You are not destined to feel uncomfortable and miserable! We’ve all been there. It’s that time of the month and our bodies (and brains) seem to go haywire. We suffer many symptoms like breast tenderness, bloat, terrible cramps, and emotional warfare. The truth is you are not destined to live that way!
Let's dive into 7 ways you can combat PMS and menopause symptoms naturally!
During your monthly cycle, your hormones naturally fluctuate. A shift in these hormones can lead to both physical and emotional symptoms including: regulation of mood, sleep cycle, and appetite. Low levels of dopamine are linked to feelings of sadness and go hand in hand with higher serotonin levels which are linked to depression, both commonly related to PMS.
When estrogen is out of balance, it can also trigger fluid retention resulting in bloating, breast tenderness, and migraines. Out-of-balance estrogen levels can cause heavy periods, fibroids, and endometriosis.
Eat a hormone and blood sugar-balancing diet. This diet should be rich in quality protein, fiber, nutrients, and healthy fats.
Avoid processed foods, damaged fats, excess caffeine and alcohol, and foods high in sugars and simple carbohydrates. Try cutting out dairy and consider eliminating other common allergens for a few months, especially gluten.
