This comes from the fact that our hormones are different during each phase, and therefore, our needs, emotions, and energy levels are too – and this is completely normal. The big idea developed in the book is about cycle syncing: syncing your diet, exercise, and lifestyle around the four phases of the menstrual cycle (luteal, menstrual, follicular, and ovulatory). It explains how the endocrine system works and what influences it, from the food we eat to our lifestyle choices such as the sports activities we do or the beauty products we put on our skin. Content wise, I think it’s quite informative and covers some important basics in an easy to understand way.
Alisa keeps saying how she will explain this and that again and again and keeps going in circles about what she is going to do, when in fact she should just go straight to the point and explain it – which would make the book 1/3 of what it currently is. This, however, is purely due to the writing style. I have to start by saying that my overall rating for the book is only 3.5/5. One of the books that I kept seeing recommended on the topic – by what I’d say are trusted sources – has been this one so I really wanted to give it a try. When it comes to the topic of women’s health and hormonal balance, I don’t feel too informed so I am trying to build up my knowledge to make better and more informed decisions and also ask better questions next time I’m at the doctor’s. The second book I read in January was “ Woman Code” by Alisa Vitti.
As I shared in the past, accumulating knowledge on this topic is one of my 2021 goals, so today’s book review is WomanCode. Same as the first book I’ve read in 2020 (see review here), it’s also a book on the topic of health, but this time specifically focused on women’s health. Continuing to work through my 2021 reading list, I am ready to share my review of the second book I read in January.
