In this episode of Eat More Carbs, Jenna and Reilly break down the essential framework for period recovery in 2026.

The conversation focuses on the physiological necessity of achieving a positive energy balance to signal safety to the endocrine system. Jenna and Reilly explain what eating for recovery actually looks like in practice, the biological signs that your recovery is upward trending, and why shifting out of a chronic energy deficit is the non-negotiable first step toward restoring a menstrual cycle and optimizing long term hormonal health.
