Raw fruits, vegetables, and herbs are the holy grail for supporting women’s hormone health and reducing inflammation. I love this filled with goodness raw beet slaw for fall. Never underestimate the power of beets; they stimulate our blood, speed up elimination, and support a healthy gut microbiome.
Knowing how to use food and habit intentionally helps us master and minimize symptoms and frustrations that keep us from looking and feeling our best. Raw fruits and vegetables are potent partners in managing hormone health and dialing-down inflammation. Enjoy this fresh beet slaw several times a week and notice how amazing you begin to feel.
