Hormonal health isn’t just about supplements - it’s also about how you live day to day. These evidence-backed lifestyle habits work alongside our Pause blend to support balance, energy, and emotional well-being:

  • 1. Reduce Endocrine Disruptors

    Many common beauty and cleaning products contain synthetic chemicals that interfere with hormone function.

    Tip: Look for “paraben-free,” “phthalate-free,” and use natural or organic products where possible.

  • 2. Eat a Hormone-Friendly Diet

    Balance meals with healthy fats (like avocado, nuts, seeds), fibre-rich veg, and quality protein. Limiting processed sugar and refined carbs helps regulate insulin and oestrogen.

    Tip: Add cruciferous veg - broccoli, kale, cabbage - to support oestrogen detox.

  • 3. Move Your Body Gently but Consistently

    Daily movement helps balance blood sugar, lift mood, and lower cortisol. Think walking, yoga, pilates, or strength work - whatever feels good without draining you.

    Tip: Morning movement outside can boost energy and reset your body clock.
