Health Hormone diet, Teal Ribbon Day
This new plan from nutritionist MICHELE CHEVALLEY HEDGE helps you shed kilos, add energy and feel a whole lot happier!
The 28-day Hormone Rebalance gives you the tools and tactics to balance your mood, energy and weight through equalising your hormones. By the end of the plan, you’ll be lighter, more vibrant and brimming with energy, and you’ll sleep better, too. It’s about creating a new skill set for confidently navigating your way through food choices.
Aim of the game
This plan is based on simple principles: to ease digestion and detoxify the liver by eating wholefoods. These are foods closest to their natural state and not made in a factory. Wholefoods are nutrient-dense carbs, vegetables, easily digestible proteins, low-sugar fruit and good fats free from added sugar, preservatives and additives. You’ll eliminate foods that are toxin-forming, difficult to digest or cause sensitivities or allergies. The aim is to gently eliminate excesses to help your body rejuvenate its filtering system, crank up your metabolism and bring your hormones back into balance.
Weeding & seeding
Weeding removes foods that don’t serve you, and seeding replaces them with foods that do. During the rebalance you’ll be eating three meals and two snacks each day.
