Carbs have a TON of benefits for women and I loveee how they support balanced hormones
β¨ While they are an essential source of energy, they can also do things like support immune function, boost gut health, support metabolic function, and more.
π ββοΈ A low-carb diet can prevent ovulation or make ovulation very difficult. Low-carb can create a stress response in the body that can throw off our digestive health, hormone balance, and blood sugar (so no, I DONβT recommend Keto for most women!)
ππΌ No foods are βgoodβ or βbadβ but my favorite carbs for hormone health are slow burning carbs because they break down slowly in the body and arenβt likely to spike our insulin levels and throw off our sex hormones
WANT MORE INFO? On Episode 9 of the Get Cliterate podcast I dig even deeper into the role carbs play in our hormone health so go listen to that!
What is your favorite source of carbs? ππΌππΌ
