Yes, and surprisingly enough, the more food and the more healthy food you eat on the days leading up to your period, the less heavy it will be. Women with anemia and deficiencies are known to have heavy periods. A good idea if you want a lighter period to take in a lot of calcium, magnesium, and iron in the week before your period.
