Hormonal health, specific nutrients, vitamins, minerals, digestion... there are many questions relating to women's health. In this article, we focus on 7 key questions to help you better understand and navigate things better.
1) The links between hormonal health and energy
First of all, hormones control all bodily functions including energy level, mood, sleep and metabolism.
Example: Hormones linked to the menstrual cycle. Estrogen levels, which are highest during the follicular phase after menstruation, are associated with increased energy and improved endurance.
Hormonal health directly influences energy, as hormones like estrogen and insulin regulate our energy metabolism and mood. An imbalance can lead to fatigue and/or apathy.
It would be wise to review your lifestyle habits in order to maintain an optimal energy level; a balanced diet rich in nutrients and low glycemic index, regular physical activity such as walking and cycling to regulate stress hormones and improve morale, good stress management through rest and social relationships, as well as quality sleep, starting by reducing screen time before bed.3, 4, 6
ATP, our cellular fuel
Each human cell contains on average 1500 mitochondria which are involved in several essential functions, the main one of which is the production of ATP (Adenoside triphosphate).
In short, mitochondria (our cells) convert nutrients and oxygen into energy in the form of ATP. This is why we call them the “powerhouses of our cells”. Their primary mission is to transform carbohydrates and fatty acids in our diet, in addition to the oxygen we breathe, into energy. For this process to occur, all vitamins and minerals and all other nutrients (antioxidants) must be present for the mitochondria to produce ATP (energy). And this, at all times whether we are awake or asleep.3
During the Krebs cycle, several coenzymes are necessary for proper functioning, including vitamins B1, B2, B3, magnesium and lipoic acid (antioxidant)..3
2) Adrenal glands and women's health
The adrenal glands, located above the kidneys, are crucial for women because they produce hormones essential for metabolism, stress management, and the regulation of blood pressure and electrolytes. They also make small amounts of androgens (male hormones), estrogen and testosterone, which are important for female sexual function. Adrenal hormonal imbalances can cause symptoms like irregular periods, excessive hair growth (virilization), etc..1, 4 ,5
How to support the adrenal glands?
For the health of women's adrenal glands, it is important to have a diet rich in vitamin C (citrus fruits, kiwis) to help regulate cortisol, certain proteins, good fats for the synthesis of hormones and fiber via fruits and vegetables. Avoid or reduce your consumption of coffee, fast sugars and ultra-processed foods which can disrupt the adrenal balance.1, 4 ,5
3) What nutrients are essential for women's health?

"We need thirteen vitamins, and it is important that these thirteen vitamins are at the table!!! None will betray you, as long as they are sufficiently present in your body." Jean-Marie Magnien2
Vitamin B1
Vitamin B1 (thiamine) is essential for the proper functioning of carbohydrate energy metabolism, the nervous system and the heart muscle, participating in energy production, the transmission of nerve signals and the maintenance of normal heart function.2, 3, 4, 5
Vitamin B2
Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) offers many benefits, including energy production, maintenance of healthy skin and mucous membranes, normal vision, proper functioning of the nervous system, formation of red blood cells and induces antioxidant effects protecting cells from aging. It also contributes to iron metabolism and is essential for the activation of other B vitamins.2, 3, 4, 5
Vitamin B5
Vitamin B5, or pantothenic acid, is essential for normal energy metabolism, energy production, skin and hair health. It also promotes good intellectual health, contributes to the synthesis of hormones, helps with wound healing and cell regeneration.2, 3, 4, 5
Vitamin B6
Vitamin B6 helps the nervous system, metabolism, immune system, reduces PMS symptoms and improves mood.
In addition, it plays a role in sleep by promoting the conversion of tryptophan into serotonin which is transformed into melatonin. This hormone is at the origin of our biological rhythm of the day and night, promotes falling asleep and good quality sleep.2, 3, 4, 5
Vitamins B6 and B9
Vitamins B6 and B9 are important for hormonal regulation helping to balance estrogen and progesterone, which can improve mood and overall well-being.2, 3, 4, 5
Vitamin B9, B6, B12, valuable tools for our brain. A deficiency of these three vitamins causes the accumulation in the brain of a toxic molecule, homocysteine. This molecule is normally recycled into methionine which is an amino acid for proper brain function.2, 3, 4, 5
Vitamin B9 in the elderly
This vitamin, despite its importance in the elderly, is often deficient according to studies. 30% of senile dementias are linked to a deficiency of this vitamin.
