Some of the most common symptoms that women experience as they get older are related to brain function. It can become difficult to concentrate or focus. You may become increasingly forgetful. Anxiety and depression can take over your life.
If you haven’t already heard, the decline in your hormones as you age is a common culprit. The good news about that is that you can do something to correct it, naturally, without having to be put on a psychotropic drug that has negative side effects.
Depression
Did you know that research shows a definite connection between hypothyroidism and depression? It’s true – it has been well established that depression is a symptom of low thyroid function. People with depression, anxiety and psychiatric problems often have low levels of thyroid hormone. Remember, the root cause of depression does not lie in an antidepressant deficiency. Treating depression lies in treating the underlying cause, which often occurs with a decline in your thyroid function. Discover why hypothyroidism could be the cause of your depression.
Anxiety
We have all felt anxiety at certain times, but what about when it starts to become severe and happen more frequently? These feelings are very uncomfortable and can interfere with your daily life. Things that you never used to worry about can almost paralyze you with fear now. Why is this happening? Women are more likely to experience anxiety during times of hormonal fluctuation and decline. Here are five common hormone-related causes of anxiety in women.
Brain Fog and Memory Loss
Do you ever have those moments when you walk into a room and can’t remember why you’re there? Or you have trouble recalling names and just can’t seem to place where you left your car keys? Often it’s just a case of brain fog, and you don’t have to just live with it. Discover 10 common causes of brain fog and memory loss so that you can do something about it.
Besides hormone decline, there are some food items that are everywhere and hard to avoid. Don’t underestimate the negative effect that these three in particular can have on your mental health. Fortunately, you can start making lifestyle changes today to help eliminate these from your eating plan:
1. Splenda, NutraSweet
Did you know that artificial sweeteners are common in products that we use everyday including drinks, gum, protein powders, toothpaste, and packaged foods? But are they safe? Learn about the health consequences of common artificial sweeteners. You won’t ever want to use NutraSweet or Splenda again!

2. Gluten

What a lot of people don’t realize is the effect it can have on the brain and nervous system. Eliminating this one ingredient could possibly change your life for the better.

3. Sugar
We all love sugar, but is it really that bad for us? Yes, it is.
