1. Refined Sugar

  • Why it’s harmful: Causes blood sugar spikes → increased insulin → disrupts estrogen and progesterone levels.

  • What it can lead to: PMS, PCOS symptoms, mood swings, acne, weight gain.

  • Common sources: Soda, candy, pastries, sweetened coffee, flavored yogurts.

2. Refined Carbs (White Flour, Pasta, etc.)

  • Why it’s harmful: Quickly turn into sugar in your body → insulin resistance → hormonal chaos.

  • What it can lead to: Fatigue, cravings, irregular cycles, and worsened PCOS.

  • Common sources: White bread, pasta, pastries, crackers, white rice.

3. Alcohol

  • Why it’s harmful: Disrupts liver detox (needed for hormone balance), raises estrogen, and increases cortisol.

  • What it can lead to: Worsened PMS, sleep issues, estrogen dominance, mood swings.

  • Especially risky for: Women with PCOS, thyroid issues, or perimenopause.

4. Dairy (for some women)

  • Why it’s harmful: Can raise insulin and IGF-1, which influence estrogen/testosterone levels.

  • What it can lead to: Acne, bloating, irregular cycles.

  • More problematic: In conventional, non-organic dairy (may contain added hormones or antibiotics).

5. Processed & Packaged Foods

  • Why it’s harmful: Often full of trans fats, additives, and chemicals that mimic estrogen (xenoestrogens).

  • What it can lead to: Estrogen dominance, inflammation, fertility struggles.

  • Examples: Chips, frozen meals, processed meats, instant noodles, fast food.

A group of people is gathered in an indoor space, sitting on yoga mats in what appears to be a guided meditation or yoga session. The room is spacious with industrial design elements such as exposed beams and large windows. There is a person seated on a stage facing the group, likely leading the session. Potted plants and sound equipment are present on the stage, creating a serene yet focused atmosphere.
