- 💡 The Harmony Table is a program designed to support women hormonally through the different phases of their menstrual cycle.
- 🎯 It was created by three friends who realized their previous approaches to nutrition were not effectively supporting their bodies during various life stages like trying to conceive or postpartum recovery.
- ✅ The core concept is cycle-based eating, which tailors nutritional intake to the four distinct phases of a woman's cycle.
Nutritional Guidelines for Each Cycle Phase
- 🩸 Menstrual Phase: Focus on increasing iron and vitamin C, with suggestions like soups and more protein.
- 🌸 Follicular Phase: Incorporate foods rich in antioxidants, such as berries.
- 🥚 Ovulatory Phase: Emphasize salads and fish, rich in omega-3 fatty acids.
- ⚡ Luteal Phase: When energy levels may decrease, dark chocolate is recommended, along with other nutrient-dense foods.
