Book Description & Contents

Nutrition and Knowledge for Every Phase of Your Womanhood

Nourished Woman is our comprehensive nutrition and health guide for women – with 579 pages of knowledge and over 100 nutrient-rich recipes.

Your cycle, hormones, metabolism, digestion, sleep, and nutrition are not independent of each other. Nourished Woman helps you better understand these connections and consciously support your body through its different phases.

Among other things, you will learn more about cycle balance and hormones, thyroid and metabolism, gut health, stress and the nervous system, sleep, fertility, wanting to conceive, and important nutrients for women. The different life phases – from reproductive years through pregnancy and breastfeeding to perimenopause and menopause – are also covered.

In the nutrition section, we show you the role of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals, and nutrient-rich foods, and how you can combine them to create balanced meals for your everyday life.

And because knowledge only becomes truly valuable when it can be applied, you can expect over 100 recipes that support the female cycle. They are divided into follicular phase & ovulation and luteal phase & menstruation, and range from simple breakfast ideas and hearty main courses to soups, snacks, desserts, drinks, and nutrient-rich basics.

A book for women who view nutrition not as a short-term trend, but want to understand their bodies and nourish them well in the long term.

A book that truly explains the female body.

Hormones, cycles, and fertility are often viewed in isolation. At the same time, you're constantly encountering new dietary recommendations, restrictions, and supposed solutions. What of it is truly relevant? What does your body need? And how can this knowledge be implemented without diet becoming yet another chore?

Take a look inside the book

What does my body need during the different cycle phases?

From fortifying, nutrient-rich foods during the follicular phase and ovulation to warming, satisfying dishes during the luteal phase and menstruation – you'll learn what supports your body best and when.

What role does nutrition play in my female health?

Food provides the energy and building blocks your body needs for hormone production, ovulation, metabolism, and the nervous system. You'll learn why adequate nutrition and stable blood sugar are the foundation.

How do I recognize what's truly good for me?

Appetite, energy, mood, digestion, and cycle are valuable feedback from your body. This book will help you interpret these signals and make decisions beyond rigid dietary rules.

How do I easily get this knowledge onto my plate?

With over 100 nutrient-rich recipes and a simple plate formula of protein, carbohydrates, fat, and fiber, knowledge becomes practical for everyday life – without complicated plans or the pressure of perfection.

Nourished Woman is for you if you...

Why we wrote Nourished Woman

Nourished Woman was born from the desire to bring clarity back to all the information and myths surrounding women's health today.

Without pressure for perfection and, most importantly, without complicated rules.

Instead, with recipes and knowledge that support you in consciously nourishing yourself.

For over a year and a half, we researched, cooked, tested, photographed, designed, discarded, and rethought. The result is the book we had been searching for ourselves: well-founded knowledge and over 100 nutrient-rich recipes that provide guidance and can truly be integrated into your daily life.

Here’s what readers say about our Nourished Book Series

Also for men

Fertility is not just a woman's issue.

Nourished Woman is not exclusively written for women. Many fundamental principles in the book – from metabolism, stress, and sleep to digestion, nutrition, and nutrient supply – concern us all.

In addition, a separate chapter is dedicated to men's health and sperm quality – for men who want to better understand their health and view the desire to have children as a shared journey.

Do you have questions?

You can find all important answers about the book and shipping in our FAQ.

Book information

Who is Nourished Woman suitable for?

Nourished Woman is for women who want to understand their bodies holistically and nourish them specifically in everyday life – from puberty to menopause. The book is aimed at women with cycle or hormonal issues, exhaustion, PMS, skin or digestive problems, as well as anyone who wants to gain more energy, clarity and confidence regarding their nutrition.

Is the book also suitable for women who don't want children?

Yes, absolutely. In this book, fertility means much more than the desire to have children: cycle, ovulation, and hormones are considered important indicators of overall female health. That's why topics such as metabolism, thyroid, stress, nervous system, digestion, sleep, and nutrient-rich diet are central components of the book.

Is it also suitable for mothers?

Yes. The recipes are universal and can be cooked in the midst of family life for you, your partner, or the whole family. Pregnancy and breastfeeding are treated as important life stages. However, if you are looking for particularly comprehensive guidance for pregnancy, the postpartum period, and breastfeeding, "Nourished Mama" is the more specialized book.

What topics does the book cover?

Nourished Woman combines in-depth knowledge of women's health with over 100 nutrient-rich recipes. Topics covered include metabolism and thyroid, stress and the nervous system, digestion and gut health, liver and detoxification, sleep and exercise, menstrual phases and hormones, contraception, the various stages of a woman's life, pregnancy preparation, PCOS, endometriosis, nutrients, supplements, as well as men's health and sperm quality.

Are the recipes vegetarian or vegan?

This book is designed neither as a purely vegetarian nor as a vegan cookbook. Plant-based foods play an important role and vegetarian dishes are also included. However, the nutritional concept deliberately incorporates nutrient-dense animal foods such as eggs, dairy products, fish, meat, offal, and broths. Therefore, the book is only conditionally suitable for a purely vegan diet.

How complex are the recipes?

The selection ranges from quick breakfasts, snacks, drinks, and uncomplicated everyday meals to broths, ferments, and braised dishes that require a little more time. Many recipes involve few steps and can be easily integrated into daily life. This way, you'll find something for particularly busy days as well as for mindful meal prepping on the weekend.

Does the book deal with the topic "men's health"?

Yes. Nourished Woman includes a chapter on men's health and sperm quality. It covers topics such as the influence of diet, nutrient supply, stress, sleep, exercise, and environmental factors. This is because fertility is not solely a woman's concern, but a shared responsibility.

Shipping & Delivery

When will it be released and when will it be shipped?

The printed book is now available for pre-order and is expected to ship from October 2026. The e-book is already available and can be used immediately.

Do I get instant access to the eBook?

Yes. Immediately after purchase, you will receive access to the e-book and can start reading and trying out the recipes right away.

What happens if I order pre-orderable and available products together?

In this case, all products will be shipped together once the pre-ordered book is available – expected from October 2026. If you would like to receive readily available products sooner, please order them separately.
