What's New:
What are natural hormones? Bio-identical hormones are made from either soybean extract bete sitosterol, or diosgenin extracted from Mexican wild yams. Hormones derived from plant became known as natural or bio-identical. Human hormones are made from cholesterol in the body. It is yet to be determined if plant hormones are identical to human hormones. Plant-derived hormones may be safer than horse hormones but they are not without risk. In most cases, a good starting point for a woman with menopausal or hormonal problems would be a diet high in whole foods with the elimination of wheat, lots of pure water, plenty of weight bearing exercise, and a protocol of whole-food phytonutrients and tissue extracts.
