Our PCOS Seed Cycling Kit is a carefully selected combination of four nutrient-rich seeds: flax seeds, pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds, and sunflower seeds. Seed cycling is a popular food-based wellness routine in which different seeds are consumed during different phases of the menstrual cycle.
This natural seed combo is suitable for women who want to add healthy fats, fiber, plant-based protein, minerals, and antioxidants to their daily diet. It can be used as part of a balanced lifestyle to support general women’s wellness, menstrual cycle care, digestion, skin health, and daily nourishment.
The menstrual cycle includes different phases. The follicular phase begins on the first day of the period and ends around ovulation, while the luteal phase starts after ovulation and usually lasts around 14 days before the next period.
Seed cycling is not a medical treatment. Research supporting direct hormone-balancing claims is still limited, but seeds are nutritious foods containing fiber, healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals.
