After relocating to Spain, Krystal witnessed a radical shift in her health and the health of her family following their diet and lifestyle transformation. A healthy anti-inflammatory diet and more relaxed lifestyle led Krystal to experience the best periods of her life and after witnessing her clients struggling with their own, was motivated to learn everything she could about hormone health and healthy periods.

What's happening when we have heavy periods and which hormones are behind it.
What can cause this type of hormonal imbalance.
What strategies can help alleviate heavy periods.
Her favourite foods/nutrients that can help reduce heavy periods.
