Balancing Hormones – Study Materials
Women in their 30’s, 40’s, and 50’s are in a unique position to PREVENT some of the most common chronic diseases of aging – dementia, osteoporosis, cancer, and cardiovascular disease – by addressing endocrine balance, and the keys to brain health. By addressing blood sugar balance, iron sufficiency and metabolism, and inflammation women feel energetic, pain free, mentally calm and focused, and can easily maintain a healthy weight.
In these workshops, you’ll learn about specific cases, testing examples, and a step-by-step systematic approach to lifestyle medicine, nutrition, and supplement recommendations.

Balancing Neurotransmitters – Study Materials
Anxiety is on the rise and women are affected at much higher rates than men, often with the onset of severe symptoms during PMS, as they approach perimenopause and during menopause. These symptoms can include: worry, overwhelm, fears, phobias, ruminating thoughts, obsessive behaviors and OCD, negative self-talk, imposter syndrome, insomnia and sugar cravings.
By addressing key neurotransmitter deficiencies in your patients and clients, they will see relief of symptoms quickly while other underlying issues such as hormone imbalances, food sensitivities, dysbiosis, infections etc. are addressed. This gives them hope and a willingness to make required dietary changes without feeling deprived and needing willpower.
In these workshops, we’ll discuss how to use targeted individual amino acids to balance neurotransmitters, the trial method, specific protocols, and cases.
