Hormone Health tips
Hormones affect our health in every way you think of. From blood sugar to fertility, to our mood and sleep, it plays a huge role in how we function as humans. Our body produces what is necessary to live day to day, but our environment may not always support our needs. Hormone health is crucial to pay attention to.
Endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are found in our environment that may cause hormonal imbalance. EDCs can be in our diet, air, and water which makes it hard to avoid. Hugh and Grace focuses on promoting hormone health with elevated products that improve your skin, health, and home. Read on to learn more hormone health tips.
Companies like Hugh and Grace take matters into their own hands to find responsibly sourced ingredients and work with manufacturers. One example is Million Marker, to create top of the line products that support our hormone health.
According to the FDA, “the law does not require cosmetic products and ingredients, other than color additives, to have FDA approval before going on the market” (Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition). Our job as consumers is to be as educated as possible to make the choices that best support our families.
