Dr. Neal Malik breaks down the science and skepticism behind seed cycling, a trending natural approach aimed at supporting hormonal balance through diet. With a focus on women with PCOS, he highlights how specific seeds may influence estrogen and progesterone levels, offering a low-risk option worth exploring.


Quotes to ponder:


"Seed cycling is based on the idea that consuming specific types of seeds during different phases of a woman’s menstrual cycle will help support hormonal balance."
