✨Episode 3 – Eat for Your Hormones: Ovulation Energy Bowl 🌼

💃Ovulation is your most gynamic, happy, high energy phase.

During ovulation, your metabolism is high and also your pitta, so if you don't consume high satiety foods you'll higher cravings and might end up eating junk more! You also need to be avoiding too spicy, too oily foods during this time otherwise it may aggrevate your pitta too much to disturb your cycle, also resulting in irritation, heartburn, and reflux.
