This is the steak I make whenever my period is either coming up or has arrived or anytime I feel low-energy, crampy, or like my body needs some serious menstrual nourishment. Grass-fed steak is rich in heme iron, B12, zinc + omega-3s, which help with energy, hormonal balance, cramping and mood during menstruation.

The chimichurri is blended with collagen, adding glycine + proline to support gut lining repair, calm inflammation, and relax the nervous system which is everything I am needing when I want to support my period.
