3 supps to protect your lady fierce
I try to be Wonder Woman 24/7, and I definitely go through times when I’m not feeling my fiercest self. Unmotivated to go to the gym, feeling foggy and sloth-ish, low libido, shitty moods, off-balance hormones… the list goes on. And, that off feeling that can be DIFFICULT to kick. But I usually can feel it coming on and use my favorite remedies from mother nature to nip it in the bud.
I keep these 3 female health remedies in my arsenal:
maca
an ancient plant known scientifically as Lepidium meyenii and in the same fam as some of our favorite cruciferous veggies — broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, kale. We love this super powder, created from the plant’s root, and it’s earthy, nutty flavor profile. This root is high in vitamins and minerals and also contains the plant compounds glucosinolates and polyphenols.
