Here’s a quick guide to hormone-friendly foods 🍇🥑🍋 plus the essential oils that support them naturally 🌸💧👇

🔥 CORTISOL (Stress Hormone)

🍌 Banana, 🥑 Avocado, 🐟 Fatty Fish, 🌱 Spinach

These foods help calm your adrenal system & keep stress in check.

🌿 Essential oils that help? Lavender, Frankincense, and Clary Sage.
👉 They work by activating your parasympathetic nervous system (the “rest & digest” mode) and calming the stress response.

💃 ESTROGEN (Vital for Mood & Energy)

🥕 Carrots, 🥦 Cruciferous Veg, 🌱 Ground Flax, 🍵 Green Tea

These support healthy estrogen balance & metabolism.

🌸 Essential oils that help? Geranium, Fennel & Rose.
👉 They gently harmonise your cycle, support feminine energy, and are emotionally uplifting.

🌙 PROGESTERONE (Calming & Restorative)

🍊 Citrus, 🥚 Eggs, 🌰 Brazil Nuts, 🍲 Lentils

Progesterone helps with sleep, calm, and balancing estrogen.

🌿 Essential oils that help? Chamomile, Ylang Ylang & Sandalwood.
👉 They soothe the nervous system, reduce anxiety, and promote deeper rest.

😴 MELATONIN (Sleep & Body Clock)

🌰 Pistachios, 🐟 Sardines, 🍒 Goji Berries, 🍄 Mushrooms

These foods naturally boost your sleep hormone.

🌸 Essential oils that help? Lavender, Bergamot & Cedarwood.
👉 Inhaled through diffusers or balms, they signal to the brain that it’s time to wind down, supporting natural melatonin release.

✨ The magic lies in how essential oils interact with your limbic system (the emotional + hormone control centre in your brain). Within seconds of inhaling, messages are sent directly to your hypothalamus and pituitary gland—your hormone command centres. 🌈🧠

That’s why combining nourishing foods + aromatherapy is such a powerful duo for hormone harmony. 💕

🌿 We’ve been making hormone-supporting, soul-soothing blends for nearly 30 years at Herbs on the Hill—plastic free, handcrafted, and rooted in ancient herbal wisdom.
