Anxiety, depression, mood changes, weight loss and hormones
natural treatment for anxiety, depression and mood changes that works
Hormones play havoc with your moods causing anxiety and depression. When your hormones are imbalanced, you are much more likely to suffer from fatigue, forgetfulness, mood swings, insomnia & weight gain making weight loss impossible.

Living in the 'fast' world of today exposes you to unavoidable levels of stress - causing elevated cortisol levels. The problem is, sustained high levels of cortisol destroy healthy muscle (important for burning calories); impairs your metabolism & contributes to anxiety, depression and mood changes.
Left untreated, anxiety, depression and mood changes can cause chaos in your life & relationships with those around you, so it is important to address them. They do cause your metabolism to slow down, due to their hormonal influences. Read Yvonne's journey here
What hormones affect your mood and cause weight gain?
Hormones carry messages from glands to cells to maintain chemical levels in the bloodstream that achieve balance or "homeostasis".
If we're under too much stress, though, the adrenals work overtime, favoring cortisol instead of DHEA production. Unfortunately elevated cortisol levels contribute to weight gain around the middle ... something we can all do without!
Major contributors to hormonal imbalance associated with anxiety, depression and mood changes are:
Salivary Hormone Testing for Mood Changes
By completing my full online naturopathic health and hormone test, I will invest no less than 45 minutes piecing together your symptoms and really pinpoint what hormones are causing your weight gain and other health complaints. If I feel that further salivary or blood testing via you GP is required, I will make those recommendations.
For example, as part of the process of compiling a natural weight loss program for you, I may suggest measuring hormone levels by using salivary hormone test kits, available from my clinic. Salivary hormone test kits can assist in the proper diagnoses of hormonal imbalances contributing to weight gain and conditions such as Fatigue, PCOS, Fibroids, Endometriosis, Cyst, Menopause and Thyroid imbalance.

Cortisol also stimulates the release of glucose, potentially contributing to metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance & subsequent weight gain. It stimulates your appetite & can leave you craving carbohydrates making weight loss difficult. Something you don't need when you are trying to lose weight. This rebound effect is often incorrectly labeled as emotional eating. Although some of us do eat for comfort, often the cravings are ravenous & uncontrollable. If this is happening to you, it could be your hormones! Read Carolyn's journey her
Most importantly it interferes with healthy hormonal function, contributing to conditions such as Thyroid imbalance, and ovarian imbalances such as Menopause, PCOS, Fibroids, Cysts & Endometriosis. All of these lead to weight gain and make it very difficult for you to lose weight.
Mood changes can also be caused by underlying neurotransmitter weakness, relationship disturbance, physical and emotional issues and stressful life circumstances. All of these factors contribute to weight gain, and directly affect your metabolism causing weight loss plateau's.
Not sure if hormones are causing mood changes and making weight loss difficult?
Neuro transmitter weakness and its affect on mood and weight gain
Neurotransmitters are chemical messengers released from nerve cells that communicate to other nerve cells to control major body functions including movement, emotional response and mood.
The most commonly known neurotransmitters are serotonin, norepinephrine, dopamine, acetylcholine, and GABA and histamine.
Typical signs and symptoms of neuro transmitter weakness are:

It's uncommon for a woman to have all of these symptoms. But two or more symptoms suggest that a lab test for blood histamine is in order.
So what can cause low levels?
- Binge drinking
- Dried fruits
- High copper levels - foods such as smoked fish, Soy flour, refined flour, dried.
- Stress
What tests are available for establishing exact levels?
Salivary hormone test kits are a non-invasive way to assess hormone levels and function within the body - via analysis of a saliva sample and are available through registered practitioners.
The hormones tested provide information about the levels of the bio-available hormones that are active within your body. This information when considered in conjunction with other diagnosis techniques provides valuable information to evaluate the underlying causes of your mood changes and weight gain.
