What is Code Red?

Periods are coming:CODE RED

At Medene, we imagined, built, launched the roll on that saves and allows you to stand up during this trying week that gets on your nerves and your morale.

Basically, Code Red is all-in-one. 💥 It's a combo of super-ingredients known to relieve menstruation. The best known ingredient is sage. It soothes and in addition it is anti-depressive (you will no longer cry in front of an action movie during your period). 😂 Thanks to its cocktail of essential oils selected for their anti-inflammatory and antispasmodic virtues, the serum is designed to relieve lower stomach pain. By its penetration through massage, it relaxes and soothes spasms.

And the nausea? They will be attenuated because they are originally caused by the contractions. Thank you essential oils…💚


👉 No more taboo on the rules, we talk about it, we face it! Womanpower!


And to go further...

Focus on diet and digestion in the service of menstruation

🍋 Compose balanced plates:Meals that are too rich in fast-absorbing carbohydrates (high glycemic index) and too low in protein, fat and fiber are likely to destabilize our blood sugar level and cause hypoglycemia ( the famous stroke after the meal). These hypoglycaemias are perceived as a physical stress for the body and end up, when they are too regular, by exhausting our resources:we become unable to adapt to the variations of our environment and then begin to experience the first signs of fatigue and anxiety. . It's all the worse when you're on your period.


🍋Pamper your digestion:A nutrient-dense diet is essential, but for it to be truly beneficial you must have a healthy digestive system that allows you to absorb the nutrients you ingest. So avoid all processed products, which are too irritating and inflammatory.


🍋 In addition, the composition of our gut microbiota seems to have a direct influence on our psychological health and our ability to manage the different types of stress to which we are subjected during seasonal changes, whether physical or emotional. It is therefore essential to ensure that we take care of our beneficial small intestinal bacteria by consuming:

  • Probiotics (or good bacteria) in the form of fermented foods:sauerkraut, kimchi, kombucha, lacto-fermented vegetables, etc.
  • Prebiotics (their favorite foods), abundant in fruits, vegetables, and legumes.
