Period symptoms are largely uncomfortable. Cramps, nausea, bloating etc. can really be uncomfortable and this is because your hormones are going through major changes. They actually go through fluctuations to make way for your period and these fluctuations can be managed to help make it much smoother.

There are a few ways to balance your hormones to make this fluctuations less daunting. One way to do this is by checking the foods you consume before your period starts. One of these include consuming healthy fats. Some sources of healthy fats are Nuts, Avocado and Olive Oil. Our focus today is on Nuts and this was conveniently provided in your #OctoberBox.
