How Seed Cycling Works:
1. Follicular Phase (Days 1-14):
– Seeds: Flaxseeds and pumpkin seeds.
– Benefits: Flaxseeds are rich in lignans, which can help regulate estrogen levels. Pumpkin seeds provide zinc and magnesium, supporting hormonal balance.
2. Luteal Phase (Days 15-28):
– Seeds: Sunflower seeds and sesame seeds.
– Benefits: Sunflower seeds are high in vitamin E, which can support progesterone production. Sesame seeds contain phytoestrogens that may help balance hormones.
How to Incorporate Seed Cycling:
– Daily Intake: Aim for 1-2 tablespoons of each type of seed, ground for better absorption. You can add them to smoothies, yogurt, oatmeal, or salads.
– Consistency: Follow the cycle each month to help promote hormonal balance over time.
