I wasn’t always health-obsessed, but that all changed about four years ago. Growing up, I’d always had extremely painful periods, and medications didn’t do much to lessen the debilitating cramps, nausea, and full-body pain I’d experience. After several visits to my doctor and gynecologist, doing extensive research on my own, experiencing lots of trial and error, I found out that the root cause of my symptoms was hormonal imbalances. I knew that my unhealthy lifestyle habits had been a huge contributor and I decided to completely change my life around.

After creating a habit of tracking my food in a journal, I was able to adjust my dietary habits, learned to eat intuitively. Within a few months, my symptoms were reversed and about 6 months into my journey, I experienced my first ever easy period.
