  • u thought only obese or senior citizens had to worry about developing diabetes, you're wrong. 

Turns out, 4 in 10 adults in the United States have insulin resistance, also known as pre-diabetes. 👈

What's even more alarming is that most of them don't even know it. Pre-diabetes occurs when your body can no longer efficiently use the insulin it produces. 

This leads to high blood sugar levels, which over time can damage your nerves, blood vessels, and organs. 

If you're looking to reduce your risk, start by ditching processed foods, adding some physical activity to your daily routine, and getting more shut-eye at night. 🌙

  • The endocrine system is responsible for regulating hormones in the body, and when it's out of balance, it can lead to a whole host of problems. 

From weight gain and fatigue to anxiety and depression. Luckily, there are a number of things you can do to help balance your hormones naturally. 

First and foremost, it's important to establish good habits, such as eating a healthy diet, getting enough sleep, and exercising regularly. 🏋️‍♀️

Additionally, try to reduce your stress levels by practicing relaxation techniques such as yoga or meditation. 🧘‍♀️

By following these simple steps, you can help bring your hormones back into balance and improve your overall health. 🧬

  • It's no secret that weight gain can be caused by a change in hormones. After all, when you think about it, it makes perfect sense. 

Hormones are responsible for regulating all sorts of things in the body, so it stands to reason that they would also play a role in regulating weight. 

But what exactly is the connection between hormones and weight gain? 🤔

It turns out that there are two main ways in which hormones can lead to weight gain. 

First of all, they can lead to an increase in appetite. 

This is because certain hormones (such as ghrelin) stimulate the appetite center in the brain, leading to feelings of hunger. 

Secondly, hormones can also mess with your energy output. Both of the above can make it more likely for you to go above your maintenance level of calories, leading to weight gain.

Ultimately though, whether or not you gain weight is about calories in vs calories out, rather than hormones!

  • From the stress of a final exam to the elation of a first kiss, hormones shape our moods and metabolism, as well as a variety of body functions.

But where are these mysterious molecules produced? In humans, most hormones are created in the endocrine glands. 

These include the pituitary gland, thyroid gland, and adrenal gland, among others. 🧬

The endocrine glands secrete hormones directly into the bloodstream, where they travel to different parts of the body to exert their effects. 🩸

For example, adrenaline is released by the adrenal gland in response to stressful situations and prepares the body for "fight or flight." 

Similarly, the thyroid hormone regulates metabolism and growth, while the pituitary hormone controls other endocrine glands. 

What's an interesting fact you know about hormones? Comment below! 👇

  • The thyroid is a small butterfly-shaped gland located at the front of the neck. This gland produces thyroid hormones, which play a crucial role in regulating metabolism. 

When the thyroid doesn't produce enough hormones, it's called hypothyroidism. 

Hypothyroidism can cause a variety of symptoms, including fatigue, weight gain, and depression. 🧐

It can also lead to goiter, which is an enlargement of the thyroid gland. In most cases, hypothyroidism can be effectively treated with medication. 

However, if left untreated, it can cause serious health problems. If you think you might have hypothyroidism, it's important to see a doctor for a diagnosis. 👩‍⚕️
