Bio-Identical Hormones

Bioidentical Hormones to Treat Aging-Related Diseases
 
The latest research shows that bioidentical hormone replacement therapy can offer a successful treatment for many of the symptoms of the aging process. Comprising natural plant-based hormones that are the same as the hormones we each produce, bioidentical hormones are formulated by the world’s leading pharmacists to assure a more convenient, and effective means of individual hormone replacement.

This customized approach to hormone replacement is changing the way patients undergo hormone replacement therapy, and offers a full range of benefits. In this article, our team at Galveston Weight Loss provide a comprehensive overview of bioidentical hormones and the hormone replacement process.


The Impact of Bioidentical Hormone Replacement
 
Traditionally, Western medicine, and those who practice in the medical industry, have believed that diseases such as dementia, stroke, cancer, and cardiovascular disease are simply a part of the natural aging process. This has been the foundation of the resistance in treating these signs of aging individually, and through specific hormone-based treatments. The results of the latest studies show that we must now look at the benefits of a hormone-based treatment approach to the aging process, and determine how best to treat individuals by using their own body as a basis for treatment strategies.

Bioidentical hormone replacement therapies are designed to target the hormones that are depleted as we age. The following hormones can be supplemented by individualized bioidentical hormone replacement therapies:


DHEA

The hormone DHEA is a hormone secreted by the adrenal glands located above the kidneys. It’s a hormone that reduces cardiovascular risk by increasing fat metabolism. It also stimulates the immune system, restores sexual vitality and improves the mood. As an anti-stress hormone, DHEA can also be harnessed within bioidentical hormone replacement therapies to reverse the effective of stress on the immune system.


Insulin

It’s known that seventy-five percent of American adults suffer from Insulin Resistance Syndrome. This condition worsens with age and often results in high blood pressure, obesity, gout and heart disease. The replacement of insulin through the use of bioidentical hormone replacement techniques can help reduce these conditions and support adequate kidney function as the individual ages.


Testosterone

Secreted by the adrenal glands, the testes, and the ovaries, testosterone contributes to energy, reduced fat, muscle mass, endurance and psychological status. It’s a hormone that plays a significant role in a person’s life. But as we age, our testosterone levels decrease. This begins in both men and women around the age of 40, and the decline can cause fatigue for many individuals. A comprehensive approach to bioidentical hormone replacement, which includes testosterone, can reduce these effects of the aging process.

Through an individualized approach to hormone replacement, and by targeting specific types of hormones, our team at Galveston Weight Loss can now work to reduce many of the most severe medical conditions.
