Ignite Your Health: Empower Yourself with Bio-Identical Hormones!

In the journey to optimal health and well-being, the quest for hormonal balance plays a pivotal role. Hormones act as messengers in the body, influencing everything from mood and energy levels to metabolism and overall vitality. However, maintaining harmony within this intricate system can be a challenge, especially as the natural aging process takes its toll. Fortunately, there’s a powerful ally in the form of bio-identical hormones, offering a revolutionary approach to empower individuals on their wellness journey.

Bio-identical hormones are compounds that closely mimic the molecular structure of hormones produced by the human body. Unlike synthetic hormones, these natural replicas are derived from plant sources, making them a safer and more compatible option for the body’s intricate hormonal dance.

One of the key advantages of bio-identical hormones lies in their ability to restore balance without the side effects often associated with conventional hormone replacement therapies. By seamlessly integrating with the body’s existing hormonal pathways, bio-identical hormones offer a tailored solution, addressing individual needs for both men and women.

Achieving hormonal balance is not just about mitigating the symptoms of hormonal fluctuations; it’s about unlocking the full potential of your body. Whether you’re grappling with the challenges of menopause, andropause, low-T or simply seeking to optimize your well-being, bio-identical hormones provide a personalized and effective avenue for empowerment.

Embracing bio-identical hormones is akin to giving your body the tools it needs to thrive. It’s about harnessing the innate power within to regain control over your health and vitality. By restoring hormonal equilibrium, individuals can experience improvements in energy levels, mental clarity, mood, and overall quality of life.

The journey to empowerment begins with acknowledging the profound influence hormones wield over our well-being. Bio-identical hormones offer a holistic and natural approach to harmonizing these essential messengers, allowing individuals to reclaim their vitality and unlock the full potential of their bodies. It’s time to take charge of your health and embrace the transformative power of bio-identical hormones on the path to a balanced and empowered life.

Solution to Inspiring Hope

In a world experiencing more mental health “depression” concerns than at any other time in history, we find ourselves asking “Why has this become such a problem?” Isolation, loneliness, and depression have increased. The results of the global pandemic have brought more attention to mental health concerns than ever before. Is there a solution to inspiring hope at New Leaf Wellness?

Yes… HOPE is that solution.

Hope is a feeling of expectation and the desire for something to happen or change. Do you hope to LIVE LIFE BETTER? New Leaf Wellness brings that state of HOPE to hundreds of patients. Let yourself be one of those patients!

Often, we lump the terms “hopes, dreams, and goals” together. It is hard to accomplish dreams and establish goals without having hope. Hope is at the foundation of all we do and wants to achieve. Fueling our passions and following our dreams gives us purpose and a sense of belonging within society. It all begins with hope.

Individuals who lack hope don’t dream, don’t set goals, have little passion, and struggle to find purpose. The result often is giving up, throwing in the towel, or saying, “Why even try?” When individuals are ready to give up, they are more susceptible to feeling bad, depressed, and even moody. We must inspire hope and encourage people to dream once again.

HOPE: Honoring Opportunities and Purpose for Everyone

The root of change is hope. Without hope, changes will be rough. Studies show that having just one person you trust and confide in impacts your sense of hope and increases your ability to set and achieve dreams. With our therapies at New Leaf Wellness, we can inspire hope in others. If you want to inspire hope, here are some tips:

Simple tips that will help you inspire hope in others:

Smile and say hello to people.
Ask simple questions that show you care. (How are you doing?)
Find out what they are interested in or what motivates them.
Ask what they are passionate about.
Ask them about their dreams and goals.
Encouraging others to take action to pursue their dreams with SMART goals.
Don’t judge or criticize.
Celebrate success.
Listen and be slow to speak.
Encourage others to keep going and not give up.

HOPE: Helping Others Pursue their Everything

We all can make positive changes in our lives and inspire positive change in others. The solution is to inspire hope in a few people, and they inspire hope in a few more. We can all be a part of a much-needed change in the world. Want the solution to inspiring hope? Start by inspiring HOPE.

Building New Habits Step by Step

Building new habits step by step or breaking old ones can often feel overwhelming. We set ambitious goals and try to achieve them all at once, only to find ourselves struggling to stay consistent or losing motivation after a short while. But what if there was a better approach? What if we could make lasting changes by taking small, manageable steps? Just like the old saying goes, “How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time.” In this blog, we will explore the power of taking small steps when building new habits and how this approach can lead to lasting success.

The Myth of Quick Habit Formation

There’s a common misconception that it takes a specific number of days, such as 17, 21, or 30, to form a new habit. While it’s true that consistency is key to building habits, the idea that a habit will magically become automatic after a set number of days is a myth. Instead, habits are complex behaviors that involve various factors, including motivation, cues, triggers, and rewards. Simply trying to force yourself to do something every day for a set number of days may not be enough to create a lasting habit.

