Preservation of Youth through Bioidentical Hormone Replacement, Anti-oxidants and Lifestyle Modification.

Are you tired of feeling old? Maybe your hormones need a pick me up. As we age many of the naturally occurring hormones become deplete in our bodies.

The female hormones, estrogen and progesterone, the male hormone testosterone, thyroid hormones for metabolism, adrenal hormones for stress and inflammation all can be supported through supplementation or prescription medication.

Americans are living longer than ever before. Life expectancies at both age 65 and age 85 have increased. Under current mortality conditions, people who survive to age 65 can expect to live an average of 18.5 more years. As we age, quality of life, ability to function, and prevention of disease become more important

Risk of heart disease in woman after menopause is greater than that of men. Supporting female hormones can prevent the symptoms associated with menopause like hot flashes, low libido, bone loss,  and poor concentration, to name a few.

Men after age 45 begin to decrease their male hormone Testosterone and can have symptoms of fatigue, muscle loss, loss of libido, and moodiness. the typical grumpy old man, is usually testosterone deficient, and other disease processes such as diabetes and under active thyroid and can compound the situation.

Under active thyroid can produce symptoms of sluggishness, weight gain, swelling, constipation. most people feel better with optimal thyroid function.

Low adrenal function is associated with poor response to stress and inability to reduce inflammation throughout the body.
