The Ketogenic Diet To Balance Women Hormones

The Ketogenic Diet To Balance Women Hormones

In this article we gonna kill the myth that says "keto diet and intermittent fasting plan is bad for women because it messes up their hormones".

Let's clarify that with the following 6 different points : 

1- Insulin : 

When you decrease insulin by doing a combined plan of Keto and Intermittent fasting, you are instantly enhancing some certain fat burning hormones. Insulin is a fat making hormone and has the power of preventing the fat burning process; it is a dominating hormone, in the presence of Insulin all the fat burning hormones are nullified.

By lowering insulin, you enhance the thyroid hormone which is a fat burning hormone, growth hormone, glucagon, and adrenaline. 

2- Bile : 

Because you're consuming more healthy fat, you're increasing the bile production, it helps you convert the inactive form of thyroid hormone which is T4 to the active form which is T3, so you actually have more effectiveness with your thyroid hormone. 

The good amount of bile increases the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins, like vitamin A, vitamin D, and vitamin E. 

3- Dietary Fat :

By increasing the dietary fat, you're providing the raw material for your steroid hormones in order to make estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and cortisol for your adrenals.

4- PCOS : 

By decreasing your insulin levels you will PCOS, polycystic ovarian syndrome, this is a condition when a woman has too much androgen. 

5- Brain Support :

Running your body on Ketones is gonna support your brain, these chemical bodies are neutral protective. When you do intermittent fasting you have these genes that turn on and your brain actually starts going into repair and the process of growing new brain cells.

The main master glands which are the hypothalamus and the pituitary, they send the information down to your body, and their function is also improved while following this diet properly.

6- Pancreas : 

The state of Ketosis takes off the stress of this endocrine gland so it can finally come back and work effectively. 

The pancreas doesn't only regulate blood sugars but it's involved in digestion as well, so a lot of women that are following a healthy keto diet end up increasing their fertility and their libido.
