Knowing Seed Cycle Superfoods
Women’s hormones are a complex system that functions in a delicate balance. A slight hormone imbalance can become the underlying issue for several health concerns, including irregular periods, acne, PCOS, thyroid disorders, and chronic fatigue.
Seed cycling superfood is a science-based guide of eating specific seeds during the four phases of your menstrual cycle (menstrual, follicular, ovulatory, and luteal phases) to help promote the healthy balance of estrogenic and progesterone levels. It’s the best & easiest way to balance your hormones in a gentle, yet effective way. Our holistic seed cycling superfoods support balanced hormone levels, reduces PMS symptoms, boosts fertility and much more!
Knowing your Phase Cycles
One day you’re Bubbles, and the next you’re Buttercup. Do you feel the same every single day of the month? Science says probably not, and your cycle has a lot to do with that! Your hormones ebb and flow every day, and that’s a good thing. Estrogen rising, pep in your step. Progesterone rising, sunshiny days. Estrogen and progesterone dip; Well, that’s what happens right before your period with all your mood swings!
The four phases describe the natural fluctuations in our hormones that make ovulation and menstruation possible. Think of them as seasons or moods! Changing hormones results in changing nutrient needs and that’s where we come in with our Seed Cycling Superfoods!

Phase 4
Luteal
