Why This Supports Women’s Hormone & Wellness Health:
This frozen yogurt bark is loaded with nutrients that love your hormones. Dairy-free yogurt offers gut-friendly probiotics that support estrogen metabolism and mood regulation. Flaxseed and chia are rich in lignans, fiber, and omega-3s, helping to balance estrogen levels and reduce inflammation. Pumpkin seeds provide essential minerals like zinc and magnesium, which are vital for thyroid support, stress resilience, and hormone production. Protein powder helps stabilize blood sugar and supports muscle and neurotransmitter function, while cinnamon and cardamom add anti-inflammatory benefits. This no-bake snack is cooling, satiating, and crafted to help you feel nourished, calm, and balanced throughout the day.
Storage Tips:
- Store bark in a sealed container in the freezer for up to 2 months.
- Best enjoyed straight from the freezer to maintain its texture and flavor.
- If left out too long, it will soften—so break into pieces and store individually for easy grab-and-go snacking.
