Cycle syncing is so hot right now; & I’m here for it. I’ve been seed cycling for years in this doctor’s kitchen, but lately (since having bb nash) I’ve been leaning into more advanced cycle syncing practices including ‘oil cycling’, supplement, exercise, food & fasting protocols based on my cycle. An easy way to start working cycle syncing into your meal prep is to whip up quick & easy dips that feature the foods & nutrients to support hormones through each phase of your cycle; all you need is a food processor + a few ingredients to build healthy hormones from your kitchen.
a ‘dip’ for each phase of your cycle (recipes here: https://www.thisdoctorskitchen.com/dips-for-cycle-syncing/);
- follicular (day 1 - 14) flax cookie dough dip (yes you can bake it); rich in phytoestrogens to support follicle development.
- ovulation (day 12 - 16) super garlicky guacamole; avocado for ovarian antioxidant + loads of raw garlic- known to boost fertility when taken fresh daily before ovulation.
- luteal phase dip (day 15 - 28) sweet sesame dip; features tahini to support progesterone levels.
- me**es macadamia dip; rich in magnesium, which helps relax muscles & reduce cramping, they contain high levels of antioxidants that combat inflammation that spikes during me**es.
