By [Your Name]
In a world where wellness advice can be overwhelming, nurse and hormone health coach Allie Janszen is stepping into the spotlight with crucial insights tailored for women over 30. Having personally shed 80 pounds through natural methods, Janszen is dedicated to helping others navigate their weight loss journey. She recently took to social media to unveil "15 unpopular but undeniable hormone health truths" that every woman in their 30s and beyond needs to know.
The Journey Begins
Janszen’s personal journey is a testament to the power of informed choices. She emphasizes, “Every woman in their 30s and beyond needs to know these.” Among her findings, numerous revelations stand out, transforming conventional wisdom about health and wellness.
Coffee Isn’t Breakfast
One of Janszen’s first pieces of advice may raise eyebrows: coffee shouldn’t be considered breakfast. “Starting your day with caffeine on an empty stomach spikes cortisol and crashes your blood sugar,” she explains, advocating instead for a balanced morning meal.
The Importance of Sleep
Sleep, often overlooked in the weight loss equation, is heralded as a “fat loss superpower.” Poor sleep not only fuels cravings but also disrupts hormonal balance and stalls metabolism. Janszen insists that prioritizing rest is non-negotiable for any weight loss strategy.
Gut Health Matters
According to Janszen, gut health is synonymous with hormone health. “If your gut is inflamed or sluggish, your hormones will be too,” she warns. Hence, nurturing gut health should be a top priority.
Vitamin D and Movement
She highlights the critical role of vitamin D, calling sunshine “medicine” that regulates thousands of genes and supports overall health. Movement is equally crucial, with Janszen advocating various activities to promote lymphatic drainage and reduce stress, including walking, rebounding, and dry brushing.
Maintain Balance
Janszen stresses the importance of destressing and managing hormones effectively, noting that chronic stress interferes with fat loss, digestion, and recovery. She also draws attention to the need for essential minerals to support thyroid function, urging women to stay vigilant about elevated estrogen levels.
Be Mindful of Your Cycle
Understanding one’s body and energy fluctuations throughout the menstrual cycle can be empowering, Janszen asserts. “Your energy should change with your cycle,” she says, cautioning against intense training during the luteal phase to avoid setbacks.
Hydration and Detox
While hydration is critical, Janszen clarifies that it’s not just about drinking water—minerals play a vital role in absorption and adrenal health. She even recommends using castor oil packs for detoxification and hormonal balance.
Tackle ‘Healthy’ Foods Cautiously
Beware of misleading “healthy” foods, cautions Janszen. She cites seed oils, artificial sweeteners, and additives as culprits that can lead to bloat and hormonal disruptions.
Avoid Alcohol and Care for Your Liver
With significant emphasis, Janszen warns against alcohol, highlighting its detrimental effects on hormones, nutrient levels, and sleep. She stresses that liver health is paramount for maintaining hormonal harmony, asserting, “If it’s sluggish, you can’t clear excess hormones or toxins—fatigue and weight gain follow.”
Consistency is Key
As she wraps up her transformative advice, Janszen leaves women with one final thought: patience is essential. “Healing takes time—your hormones didn’t tank overnight; they won’t heal overnight either. Consistency wins.”
With Allie Janszen leading the charge, women over 30 now have a roadmap towards better hormone health and effective weight loss—a journey that champions knowledge, patience, and self-care.
For those ready to take the next step, Janszen continues to inspire through her social media platforms, offering advice and support for anyone looking to embrace their health journey.
