Does it really balance hormones, or is it hype?

The carrot salad won’t “fix” your hormones overnight, but consistent use may help reduce estrogen dominance symptoms. Its fiber helps clear hormonal waste from your gut. Many people report clearer skin, improved mood, and lighter periods.

Can I eat it every day?

Yes, and that’s the point. It’s most effective when eaten consistently—daily or at least a few times per week. Eating it raw is key for the intended benefits.

What if I don’t like carrots?

Try swapping with shredded daikon or jicama, though these won't have the same fiber profile. You can also mix in grated beets or cabbage to vary flavor while still getting benefits.

Should I use coconut oil or olive oil?

Both work. Coconut oil has antimicrobial properties, while olive oil is great for healthy fats. Choose whichever suits your taste and digestion.

Can men eat this salad too?

Absolutely. Hormone health isn’t just a women’s issue. Men benefit from gut health and balanced estrogen levels as well.

Any side effects to worry about?

When your diet isn’t high in raw fiber, it’s smart to introduce it gradually to avoid digestive discomfort. Some people experience minor bloating at first. Drinking water and increasing fiber gradually helps.

What if I’m on medication for hormones?

Always talk to your doctor before making dietary changes, especially if you’re taking hormone-related medication. This salad is a food, not a treatment.

You can shred the carrots ahead of time, but add oil and vinegar fresh each day for best texture and flavor.
