‘So many of us will benefit from Jess's work.’ – Ella Mills, founder of Deliciously Ella

Hormonal health is vital for both physical and mental wellbeing, as it influences every system in our bodies. Achieving optimal hormone health can feel like a bit of a minefield, but luckily, naturopathic nutritionist Jessica Shand has created this ultimate guide to achieving hormonal harmony through her food-as-medicine approach.

In over 75 delicious recipes – each designed to prioritise hormone balance and promote overall health – you’ll find a wealth of ingredients that nourish and heal from the inside out. From a plant-based protein ragù to replenish depleted stores of vitamins, to comforting traybakes crafted for your gut microbes and hearty broths that act as powerhouse elixirs – health has never been so comprehensive or so tasty!

The Hormone Balance Handbook is an empowering science-led guide with everything you need to know, including:

  • Over 75 delicious recipes, each tailored to the different phases of your cycle
  • How your hormones function and their impact on your body
  • How to address hormonal symptoms and health problems
  • A comprehensive cycle-syncing guide
  • A seed-cycling guide for balanced hormones
  • A 28-day hormone-balance meal plan to kickstart your journey

Welcome to your new hormone bible!
