52. Cycle Nutrition 101: Foods Your Body Needs in Every Phase with Danika Vanderpyl

Hey friends! This week I'm so excited to introduce to you my guest on the show, Danika Vanderpyl! Danika is Certified in Holistic Nutrition, and shares all the goodness she knows about what foods, minerals and vitamins your body needs in every every phase of your menstrual cycle.

As women, we're not linear, robotic creatures that require one thing to fuel us all month long. Throughout each of the phases, our bodies need different things- different movement, self/ soul-care, socializing, nutrition. And this is exactly what Danika and I chat about in this episode.

The best part of it? In our conversation, she breaks it all down into more simple and bite-size strategies so you're not feeling extra overwhelmed. Because, really friend, you don't need more overwhelm than what you're already experiencing!

I'd highly encourage you to grab a notebook and pen and take notes! Also, don't forget to come into my Facebook group to grab the notes and snack recipes Danika shares in this episode!

Danika Vanderpyl is Certified in Holistic Nutrition with a passion for helping women making eating simple, energizing, and healthy. After facing her own digestive challenges, Danika transformed her favorite recipes into nutrient dense, low-sugar alternatives to heal her body. Now a food blogger she share these wholesome recipes at besidethemoutain.com.
