Your body isn’t the same every week — and your nutrition shouldn’t be either.
Throughout your monthly Hormone cycle, shifting hormones change what your body needs most.
During your period, iron and omega-3s help replenish what’s lost and ease inflammation-driven cramps. As estrogen rises in your follicular phase, protein and B vitamins support energy and hormone metabolism at their peak. Around ovulation, zinc and antioxidants protect your cells during the body’s most oxidative moment. And in the luteal phase — the PMS window — Evening Primrose has been shown to reduce the PMS, while calcium, magnesium, and B6 are the three nutrients with the strongest clinical evidence for reducing mood shifts, bloating, and fatigue.
We made a quick guide on what nutrients to be on the look out for- and what foods contain them- during the different phases of your menstrual cycle.
