“Good Riddance
To PMS Forever!”

It’s Time You Knew The Little ‘Secret’
European Women Have Known
For 50 Years

Dear PMS Sufferer,

Ask almost any doctor in America today: “what’s the best remedy for those horrible PMS symptoms” and the answer is likely to be, “I don’t know.”

Here’s why …

PMS was first described in medical literature back in 1931. Today, doctors and researchers still aren't quite sure exactly what PMS is. Symptoms vary widely among women and no less than 100 different symptoms have been recorded over the years.

Unable to put their finger on the problem, researchers haven’t been able to come up with a solution. So they punt. And the primary focus of modern American medicine has always been the development of new prescription and nonprescription drugs.

An OB-GYN may prescribe anti-inflammatories, serotonin-reuptake inhibitors, anti-anxiety drugs, antidepressants, and diuretics to tackle your PMS. Results will vary. Negative side effects are almost assured.

Using various drugs in search of PMS relief is something akin to the circus art of plate spinning. The circus performer balances a number of spinning dinner plates atop wood polls, frantically rushing back and forth among the spinning plates to keep them from wobbling and eventually crashing to the ground.

Instead of circus performers, now it’s researchers rushing back and forth trying to figure out which drug concoction works best on PMS.

And The Europeans Say …
“You Americans Amuse Us”

See, the Europeans take a more natural, more holistic approach to defeating PMS. They’ve been at this for 50 years. The results look very promising.

It’s a gentler approach too. Europeans avoid synthetic and chemical solutions as much as possible. Their doctors favor vitamins, minerals and botanicals – the perfect supplement trio for our nutritionally-starved modern diets. And nutrition and lifestyle seem to be at the root of the PMS problem.

In contrast to the hectic pace of plate spinning, an holistic approach is more akin to draping a fluffy blanket over the problem. The right combination of vitamins, minerals and botanicals can work synergistically to gently sooth away PMS symptoms.

Period Vitamin Brings Your Body
Back Into A Natural Balance

While the so-called experts debate just what PMS is and how to treat it, practitioners of holistic healing understand that your body is a complex marvel of nature. When one part shows signs of wear, it can throw everything out of whack. Your problems usually begin with a hormonal imbalance.

Masking symptoms like cramping, painful breasts or irritability doesn’t solve the problem. Period Vitamin takes a radically different approach. It was designed to replace the nutrients you lose every month, strengthen your immune system and adjust your hormone levels. Natural harmony returns to your body.

It may take your body 30 days or so to adjust to this more natural approach. But European women and their doctors both agree, the ingredients in Period Vitamin are more gentle on a woman’s body than drugs and the results last far longer.

Here’s What’s Inside Period Vitamin …

Chosen because it’s been long prized by Native American women as an effective PMS remedy (they actually ate the seeds of the Evening Primrose plant). Contains gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) – the active form of the omega-6 fatty acid. Gently reduces irritability, depression, cramping and breast tenderness.

In a noteworthy clinical study performed at St. Thomas Hospital in London, 70 women were administered Evening Primrose three times daily. Forty-seven women experienced total relief. Another fifteen experienced partial relief. And not one of these women had previously responded to “conventional” treatments. That’s pretty awesome!

Chosen because of the hormone balancing properties of this ancient remedy. Homer spoke of this fragrant flower in The Illiad and the father of medicine, Hippocrates, eagerly prescribed it.

The key to Chasteberry’s effectiveness is its ability to work through the pituitary gland to regulate estrogen and progesterone production. It’s known to reduce breast pain, acne associated with PMS, fluid retention, headaches, mood swings and general irritability. Evidence suggests it may also help to stimulate libido.

Chasteberry has been the subject of no less than 30 clinical trials over the last 50 years. Archives of Gynecology and Obstetrics, The Journal of Women’s Health and Gender Based Medicine and the British Medical Journal have all reported on the positive results realized by daily Chasteberry use.

