Probiotic foods are also recommended for healthy digestion and to support estrogen elimination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The following ingredients in the Pad Thai recipe are particularly noteworthy when it comes to supporting the follicular phase:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>tofu<\/strong>: soy products like tofu contain phytoestrogens, which are similar to the female sex hormone estrogen and can support the estrogen surge during the follicular phase. It is also a plant-based protein source that is helpful for muscle building and recovery.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>carrot<\/strong>: contains beta-carotene (a precursor to vitamin A), vitamins C, E, B vitamins, and iron.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>mung bean sprouts<\/strong>: contain vitamins A, C, E and B vitamins, as well as iron<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>egg<\/strong>: contains vitamins A and E, as well as iron and zinc.
