We have some good news. Being women, we know how hectic it can be leading up to that time of the month, and thankfully we have come up with a cure in the form of food.

These Choc Berry Muffins are filled with ingredients that can assist a woman's body leading up to and during her period. Maca powder is an adaptogen which helps to stabalise hormones, and cacao powder has incredible levels of magnesium.

Add them into a bowl with a few other affordable ingredients, stick em in the oven and BAM – you’ve got yourself a weapon to defend yourself during the next psychotic hormonal moment. Feed these to your spouse, yourself, or a friend that is known to get a little crazy when it's around that time of the month. Not only that; these muffins are so versatile. You can make this recipe into a cake, or use it as a pancake mixture. The limits are endless!
