These days it seems that we are forever chasing optimal hormone levels. Women combating PCOS, endometriosis, adenomyosis, PMS, mood changes etc; men wanting better testosterone, stamina, motivation, and endurance. We are just looking to be healthier versions of ourselves and trying to achieve health to the capacity the body has been designed.

While there are many things to look at and evaluate in terms of blood work, nutrient deficiencies, genetic components, sleep hygiene, environmental exposures and so on, let's not forget that food is medicine when used properly.

You don't have to be the next top chef or even cook daily. Just remember that simple small changes go along way and IT STARTS IN THE KITCHEN.

1. Pocessed sugars disregulate hormones period. So look to have natural sugars like fruits or sweeteners that come from nature (this in moderation)

2. Green leafy veggies help with detox, mineral replenishment, and elimination. This is great for ridding toxins on a daily basis

3. Healthy fats like olive oil, wild caught fish and fish oil, ground flax seed, almonds, pumpkin seeds all help with hormone regulation, brain health and nerve health

4. Proper hydration is essential for basic cell function. Since we are made up of cells, if we are not properly hydrates (meaning H2O and electrolytes), not one cell will function optimally. Instead, the body will prioritize functions to stay alive rather that thrive optimally.

Clean eating rule
* Eat food closest to what they look like in nature
*wild caught fish only
* grass fed red mean
*Organic fruits and veggies, or at least follow clean 15/dirty dozen list
*Grain should be organic to avoid glyphosate

I hope this is helpful and remember that Knowledge is power, but Applied knowledge is Transformational!

To your health lovelies,

So realized that I never officially introduced myself. So here we are, all these years later.

For those who don't know me, my name is Dr. Zoë Hickson. I am a licensed Naturopathic Physician in Connecticut.

I treat individuals of all types of health states ranging from prevention and optimizing health to chronic disease and integrative oncology.

What I enjoy most about what I do is educating and empowering men, women, and even children to be better advocates for themselves and their loved ones.

I prioritize mind, body, and spirit with every person I meet and I do my best to educate in a way that translate throughout the medical field.

I love what I do, and am grateful to help individuals heal and achieve their health goals in a way that is congruent with the unique design of nature and human kind.

Here's an oldie, but goodie. This article is bears repeating. I can never stress enough how important sleep is for our mental health, physical health, and growing bodies for our young ones.

Research in mice suggests that the brain's dedicated immune cells are better able to do repair work during sleep, and explains the underlying mechanism.

So we know that hand washing is one of the most simple tools we have for staying healthy and managing the spread of unwanted contaminants. While we all should have proper hand washing practices, the other side of the coin is dry and cracking skin; especially in cold weather. Consider using natural moisturizers after washing, and using gentle chemical free soaps to reduce the drying and stripping effects they may have. Read below, and enjoy your hand washing :).

Diligent hand washing is always important, now more than ever. Unfortunately, frequent hand washing comes with an unpleasant effect—dry, flaky, cracked skin, the result of physical damage to the skin. Your skin is your body’s barrier from everyday exposure to outside elements. It is comprised of...