The Power of Small Steps

Instead of trying to tackle a new habit all at once, breaking it down into small, manageable steps can be much more effective. In summary, taking small steps allows you to focus on one aspect of the habit at a time. The small steps make it easier to integrate into your routine and sustain over the long term. Here’s why small steps can be so powerful:

Overcome Overwhelm: When we set big goals or try to make multiple changes at once, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. This can lead to stress, procrastination, and ultimately giving up on the habit altogether. Breaking the habit into smaller steps makes it more manageable and less overwhelming increasing the likelihood of success.
Build Momentum: Taking small steps allows you to build momentum over time. Each small success reinforces the habit and creates a positive feedback loop, making it easier to stay motivated and continue making progress.
Create Consistency: Consistency is crucial when it comes to habit formation. By starting small, you can establish a consistent routine without feeling like you’re sacrificing too much time or effort. In summary, this makes it easier to stick with the habit and gradually increase the difficulty as you progress.
Foster Self-Compassion: Building new habits can be challenging, and setbacks are inevitable. When you take small steps, it’s easier to be kind to yourself and practice self-compassion when you encounter obstacles or make mistakes. This helps you maintain a positive mindset and bounce back from setbacks with resilience.

Practical Tips for Building Habits One Step at a Time

Now that we understand the power of small steps, let’s look at tips for building new habits:

Start with a Clear Goal: Clearly define the habit you want to build and why it’s important to you. Simply put, having a clear goal provides motivation and direction for your small steps.
Break It Down: Break the habit down into small, specific steps that are easy to accomplish. Therefore, if your goal is to eat healthier, start with small changes like adding an extra serving of vegetables to your meals or replacing sugary snacks with fruit.
Set a Schedule: Create a schedule or a routine for your small steps. For example, if you want to start a workout routine, schedule regular workout sessions at specific times and days of the week.
Track Your Progress: Keep track of your small steps and celebrate your progress. Use a habit tracker or a journal to monitor your consistency and reward yourself for each small success.

In conclusion, talk to your provider at New Leaf Wellness, Omaha, NE and the other New Leaf Wellness clinics. Start by taking ONE Bite at a Time and build those new habits!

G.A.C. Injections

G.A.C. injections are widely used as an effective weight loss supplement, and G.A.C. injections are helping many dieters lessen sugar cravings and stick to low carb dieting. But a common question we get is, what are G.A.C. injections? So, we’re diving in to how they work to help your body.

Glutamine, arginine and carnitine (G.A.C.) are amino acids when combined converts glycogen to energy, rather than fat. These three amino acids combined make it easier to burn calories and expel from the body. Luckily, this combination is newly made available as a pharmacy-grade prescription by ReGenesis HRT in injectable form. G.A.C. injections are specifically formulated for rapid weight loss and enhance athletic performance via the stimulation of the body’s metabolism (through the transfer of fatty acids to the mitochondria). Also, ReGenesis HRT’s team of medical researchers have found G.A.C. to be an important component in muscle repair, body sculpting and immune system enhancement.

G.A.C. Injections Benefits:

• Increases growth hormone levels
• Prevention of muscle loss
• Faster muscle recovery
• Improves circulation
• Powerful fat burning properties
• Conversion of stored fat into energy
• Increases energy levels
• Higher metabolic rates
• Balances hormones
• Improves mood
• Increases stamina

Below is a breakdown of each amino acid, and its role in fat loss:

G is for Glutamine

Glutamine is one of the body’s most abundant amino acids and is the building block for all essential proteins. It is most commonly used to boost the immune system, combatting the effects of bodily distress. However, Glutamine also enhances exercise performance and expedites muscle recovery allowing users to effectively burn more calories.

A is for Arginine

Arginine is an amino acid that changes into nitric oxide. Nitric oxide is a neurotransmitter shown to improve circulation and blood flow. Due to Arginine’s positive effects on blood circulation, workout performance and muscle recovery time improves, leading to an increase in your fat burning rate. Therefore, Arginine is extremely effective for weight loss.

C is for L-Carnitine

L-Carnitine is a substance produced by the liver and kidneys which converts body fat into energy. Studies show carnitine reduces body fat, increases muscle mass, improves stamina and strength and lessens fatigue, which may all contribute to weight loss. Likewise, its muscle building properties make it a favorite among weightlifters and bodybuilding professionals. Consequently, Carnitine boosts energy during times of caloric deficit eliminating fatigue and irritability while dieting.

The Truth About Your Night Sweats

Waking Up Drenched in Sweat?

If you wake up drenched in sweat, think of your armpits as evidence. You do not have to do sleuthing to figure out what is prompting your perspiration. Night Sweats. Therefore, we are uncovering the truth about your night sweats and what your body is really telling you.

Firstly, night sweats are common. In a study published in Annals of Family Medicine, one-third of primary care patients reported night sweats during the past month. Your body is signaling to you, are you listening?

