Your entire system (hormones, brain, body) will run its best when you eat key nutrients to support your unique needs during each phase of your cycle. If you’ve ever noticed that you’re hungrier during certain weeks of the month or you tend to have major cravings (like carbs and sugar) during those times, then you’ve experienced your body’s shifting nutrition needs. Luckily, a well-rounded, clean diet that’s high in nutrients is literally your best tool for creating balanced health AND a balanced cycle. This leads to unhealthy fluctuations in your hormone levels, which can trigger a variety of symptoms. If your diet doesn’t supply enough energy or “materials” to make all the hormones you need, it’ll prioritize production of stress hormones first because they’re essential for survival. The energy and nutrients you obtain from your diet are the raw materials your body needs to produce hormones and properly fuel your body. Your brain is in constant communication with the rest of your body every day via your hormones. NUTRITION IS #1 when it comes to your hormones. WHY EATING FOR YOUR MENSTRUAL CYCLE MATTERS Need a more detailed plan with recipes, foods, supplements + lifestyle tips for each phase of your menstrual cycle in order to balance hormones + feel your best? Check out my 28-Day Hormone Balance Reset Plan. No matter where you’re at in life, I believe it’s information EVERY single woman should have access to, so that you have a CHOICE in how you want to feel every month, instead of suffering the symptoms without a sustainable solution. Not only is this knowledge important for beating PMS, but it’s crucial for overall health and hormone balance in women, ESPECIALLY when it comes to boosting fertility and preparing your body for a healthy pregnancy. Do you tend to view your period as a pain, an inconvenience or something to dread each month? While this mentality is common (and one I participated in myself for most of my life) it tends to put us into victim mode - as in it’s something that happens to us that we have almost no control over.īut truthfully, we have more control then we’re lead to believe, and by understanding what’s happening during each phase of our cycle with our hormones, we become empowered to practice habits that alleviate symptoms and truly benefit us (in almost every other aspect of our lives).
