Now that we have covered the uniqueness of both the menstrual and the follicular phases, the next phase up is ovulation! For many women who track their cycle and know what phase they are in, ovulation is generally viewed as the favorite. From unbeatable energy to glowing skin, menstruating women tend to thrive during this time. 

The follicular phase is about growth–not just mentally with heightened creativity, physically with an increase in energy and mood, but internally as the body prepares to release an egg. It is our body’s internal spring and there are multiple ways we can support our mind and body through our food choices, movement, and intention setting. 

Menstruating women know firsthand how periods can affect mood, appetite, energy levels, and body temperature, but have you wondered what is actually going on inside the body? Periods are vital markers of health, and our bodies invite us to tune in through diet, exercise, and lifestyle.

Let’s start at the beginning with the menstrual phase!

Each phase of the hormonal cycle offers an opportunity to align our nutrition, movement, and lifestyle with our body's natural rhythms. By supporting our cycle, we cultivate balance and well-being from the inside out!

Creatine is a beneficial supplement that not only aids in increasing muscle mass and endurance, but also cuts down recovery time, improve cognition, and supports the immune and reproductive systems.

So you’ve heard of probiotics and prebiotics… but what are postbiotics? Dive in to learn about postbiotics and how their actions are powerhouses for our digestive system!

Bloating, gas, diarrhea, constipation, food intolerances, and even anxiety, depression, hormone imbalances, and skin issues are often linked to the health of your gut microbiome. A thriving gut is key to feeling your best, and one of the best ways to support it is by prioritizing probiotic and prebiotic-rich foods.
