Estrogen levels continue to rise and peak just after ovulation, so it is important to continue to reach for fiber- and antioxidant-rich foods during this phase to support the body’s production of a powerful antioxidant called glutathione, which helps support the liver in detoxifying. This ensures any excess estrogen can be metabolized (read: flushed out so that it doesn’t hang around your body) and help avoid excess build-up and in turn, PMS symptoms. Foods rich in vitamin C, such as lemon, help the body produce more glutathione through recycling.
