5 Ways to Control Your Weight Through Perimenopause — and Beyond
Hormonal shifts that occur during perimenopause can make it hard to maintain a healthy weight. Here are five strategies to manage your weight through this phase and beyond.
Hormone Balance
Hormone imbalance may manifest differently depending on your age as well as environmental exposures. Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is an extremely common intervention, but it has its own risks to health and may apiculate other cellular and hormonal functions in the body that can negatively impact mood, cognition and sleep.

Natural ways to balance your hormones include:
1. Eating clean-avoiding sugars, processed foods and antigenic food items including gluten and dairy which can increase overall inflammatory burden as well as toxic load.
2. Watch your alcohol intake-avoiding alcoholic beverages or limiting their use.
3. Use nontoxic personal care products- log onto www.ewg.org and take a look at their Skin-Deep clean beauty recommendations for nontoxic cosmetic and personal care products.

Filter you are drinking water-at ARA Integrative and Functional Medicine in Glen Mills, Pennsylvania we are able to test you for specific metals and environmental exposures that may be causing your chronic health conditions.
