Menstrual Cycle Nutrition

Women should align their eating patterns with their menstrual cycle for optimal health. During the luteal phase, a feasting period with increased carbohydrates is beneficial, while menstruation is an ideal time for fasting. Post-ovulation, it's important to consume more calories, especially as cravings increase, signaling the body’s needs. Understanding these hormonal shifts can enhance overall well-being, particularly during perimenopause and menopause.
