Carrying excess weight is a leading factor in estrogen dominance. Estrogen is produced in the ovaries but it is also produced in adipose tissue (fat cells). This can perpetuate the cycle – the more estrogen dominant you are, the more fat on the hips and thighs because estrogen stimulates alpha receptors, which then stimulate fat cells to store fat. Smoothies aren’t just a summer fad. This breakfast blend of fruit, milk and seeds is full of protein, calcium and fiber to get your day started right.
