Looking for way to support your hormones? Brussel sprouts are those little green gems that often only make an appearance during holiday meals. Here today, I am going to give 4 reasons why they should be a daily addition to your everyday meals.
Brussels sprouts belong to the cruciferous family of vegetables, alongside cabbage, kale, broccoli, and cauliflower.
Here’s how this vegetable can help you:
1. Detox Support: Brussel sprouts are rich in glucosinolates, which helps your liver clear out excess hormones, especially estrogen. This keeps your hormone levels balanced.
2. Estrogen Balance: Indole-3-carbinol is found n Brussel sprouts which aid in healthy estrogen metabolism. This can help manage PMS and reduce estrogen dominance.
3. Anti-Inflammatory Power: Chronic inflammation can disrupt hormonal balance. Brussel sprouts are full of antioxidants and vitamins C and K that fight inflammation and support overall hormonal health.
4. Fibre Boost: The high fibre content helps your body eliminate toxin and excess hormones through the digestion.
Whether you enjoy them raw, steamed or roasted, Brussel sprouts are a fantastic addition to your diet for natural hormone support. Give them a try and see the difference they can make!
