In this episode, Dr. Danielle is joined by Caitlin Sullivan (@SpringToLifeMethod) to discuss how to support your body throughout the menstrual cycle with food. They break down each phase of the cycle and explain what is happening in the body during that phase. They also provide general recommendations for supporting hormones month-long, such as balancing blood sugar, prioritizing protein, and focusing on whole food sources. They discuss the benefits of seed cycling, liver support, and magnesium supplementation. They also touch on the importance of breakfast and building a balanced plate to set yourself up for a day of good eating.
