*Here are the basic principles underlying seed cycling.*

*Different Week, Different Hormone*

The female body is dominated by *estrogen for the first half of the cycle*. Estrogen encourages production of a thick endometrial lining to provide more fertile tissue for an embryo to implant. Days *15 to 28* in the cycle are dominated by progesterone, a steroid hormone that maintains the condition of the uterine lining, facilitates implantation of an embryo and prevents the eggs from over-maturing during pregnancy.

*Balancing Progesterone and Estrogen*

While *estrogen* and *progesterone* are key to a functioning cycle, the healthiest, most fertile body is one that is evenly balanced. Too little estrogen can lead to a thin uterine lining or a lack of *ovulation*; too much estrogen can *cause irregular periods, depression and PMS symptoms. A high level of estrogen has also been linked to *polycystic ovarian syndrome* (PCOS) *and endometriosis*. Progesterone deficiency has been linked to symptoms of PMS, *fatigue, irregular periods* and recurrent *miscarriages.* The hormone is essential for getting pregnant and sustaining *pregnancy.*

*Seeds Act as Natural Hormone Regulators*

Because the menstrual cycle is dominated by estrogen and progesterone, we can supplement our body’s *natural hormone production* with foods that contain the precursors to these hormones—in other words, the building blocks that will make them in the right proportions. Seeds—specifically pumpkin, sesame, sunflower and flax varieties—provide the ingredients for balanced hormone production, especially when paired intentionally throughout the month.

*Days 1–14: Seeds for Estrogen*

Flax and pumpkin seeds are excellent sources of omega-3 fatty acids, which allow the smooth transmission of hormones throughout the body. Flax also contains lignans, a family of plant compounds that blocks excess estrogen. The high zinc content in pumpkin seeds allows the body to release progesterone. The combination of these two processes allows for a balance between the two.

*Days 15–28: Seeds for Progesterone*

During the second half of the cycle,sesame seeds and sunflower seeds are a huge boon for progesterone balance. Sesame seeds ’high zinc content and the readily available selenium in sunflower seeds encourage the body to make progesterone. As in the first half of the cycle, the lignans in sesame seeds deter excess estrogen production.

*Seed Cycle Your Way to a Healthy Body*

Look for a raw, unsalted versions of each of the seeds mentioned above. For the first 14 days of your cycle, have one tablespoon each of *ground flax seeds* and (preferably) *ground pumpkin seeds daily*. In the latter half of your cycle, work in one tablespoon each of (preferably) *ground raw sesame seeds and sunflower seeds.* Grinding seeds, which breaks down the tough outer layers, makes their nutrients more easily accessible to the body. Add ground seeds to smoothies, salads or soups or simply stir them into water, milk or juice for a quick preparation.



*Keep in Mind..*

It’s worth noting that foods that promote one hormone also discourage production of the other. Aim to avoid *sunflower and sesam seeds* during the *first half of your cycle and *pumpkin and flax* seeds during the *second half.*

There is *Cacao* *maca* (my best😋)👈🏽Energizing Smoothie is a great vehicle for your seed regimen (maca, too, has been shown to be hormone regulating). Whip up a batch, and on days 1 -14, add *1 tbsp ground flax* meal and *1 tbsp pumpkin seeds*. On days 15–28, add *1 tbsp sesame seeds and *1 tbsp sunflower seeds.*
