Curcumin Potentially Helpful Against Hormonal Imbalance Symptoms

(Newswire.net — January 10, 2017) Orlando, FL — Curcumin is believed to be one of the most powerful phytochemicals nowadays. It may be found in the ancient spice called turmeric and is thought to offer a myriad of health benefits.

Curcumin may be potentially helpful against symptoms of hormonal imbalance, such as night sweats and hot flashes. Sufferers often feel heat is radiating inside their bodies and are drenched due to night sweats.

Hormonal imbalance such as having low estrogen levels is believed to cause these symptoms. It may also result from having very low progesterone and high estrogen levels. Hormonal imbalances in the gastrointestinal tract, adrenals, ovaries, and thyroid pancreas are believed to cause the condition.

Keeping all the systems in the body in balance may be essential for women who undergo midlife changes. They should listen to their body and make sure they are able to recognize triggers.

There are other factors such as sleep, stress, or exhaustion to take into account. Getting this information can help sufferers recognize a pattern and allows them to know exactly what triggers the symptoms. It is important to remember that symptoms may vary from one person to another.

Individuals who usually eat spicy foods, smoke, do not exercise, consume caffeine, undergo stress, and follow a diet rich in sugar and starch are thought to be more prone to having hormonal imbalances. Making some dietary and lifestyle changes is believed to be helpful for sufferers.

It is essential for women sufferers to avoid unhealthy foods such as those that contain hormones, preservatives, and pesticides, which may cause disruption in hormonal balances. Instead, they should consume healthy foods such as organic fruits and vegetables. Incorporating anti-inflammatories in one’s diet is also believed to be helpful. Turmeric is thought to be a powerful anti-inflammatory.

Turmeric contains a polyphenol called curcumin, which has various potentially beneficial ingredients. Curcumin is thought to be responsible for many of turmeric’s potential benefits.
