Affecting four out of ten women, PMS symptoms can impact the quality of your life and the ability to do normal activities. While it is normal to have minor discomfort before your period, severe PMS symptoms, such as anxiety, moodiness, irritability, pain, bloating, acne, and headaches may be alerting you to some internal imbalances. While it is not known what causes PMS, it is likely that changing hormone levels and brain chemistry play a role. Diet, activity level, and stress may also be related to the severity of symptoms. Giving your body the right nutrients can help to manage your PMS.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch3\u003eNutritional Supplements\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eStart with CORE NUTRITION... \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eAdd these essential products:\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch4 class=\"middle-container\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"toplink\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"#prim\"\u003e1.

Unfortunately, diuretics, alcohol consumption, high stress levels, and unbalanced diets can result in a magnesium deficiency. To help you maintain sufficient magnesium levels and optimum energy, we formulated Pathway TRI-MAG with 100 mg of elemental magnesium from three different sources to provide maximum uptake. Magnesium helps to relax the muscular contractions of the uterus caused by hormonal imbalances.

As a coenzyme, B6 participates in a wide variety of enzymatic reactions. It is therefore needed for the proper growth and maintenance of almost all our body structures and body functions. It is particularly important for nervous system functioning, cardiovascular health, and women’s health. Vitamin B6 is a natural diuretic and helps with PMS-related bloating. B6 also aids in balancing estrogen levels. Vitamin B6 is best taken in combination with a balanced B-complex, such as Pathway B-COMPLEX 50.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eRecommended: \u003ca href=\"\/brands\/pathway\/pathway-vitamin-b-6.html\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003ePathway VITAMIN B6\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan class=\"toplink\"\u003e\u003ca name=\"#greens\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003eGreen Foods\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eCravings for chocolate and other sweet foods are a common and frustrating symptom of PMS.
