PMS RELIEF
PMS: for one week every month, women act the same way that men do all the time. If you experience the annoying symptoms of premenstrual syndrome, then PMS is no joke. Read on to discover how supplements and herbs can make a difference...
Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) affects women during the last two weeks of the menstrual cycle and usually subsides when the menstrual flow begins. Many women think of these symptoms as normal but they are in fact caused by extreme or unbalanced hormonal changes. Fluctuations in serotonin (a brain chemical) is thought trigger PMS symptoms.
Diets rich in animal products, sluggish liver function, lack of sleep, stress, inactivity, hypoglycemia, hypothyroidism, heavy metal toxicity and food allergies aggravate, or contribute, to PMS symptoms. Some common symptoms of PMS include: tension, anxiety, depression, mood swings, irritability or anger, food cravings, trouble sleeping, poor concentration, joint/muscle pain, back pain, headache, fatigue, fluid retention, bloating, breast tenderness, and acne flares. Most women will not experience all these symptoms at the same time but rather one or two at a time if any. The severity of these symptoms vary as well.
Conventional treatment of PMS involves the use of oral contraceptives to artificially regulate hormonal changes. Natural treatment of PMS includes liver and bowel cleansing. The liver is the organ that is responsible for processing hormones. The bowels are responsible for excreting processed hormones. Performing liver and bowel cleansing will help to decrease PMS by ensuring proper functioning of these organs. See the section on detoxification for more information.
The nutritional approach to PMS should include these three facets: balancing hormones, providing nutrients specific for women’s health, and reducing symptoms.
Balancing hormones can often be a challenge. The symptoms that we experience as women during PMS are merely one example of how these very powerful substances in our bodies can have a profound effect on our health, well being and enjoyment of life.
Many PMS symptoms are caused by an imbalance between estrogen and progesterone. You can optimize your progesterone levels with supplements like
primrose oil
and
borage oil. They both contain the essential fat GLA which is needed to produce this important hormone. Take these along with vitamin B6; it is needed for your body to use GLA effectively.
Wild yam
sourced progesterone cream can also be applied topically.
Decreasing overactive estrogen levels is equally as important as optimizing progesterone production. The activity of estrogen can be blocked with the herb
dong quai, which blocks estrogen receptor sites with less active plant source estrogen.
You can also help the liver reduce excess estrogens with the supplement D-glucarate; it is used to make an enzyme that breaks estrogen down.
Milk thistle
can provide benefit for the liver in this respect, too.
Providing nutrients specific for women on a daily basis can make a big difference for hormonal health. An overall nutritional supplement like a complete multivitamin specifically for women or a green food supplement both provide important micro and macro nutrients for optimum nutrition. Essential fats, B vitamins,
amino acids, and
trace minerals
are important because they are all needed for balancing of hormones. The mineral iron is important because of the loss of haemoglobin during menstruation.
Balance, in all areas of your life and external environment, helps to promote balance inside the body. Regular exercise should be a part of a stress reduction program for PMS sufferers. Topically castor oil compresses over the abdomen can reduce cramping and water retention. It also helps the organs of detoxification to process hormones.
Dietary changes for PMS involve choosing foods that correct imbalances in hormones, neurotransmitters and prostaglandins. A vegetarian diet helps to excrete excess estrogens from the body. Animal
protein
contributes to PMS by inhibiting the formation of anti-inflammatory hormones. To increase the production of anti-inflammatory compounds take unrefined, cold pressed nut and seed oils like flax, hemp, sunflower and sesame oil.
Magnesium, vitamin B6 and
vitamin E
containing foods also reduce PMS symptoms. Eat wheat germ, nutritional yeast, cabbage, cantaloupe,
alfalfa, figs, nuts, lemons and grapefruit. Yogurt and other fermented dairy products reduce PMS by replacing friendly bacteria. These bacteria prevent estrogen conversion in the intestine. Drink 2L of filtered water daily. Do not consume salt, processed foods, junk foods, non-fermented dairy products, red meat, caffeine or alcohol. Exercising on a daily basis can help to alleviate some of the symptoms of PMS as well as improve your general well being. Try to reduce your stress levels as well. Get plenty of sleep and try yoga or massages to help relieve the tension.
