What I eat during that time of the month according to TCM 😊

i'm indian and telugu (from a certain region in southern india) and we have "hot" and "cold" foods too and it was so fascinating when i realized chinese foods are categorized in a similar way too, especially because i could never explain it to people from other cultures

Hot and cold foods is a chinese way of sorting different foods by its function and effect on the body, not to be mistaken with the temperature of foods. For example: dragonfruit is considered hot.

that breakfast is basically exactly what i had last week on a budget 😪 bury me with sweet potatoes

Hot food is the best, but I definitely don't feel like cooking when I'm on my period.
I'm glued to my heating pad during it, you're just missing chocolate and a bottle of ibuprofen lol.

Just a heads up, phytoestrogens can make cramps alot worst by raising estrogen level and unfortunately soy is full of phytoestrogens. I have endo and that advice has been so helpful and I wanted to share it with other incase it helps them as well.
