Seed Cycling Recipes (2024)

These seed cycling recipes are packed with hormone balancing powerhouse seeds like chia, flax, hemp, sesame, sunflower, and pumpkin seeds.

Hi, friends!

I can’t believe it’s been almost three years since I shared about seed cycling and how I healed my 5-year long amenorrhea.

I find hormones fascinating, a little bit like finding the unique code that needs to be cracked to unleash every woman’s potential for optimal health. Nowadays, I find myself talking to just about every single client about their hormones. I find myself educating on the pros and cons of birth control (based on what I learned in this is your brain on birth control book), empowering women to understand their fertility and take charge of their hormones.

And of course, using food and exercise changes to help women understand how they can stop fighting their hormones and make their hormones work for them.

One of the ways to use nutrition to help nudge your hormones in the right direction is seed cycling. I initially wrote about seed cycling in this post and I also posted a post as well. Since I’ve been back on the seed cycling train (after a long break during pregnancy and breastfeeding) I wanted to share some of my favorite seed cycling recipes I’ve developed over the years with you today!

Note – generally I don’t recommend seed cycling if you are birth control or in menopause, just because it will be somewhat ineffective. However, that doesn’t mean you can’t try any of the recipes below! These recipes are still packed with inflammation-fighting and filling healthy fats that are bursting with nourishment, so even if you aren’t seed cycling, you can still make these healthy recipes!
