Ingredients

What's inside our follicular blend and why?

During this first half of our cycle, we want to help our body replenish the nutrients lost during our period (like iron, zinc and B12 from nettle leaf and pumpkin seeds). We also want to facilitate healthy estrogen metabolism, support our thyroid and supply key nutrients and fatty acids that help our body build hormones in the first place. Iodine in kelp helps support our thyroid function, and the high levels of zinc and magnesium in pumpkin seeds have been shown to alleviate PMS symptoms. Ground flax seeds are high in fiber and “lignans,” which help metabolize and eliminate excess estrogen from our system to keep us in balance

Pumpkin Seeds

Extra rich in magnesium and zinc, both of which have been shown to alleviate PMS symptoms from cramping to menstrual migraines

Flax Seeds

Sometimes our cycle is thrown off by excess or toxic estrogens in our environment. Flax seeds are packed with lignans, which cling onto these bad guys and can help eliminate them. They are also FULL of fiber, which helps keep digestion smooth. We use organic, raw flax seeds and freshly grind them so that you get their full benefits

Dried Nettle Leaf

During and after our periods, our body is looking to rebuild nutrients from blood loss. Nettle leaf is full of iron, which helps us replenish and supports our thyroid. They also contain B vitamins that are critical to our energy levels.

Sea Kelp

Kelp is among the richest natural sources of iodine, which is another mineral critical to normalizing our thyroid function and facilitating ovulation. Kelp and other Seaweeds have been used in naturopathic medicine for centuries, especially for women. We source high quality kelp harvested right here off the coast of California. It is certified organic and has been extensively tested for heavy metals and pesticides.

Dried Garlic/Onion

Garlic and onion are full of vitamins and antioxidants, but we're not going to lie... they also just taste really good. We source THE BEST garlic and onion from right here in California! Fully traceable, clean and full of flavor.

Sea Salt

We sampled sea salt from all over the world and landed on this flakey and delicious variety. Sea salt is full of minerals like potassium, iron and calcium, and we all know that no meal is complete without it.

Food can taste good and nourish our bodies

What's inside our luteal blend and why?

During this second half of our cycle, we might feel PMS symptoms start to creep in as our hormone levels drop. We want to focus on keeping our blood sugar steady and eating foods that aid digestion and support our liver in processing these hormones. Sunflower seeds are high in vitamin E, helping us boost progesterone levels, and selenium, which supports our liver. Sesame seeds have been shown to lower inflammation and are high in micronutrients like magnesium, vitamin B1 and B6. Rosemary helps support detoxification, while fennel and fenugreek aid digestion and keep things movin’ (when a rise in progesterone during this phase can slow things down).

Sunflower Seeds

Sunflower seeds lend a hand during the luteal phase with vitamin E, which helps us boost progesterone levels, and selenium, which supports our liver function.

Sesame Seeds

These little guys are full of magnesium, vitamin B1, B6 and zinc. They help us modulate inflammation and metabolize cholesterol. They are also high in lignans to modulate estrogen and progesterone levels. We freshly grind organic and raw sesame seeds so that you can fully absorb these nutrients.

Rosemary

Not only does it taste DELICIOUS, rosemary also contains a strong antioxidant called carnosol that has powerful anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties. Additionally, rosemary activates detoxification pathways, helping to restore balance to our hormone levels.

Fenugreek Seed

Fenugreek seeds are often used in India as a magic little "digestion aid" in curries. These seeds also contain the good kind of phytoestrogens, which are compounds that act like the hormone estrogen and can help to regulate ovulation in our bodies.

Fennel Seed

Fennel has been used for centuries to improve digestion and decrease gas and bloating. These seeds have also been shown to reduce menstrual discomfort and duration. We add them to our luteal blends for all of these reasons and to add a slightly sweet taste.

Dried Garlic & Onion

Garlic and onion are full of vitamins and antioxidants, but we're not going to lie... they also just taste really good. We source THE BEST garlic and onion from right here in California! Fully traceable, clean and full of flavor.

Sea Salt