“However, no one knows exactly how common the condition is, because most sufferers of night sweats never report the symptom to their doctor”, says study author James Mold, M.D., a professor of family medicine at the University of Oklahoma. Think of night sweats as smoke detector going off in the home, it means time find the root of the alarm.

Could Night Sweats Be Hormonal?

In a literature review published in the Journal of the American Board of Family Medicine, Dr. Mold and his colleagues revealed that several factors increase the likelihood of night sweats including: panic attacks, sleep problems, fever, numbness in hands and feet, anxiety and stress, and trouble breathing at night. Night sweats may also be a symptom of unbalanced hormones.

Much like hot flashes, low estrogen effects the hypothalamus is often specifically what causes night sweats in women. The hypothalamus is the part of the brain that controls appetite, body temperature, sleep and sex hormones.

“No night sweats or hot flashes anymore. More energy!”

– Rhonda S., New Leaf Wellness Patient, see more testimonials >>

So, it’s important to us to live your best life. We provide a variety of health and wellness services personalized to your body’s deficiencies.

Not Just Women Experience Night Sweats…

It is a common misconception that only women experience night sweats. When men experience low testosterone levels like andropausal, it commonly causes false signals to the hypothalamus producing night sweats. Additionally, men with high cortisol (stress) levels, poor diet and a sedentary lifestyle which can contribute to night sweats.

“It is putting me in balance, and I am becoming active again.”

– David B., New Leaf Wellness Patient, see more testimonials >>

Conclusively, if you wake up in a pool of sweat almost every night, you should give us a call at New Leaf Wellness to get your hormones checked.

What’s Your Adrenal Protocol?

What’s your adrenal protocol? Didn’t know you need one? First, you may need to understand what adrenals in order to figure out what the protocol should be for you and your body.

B Vitamins and Adrenal Function

Your adrenal glands manufacture a number of hormones, such as cortisol, adrenaline, aldosterone, estrogen and testosterone that regulate many processes in your body as well as help you cope with stress. This hormone production system is referred to as the adrenal cascade. Each of the eight B vitamins that make up vitamin B complex is essential in varying quantities throughout the adrenal cascade, as well as in many other processes from mood to DNA synthesis to energy production. Most B vitamins act as coenzymes, which means that they help form enzymes to become catalysts in biochemical transformations throughout your body.

Three Major Bs in the Adrenal Cascade

Vitamin B3 (niacin) is one of the most important of the B vitamins to the adrenal cascade. Large amounts of niacin are necessary to form the molecular structure of certain coenzymes critical for almost all of the steps in this cascade.

B5 (pantothenic acid) is another essential contributor in the adrenal cascade and is converted in the body into acetyl-CoA, a substance critical to the conversion of glucose into energy. It is present in all cells but in higher quantities in the adrenals because so much energy is needed to produce the adrenal hormones.

B6 (pyridoxine) is also a coenzyme in several of the biochemical pathways in the adrenal cascade and plays a role in the functioning of the hypothalamic/pituitary/adrenal (HPA) axis that modulates adrenal activity and the stress response.

Although proportionately larger quantities of B3, B5 and B6 are used in adrenal hormone production, all of the B vitamins help generate energy and work in concert with each other. Therefore, the presence of the complete B complex is necessary for each individual B vitamin to optimally do its job. Their relative ratios are especially critical to how well they are able to support adrenal function.

“B-12 injections give me the energy I need to help with my busy life. I’m more alert, I don’t need naps and I haven’t gotten sick when all my friends have had the flu. I would recommend B12 injections!”

– Angela H. New Leaf Wellness Patient, Read More NLW Patients’ Story

Vitamin B Complex – Optimal Ratios for Stress and Adrenal Fatigue

When buying a stress supplement containing B complex, the key is to look for one that has the B vitamins in the proper proportions for the human body to utilize, and specifically for the relative ratios that the adrenals need. The stress formulas that are composed of equal amounts of the B vitamins are not metabolized efficiently. An optimal formula for stress and adrenal fatigue should provide, per day, approximately:

75-130 mg of B3 (niacin)
700-1200 mg of B5 (pantothenic acid)
90-150 mg of B6 (pyridoxine)
15-25 mg of B1 thiamine)
15-25 mg of B2 riboflavin)
300-500 mcg of B7 (biotin)
600-1000 mcg of B9 (folic acid)

Because some people do not absorb vitamin B12 (cyanocobalamin) well in a regular vitamin supplement format, it may be preferable to take this in a separate 200-400 mcg sublingual supplement.

Have you been tested to even know if your adrenals are low? What are reasonable levels? We have seen many patients who had no idea their symptoms were from adrenal fatigue!

Adrenal Fatigue – What You Need To Know >

Follow Up Treatment:

Lab tests and meeting with the Provider should be done every 3 months. It is also recommend to eliminate hard-to-digest foods and toxins from your diet and to have a Food Sensitivity Test completed. Adrenal Fatigue can take up to 2 years to completely heal so follow all of the Providers recommendations.
