00:00 / 57:17:00

In this week’s episode we have a really interesting and insightful conversation with Le’Nise Brothers, the founder of Eat Love Move.

We explore several areas with Le’Nise including:

That a hormone imbalance and oestrogen dominance contribute to the growth of fibroids
How our diet and hair, body and cleaning products affect our hormones as well as stress and lack of sleep
The impact of food on our hormones, we touch on topics such as soy products, processed food and the power of vegetables, particularly green leafy vegetables and cruciferous vegetables
What changes we can make to our diet to reduce our risk of developing fibroids or assist with the symptoms of fibroids
The benefits of switching to organic feminine hygiene products
The work that Le’Nise carries out at Eat Love Move to support women with fibroids through her hormone health programme

During our discussion Le’Nise mentions a few resources which you might find useful. These include:

Think Dirty App – an app that allows you to easily learn about the potentially toxic ingredients in your cosmetics and personal care products
Skin Ninja – another app that gives users an easy way to find out what allergens or carcinogens are in skincare, cosmetics and personal care products
Chocolate for Basil – a good website for creative vegetarian recipes to help you introduce more vegetables into your diet
Sweet Potato Soul – more healthy food inspiration
Organic, non-toxic tampons and pads – these can be purchased at Be Prepared. Period. Some of the brands that Le’Nise mentions are Natacare and Organyc, and Le’Nise highly recommends that women try a menstrual cup
