Food to avoid during your period ‼️

Salty snacks and sweets might be your period faves, but they could actually make cramps worse. Dr. Hoosna Haque, an OB-GYN, says foods high in meat, oil, sugar, and salt boost inflammation, which is a big no-no for cramps. Instead, try an anti-inflammatory diet.Basically, less inflammation = less pain, so eat foods that keep things flowing smoothly!

• Instead of red meat → Go for salmon or tofu (rich in omega-3s).

•Instead of chips → Try nuts or seeds (like almonds or chia seeds).

•Instead of sugary snacks → Grab berries or dark chocolate.

•Instead of processed oils → Use olive oil or avocado.

•Instead of salty snacks → Munch on veggies with hummus or air-popped popcorn.

By making these adjustments, you can help manage your period symptoms more effectively and improve your overall comfort during your cycle.
