PMS
Relief Is Like The Heaven For The Women
By:
Markus Skupeika
Every ones expectation is to lead the
life with best of the enjoyment and without any sort of mental anguish. More
often it is not possible for every individual, particularly for the women
when they have Premenstrual Syndrome. Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) involves
the symptoms that is related with the women menstrual cycle and that
interfere with the women's healthy living. PMS is a disorder characterized
by a set of hormonal changes that trigger disruptive symptoms in a
significant number of women for up to two weeks prior to menstruation.
It is estimated that more than 40 million women suffer from this hormonal
disease. The causes of PMS are still not clear. It is linked to the changing
hormone during the menstrual cycle. Some of the women are affected by other
symptoms of changing hormone level while they are onset for the menstrual
period. The stress and the emotional problems do not seem to be the problems
but they make the situation worse. The women go nuts how to relieve
Menstrual Cramps while these become intolerable for them.
Premenstrual Syndrome is associated with the wide range of physical and
mental or emotional symptoms. These symptoms become disappear with seven
days extension the menstrual cycle ends. The most common symptoms includes
the headaches, swelling of ankles, backaches, abdominal cramps along with
the pain, muscle spasms, breast tenderness, bloating, less tolerance of
light and the noise and there are some other symptoms that include anxiety
of panic, difficulty in concentration, confusion, irritability, hostility,
or aggressive behavior and most of all depression.
To combat all these symptoms the certain remediation process is widely
suggested. PMS vitamin supplements are proving great for the procurement. As
the Vitamin supplements Vitamin B6 is, Calcium and magnesium are commonly
used. The nutrient studies show that the 100-400 mg of Vitamin B6 intake for
there months is suggested to reduce the symptoms of the PMS. The Calcium
should be taken at about 1200 mg per day and this will reduce the chance of
about 48% for the PMS Symptoms. Evening Primrose Oil (EPO) contains
significant amount of Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA) that is well prescribed
supplements of reducing the symptoms of Premenstrual Syndrome. Intake of
Potassium, Soy Protein, cow milk (as it contains estrogen) and Vitamin 300
IU per day have been coping with the PMS attack in women health. Vitamin A
of about 25000 IU is making the thing bit easier for the sufferers of the
PMS.
Many years ago, research linked B vitamin deficiencies to PMS in preliminary
research. Based on that early work, some doctors recommend B-complex
vitamins for PMS Relief for women with PMS.

Why do I have cravings
during PMS?
By:
Diana Walker
Scientists and medical professionals
don't completely understand the causes for PMS and the cravings that go
along with it yet. The general consent is that hormones like progesterone,
estrogen and testosterone are involved, as is the brain chemical serotonin.
The fact is that many women crave certain food, mostly chocolate, sweets and
salty / fatty foods like potato chips during "that time of the month".
Are PMS Cravings Really Dangerous Or Addictive?
While PMS cravings aren't particularly dangerous, some of the foods we eat
and the amounts in which we eat them aren't exactly healthy. Eating several
candy bars for example isn't a good idea. On the other hand, eating a bite
of chocolate, or a handful of chips won't kill you.
The key is not to let these cravings get out of control, or they can lead to
weight gain, obesity and all the health problems associated with it such as
diabetes, heart disease and certain types of cancer.
What Can I Do To Curb My PMS Cravings?
The best way to curb PMS food cravings is to give your body the serotonin it
craves without going overboard on the sugary stuff. Skip the bag of oreos
and the pint of ice cream. You can get the same craving curbing effect by
eating complex carbs with a little fat and protein in the mix to slow down
the absorption of the carbs. Good choices are whole grains, beans, lean
protein like chicken and rice cakes.
Perhaps the best way to cut down on PMS cravings is to change when and how
much food you eat. Keeping your blood sugar level even is your best bet. Try
eating six small meals spread throughout the day. Each of the meals should
include some complex carbs, some protein and a little fat to keep your body
satisfied and avoid blood sugar spikes that will only lead to more cravings.
You may not be able to get rid of your PMS food cravings completely but by
following the advice above, you can manage them and gain at least some
control over your cravings. |
