How to build hormone-healthy meals

  1. Pick a protein
  2. Pick a fat
  3. Pick a quality carb (veggies where possible)

That’s it!!!

Of course, there doesn’t need to be only 3 ingredients per meal, but there certainly can be! I know when I’m time poor my meals can be as basic as that!

All herbs and spices can add the flavour you’re after (and sometimes salt & pepper will do the trick)!

You can add these to your liking, of course!!

Examples of Hormone-Healthy Meals

Did these inspire you? What did you think?

Did you also know that every recipe within every FlowFit or The PCOS Project nutrition plan works using this same basic principle too?

See? Told you it was as easy as 1, 2, 3!
