Products containing estrogen - the hormone of female youth. A woman always wants to look attractive and be beautiful. But beauty comes from the inside and this is, first of all, health. And it has a huge impact on women’s health. hormonal background– content of hormones in the body. One group of these female hormones is called “estrogens.” In principle, they are also present in the male body, but in much smaller quantities and affect the appearance and health of a man only in a situation of their obvious excess. The main effect of estrogens is aimed at ensuring the reproductive function of women. Estrogen is a word that consists of two parts: “oistros” - irrepressible desire, passion; "genes" – calling. Or another more literal translation– liveliness (brightness) + gender. If I can say so, it is a hormone of sexuality. And it is precisely rounded shapes, breasts and even women’s “giggling” that, from the point of view of doctors, are ensured by these hormones. Therefore, naturally, estrogen deficiency manifests itself in: - depression and sudden mood swings; - weight gain; - tides; - fast fatiguability; - low self-esteem and inattention to one’s appearance; - reduction sexual desire and sensitivity. That is why it is also called the hormone of youth. As long as a woman feels feminine and attractive, age does not matter. But simply based on these signs it is impossible to diagnose yourself with a reduced amount of estrogen. Both depression and fatigue can be the result of a host of other diseases. Hormonal levels can only be determined by taking tests. And it is doctors who, after tests, prescribe replacement or therapeutic hormone therapy. But it has already been confirmed and proven by everyone that artificial hormones act much harsher and stronger than phytoestrogens - plant hormones. The main problem with hormone therapy is that with prolonged intake of artificial hormones into the body, a woman’s own body actually stops producing them (even though they were so in short supply). And it is no longer possible to restore this process afterwards. Phytoestrogens act much more gently and not so aggressively. Therefore, if you find yourself with low estrogen levels, it is better to maintain their level by consuming foods and herbs that contain plant hormones. This is by the way good way align hormonal levels after childbirth, when a sharp drop in the amount of estrogen produced leads to postpartum depression and severe hair loss. There are 3 types of plant hormones with estrogenic activity: isoflavonoids, lignans and coumestans. Estrogens in food: - flax seeds. This is product No. 1 in terms of the amount of plant hormones (a group of lignans with estrogenic activity). In addition to the hormonal effect, flax seed has many other benefits for female body properties (antitumor, body cleansing, antioxidant properties...). Ground flax seed is used with big amount liquids (like bran). It is added to porridge or eaten with honey. Therapeutic (maximum) dose is 2 tablespoons per day. The plant hormone lignan is also found in sesame and sunflower seeds. - legumes (green peas, beans, chickpeas) and primarily soybeans, as they contain isoflavonoids - a type of phytoestrogens. But doctors are increasingly saying that large amounts of soy are not good for the body. Moreover, according to the latest data, 90% of soybeans are genetically modified. And therefore, I especially want to highlight and add a type of leguminous crop - lentils. This is simply a unique product for women: lentils contain the maximum amount of protein for plant product; cooks for only 15-20 minutes; Lentils also contain tryptophan, which is converted into serotonin, which relieves depression. bran. - coffee. A study that was conducted with women who drank up to 500 ml of coffee per day showed that in 90% of those examined, estrogen levels were increased by 70%. Please pay attention to this, because... It is the increased level of estrogen that prevents women from losing excess weight in the lower abdomen and hips. Therefore, for coffee lovers who want to lose weight, quit drinking coffee; apricots are your number one task. Of all fruits, it has the highest content of the hormone lignan. Can be eaten fresh or dried (dried apricots). By the way, among the famous Hunza people, who are famous for their health and longevity, apricots are the main food throughout the year. This plant hormone is also found in products of animal origin, but at the moment all doctors clearly agree that it is undesirable to use them to increase hormone levels. This is due to the fact that all modern meat and milk comes with added hormones and contains various chemicals that promote the rapid growth of animals. Estrogens are also present in the following herbs: - sage; - hops; - ginseng root; - arnica; - chamomile; - Linden; - liquorice root.

Are cotton swabs dangerous for your ears? Most people use cosmetic sticks to remove wax from their ears, to “clean” them. However, in reality, by doing this they not only do not achieve any better results compared to washing their ears every day, but also create conditions for the development of many diseases. What is this connected with? Using cotton swabs to “clean” the external auditory canals, the patient not only removes wax from the areas adjacent to the eardrum, but also “clogs” it there, creating wax plugs for himself. Earwax, secreted by the glandular cells of the skin of the external auditory canal, has a protective function. It has antimicrobial and antifungal effects and is a natural mechanism for removing dust and foreign bodies from the external passage. The skin of the external auditory canal is extremely thin and delicate. The use of even such a seemingly delicate instrument as cotton swabs leads to the formation of scratches and abrasions on the skin. As a result of points 2 and 3, the patient independently creates very powerful preconditions for the colonization of the skin with microbes, and, first of all (including due to the widespread and uncontrolled use of antibiotics), fungi. It should also be taken into account that in the external auditory canal, especially in its deep parts, even under normal conditions, conditions are extremely favorable for the development of fungi and microbes: warm, dark and humid. Thus, “cleanliness lovers” very often develop external otitis, both fungal (otherwise known as otomycosis) and microbial, and sulfur plugs form. And in those who are especially diligent, an injury to the eardrum may occur. _________________________________________ It’s not for nothing that ENT doctors have a joke: it’s not without reason that nature has made it so that you can put a finger in your nose, but not in your ear. And, as you know, every joke has only a grain of joke. _________________________________________ Many people who care about the aesthetic side of the issue will probably angrily object, saying, how can we walk around with dirty ears now?! Of course not. Their doubts will be dispelled by the fact that, due to the anatomical structure, only the outer parts of the external auditory canal are accessible to visual inspection, especially at a distance (and rarely does anyone, except an ENT doctor, look very carefully into your ears) with the tip of your little finger during normal showering. If symptoms of hearing loss, ear congestion, or tinnitus appear, there is no need to wait for complications to develop; consult an ENT doctor.
