Dark Chocolate Seed Pudding
Did you know about 50% of the US population is deficient in magnesium (Mg)?
Magnesium is needed for pretty much every function in the body!
It is needed to make proteins (everything that exists in the body is either a protein or is made by proteins)
It is needed to utilize energy (everything that happens in the body requires energy)
Mg needs go up especially when women are beginning a new cycle and increasing intake can aid in cramp relief.
No wonder women crave chocolate around this time in their cycle! Cacao is a wonderful source of magnesium. So today I wanted to share with you a super simple recipe that is rich in magnesium AND high-fiber seeds to help with hormonal balance.
