Hormonal imbalance is defined as chemical messengers which regulate our body's systems and that are no longer functioning properly. This dysfunction can be an overproduction or an underproduction of specific hormones. Endocrine glands which are special groups of cells make hormones. There are many endocrine glands in the body with the main ones being the pituitary gland, thyroid, thymus, adrenal glands and the pancreas. Hormones are dominant and it only requires a small amount of them to cause significant changes throughout the body. Both men and women produce hormones in the same areas with one exception, the reproductive organs. Additional male hormones are produced in the testes while women's are produced in the ovaries.

If hormone imbalance is left untreated it can result in serious medical conditions. Being aware of how dealing with factors such as STRESS and a deficiency in important NUTRIENTS can contribute to hormonal problems can get you on the right track for trouble-free hormonal changes