It is also important for pregnant women and for the future of the baby.2, 3, 4, 5
Vitamin B12
Vitamin B12 is essential to women's health for the formation of red blood cells, the proper functioning of the nervous system and the synthesis of DNA, particularly crucial during pregnancy and breastfeeding for the development of the fetus. A deficiency can lead to fatigue, anemia and neurological disorders. Vegetarian or vegan women, as well as the elderly, are more at risk and must monitor their B12 intake, often through dietary supplements.2, 3, 4, 5
All B complex vitamins (B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B8, B9, B12) need magnesium to accomplish their mission. Magnesium deficiencies lower energy production.2, 3, 4, 5
Vitamin C
Vitamin C is an essential, water-soluble nutrient, naturally present in many fruits and vegetables. This vitamin performs many functions in the body, such as helping the immune system, wound healing, maintaining skin and bone health, helping with collagen formation and tissue growth and repair. Vitamin C is also a powerful antioxidant that helps cleanse or rid the body of harmful substances.
When the body is fighting an infection, it is important to increase the dosage of vitamin C daily. Taken regularly, it helps reduce the duration and severity of cold and flu symptoms.2, 3, 4, 5
The adrenal glands have a high concentration of vitamin C, which is essential for the synthesis of stress hormones. In addition, this vitamin is essential since it participates in several chemical reactions in the body.
- It ensures the synthesis of collagen for our skin, our joints, our lungs, etc.
- It is a powerful antioxidant against free radicals
- It is essential to support a strong immune system
- Menopause: Vitamin C reduces the number of hot flashes4, 5
- Etc.4, 5
Vitamin D
Vitamin D is essential for women's bone health and immune systems, and it is primarily produced through sun exposure, foods, and supplements. It is particularly beneficial for the prevention of osteoporosis, improving the absorption of calcium and phosphorus, as well as the functioning of the nervous system and muscles. Postmenopausal women may also benefit from the vitamin D and estrogen combination for bone health and prevention of metabolic syndrome.4, 5
Vitamin D plays a role in cortisol metabolism and activity.
At first glance, cortisol helps the body adapt to stress, but over time, that same high stress can lead to adrenal fatigue.1, 4 ,5
Vitamin E
Vitamin E plays an essential role in women's health by improving fertility and hormonal balance, relieving menstrual disorders, strengthening the immune system, protecting the skin and contributing to eye and cardiovascular health.2, 3, 4, 5
- Vitamin E can help reduce the duration and intensity of menstrual pain.
- It strengthens the skin barrier and helps maintain skin hydration, making it more supple and soft.
- It is found in vegetable oils, nuts, seeds, leafy green vegetables and fruits.2, 3, 4, 5
Magnesium
Magnesium is an essential mineral that plays a critical role in our body as it contributes to more than 300 biochemical reactions, such as DNA and protein synthesis, carbohydrate metabolism, energy production and cell signaling. It plays a role in antioxidant regeneration, makes bones stronger and healthier, modulates our perception of pain, and helps in the production of neurotransmitters that keep our brains happy and healthy.
Magnesium deficiency can lead to various health problems, which is why it is important to maintain adequate intake.2, 3, 4, 5
Magnesium contributes to sleep regulation and muscle relaxation. A magnesium deficiency can disrupt the sleep cycle, causing insomnia problems and difficulty falling asleep.
It plays an important role in the functioning of the nervous system because it is involved in the regulation of neurotransmitters including GABA which positively affect mood, anxiety and depression.2, 3, 4, 5
Magnesium is involved in reactions that ensure the mineral densification of bone.
Selenium
Selenium is an essential trace mineral for women's health, helping to strengthen the immune system, protect skin and hair, detoxify the body and support thyroid function. Selenium requirements are higher during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Adequate intake, through foods like nuts, fish and grains, is crucial to preventing deficiencies that can affect thyroid health and function.2, 3, 4, 5
Zinc
Zinc is an essential mineral for female health, playing a key role in the regulation of hormones (estrogen, progesterone) necessary for the menstrual cycle and fertility, and protecting oocytes. It may also relieve symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS), support postmenopausal bone density, improve skin health, and promote healthy fetal formation.
It is important to maintain adequate zinc intake through a diet rich in meats, seafood, and legumes, etc.
Additionally, zinc stabilizes the skin's sebum production and helps prevent acne. Zinc inhibits the testosterone 5-alpha-reductase enzyme, which is responsible for hair loss in women and men. Have you noticed small white spots on the nails, it is a sign of zinc deficiency.2, 3, 4, 5
Calcium
Bones need a diet rich in calcium.
This same calcium gives the bone its strength and helps it preserve its balance during the reconstruction process.
Note that vitamin D is necessary for the absorption of calcium. It does not bind calcium to the bone but facilitates its passage from the small intestine into the blood circulation. Its role as a calcium transporter is essential.2, 3, 4, 5
Calcium combined with magnesium reduces leg cramps, helps prevent constipation, prevents osteoporosis, helps cardiovascular function.2, 3, 4, 5
Collagen
Collagen for the health of the skin, digestive system, bones, joints, muscles, etc. Other elements are essential for making collagen: vitamin C and zinc.
