Hormones play a vital role for health. They communicate messages which tell our bodies how to develop and how to keep bodily processes on track. Hormones influence our metabolism, libido, weight and even the way we handle stress. Given the importance of our hormones, and the havoc that can result if they get out of balance, it pays to ensure that we utilise our diet and lifestyle to support them for optimal health and vitality.
