I am excited to present this blog collaboration with my client, Alaina, on fertility and the four stages each month. We had a lot of fun chatting about her journey healing her hormones and how The Bean Protocol supports this impressive monthly feat!

Beans and the Luteal Phase
In the first half of this phase, estrogen, testosterone, and progesterone are all active. As iterated in past installments, the soluble fiber in beans will continue to help mitigate and eliminate any excess hormones in your system. Assuming estrogen has tapered off, our “hormonal high” fades away into “hormonal silence.” The end of our luteal phase is perhaps the most sensitive time in our cycle; this is when we may feel most prone to symptoms of PMS.
I still eat beans 2 times per day and add husk 2x per day, but I got a bit more flexible with everything. At the moment I do have a small cup of matcha or black tea and fruit every day and, occasionally, I eat sugar. Although I love nuts, I don’t eat them often and I feel like I don’t need them for energy. I still cannot believe that just one coaching call with Unique and "a few beans“ can make such a difference in my overall health and how good I now feel. I really cannot recommend enough to give TBP a try!
Thank you so much for your work and how easy you make it for people to start TBP!
