IN THIS LESSON
Smart Nutrition for Your Cycle gives practical, science-based advice on fueling your body to support your menstrual cycle and training.
The guide recommends balanced meals filled with vegetables, lean proteins, whole grains, and healthy fats, plus treats in moderation to maintain a positive relationship with food.
The guide explains how hormone shifts during your cycle affect metabolism, appetite, and cravings, noting the importance of iron and calorie intake. Key tips include using complex carbs for steady energy, limiting caffeine, and boosting magnesium, calcium, and B vitamins for symptom relief. It covers the benefits of smart supplementation (creatine, iron, omega-3s, magnesium, zinc) for strength, recovery, and hormonal health.
By understanding your body’s changing needs and fueling intentionally, you can train smarter, recover better, and feel empowered at every phase. Your cycle isn’t a limitation—it’s a source of strength when you align food, movement, and recovery to work with it, not against it.
