There are many natural premenstrual remedies that do not require expensive, and sometimes harmful or not useful, medications. While no remedy is ever guaranteed, there are abundance of alternative premenstrual treatments to fight the condition's associated pain and mood swings.
Eating leser amount of salt, always a good idea, is especially crucial in the week to 10 days before the scheduled start of your menstrual cycle. Check processed foods for sodium count; as a lot of salt can still be eaten without ever touching an actual jar of salt. Less salt helps relieve bloating, weight gain, and cramps and is a generally good all-around idea, not to mention one of the best Premenstrual remedies.
Taking a hot bath is one of the simplest Premenstrual remedies and always helps before and during a menstrual cycle. Ensure the bathing with too hot water is not suitable for your skin, and never take one when extremely ill or sleepy for safety reasons.
Vitamins A and D suppress the PMS symptoms of acne and oily skin. The food sources of vitamin A are cantaloupe, raw carrots, cooked sweet potatoes and spinach. In addition to getting Vitamin D from sunshine, it can be obtained from enriched milk and cereal.
Vitamin B6 helps relieve premenstrual cravings, fatigue, mood swings, fluid retention and bloating. Vitamin B6 can be taken in supplements and by eating fish, eggs, nuts, bananas, potatoes, and the white meat of turkey and chicken.
There are tons of "moon cycle" teas available for purchase online or in specialty stores for PMS remedies. One I like to drink comes from Yogi Tea. They all compose natural herbs and plants designed to help relieve cramps, weight gain, and mood swings.
