Overnight Oats
How These Ingredients Support Your Body: A Nutritional Breakdown
Old-fashioned oats: Whole grain providing complex carbohydrates and fiber, helping regulate blood sugar levels and prevent insulin spikes.
Unsweetened vanilla almond milk: Low in sugar and rich in vitamin E and magnesium, almond milk supports hormonal balance and reproductive health.
Plain Greek yogurt: High in protein and probiotics, Greek yogurt supports gut health, improved digestion, and nutrient absorption.
Chia seeds: High in omega-3 fatty acids and fiber, chia seeds support hormone production and balance by regulating blood sugar levels and aiding in detoxification processes.
Cinnamon: Helps regulate blood sugar levels and may improve insulin sensitivity, supporting overall hormone balance.
Maple syrup: While a sweetener, maple syrup in moderation doesn't directly impact hormones but can be used as a natural sweetener without causing significant spikes in blood sugar levels.
Vanilla protein powder: Provides amino acids necessary for hormone synthesis, muscle recovery and growth.
Toppings of choice (berries, nut butter, nuts, seeds, etc.): Berries are rich in antioxidants and fiber, while nuts and seeds provide healthy fats and protein, all of which support hormone production and balance.
