Ingredients Note:

These ingredients aren’t just tasty but also offer amazing benefits for your health too, just like:

• 1 cup sweet potato puree
  Sweet potatoes help your body make hormones like progesterone and support healthy periods. They also keep blood sugar steady, which helps balance hormones.
  
• 2 tablespoons cassava flour
  Cassava flour is good for your gut, which helps your body clear out extra estrogen. It also helps keep your energy and blood sugar levels steady.
  
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
  A little salt supports your adrenal glands, which help manage stress hormones. It also keeps your body’s fluids and hormones in balance.