4) How does the microbiota influence hormones and women's health?
75% of our immune system lives in our intestines
The microbiota is a set of microorganisms (bacteria, yeast, fungi) that inhabit our intestines. There are nearly 160 species of bacteria, for 10 trillion symbiotic microorganisms in the body that adhere to the intestinal mucosa of an adult. These “friendly” bacteria prevent the establishment of powerful microbes and form a protective barrier against unwanted organisms that could sneak into our blood. They complete the digestion of food, ensure a good capacity for assimilation of nutrients, including B complex vitamins and minerals, and they play an important role in modulating our immune system.2, 3, 8
The microbiota and our hormones
The microbiota influences hormonal health in a bidirectional manner: by regulating the production of sex hormones such as estrogen, and by participating in the conversion of stress hormones. An imbalance in the microbiota (dysbiosis) can lead to hormonal disorders such as endometriosis, PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome), fertility problems, but also changes linked to menopause.3, 4 ,5, 8
The microbiota ensures a good hormonal balance, necessary for male and female fertility. The vaginal microbiota, dominated by lactobacilli, maintains an acidic pH which protects against infections that can harm fertility.3, 4 ,5, 8
Factors that influence the rhythm of our intestinal transit:
- Diet: fiber intake (soluble and insoluble fiber)
- Water consumption
- Physical exercise
- Stress
- A slow metabolism
- Hormones: (i.e. premenstrual syndrome or during menopause, etc.)3, 4 ,5, 8
It is important to maintain good intestinal transit. Slow intestinal transit can lead to the proliferation of bad bacteria, resulting in bloating or gas.2, 3 4 ,5, 8
5) Iron deficiency or deficiency: why and what to eat?

Iron deficiency refers to a low level of iron in the body, while a deficiency is a more general term that can encompass both low iron without anemia and low iron with anemia (lack of red blood cells or hemoglobin). Iron deficiency is the most common cause of anemia, causing fatigue, shortness of breath and paleness, and is diagnosed by a blood test. It may be due to insufficient nutrition, blood loss or increased needs such as pregnancy, heavy menstruation. It is treated with iron supplementation.4, 6
Is it possible to have iron deficiency after menstruation, especially if periods are heavy?
It is possible to suffer from iron deficiency after menstruation, particularly if they are heavy. This monthly blood loss depletes the body's iron stores, which can lead to iron deficiency anemia (a deficiency in the body's iron stores). This heavy blood loss can lead to a loss of 2 to 4 mg of iron per day, an amount that is difficult to compensate for through diet alone.
Symptoms of iron deficiency anemia include fatigue and weakness, shortness of breath, dizziness, headache, paleness, etc.4, 5, 6
The rate of iron absorption in the intestine varies depending on several factors:
- When iron reserves decrease, its absorption rate increases and vice versa, that is to say when iron reserves in the body are high, its absorption rate decreases.
- Heme iron (animal source) is better absorbed than non-heme iron (plant source).
- Meat proteins and the presence of vitamin C increase the absorption of iron from plants.
- Polyphenols (wine), tannin (tea), coffee and certain proteins found in legumes reduce the absorption of non-heme iron.
- Certain foods high in fiber reduce iron absorption. Whole grain products, bran, soy and soy products contain phytates which bind to iron and limit its absorption.4, 5
It is possible to partially counteract the negative effect of foods that reduce iron absorption:
- by adding a source of vitamin C to each meal (orange fruits and dark green or orange vegetables)
- including a source of meat, fish or poultry with each meal
- avoiding coffee or tea with meals4, 5
6) How to support the immune system to overcome urinary and/or vaginal infections?
Urinary tract infections affect 80% of women at least once in their life. According to Sherry Torkos, pharmacist and author of "The Benefits of Berries", although the burning sensation, frequency and urgency of UTIs are not unique to women, they nevertheless represent a very large proportion of affected individuals. At least one infection affects half of women aged over 65 each year.
In general, urinary infections are caused by bacteria (the most common being E. Coli), frequently found in the vagina, colon and rectum, and introduced through the urethra (the tube that carries urine).5
To support the immune system and fight against urinary or vaginal infections, it is essential to drink plenty of water, practice good practice (wipe from front to back, urinate after each intercourse), wear cotton underwear, avoid perfumed products, and manage stress.
The addition of probiotics and a balanced diet can also help maintain a healthy microbiome and strengthen the immune system. One medicinal plant to consider is cranberry. The probiotics it contains can help prevent bacteria from sticking to the walls of the urinary tract.4, 5
7) Is there a link between skin problems and the menstrual cycle? And what to do?
The skin is the largest organ in the human body and protects us from the outside world. It is our first immune barrier. It allows the excretion of waste while ensuring the regulation of our body temperature and constitutes a gateway for sweat and sebum.
