and weight management. By facilitating the conversion of carbohydrates and fats into energy, it not only helps boost your metabolism , but also supports healthy and sustainable weight loss.

A magnesium deficiency can slow down this process, cause fatigue, increase stress and thus promote weight gain. By regulating the feeling of satiety and limiting the desire to snack, magnesium also acts on eating behaviors , which makes it a valuable ally for those who wish to lose weight or maintain their weight.

Therefore, understanding the role of magnesium in metabolism and weight loss is fundamental to optimizing your health and slimness.
