Krystal Kirton is a leading hormone and reproductive health coach, whose Instagram page is just a WEALTH of incredible information and accessible tips and advice. In today’s episode, Krystal and I are diving into her amazing pool of knowledge to explore heavy periods and endometriosis: what causes them and what you can do about it.

Krystal Kirton is a certified nutrition coach, certified hormone health expert AND a trained fertility awareness educator. I know, I know. What can’t this woman do? She helps people from all over the world address their out of control period symptoms, from heavy bleeding, clotting, irregular cycles and pain, she does it all.

After relocating to Spain, Krystal witnessed a radical shift in her health and the health of her family following their diet and lifestyle transformation. A healthy anti-inflammatory diet and more relaxed lifestyle led Krystal to experience the best periods of her life and after witnessing her clients struggling with their own, was motivated to learn everything she could about hormone health and healthy periods.

In today’s episode we explore:

• What's happening when we have heavy periods and which hormones are behind it.

• What can cause this type of hormonal imbalance.

• What strategies can help alleviate heavy periods.

• Her favourite foods/nutrients that can help reduce heavy periods.

• How long it can take before you see results.
