Evidence-based guidance on eating for endometriosis—optimize gut health, reduce inflammation, and plan nourishing meals. Find practical tips, meal guides, and science-backed strategies to help manage symptoms and support energy.
Nutrition plays an important role in managing inflammation, gut function, hormonal balance, and energy regulation—all key systems affected by endometriosis. Dietary patterns that emphasize whole foods, anti-inflammatory nutrients, and balanced blood sugar can help reduce flare intensity and improve overall resilience. The Anti-Inflammatory Diet offers a structured way to lower inflammatory cytokines that contribute to pelvic pain, while strategies from Gut Health support the microbiome and estrogen metabolism, two pathways closely linked to symptoms.
Many people also benefit from personalized adjustments such as identifying food triggers, increasing fiber for bowel regularity, prioritizing omega-3 fats, and moderating ultra-processed foods. Practical tools like Meal Guides help translate these principles into everyday habits, whether managing flare days, preparing for surgery, or supporting long-term wellbeing.
