In this episode, Josh Kreifels, a registered dietitian, explains how protein and balanced nutrition benefit women's hormones and health. Adequate protein stabilizes blood sugar, reduces stress hormones, and supports hormone production. Nutrient-rich diets with vitamins and minerals like B vitamins, zinc, and magnesium optimize hormonal function. Avoiding processed foods, sugar, and refined carbs improves insulin sensitivity and reduces hormonal fluctuations. Prioritizing protein and nutrition promotes healthy hormone balance in women.
