Unbalanced hormones are more of an issue today than ever before because we are living longer and our lifestyle is determining our health. Back in the day, when people died at a younger age, they died young and healthy of infectious diseases (well, the food also came right from the land!). Now we live long enough that our bodies have time to fall apart!

The operating systems that balance all of the intricate relationships between the bodies systems are expected to work, and work well, for a much longer time. While how one ages is determine by genetics, how fat one is is determined by daily lifestyle habits. This is an alterable part of the aging process. If your genetics have written your future for a death at age 70, an earlier death may be in their future not taking care of oneself resulting in “accelerated metabolic aging.”

A healthy, balanced diet to restore or retain balanced hormone harmony and ward off the diseases associated with “accelerated metabolic aging.” These diseases are cancer, arthritis, osteoporosis, heart disease, stroke, and type II diabetes. If you notice, these illnesses are associated with poor habits and/or have been touted to be warded off by weight control, good dietary habits, and regular exercise, all of which reduce the fat stored by the body.
