As you may know, cortisol helps to maintain blood pressure, immune function, and the body's anti-inflammatory processes. It is quite affectionately known as the stress hormone. It is the hormone your adrenal glands produce and secrete when your brain and body perceive a stressor. Once released and circulating in the bloodstream, cortisol causes an increase in your heart rate and blood pressure, which is the natural flight or fight response meant to help humans escape d...anger. When you experience chronic stress or anxiety, your adrenal glands may not produce ENOUGH cortisol. As a naturopath specializing in hormone balancing, Dr. Lana takes a holistic approach to natural cortisol balancing. A healthy balanced diet and regular exercise are paramount to modulating cortisol. However, be aware that overexerting without enough rest can increase cortisol, as the constant demand for glucose from the muscles can create chronic stress leading to adrenal burnout. By examining her patient’s daily habits and looking at the full picture of what is causing a cortisol imbalance, Dr. Lana can help create a holistic, natural approach to rebalancing your levels and remedying the symptoms that go along with a cortisol imbalance before you hit adrenal burnout, as well as ways to combat and cure your adrenal fatigue naturally. #drlanawellness #adrenalfatigue #mind #mindbodysoul #mindbodyspirit #adrenalfatiguerecovery #cortisolcontrol #cortisolimbalance #cortisollevels #stressrelief #stressmanagement #holisticlifestyle #stresscure #adrenalburnout #leafygreens #legumes #orange #avocado #fish #broccoli #walnuts #carrots #eggs

The Human body contains a meridian system that is comprised of energy channels, which are linked with the body’s tissues, organs, and other pathways. Acupuncture involves the gentle insertion of thin needles (the size of a strand of hair) at specific points along the various ’s meridians/channels creating stimulation and blood flow or Qi. To determine what meridians Dr. Lana will address, will depend on your specific pain points, condition, and overall health goals.

Think of it as code that programs your software. Your hardware is your genes. Your software is how those genes are turned on or off. Food regulates not only your genes but also your hormones, like insulin, testosterone, estrogen, and thyroid. It alters your brain chemistry, producing happy chemicals, and it can even trigger addictive patterns. So how can you personalize your diet (and nutritional needs) to optimize your health?
