What on earth is an ovulation bowl? (I hear you ask), well it’s a recipe designed to incorporate a variety of the nutrients your body needs to support ovulation, the epitome of your menstrual cycle as a female.

When it comes to looking after our bodies, and nourishing our hormones, ovulation is the key player as it helps us as females produce the essential hormones we need to have a problem free period!

Eating in alignment with your cycle can have amazing benefits for your health, and is part of what’s now known as ‘cycle syncing’, where you nourish your body with foods that are supportive at each specific phase of your cycle.

This recipe was taken directly from my Cycle Syncing Crash Course Bundle Ovulation Recipe Book, if you want to check out more recipes and ways to live, eat and exercise in sync with your cycle check it out here!
