Functional nutrition for fertility, menstrual cycle health, and PCOS

Investigate your monthly report card

Today we’re investigating your monthly report card. This is about finding your baseline. You have to know exactly where your starting before you can map your destination.

  • How your period is a report card of your overall health

  • Observing cycle, period, and luteal phase length

  • Observing the quality of fluids, what to watch for

  • Observing symptoms correlated with your cycle

Remove the stressors

It is so important to remove the foods stressing the body because a stressed body is going to take resources that it would have used for reproductive functions, like having a healthy period, and use them to deal with stress.

We’ll cover the three biggest stressors

  • Sugar & refined carbohydrates, two significant ways they impact hormones, how to reduce them without feeling deprived

  • Vegetable oils, what they are, how they impact hormones and symptoms indicating you need better quality fats

  • Xenoestrogens, what they are, where they come from, how they impact hormones, how to remove them from your life

These are external forces that we can seek out that support healthy hormonal balance. Watch today’s lesson, download the worksheet, and comment on this video with the biggest insight or take away you’ve learned.  

We’re going to cover three areas that help the body today

  • Nutrition, signs indicating which nutrients your body needs

  • Detoxification, why your detox pathways must be open before you “do a detox”

  • Supporting modalities, how chiropractic, acupuncture, and vSteams support healthy hormones.
