Fibrocystic Breasts, Mastalgia and Mastitis Care

First, if you find a lump in your breast, don’t just assume it’s benign and get it checked out.

Here are some at-home things you can try to support yourself if this is something that you are dealing with. I’ll try to keep this as brief as possible and not overwhelm you with all the facts.

Lifestyle:

  • Where loose-fitting bra’s
  • Exercise: not excessive, but at least 20 minutes of movement like walking daily. This is important to move the lymphatic system, which helps keep cysts from forming.
  • Lymphatic Yoga: https://lymphaticyoga.net/
  • Reducing xenoestrogens in your environment: PDF Download. High estrogen can exasperate these conditions.
  • Reducing Stress: Stress can exasperate Fibrocystic breasts. I posted a ton about managing stress last year, so check out the posts!

Metabolic Syndrome

I’ve been talking a lot about stress lately and how to deal with that, Now I’d like to focus on Metabolic Syndrome, Diabetes, and Insulin Resistance. Before becoming an herbalist, I had all the symptoms of Insulin Resistance and Metabolic Syndrome, I was well on my way to developing Prediabetes, which runs in my family! For me Intermittent Fasting (IF) was the quickest way to Balance the good/bad Cholesterol. My A1C and Glucose were ok but were great after I started IF. Now IF isn’t the best route for everyone and in fact I ended up getting high blood pressure due to not eating enough while intermittent fasting. So make sure you are getting in enough calories!!! As soon as I increased my calories the blood pressure normalized. Now as long as I keep my sugar intake in check, then everything stays good.

Certified Health and Life Coach!

We often hear about women going through life feeling stressed out, feeling fatigued and wanting to be a better, healthier self. They feel burnt out, on edge, and overwhelmed …. I solve that.

I found something that has changed my life and my career. I’m now a Certified Health Coach and Life Coach! I’ve been an Herbalist for a while, and I was doing great managing my stress with herbs. But going through my health and life coach course I learned so much more about conquering stress with lifestyle habits and recently sailed through one of the most stressful events of my life! You can read more about that here. Stress can affect your health in so many negative ways! A while back for me it was high blood pressure, but my blood pressure was pretty good through that whole time! It can also really tank your hormones. My hormones were very low before this program, and I created daily habits that supported me through menopause also! Despite the occasional hot flashes, I sailed right through to menopause! I’ve also learned lots of tips to get better control of my sugar cravings better and lose 15 pounds!

I’m excited to bring my health and life coach experience to my herbal practice. When I work with clients with chronic conditions, I’m often working with them to help them make changes to diet and lifestyle. Now I have better tools to support my clients through this process, so they can make the changes necessary to improve their own health in a fun and non-stressful way!

Too Much Sugar?

For me if I eat any processed sugar, (fruit is fine) I can’t lose any weight at all, it causes inflammation in me. If I continue eating it then my joints will start to hurt, and I might get brain fog. Many complaints can be traced back to too much sugar. Not just pain and inflammation, it could even be messing with hormone imbalances!

Most sources note sugar should be under no more than 5-10% of your calories. If you are consuming 2,000 calories a day, that is 24-48 grams of sugar a day. If you are consuming 1500 calories a day, that is 18-36 g of sugar a day.

My favorite candy bar is Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. 1 Package is 21g of sugar. That would be more than my allotted sugar for the day.

While I don’t drink soda, if I did, 1 soda would be more than my daily intake of sugar.

Let’s go through a typical “healthy day for me for sugars. Breakfast: Eggs, Bacon, Asparagus is 2g of sugar. Lunch: a Chicken Salad with Olive Garden Dressing 2g sugar, 1/2 cup blueberries and some nuts 15g. Dinner: Steak, Potatoes, Green Beans, 2-3 pc 75%+ Dark Chocolate 7g of sugar. So, the “healthy day’s” total is 26g of sugar. I typically eat around 1600-1800 calories a day so that would be around 7% of my calories was sugar. That’s eye opening! Imagine eating the Reese’s on top of a “non-healthy” eating day!!!

IF your wanting help in lowering your sugar intake here’s another article on that.
