[…] Hormones are made in the morning. Hormones are made from cholesterol, and our bodies need to be provided with the nutritional building blocks required to make that cholesterol. We usually think about cholesterol as a bad thing (thank you, diet culture) but it’s not. Without enough of the right kinds of cholesterol, our bodies would break down and we would lose function (or maybe die.) Not eating breakfast means that we aren’t providing our bodies with the building blocks they need to manufacture hormones at the right time of day.

[…] Lifestyle Factors for Balancing Hormones: The #1 thing we can do to support hormonal balance is building a foundation for well-being. This means taking nutrition, rest, exercise, stress management, and psychological/emotional health into account.

These lifestyle factors include eating enough (in terms of calories, macronutrients, and micronutrients) as well as eating frequently enough to keep blood sugar stable. It also involves balancing exercise and rest to prevent elevations in cortisol, the stress hormone, which interrupts the production of sex hormones like progesterone. This is part of the reason why stress management, sleep hygiene, and social support are so important.
