Natural Hormone Replacement Therapy


hormone our bodies make, and not synthetic ones made by the pharmaceutical industry, which can be harmful as well as helpful. With replacement, patients report an increase in their psy-


N


chological well being. PMS symptoms can be resolved, not uncommonly, in weeks. The medical benefits are a decrease in cardiac disease, vascular disease, strokes, diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, and even cancers. Because our goal is to return hormone levels to an optimal range, we test the following for any deficiencies: Thyroid hormone, which regulates temperature, metabo-


lism, cerebral function, and energy levels. It can protect against cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer's disease, memory loss, fatigue and weight gain. DHEA, which stimulates the immune system, can restore


sexual vitality, improves moods, and decreases cholesterol and body fat. It improves memory, increases energy, and has anti- cancer properties by enhancing the immune system. Melatonin, which influences the quality and quantity of


sleep, is also an energizer, a mood enhancer, and an antioxidant. It has also been shown to decrease the incidence of nocturia (getting up at night to urinate). Estrogen, has been proven to reduce the effects of heart


disease, stroke, high cholesterol, Alzheimer's disease, memory loss, menopausal symptoms, osteoporosis, skin thinning, the incidence of depression, and reverse the lack of libido. Progesterone, which acts as an antidepressant, mild tranquil-


izer, and natural painkiller. Bioidentical progesterone can elimi- nate symptoms of menopause, PMS emotional instability, headaches, and mood swings. Testosterone, which drops significantly in men over age 50.


This lowered level accounts for a loss of a man's sense of well- being, decrease in decrease in sex drive, loss of general muscle mass, increased abdominal obesity, osteoporosis, decrease in mental acuity, and decreased strength and endurance. And, yes, testosterone levels should be tested in women, as well. Testos- terone therapy can reverse the gradual sexual apathy that occurs over time, while also increasing energy, and strength.

Note: Since Lemon oil is photosenstive, it’s recommended not to put it on skin before heading outdoors, so do not apply directly to skin.


Frankincense All the time spent in the sun can make your skin appear tired


and dry. Add a drop of Frankincense oil to your facial moistur- izer to give skin an extra boost of moisture.


Palmarosa This powerful skin soother is great to cool and soothe the


skin after a long day outdoors. It helps reduce redness and puffiness of the skin as well!


Aromatherapy Applications for the Summer Aloe vera gel is simply the best carrier or base for after sun


and sunburn applications. It goes on smoothly and cools the skin. It actually feels cool. While it is readily absorbed, it leaves a very light residue that continues to sooth the skin. Spritzes or sprays are a terrific way to cool down on a hot


day or to get immediate relief from insect bites and stings. Es- sential oils can be added to distilled or pure water in the proper dilution. Since essential oils and water don’t mix well, make sure to shake the mixture before using. Spritzes are great for light, non-sticky insect repellent and sun exposure relief. As a wonder- ful alternative to water, use hydrosols as the base and benefit from their additional therapeutic properties. For example, use clary sage, peppermint and spearmint hydrosols for cooling. Make sure that you use hydrosols and not floral water. Looking for recipes? Look no further!