The majority of skin changes that occur during puberty and later in life are caused by small glands known as sebaceous glands. These generate and release a fatty substance called sebum. Receptors in sebaceous glands, like those in other areas of the skin, are sensitive to sex hormones.
There is a strong link between the menstrual cycle and skin problems, mainly acne, due to hormonal fluctuations like the drop in estrogen and the rise in testosterone before and during periods. The skin tends to produce more sebum before and during periods. Acne breakouts often occur during the premenstrual phase and periods.1, 4, 5, 9
Natural supplements for women's health: Living Alchemy products
Fermentation starts a life process that the company Living Alchemy uses to transform and perfect the active substances of living plants in each of its products.
You will benefit from millions of years of plant evolution with their nutrients, their active ingredients and you will use them in natural medicine.
The plants from the Living Alchemy company are organic, resulting from a long traditional fermentation, and manufactured in small batches. This fermentation takes place in a kombucha-kefir culture with diverse strains of therapeutic microorganisms (yeasts and bacteria). The final step, cold freeze-drying (dehydration), retains all of this life of activated (micro-organisms) and nutrients. And to preserve all this vitality, the encapsulation of the products is done slowly.10
The potential benefits of herbs are activated by fermentation:
- Complete bioavailability
- Increase in key therapeutic nutrients
- Essential enzyme intake
- Made from a living plant
They provide bioavailable vitamins and minerals, probiotics, beta glucans (action on the immune system), peptides (proteins), short-chain fatty acids, nucleotides, polyphenols (antioxidants), enzymes, etc.10
Your Female Probiotic Flora
Certain bacteria have essential functions for our immunity, so the slightest imbalance in our intestinal flora can have consequences on our health and lead to disease. Disorder which at first manifests itself discreetly, and if nothing changes, gets worse. The balance of the intestinal microbiota (intestinal flora) is the source of 80% of our immunity.2, 3, 10 ,12
Your Female Flora from Living Alchemy is a probiotic designed for women's health that combines a fermented kombucha-kefir culture with over 45 diverse strains of microorganisms, organic cranberry juice and roselle (hibiscus). This product aims to support digestive, vaginal and urinary health, as well as the immune system, by promoting a healthy microbiome (the collection of all microorganisms) and a balance of intestinal and vaginal flora in women of all ages.10 , 11, 12
- The Kefir-Kombucha symbiotic culture and prebiotics improve the balance of the intestinal flora.
- Cranberry helps prevent urinary tract infections in women by preventing bacteria, particularly E. Coli, from clinging to the walls of the urinary tract and bladder, thereby reducing the risk of cystitis.10 , 11, 12
- Roselle (hibiscus sabdariffa), for its part, contributes to the vaginal flora, supports the urinary system and strengthens the immune system. These two herbs combined can help maintain digestive, vaginal and urinary health. Their antioxidant properties can support cardiovascular health and the immune system and promote a healthy ecosystem for women's well-being.10 , 11, 12
- Immune strengthening: organic soy fermentation and its richness in prebiotics, probiotics and postbiotics contribute to the flourishing of the microbiome, which supports the immune system.10 , 11, 12
Living Iron for Women
The product Living Alchemy Women's Iron can improve several aspects of women's health with its fermented iron formula, including supporting red blood cell formation, preventing iron deficiency and anemia, boosting daily energy and providing better absorption, all without the common side effects of traditional iron supplements. It is designed for women with increased iron needs, such as those who are menstruating or pregnant and breastfeeding women.4 ,10 ,13, 14
Better bioavailability and tolerance
Koji fermentation makes iron easier to absorb and gentle on the stomach, reducing the side effects often associated with traditional iron supplements.10
Koji is the result of cultivating a microscopic fungus, Aspergillus oryzae, on a substrate rich in starch such as rice, barley or soy.10
During fermentation, the koji mushroom produces enzymes that break down carbohydrates and proteins in the substrate.
This decomposition enriches the substrate with nutrients such as vitamins, minerals and amino acids. It also creates beneficial compounds and increases mineral absorption.
The koji fermentation technique is an ancestral method used in Japan to produce foods and drinks such as sake, miso soup, soy sauce, mochi, etc.10
Living Iron for Women from Living Alchemy is suitable for women who have difficulty absorbing iron or are looking for a natural alternative to traditional iron supplements.4 ,10 ,13, 14
Daily Women +
Daily Women + from Living Alchemy is a multivitamin. It is part of a revolutionary product line packed with the power of activated, full-spectrum nutrients, derived from whole and fermented foods.
The advantage of using fermentation is that it increases the absorption of vitamins and minerals present in foods, plants and mushrooms from this multivitamin.
This innovative formula is designed to meet various essential needs. These nutrients become powerful, since they are highly absorbable.15, 16
