Grandpa’s Favourite Paprika Shrimp
I just turned 32 last Thursday. Significant because I'm now old, but also because I celebrated without a phone call or visit from my Grandpa, who passed away recently and shared my birthday - March 21st. Even though we didn't get to see each other all that much I'd hear from him without fail yearly ... Read more about Grandpa’s Favourite Paprika Shrimp

![This recipe is one of my go-to #seedcycling breakfasts for #healthyhormones. These muffins contain a generous serving of flax seeds, which are a great source of lignans; a type of phytoestrogen. Phytoestrogens are nutrients that are structurally similar to the hormone estrogen. Due to this similarity lignans can act as female hormone normalizers, meaning they can have either estrogenic or anti-estrogenic effects in the body depending on your own estrogen levels. Flax seeds also contain a good dose of omega 3 fatty acids and fibre, both of which contribute to healthy hormones via their impact on the good bacteria in your digestive system. I hope you enjoy this #paleo & #keto recipe.

![One of the most important things to consider when optimizing your #fertilitydiet are your mitochondria. These are the power plants of the cell that turn the food you eat into energy. Mitochondrial health & ovary health go hand in hand since the ovaries have the highest concentration of #mitochondria in your entire body. Healthy ovaries require a ton of mitochondria to function efficiently and to repair DNA damage. Feeding your mitochondria a steady stream of nutrient-rich foods will give them the fuel they need to maintain healthy ovarian function, thereby improving your chances of getting pregnant. A direct correlation exists between the number of mitochondria within the oocyte and its likelihood of fertilization and these functional foods have been shown to support mitochondrial health within the ovaries [click #linkinbio for my latest article] 🌱🍅🥑🥥🍳✔️ #thisdoctorskitchen #fertilitysupport #hormoneimbalance #fertilityjourney](http://scontent-ort2-2.cdninstagram.com/vp/cca4e859fe313d6b41b384deac83c1e2/5D764EFB/t51.2885-15/e35/s320x320/55731916_312769712741657_4758791480799295756_n.jpg?_nc_ht=scontent-ort2-2.cdninstagram.com "One of the most important things to consider when optimizing your #fertilitydiet are your mitochondria.
