“You can’t trick the body. You must get to the cause if you want true healing.”

– Dr. Dan Yachter


If you’ve been feeling off — sluggish energy, brain fog, mood swings, or stubborn weight — your hormones might be sending you a message.


At Elevation Health in Lake Mary, FL, we teach patients that true wellness doesn’t come from chasing symptoms — it comes from restoring balance to the HPA-T axis (Hypothalamus → Pituitary → Adrenals → Thyroid).


Understanding this connection helps explain why so many people feel tired, anxious, or hormonally depleted despite “doing everything right."

The Stress-Hormone Connection

Your hypothalamus acts as your brain’s internal thermostat — constantly scanning for danger. When it senses stress (emotional, physical, or chemical), it signals your adrenals to release cortisol, your “fight-or-flight” hormone.


In small doses, cortisol is life-saving. But when stress is chronic, cortisol stays elevated, and your body shifts into survival mode.

That means less energy for digestion, healing, thyroid activity, and hormone production — the very systems that keep you thriving.


The result?

Fatigue, weight gain, low libido, irregular cycles, brain fog, and even sleep issues.


Thyroid Truths You Need to Know

The thyroid is like the body’s gas pedal — controlling metabolism, temperature, and energy.


But when stress and inflammation hijack the system, thyroid output drops.

Here’s what you can do to support it naturally:


Restore communication. Chiropractic adjustments keep the brain-to-body pathways open, reducing nervous system interference that affects thyroid and adrenal function.


Feed the thyroid. Minerals like iodine, selenium, zinc, and iron are essential for

hormone production.


Support the gut and liver. Over 80% of thyroid hormone activation happens in the gut and liver. If digestion or detoxification lag, your thyroid can’t do its job.



Hormones & Balance for Men and Women

Both men and women rely on balanced hormones for energy, focus, and emotional stability.


For men: Testosterone doesn’t have to drop with age. Chronic stress, sugar, and sleep deprivation can tank levels — but lifestyle and nutrient support can bring them back naturally.


For women: PMS, perimenopause, or menopausal symptoms are not “just part of aging.” Hormonal harmony starts with stress management, spinal alignment, and nutrient sufficiency.


UltraPlex Zinc contributes to immune strength, neurological health, growth, reproductive health, and sensory acuity, ensuring comprehensive well-being.


● Our team often recommends UltraPlex Complete Clean to support hormone signaling, brain clarity, and inflammation control.


Cortisol: The Hormone That Rules Them All

Cortisol isn’t the enemy — it’s your body’s alarm system. But when the alarm never shuts off, it drains every other hormone in your body.


This “cortisol steal” leads to fatigue, weight gain, irritability, and hormone depletion.


The fix? Calm the system, nourish the adrenals, and re-establish balance.

That’s where chiropractic care, restorative sleep, proper nutrition, and targeted supplementation like UltraPlex Adrenal Restore make all the difference.Your


Lifestyle Reset Plan

Here’s what we teach our patients to restore hormone health naturally:

1️⃣ Stay aligned. Regular chiropractic adjustments improve nerve communication and stress resilience.

2️⃣ Prioritize sleep. Deep, dark, quiet nights restore adrenal and thyroid function.

3️⃣ Move daily. Walking or light strength training balances insulin and cortisol.

4️⃣ Eat clean. Real foods, healthy fats, and plenty of fiber (30–50g/day).

5️⃣ Manage stress. Prayer, gratitude, nature, and breathwork build emotional resilience.

6️⃣ Support detox. Hydration, fiber, and UltraPlex Detox Formula aid hormone metabolism.

7️⃣ Test, don’t guess. DUTCH and blood testing reveal your full hormonal picture.


Personalized Hormone Testing

At Elevation Health, we go beyond basic labs. Using the DUTCH Test, we map your hormone patterns — cortisol rhythm, sex hormone metabolism, detox pathways, and nutrient needs.


Each patient receives a personalized plan built around lifestyle, chiropractic care, and clinically curated UltraPlex Supplements to restore natural hormone balance safely.


Final Thoughts

Your hormones don’t define you — they respond to you. Every meal, thought, and moment of rest is a message to your body.


When you live in alignment with how your body was designed, healing follows.
