It is optimal to eat small portions 4\u20135 times a day. This approach reduces stress on the digestive system and helps prevent intense hunger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many women experience strong sugar cravings during their period. Treating yourself to sweets is acceptable, but moderation is key. Those with a sweet tooth can replace part of their daily sweets with prunes or dates \u2014 a healthier alternative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Instead of coffee or black tea, it is better to temporarily switch to herbal teas and infusions. Chamomile, mint, and lemon balm have calming effects, while ginger tea helps relieve nausea, which can occur with severe menstrual pain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Alcohol (even low-alcohol drinks), as well as spicy and highly seasoned foods, should be avoided. These products promote fluid retention in the body and increase swelling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whole milk (both cow\u2019s and goat\u2019s milk) is best replaced with plant-based or low-fat alternatives, as it can cause bloating and increase discomfort in the lower abdomen. For the same reason, it is recommended to avoid white cabbage, red cabbage, Chinese cabbage, and Savoy cabbage for 3\u20134 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">CraftOil products for a healthy and balanced diet<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.craftoil.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/\u041c\u0438\u043d\u0434\u0430\u043b\u044c-\u0434\u043b\u044f-\u0436\u0435\u043d\u0441\u043a\u043e\u0433\u043e-\u0437\u0434\u043e\u0440\u043e\u0432\u044c\u044f-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"336\" height=\"336\" src=\"https:\/\/www.craftoil.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/\u041c\u0438\u043d\u0434\u0430\u043b\u044c-\u0434\u043b\u044f-\u0436\u0435\u043d\u0441\u043a\u043e\u0433\u043e-\u0437\u0434\u043e\u0440\u043e\u0432\u044c\u044f-1.jpg\" alt=\"Almonds for women's health\" class=\"wp-image-45801\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.craftoil.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/\u041c\u0438\u043d\u0434\u0430\u043b\u044c-\u0434\u043b\u044f-\u0436\u0435\u043d\u0441\u043a\u043e\u0433\u043e-\u0437\u0434\u043e\u0440\u043e\u0432\u044c\u044f-1.jpg 336w, https:\/\/www.craftoil.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/\u041c\u0438\u043d\u0434\u0430\u043b\u044c-\u0434\u043b\u044f-\u0436\u0435\u043d\u0441\u043a\u043e\u0433\u043e-\u0437\u0434\u043e\u0440\u043e\u0432\u044c\u044f-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.craftoil.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/\u041c\u0438\u043d\u0434\u0430\u043b\u044c-\u0434\u043b\u044f-\u0436\u0435\u043d\u0441\u043a\u043e\u0433\u043e-\u0437\u0434\u043e\u0440\u043e\u0432\u044c\u044f-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.craftoil.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/\u041c\u0438\u043d\u0434\u0430\u043b\u044c-\u0434\u043b\u044f-\u0436\u0435\u043d\u0441\u043a\u043e\u0433\u043e-\u0437\u0434\u043e\u0440\u043e\u0432\u044c\u044f-1-100x100.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 336px) 100vw, 336px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>CraftOil offers a wide and constantly expanding range of artisan products, including oils, grains, nuts, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.craftoil.net\/en\/product\/boroshno-myhdaliu-craftoil\/\">flours of various types<\/a>.
