What To Eat for Each Phase

Your hormones shift every week — and your meals should, too.

Cycle syncing your food can help you reduce PMS, balance mood, and feel more energized (without the overwhelm).

I made you a free cheat sheet with the best foods for each phase:

🩸 Menstrual — replenish + restore

🌱 Follicular — energize + uplift

💖 Ovulatory — glow + detox

🌘 Luteal — soothe + ground

This is your gentle reminder: you don’t need a perfect routine.

Just a rhythm that honors you 💛
