NATURAL vs. SYNTHETIC HORMONES
In healthy
individuals hormones exist in appropriate levels and in proper
balance with each other. The goal of ProactiveHealth is to
provide natural hormonal replacement to restore the balance and
levels of hormones to a healthy, normal level.
Natural hormones are produced from vegetable sources and are
chemically identical in structure to the hormones
produced by human body. Taking a natural hormone supplement to
restore a hormone already present in the body to an appropriate
level, is an alternative to synthetic hormone therapy. Boosting hormone levels
to a higher than normal range, in the belief that if a little is
good more is better, can result in aberrations and adverse side
effects.
Synthetic hormones are hormones that have been modified in some way
(different in chemical structure from hormones produced by the body)
or have been isolated from another animal species, for example, from
pregnant mare’s urine. Such hormones are not natural or
identical in molecular structure to the body’s natural
hormones. Synthetic hormones are foreign to the human body and can
have negative side effects.
ProactiveHealth believes in
this philosophy and delivers the highest quality natural hormones
to our customers. |
