Ever wonder what seed cycling is and how it works? We're going to look at what seed cycles are, how they can relate to your menstrual cycle, and a really cool product called Moon Bites from Food Period.

When our hormones are not balanced, our menstrual cycle can be affected. Including cramping and/or irregular periods, among other symptoms, this can be caused by multiple factors. It can also make it more difficult to track and predict our ovulation. Seed cycling is a practice of using nutrition knowledge to our advantage for a natural, pill-free solution for better hormonal balance and improved menstrual cycles.

Seeds are generally great to eat anyway and it doesn't hurt to incorporate them into our daily diet. Utilizing specific benefits of certain seeds and timing them to the different phases in our menstrual cycle, seed cycling's purpose is to help balance hormones to improve period regularity.

The idea of syncing certain seeds to the menstrual cycle is really exciting to me, as a health coach who seeks natural solutions where I can. Pumpkin seeds, flax seeds, sunflower seeds, and sesame seeds are the main heroes of this trend. They contain varying levels of minerals and vitamins that help detox estrogen, reduce androgens, among other benefits.

The Food Period Moon Bites were really convenient because they saved me time from having to prepare my own seeds and made it easy to take them anywhere, even on the road.

I am here to provide you with the resources you need to take back control of your health because through education and empowerment, we find the ability to heal ourselves, get back to Mother Nature, and live in a nourished world.
