hey dr. Burke here in this short video

we’re going to talk about hormonal

imbalance I’m going to give you some

very important principles there’s two

points I want to bring up on this number

one it takes the tremendous amount of

problem the body for a hormone to show

up out of balance so just because your

hormones aren’t are normal it doesn’t

really necessarily mean you’re fully

fully healthy okay so that’s step number

one especially with the adrenal gland

when the adrenal glands are just

dysfunctional yep literally you have to

be 90 percent that of that Drina husband

has to be dysfunctional and unless until

it shows up on a clinically so it

doesn’t show up until far in advanced

stages and there’s also subclinical

things which is things that are below

the radar and you’d have to look at all

the symptoms for a particular condition

not just blood tests a lot of times

people in their mind it unless they have

a blood test you know they’re healthy

unless the blood tests show abnormal

then they start worrying about it so you

might go to the doctor and they might go

okay come back in six months we’ll keep

checking this blood test over and over

and over until you have the condition

and then they treat it so that’s step

one you can’t always go just on hormone

tests okay number one number two let’s

pretend that you do have a hormone

imbalance so you have a deficiency of

the thyroid hormone whatever what do

people do they take a thyroid hormone

right it sounds logical but what causes

this problem that’s what’s missed you

have to ask what causes a slow thyroid

what causes a deficiency in an estrogen

or an excess of insulin or excess of

cortisol or any of these hormones that’s

really what’s missing in medicine is the

understanding of why what they do is

they treat it directly they treat the

hormone deficiency so if you’re low in a

hormone they’ll give you the hormone

prescription and then you’re imagining

supposed to be better

what then when you stop taking it you go

back to take it again doesn’t make sense

to me so let me give you a little

background number one hormones are

communications they’re messages just

like I’m communicating to you right now

you’re listening through your ears right

now you have little receptors here

and then you understand what I say and

then it collects and then you’re

supposed to respond back of course I

can’t see you so if I were if you were

in the room we could have a conversation

so if we’re having a conversation the

hormone would be the message is between

two people all right so they travel

through the blood and they connect into

these little tiny receptors that receive

that hormone and then do the function

whatever their Homans supposed to do so

the purpose of hormones is to create all

these effects in the body from going to

sleep to growing hair to being able to

burn fat all these different things so

you have 600 different hormones in the

body now this is what I’m going to talk

about the gland the gland is the thing

that makes the hormone it’s the thing

that sends the hormone is the thing that

receives the bio the feedback from this

hormone to connect the dots to have this

whole communication cycle this is the

thing that’s the most neglected it’s the

it’s the root of most of the hormonal

imbalances yet no one talks about the

gland so what I’m going to recommend the

next time you have a problem that’s

related to hormones is when you go to

your doctor ask him why instead of

taking just taking the hormone why is it

deficient because when you take a

hormone let’s say you took a hormone

it’s going to cause your gland not to

have to work anymore and it’s going to

create a dependency on that hormone and

that is why taking years of thyroid

hormone pills causes your own thyroid to

shrivel up and become dysfunctional so

that is a side effect of taking hormones

as your glands don’t have to work

anymore ok so we want to support the

gland what I like to do is I like to

instead of getting into diagnosing

hormonal stuff just take the Glam that

makes that hormone and support it

nutritionally you can even do there’s

some even acupressure techniques that

you can help the gland function better

because glands secrete hormones they’re

like mini muscles that send hormones

into the into the tissues so we want to

do things

to improve the root of the problem so

then the hormones can balance out

whatever what if it’s a increase or a

decrease it doesn’t make a difference we

want to help normalize this right here

so those are the two points that I want

you to understand about hormone

imbalance I hope this helped I will see

you in the next video
