History and Usage:

MenstraCalm™ combines natural phytonutrients, herbs, vitamins and minerals to provide support before and during a woman’s menstrual cycle.

Chinese herbs Dong Quai, Xiang Fu, Shu Di Huang and Lindera, and the European herb Chaste-tree fruit (Vitex) have a long history of traditional use for menstrual support. In fact, Dong Quai has been used by many oriental cultures for over a thousand years. Many find that it relieves leg cramps, irregular cycles, and infrequent periods. Chasteberry (Vitex) also has a long history ability to relieve PMS symptoms. Scientific studies have demonstrated that it may restore proper estrogen-progesterone ration levels.

Magnesium and calcium are added in order to promote the relaxation of the body during this time of stress. Additionally, folic acid has been added in order to replenish the supply of blood.
