4 INTRODUCTION Most of us know and dread PMS, both women and men alike. Women hate the physical discomfort, men hate the mood swings. While not all women experience premenstrual syndrome, almost 90% have come across one or more of the symptoms at some point in their lives, usually during their reproductive years. It's more common in women aged 20 to 40, but once they're of childbearing age, the symptoms may occur without warning. What's worse, some PMS symptoms actually interfere with the daily lives of about 30 to 40% of women, affecting them with backaches, cramps, and fainting spells. A normally positive and cheerful person can be overcome with sadness for no good reason, or even act out in anger when PMS hits hard. The pain and discomfort that PMS brings can also debilitate a woman, leaving her helpless to perform any routine activities. This report aims to shed some awareness on PMS and how you can prevent it from happening again. CardioClear7.com 4

5 WHAT CAUSES PMS? When you experience PMS pain, it can also mean that you're prone to other types of pain, thanks to your hormonal imbalances. For most women, estrogen levels are at their lowest right before menstruation. The decrease in estrogen levels also interrupt the metabolism of tryptophan, which should be synthesized into serotonin. Hence, serotonin levels can decrease significantly when estrogen levels are low. And when serotonin levels are low, one's pain threshold is greatly reduced and makes pain more amplified. This triggers other types of pain as well, such as migraines and fibromyalgia. Linaya Hahn, director of PMS Holistic Center of Illinois and one of the leading experts on PMS, believes that there are 16 causes of PMS, some of which are vastly neglected or even unheard of, such as sleep disorders, thyroid system malfunctions, a lack of full spectrum light, and more.

6 PMS is also sometimes mistaken as Candida infections, which commonly-prescribed birth control pills, antibiotics, fertility drugs, and steroids such as Prednisone and cortisone can also cause. It's a fine line, as excess estrogen is also a contributing factor in Candida development, which involves mood swings, bloating, constipation or diarrhea, fatigue, and many more sounds pretty much the same as PMS, doesn't it?

7 CONTROLLING PMS SYMPTOMS Most women find it difficult to control their PMS symptoms. Sometimes, a remedy that has worked the last time tends not to work for the next, and with every menstrual cycle, there are a multitude of factors that affect the symptoms differently. It's not enough to stick to one approach, like eating dark chocolate or exercising more, to properly rein in your PMS symptoms and treat the problem at its root. However, one tried-and-true way to significantly reduce the symptoms is to raise your serotonin levels and keep it level. Doing this can not only stop PMS symptoms such as anxiety, moodiness, cramps and the like in their tracks, but also prevent many other debilitating conditions like migraines and fibromyalgia (which are caused by a serotonin deficiency). Some easy ways to increase serotonin production is to eat 30 to 35 grams of starchy or sweet carbohydrates as snacks, twice a day during PMS. However, these snacks should not contain more than 2 grams of protein or fat. Protein inhibits serotonin production, and fats are just calories that you don't need. CardioClear7.com 7

8 A few examples of good snacks to eat while PMS-ing are: popcorn (just a handful!), low-fat granola bars, pretzels, frozen yogurt, and certain sweetened breakfast cereals. Another approach is to prevent the symptoms from occurring at all. You can actually adjust your hormonal imbalances before they start disrupting your serotonin levels. A safe way is to get more phytoestrogen, which is a nutrient that comes from soy. In fact, Asian women tend to experience less PMS symptoms than women living in Western cultures, likely due to their high soy consumption. CardioClear7.com 8

9 Other healthy food sources of phytoestrogen are seaweed, whole grains, and vegetables. Phytoestrogen can also help to lower the risk of cancers that involve the reproductive system. For example, a study by the University of Hawaii discovered that women who with a phytoestrogen-rich diet (as opposed to a standard Western diet) were 54% less prone to endometrial cancer. You can also buy phytoestrogen as supplements (also known as soy isoflavone) from health-food stores. Calcium, magnesium, B 6 (B complex of vitamins), Vitamin E, and a Chinese herb called dong quai. can also help in relieving and preventing menstrual cramps. Consult a health professional to find out the dosage you require to eliminate PMS symptoms it IS that easy. CardioClear7.com 9

10 CONCLUSION There are so many factors at play when it comes to premenstrual syndrome. No scientist has yet discovered the true cause for it, and we can only try to combat it with our stilllimited knowledge. However, we can make the most of this knowledge and keep the pain at bay. After all, it's not just to women's benefit if PMS symptoms were lessened or eliminated spouses, family members, friends and coworkers are all subject to the effects of PMS indirectly, if they inadvertently stood in the way of someone who was experiencing PMS. Let's make the world a better place by helping all women with this valuable information. CardioClear7.com 10
