Uterine Fibroids
Your diet can work wonders in shrinking uterine fibroids. Therefore, knowing the foods that will help you reduce your tumor size, and the foods that make it worse, are essential to following a diet that fights fibroid.



An anti-uterine diet will help you eliminate toxins from your body and help reduce the size of your uterine fibroid. The food served on your daily table can greatly affect your health. It is important to know which foods can help you and which can make your problem worse. Let’s look at these different types of foods that are usually eaten every day and classify them as fibroid sacred or sinful.

Uterine fibroids:

These foods are especially helpful for your body when you have fibroids: -

  • Fiber-rich foods:

Fiber helps remove estrogen from the body. Because estrogen is considered one of the causes of uterine fibroids, eating beans, grains, pineapples, avocados, carrots, peas, and green leafy vegetables is important to keep estrogen levels in balance.

  • Water:

Water flushes out body impurities and can also reduce the pain associated with uterine fibroids.

  •  Iron:

Ferrous foods can prevent anemia after heavy bleeding caused by uterine fibroids. Beans, molasses, pumpkin and bitter gourd are rich in iron. Iron needs to be combined with vitamin C (ascorbic acid) to increase its absorption, so eat citrus fruits too!

  • "Whole" dishes:

The diet to fight fibroids must include whole grains, nuts and seeds. Whole foods high in lignins (wood chemical compounds) have antiestrogenic properties. Rye, flaxseed, oats, wheat, corn, rice and millet are foods high in lignin.

  • Bioflavonoids:

    Bioflavonoids are low-potency estrogens that are safe to eat when there are fibroids. Foods rich in bioflavonoids include tofu, beans, pinto beans, egg beans, lentils, slime beans, soybeans and soy milk.

    Uterine fibroid sinners:

    If there are saints, there are also sinners. In order to maintain an anti-fibroid diet, the following food groups should be avoided: -

    • Meat:

    Meat can intensify fibroid symptoms such as abdominal pain and bleeding. Meat must be taken in very small doses.

    • Pro-estrogen foods:

    As mentioned, estrogen is one of the causes of uterine fibroids. It is important to avoid foods that support growth. Foods made with growth hormones or pesticides may have estrogen-mimicking properties.

    • Coffee:

    Maybe removing the morning cup from Java can save you the pain after that. Coffee, even decaffeinated, contains phytoestrogen (natural estrogen) and should therefore be excluded from the diet.

    Fighting fibroids takes time, effort and discipline. Now that these dishes are on the table, it’s your choice. Remember that the perfect start to an anti-fibroid diet starts with daily choices.
