Diet, Menstrual Cycle, and Your Period

Hey Box Owners!!

We are officially passed our one year mark and we want to thank all of you for listening every week and supporting official box owner!

In each episode our host Mandii B covers a myriad of topics about sexual and reproductive health. This week, we are joined by a former official box owner partner and a previous guest of the show, Kate Morton MS, RD.

Kate is a hormone dieting and the CEO of @funk.it.wellness
a woman-owned menstrual health company focused on seed cycling and education on women’s health.

In this episode you’ll find out why Kate waters her plants with her period blood (6:00), the importance of magnesium and symptoms to identify possible deficiency (9:00), The characteristics of a healthy period (12:00), the 4 phases of your menstrual cycle (15:30), signs you shouldn’t ignore during your cycle (PMS vs PMDD) (26:00), and what you can do FOR FREE to help your menstrual cycle.

This episode is really insightful and we urge you to pay special attention during the 12:00 mark where Kate walks us through the characteristics of a healthy period:
– Texture: Similar to sugar water
– Clots: Should not be larger than the size of a dime
– Quantity: You should only bleed up to 16 teaspoons, yes… TEASPOONS (you can use a menstrual cup to measure how much you’re bleeding)
– Duration: 21-31 days is a normal “cycle”
