Seed cycling is a natural way to balance hormone levels by eating different seeds at different times during the menstrual cycle. This is because seeds contain nutrients like vitamins, minerals, omega-3 fatty acids, and lignans that help support hormones. Seed cycling can be beneficial for people with essential fatty acid deficiencies from dietary restrictions or liver or GI issues. It can also be helpful in combination with reducing stress levels.
Essential fatty acids (EFAs) are considered “essential” because the human body cannot produce them on its own and therefore must obtain them from the diet to function properly; they are crucial for various bodily processes like maintaining cell membrane structure, regulating inflammation, supporting brain development, and ensuring healthy skin function.
So going to make these!!
