Today, Dr. AnnAlisa Behling shares her own story of conquering infertility and balancing her hormones. After introducing dimethylglycine supplements into her diet  she actually accomplished the improbable and conceived in her 40’s. Seeing such a dramatic shift in her own health inspired her to help women also suffering from hormonal imbalance. As a naturopathic doctor, she is helping women create balance in their mind, body and spirit to find peace and beauty within.  Even if your hormones are perfectly balanced, your gut, how you feel and your beliefs all must coalesce for optimal health.
