How Toxins affect Hormones
There are toxins in the environment that have a direct impact on our hormones. They are hormone like substances that act in a similar way to human hormones when they enter the body. Though modern life has given us many conveniences, it has also given us substances that never existed in nature but that we are exposed to. Xeno-oestrogens are foreign substances that are not real oestrogen but act like it. These are chemicals found in substances like plastics and pesticides. Researchers believe that even though they are not real oestrogen, their effect in the body is to add to the total oestrogen level. This is a problem because oestrogen should be in balance with progesterone. The balance exists in the ratio between the two hormones, not their levels. If you have a higher amount of oestrogen compared to your progesterone you are in oestrogen dominance. Oestrogen dominance can put a woman at risk of developing oestrogen-dependent cancers such as breast cancer. It is the liver's task to take apart and detoxify xeno-oestrogens. Supporting the health of your liver is critical for your overall good health.
