Menstrual Phase Ramen Soup
Kimchi adds probiotics, which are great for gut health, and the tangy flavor complements the richness of the soup.
Seaweed provides essential minerals like iodine and magnesium, which are supportive during menstruation.
Coconut aminos is a great gluten-free, soy-free alternative to soy sauce, but you can swap in low-sodium soy sauce if preferred.
Sesame oil gives an aromatic, warming flavor to the broth, while also offering healthy fats that help with hormone balance.
This soup can be kept in the fridge for 2-3 days, making it a great meal prep option.
