Key Takeaways:

Estrogen dominance for women is the condition of having far too much estrogen in relation to other hormones, in particular, progesterone in the body.
With the overexposure that we have to plastics, chemicals, environmental toxins, food toxins, and stress, there is a good chance that many people are dealing with estrogen dominance.
One of the main reasons why there has been a noticeable rise in estrogen dominance among women is because the use of the birth control pill has become so popular.
The more fat cells you have, the more estrogen you will make. And the more estrogen you make, the more fat you will store.

Action Steps:

Do a DUTCH test or a saliva test to find out where your hormone levels are at.
Limit your soy and coffee intake.
Find a healthier alternative to the birth control pill.
Avoid personal care products that contain xenoestrogens and other toxic chemicals.
Filter your water and drink out of glass or stainless steel.
Eat enough fiber and choose organic as much as possible.
Dry brush.
Ditch the plastic.
Manage your stress.
Take supplements that can help with estrogen dominance.
