The unwanting symptoms of heavy bleeding, pain, and painful cramps can really affect a woman’s quality of life. The specific cause of fibroids is unknown, but I believe there are few triggers that play a huge role in the development of fibroids. One being diet, I feel it’s a huge contributor.

According to healthline, having overweight or obesity increases your risk. While foods can’t treat or prevent fibroids, your daily diet and lifestyle may play a role in reducing your risk. Diet can help balance hormones that may trigger these growths. Certain foods may also help ease fibroid symptoms.

A plant based diet with plenty of fresh and cooked green vegetables, fresh fruit, legumes, and whole grains to your plate. Research shows that eating these foods regularly may help lower your risk for fibroids. On the other hand, eating beef, ham, lamb, and other red meat may raise your risk.
