0:04
developer at my protein ladies listen up
0:07
today's video is going to delve deeper
0:09
into the hormone balance capsules our
0:11
team have developed for women who are
0:13
looking to take control and find their
0:15
balance whether that be in relation to
0:16
periods of pms pcos or even fertility so
0:21
what is hormone balance our hormone
0:23
balance capsules are a unique expert
0:25
blend of essential nutrients and
0:27
functional ingredients designed to
0:29
regulate hormonal activity let's break
0:31
it down and highlight some of the key
0:32
ingredients and how they can help you
0:34
maintain balance throughout your cycle
0:36
vitamin b6 is the hero proven to help
0:38
regulate hormonal activity and in
0:40
addition a systematic review of relevant
0:43
research has concluded that it can
0:44
improve mood during episodes of pms with
0:47
four of the studies included finding a
0:49
correlation with b6 supplementation and
0:51
easing of depression the capsules also
0:53
contain inositol which is actually a
0:56
sugar that's abundant in the brain and
0:57
other tissues it plays a role in the
0:59
function of neurotransmitters and growth
1:01
factors and manages cell signaling in
1:03
response to hormones in our bodies our
1:05
kidneys do use glucose to produce around
1:07
2 grams of inositol each day but there's
1:10
a wealth of evidence to show additional
1:11
supplementation has a beneficial effect
1:14
so much so that supplementation with
1:16
inositol has become a really popular
1:18
method of treatment for polycystic ovary
1:20
syndrome symptoms including infertility
1:23
one large-scale systematic review of
1:25
clinical studies has found that
1:26
supplementation of inositol can improve
1:29
several of the hormonal and reproductive
1:31
imbalances characteristic of pcos and
1:34
deemed it a safe and effective therapy
1:36
for its symptoms pcos is also associated
1:39
with wider health concerns like insulin
1:41
resistance and therefore type 2 diabetes
1:45
supplementation with inositol has been
1:47
shown to help improve insulin
1:49
sensitivity and reduce male hormone
1:51
levels like testosterone in women with
1:53
pcos helping to restore a normal cycle
1:56
and periods zinc is also included in the
1:58
formula as recent studies have indicated
2:00
that sync supplementation has a positive
2:03
effect on pcos symptoms including
2:05
insulin resistance like with inositol it
2:08
is also proven to support fertility if
2:10
becoming pregnant is on your radar
2:11
coenzyme q10 or coq10 for short is
2:15
another ingredient of hormone balance
2:17
and as the name suggests it supports
2:19
other enzymes in the body to carry out
2:22
essential functions including energy
2:24
production and absorption of other
2:26
nutrients for women with polycystic
2:28
ovary symptoms in particular additional
2:30
coq10 supplementation has been found to
2:33
have beneficial effects on both blood
2:35
sugar levels and insulin levels
2:37
improving some of the side effects of
2:39
pcos although we can produce coq10
2:42
naturally in our bodies it is only in
2:44
very small amounts that decline as we
2:46
age so a supplement like hormone balance
2:48
can help to support those levels and
2:50
finally folic acid it's a widespread
2:53
recommendation that women of
2:54
childbearing age should be supplementing
2:56
with folic acid before they become
2:58
pregnant and throughout early pregnancy
3:00
it increases maternal folate status
3:02
which in turn reduces the risk of neural
3:04
tube defects during the baby's early
3:06
development so who is hormone balance
3:08
for throughout every menstrual cycle
3:11
females experience a variety of hormonal
3:13
changes that can impact our emotional
3:16
and our physical health for women with
3:18
pms pre-menstrual syndrome in particular
3:21
falling levels of estrogen during the
3:23
second half of their cycle can cause a
3:25
drop in serotonin which we all know of
3:27
as the happy hormone this along with
3:29
changes in progesterone levels can bring
3:32
on a variety of symptoms i know a lot of
3:34
us are familiar with mood swings
3:36
headaches stomach cramps and bloating
3:38
for women with pcos polycystic ovary
3:41
syndrome rhea's levels of testosterone
3:43
can cause even more drastic hormonal
3:46
imbalances throughout each month it's a
3:48
common endocrine disorder estimated to
3:50
affect up to 20 of women of reproductive
3:53
age worldwide and can result in
3:55
suffering from weight gain unwanted
3:57
excess hair growth irregular periods and
4:00
even infertility so to conclude whilst
4:03
hormone imbalances are a natural part of
4:05
your body's life cycle nutrition and
4:07
diet can play a part in hormonal changes
4:10
and this is where supplements can help
4:12
there's no reason why we have to accept
4:14
hormone imbalance and all the negative
4:16
knock-on effects that come with it we've
4:18
had loads of five-star reviews already
4:20
from women who suffer from irregular
4:22
periods pcos and even some who are going
4:25
through the menopause give them a go and
