Endometriosis: Hormone Supportive Flax and Berry Smoothie
Why it's great for Endometriosis: Unsweetened almond milk: Dairy-free and gentle on inflammation; fortified versions may provide calcium and vitamin D. Banana: Provides potassium and natural sweetness; supports energy and gentle on digestion. Mixed berries (blueberries, raspberries): Rich in antioxidants (especially anthocyanins), which reduce oxidative stress and inflammation common in endometriosis. Ground flaxseed: High in lignans and omega-3s—supports estrogen balance and may reduce painful periods. Almond butter: Offers magnesium and healthy fats that support hormone production and calm the nervous system. Cinnamon: Stabilizes blood sugar levels, which helps regulate hormones. Plant-based protein powder (optional): Supports lean muscle and blood sugar balance; helps repair tissue and reduce cravings.
