Treating PMS
Experts advise a combination of dietary changes and certain supplements in combination as the first port of call for dealing with PMS. These include:

A strict low GL diet to keep blood sugar levels even as many of the symptoms of PMS are blood sugar related Increasing phyto-estrogen intake from beans, nuts and seeds as these assist to keep hormones in balance Increasing cruciferous vegetables which help to eliminate excess oestrogen – these include cabbage, brussel sprouts, broccoli, cauliflower, kale, turnip, swede, radish, horseradish, mustard and watercress Increasing essential fats (both omega 3 and 6) from oily fish as these are vital for keeping hormones in balance.
