What I Eat In A Day For Hormonal Balance

Hi wonderful people! I want to stress that I’m not dismissing the pill or what it can do for people. It has many benefits, the main one being preventing unwanted births (which is huge!). My aim for this video wasn’t to sway people in one direction or another, although it might’ve seemed so with my experience. I wanted to give a bit of backstory as to why I was eating specific foods for hormonal balance, and why my hormones were out of whack. I was prescribed Yaz when I was very young to combat painful, heavy periods and acne. Looking back, I think we could’ve explored different options that would have been more appropriate for a 15/16 year old that wasn’t sexually active. The pill might be the right choice for some people and not for others, that is for each individual to decide on, hopefully with all the information needed to make a well-informed choice. For those of us who are not on the pill, or who have recently quit and have found our hormones affecting our way of life, these are some of the foods and rituals I have found help me, especially during that time of the month. This is just my experience, I’m not a doctor, I’m not a specialist. I am sharing what I have learned along the way in hopes that what I’m sharing might help you.

This is the first video in the Women Series in which I try to dive into all of the ways we can take charge of our own health and wellbeing, for a more fulfilling and happy life.

I wanted to start the series by talking about the foods I usually eat when I'm on my period, because it is one of the easiest ways to prevent or alleviate PMS symptoms, heavy periods, hormonal acne, etc. I'd love to hear what rituals, foods or practices you include or what you'd like to hear on future Women Series videos!
