Here are the top foods you should add to your grocery shopping list
For energy
Dark leafy greens like spinach and kale. They are rich in iron, folate, and B12, which help beat fatigue and boost oxygen flow to cells.
To avoid the crash
Greek yoghurt or hummus. They are high-protein, low-glycemic snacks that keep blood sugar stable and energy consistent.
For hormone balance
Avocados, chia seeds and flaxseeds. A mix of healthy fats and fibre, they are good for hormone support and smoother cycles.
By incorporating these foods into your diet, you will be on your way to a healthier and happier life. Nourish your body with the right foods and enjoy overall well-being.
