This week, focus on pairing carbs with protein — here’s why it matters for your hormones! 🍎🥚
Eating carbs alone causes:
⚡ Blood sugar spikes & crashes
🍪 Midday cravings
😣 Mood dips
💛 Extra belly fat (especially in perimenopause!)
Pairing carbs with protein slows digestion and keeps your blood sugar steady. That means:
✅ More consistent energy
✅ Fewer cravings
✅ Better mood
✅ Less fat storage
Simple swaps to try:
Apple + nut butter
Crackers + turkey
oatmeal with protein powder
Toast with eggs or sassage
You don’t have to cut carbs — just pair them with protein for a small change with big results !
