Menstrual Problems
Unpleasant symptoms such as:
- Backache
- Cramps
- Depression
- Fainting spells
- Tender breasts
- Tension
- Water retention
The above are all common knowledge to the female sex. It is something that is an unknown commodity to most males. As common as these symptoms are, they are not necessarily normal. People eating healthy diets and living close to nature as in some of the poorer countries such as China, Russia and Central America (American Indians) don’t suffer the monthly discomfort that Western people do. This being the case, improper diet as well as an imbalance of hormones have a lot to do with the ordeal that menstruation puts western females through. A deficiency of vitamins also has a bearing on menstrual problems, vitamins E and B6 especially.
FACTS ABOUT MENSTRUAL PROBLEMS
In order to alleviate oedema and the swelling and soreness that comes with it start taking vitamin B6 (100 mg a day) about 8-10 days before the expected start of menstruation.

Follow the health diet with emphasis on protein containing foods such as yoghurt, kefir and home-made cottage cheese. Other beneficial foods are:
- Buckwheat
- Oats
- Nuts

- Apricots
- Eggs
- Fruits
- Milk
- Raw vegetables
- Red beets
