Nourish Yourself With The Best Foods To Eat During The Luteal Phase

The luteal phase—the stretch of time between ovulation and your period—can bring mood changes, bloating, cravings, and fatigue. But small, thoughtful shifts in your diet can help you feel more balanced during this part of your cycle. In particular, certain foods can support your body through its natural hormone fluctuations.

This phase is driven by rising progesterone, a hormone that prepares the body for a potential pregnancy. Choosing whole, fiber-rich foods like lentils, leafy greens, and oats can help stabilize blood sugar and gently support hormonal balance. Healthy fats—like avocado, seeds, and olive oil—provide lasting energy, while staying hydrated with water and herbal teas such as chamomile or peppermint may soothe digestion and ease bloating.

At Saalt, we believe in cycle care that centers your comfort and values. Our period underwear is designed to adapt to your body—even during hormonal shifts—thanks to soft stretch, breathable fabric, and a body-friendly fit.
