Dear friends and patients, Heavy or irregular periods.
Hot flashes or night sweats. Breast tenderness, cysts or fibroid tumors.
Cramping, bloating, irritability and fatigue. Many of you together with
millions of other women suffer in silence from these conditions. Too many
think the discomfort is just “part of being a woman”. It isn’t. Yes, it’s common,
but it’s not normal. Each is a sign of Estrogen Dominance
– a condition that can lead to cancer or other serious diseases. If you are
estrogen dominant, you must discover what causes it and how to beat it. If you are suffering from
any of the symptoms discussed here, I suggest you take an Expanded Female Hormone Panel
saliva test. This multi-sample test will accurately measure free levels
of estrogen, progesterone, FSH, LH, testosterone and DHEA during your cycle.
It will confirm whether you are estrogen dominant and help to determine the
right treatment. As a first step, it is very
important to eliminate any excess levels of hormones from your body and to
improve estrogen metabolism. That’s why I recommend a 21-day Purification
Program, high in cruciferous vegetables and whole food fiber. In addition and to lay a
good foundation, we also need to make sure your digestion is strong, your
blood sugar is managed properly with a healthy diet, and any physical and
emotional stress is eliminated. Holistic chiropractic treatments including
supplements will restore the balance of the reproductive and adrenal systems
and your symptoms will disappear. Yours in good health, Dr. Samuel Jamieson, D.C. |
Suffering from PMS or menopausal symptoms? Find out if you are estrogen dominant. What is Estrogen Dominance? Estrogen dominance is a
condition in which a woman can have deficient, normal or excessive levels of
estrogen, but has too little progesterone to balance the estrogen level. Estrogen dominance is the main issue with cycling
women and causes many of these common conditions and symptoms:
What causes Estrogen Dominance? Estrogen dominance is a
serious condition that can lead to cancer and other serious diseases. Many factors can contribute
to estrogen dominance:

Avoid Xenoestrogens found in the environment. Harmful man-made estrogens
called xenoestrogens are found everywhere in the environment: in cosmetics,
soaps, pharmaceuticals, pesticides, commercially grown meat and produce to
name a few. You eat and breathe xenoestrogens and your skin absorbs them.
They interfere with the normal balance of your cycle by mimicking estrogen
dominance. Most diets are rich in
xenoestrogens. Even “healthy” foods like lean chicken may contain steroids
and antibiotics used to unnaturally speed that chicken to market-ready
maturity. Take conscious steps to reduce your xenoestrogen exposure by
washing produce thoroughly, and whenever possible buy organic foods. |
Estrogen Dominance and cancer. Every woman produces
estrogen, but not every woman processes estrogen in the same way. When the
liver and the gut fail to metabolize and excrete estrogen on a monthly basis,
estrogen may get reabsorbed and stored in the fat tissue. This can promote
tumor development, especially in the breast. Therefore always add
estrogen balancing foods and supplements to your diet. Research has shown
that women who eat cruciferous vegetables have an overall reduced risk of
breast cancer. Vegetables such as kale, broccoli and Brussels sprouts contain
compounds to help metabolize estrogen. Organically grown, bio-available kale
and Brussels sprouts are now available as supplements, which we offer as SP
Complete, SP
Green Food, and Cruciferous
Complete to our patients. In addition, adding whole
food fiber (for more information, see our Whole
Food Fiber product) to your diet will keep you regular and ensure toxins
and hormones are more quickly eliminated as waste products. For more information about our
purification and detoxification programs, Extended Female Hormone saliva
testing, and our holistic treatments for any of the above conditions, call
