Caffeine free Tiramisu

Caffein free Tiramisu for Menstruation

Try this decadently nourishing breakfast tiramisu to nourish your mind, body and soul in your menstruation phase - dw, it’s caffeine free! If conception has not occurred at this time the corpus luteum (a temporary gland structure responsible for the secretion of progesterone and small amounts of estrogen) is absorbed. This prompts a reduction in progesterone and estrogen release which triggers menstruation (our bleed). 

Our hormones reach their lowest levels at menstruation while we’re also losing essential micronutrients iron and zinc throughout our bleed. At this time it’s particularly important to focus on nutrient rich and blood sugar friendly food combinations as well as nourishing lifestyle practices such as restorative yoga, stretching, meditation, walks in nature and rest. We continue to experience a heightened metabolism making it important to continue to incorporate quality protein and nourishing fat with every meal to support balanced blood sugar and appetite satisfaction, and to also focus on foods rich in iron, vitamin c and zinc to support energy, mood, cognition and balanced nutritional levels.
