Summary

Are You Menstrual ? –
One of the most common questions we get is how to naturally increase progesterone. And to be honest, this is a loaded question. Often people are looking for a magical food or supplement to boost their progesterone levels, but in reality, there’s a lot more at play. 

There are 3 main areas we want to look at when supporting progesterone levels naturally that we will focus on in this episode:

  1. Metabolism: this is how your body makes energy--in order to make enough progesterone, we need to have enough energy. 
  2. Nourishment: both macronutrients (protein, fat, & cabr) and micronutrients (vitamins & minerals)
  3. Stress: this is a blanket term meant to cover many areas such as mental, emotional, and physical stressors

Let’s dig into each of these areas and teach you how to support healthy progesterone levels.

But before we dive into all that, I just want to welcome Emily back to the podcast.

And I'm just, I'm happy to have her back.

We've done a ton of interviews and I love the interviews. But I have to say, I am partial to our deep dive educational episodes. So you guys are going to get a lot more of those.

1:05.3

Thank you so much, Amanda. I'm super excited to be back. It was a great couple of months,

1:09.4

but I'm ready to dive back in

1:11.0

and just show up for all the women listening because I've missed this and I hope they have

too. So that said, we like Amanda said, we're going to be diving into an episode on progesterone

levels, which I know is a big topic for a lot of women. It was for me personally.

1:30.0

And it's one of those things that I feel like most of us just want this kind of miracle supplement

1:38.1

or food that we can use in order to boost our progesterone levels. Unfortunately, like everything else, it just is not that

1:46.0

simple. When it comes to progesterone, we really have to take like a bigger picture approach and look

1:50.5

at the whole body and how we got to levels of lower progesterone in the first place and really
