Lady, this week we are talking about how to have a pain-free period and how to balance hormonally. Tune in to this episode to discover what foods contribute to painful periods that you should eliminate from your diet, the role of fiber, SHBD (sex hormone-binding globulin) and estrogen within the body, and how BMI (body mass index) is related to hormonal balance.
In this show I will go into the science behind a woman’s menstrual cycle, symptoms of PMS, and natural ways to keep your period pain-free. Later, I will speak to Dr. Neal Barnard, who is an Adjunct Associate Professor of Medicine at the George Washington University School of Medicine in Washington, D.C., and President of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, to gain more insight. -Xo Raw Girl
