Jodi-Lee Nutrition & Wellness is encouraging women to take control of their own health by introducing a new service to kick off 2025. Through hormone saliva testing, clients will discover their hormone imbalances and better plan a tailored and personalized approach to their wellness journey.
A Buckhorn-based holistic nutritionist and metabolic balance coach, Jodi Forestell helps clients in reaching their health goals through positive and sustainable changes.
Since hormones are often the root cause of a person feeling unwell — causing weight gain, fatigue, brain fog, insomnia, and more — offering saliva testing will assist Forestell in providing more personalized protocols that will help clients feel like themselves again.
The testing requires a vial to be filled with one teaspoon of saliva for which five hormones can be tested: estradiol, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, and cortisol. Based on the results, Forestell and the client will plan actionable steps towards balancing the hormones and improving health.
Such steps will include lifestyle changes working in consideration of the four pillars of health, which is comprised of personalized nutrition, exercise, sleep, and stress. Clients can also optionally incorporate into their wellness journey the intake of a professional-grade line of herbal supplements that cannot be found in natural health stores. With five different kinds to match individual needs, each supplement has eight to 10 herbal extracts that will work together towards hormone balance.
“We assume we become hormone-deficient as soon as we start to age, but that’s not always the case,” says Forestell. “It’s really important to not make assumptions, and to get the information before you start the journey of supporting your hormones.”
Riding the Wave of Menopause & Perimenopause webinarFor more information, Forestell is hosting a “Riding the Wave of Menopause & Perimenopause” webinar in collaboration with pharmacist and women’s health expert Kelly Nolan on Tuesday, January 28 beginning at 7 p.m. The free one-hour webinar will look at the effects of imbalanced hormones, why it’s important to test hormone imbalance, and how hormone saliva testing can help.
“Menopause is a crisis that affects our physical, emotional, and mental health,” says Forestell. “We want women to understand there are solutions for their perimenopause and their menopause challenges that fit their chemistry and will produce results. Sometimes we just don’t realize how good we can feel until we get there.”
With limited space available, the webinar will include time for a Q&A and will have a show-up bonus for all those in attendance. Visit jodileenutrition.myflodesk.com/findhormonalbalance to register.
