How Do I Get My Sizzle for Life Back?
Dopamine is where libido starts. It’s not only responsible for our level of sex drive, but also our general ability to set and meet our goals. It’s the neurotransmitter we need to feel desire, to feel content, and when it’s balanced we are less likely to fall into addictive patterns of behavior.

Autumn Soup Recipes Using Hormone Balancing and Gut Healing Bone Broth
Why Broth?
Broth or stock is an infusion-rich in mineral that is made from the bones of healthy animals that are boiled in water with herbs, spices, and veggies. Bone broth is what is known as a traditional or healing food that was made by our grandparents, great grandparents, and so on. Bone broth is nutrient dense and inexpensive to make.
