Have you heard of endometriosis? Did you know that endometriosis affects 1 in 9 women?

I had barely heard of it before being diagnosed a year ago. I am sharing this with you to bring awareness this March for #endometriosisawarenessmonth and to remind you that painful periods are something that should always be investigated.

This little smoothie is packed with fibre and antioxidants. It includes chlorella, which is excellent to add to your diet when you are looking to increase your iron intake. Kiwi contains actinidain, a digestive enzyme that can help with bloating. Pineapples, on top of being one of the most delicious fruits that exist, in my opinion, also contain a digestive enzyme called bromelain.

Let me know if you decide to include this delicious and nourishing smoothie in your PMS self-care tool kit.
