ROOT-CAUSE FOCUSED HORMONE SUPPORT
Cysters Support
About the
Formula
Formula #1: Metabolic Support
Metabolic Guard contains herbs like Ginger and Cinnamon that aid healthy insulin signaling and normal glucose metabolism, which are crucial when it comes to maintaining normal cycles. Because a normal glucose response is so important for balanced hormonal output on an ovarian level, this is the first pillar to address when it comes to healthy testosterone levels in those with cycle irregularity. This metabolism-supporting formula also contains L-Carnitine, which assists cellular energy by helping to convert fat to energy within the mitochondria. This core level of metabolic support is key for reproductive hormones that are responsible for cycle regularity and may be affected by changes in metabolic signaling. Designed to be taken before breakfast and lunch.*
The story
behind the formula
While working as a clinical herbalist during my schooling, I noticed I was drawn to helping clients with a specific pattern of cycle irregularity that was driven by metabolic function and stress, and sorely affected their quality of life. These women mirrored the pattern I was seeing and experiencing in my own body (as I was battling insulin signaling issues that affected my hormones, mood and more) and I felt deeply connected to their stories.
As I shared what I was learning from working with these clients with my online community, I realized there were thousands of women struggling, as ‘cysters’ around the world were looking for support.
After spending years thoroughly understanding the root cause factors within this pattern of imbalance (insulin signaling and glucose regulation, specific nutrient deficiencies, mitochondrial function and oxidative stress), I began to see firsthand that with the right lifestyle changes, nutrition, herbs and nutraceuticals, a true difference could be made in the lives of thousands of women struggling with their cycles.
We got busy designing a super-kit that could address both the hormonal and metabolic aspects of this picture. This comprehensive duo feels like the culmination of my clinical work, personal journey, and everything I’ve learned over the years by listening to the stories of women working hard to bring their bodies back into balance.*
