Menstrual Phase Supporting Brussels Sprouts

During the menstrual phase it’s best to stick to warm and comforting foods that are easy to digest. This means less raw salads and more soups, stews and other cooked and easy to digest foods. 

Since our body is putting a ton of work on shedding the uterine lining to prep for the next cycle it is important to support it by increasing our intake of protein [animal or plant-based] and healthy fats during this time.
