24 Mar Avoid this over-eating trigger in Week 4
Trying to whittle down your weight or watch your health? Then try to avoid looking at fatty foods (such as doughnuts and ice cream) during your premenstrual Week 4, for instance, in magazines or on Pinterest. A recent study in the journal Brain Research reveals that your brain becomes more excited by the sight of calorie-rich foods during this phase of your cycle, making them more difficult to resist!
I'm the women's health journalist who pioneered the cycle-syncing and hormone awareness movement in 2005 with my groundbreaking, award-winning book, 28 Days: What Your Cycle Reveals About Your Moods, Health & Potential. I'm also the creator of the popular Hormone Horoscope Apps and Female Forecaster App. I founded Hormonology as a way to continue sharing hormone cycle education around the globe.