Chosen because herbalists have proven for centuries its effectiveness in warding off urinary tract infections. Cranberry effectively prevents bacteria from adhering to the wall of the bladder.

Urinary tract infections are not a PMS issue. Still, the prevalance of urinary tract infections in women and Period Vitamin’s passion for holistic health prompted Cranberry’s inclusion.

Chosen because it’s nature’s all-natural pain reliever. Its active ingredient is salicin, which the body converts into salicylic acid. You may be familiar with acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) which is chemically synthesized by drug companies.

White Willow Bark is used by Native Americans and in traditional Chinese medicine to treat acute and chronic pain, including headaches, back and neck pain, muscle aches, menstrual cramps and arthritis. It works by lowering the body’s levels of prostaglandins – hormone-like compounds that regulate many activities in the body.

Chosen because it’s a multitasking herb that’s “smart” enough to know what your body needs and acts accordingly.

When your hormones are all out of whack, Red Raspberry filters excess hormones out of the blood stream. When your uterus is all cramped up, Red Raspberry’s ferulic acid shrinks swollen tissue and relieves muscle spasms.

When your period is extra heavy, Red Raspberry turns off the floodgates. Sidelined by those horrible hot flashes? Red Raspberry can “cool you off” quickly.

Here’s more … Red Raspberry is loaded with important vitamins and minerals like B3 (Niacin), C and Manganese which boost cell respiration and metabolism giving you better circulation, healthier looking skin and higher memory function.

Here’s another traditional Native American medicinal plant that’s largely ignored by the modern American medical community. It’s been universally accepted in Europe and in Germany it’s officially classified as a medicine.

Chosen because of its historic and proven anti-spasmodic properties which reduce the cramps and pain of the menstrual cycle.

Recent studies reveal Black Cohosh reduces hot flashes, swelling, headaches, insomnia, anxiety, depression and irritability.

And it’s well known for its ability to regulate estrogen levels, reduce blood pressure and increase circulation.

If you’re suffering from the negative side effects of conventional hormone replacement therapy, take note. Black Cohosh contains a phytoestrogen that mimics your body’s natural estrogen. Use it to reduce those negative side effects.

Just like your car or your computer, your reproductive system needs regular tune ups and adjustments to keep it running strong and trouble free. Fortunately, Wild Yam does this without the need to make an appointment or leave your body at the shop for the day.

Chosen because it’s one of nature’s best sources of phytohormones. These are the basic building blocks your body needs to produce the hormones that regulate your body. Skimp on the phytohormones and you can expect to run out of energy, have irregular periods, stress out at the drop of a hat, lose your sex drive, and hit menopause way before your time.

It gets worse. The typical Western diet is almost totally devoid of phytohormones. Unless you regularly consume raw organic fruits and vegetables, grass fed livestock and dairy products from grass fed animals, your body is slowly coming apart at the seams. Problem is, you won’t know about this until you’re faced with costly “repairs” down the road.

We included Wild Yam for your peace of mind.

Traditionally and historically, Damiana has been prized as a sexual stimulant by native Mexicans. But that’s not why we chose it for Period Vitamin. It’s also widely used to strengthen the nervous system and balance hormone levels.

It’s reputed to increase energy levels, and counter depression, anxiety, low estrogen levels and hot flashes.

Chosen because it can reduce bloating, cramping and other pains associated with PMS.

A 10-year study at the University of Massachusetts – Amherst revealed women who included a sufficient amount of calcium in their diets reduced PMS symptoms by 30%.

And according to Boston’s Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center a large double-blind, placebo-controlled study found calcium significantly reduced mood swings, pain, bloating, depression, back pain, and food cravings.

Chosen because your body needs it to efficiently absorb calcium. It also increases the effectiveness of Evening Primrose.

Low levels of magnesium have been linked directly to PMS. Studies suggest that menstrual cramping caused by increased levels of prostaglandins may be eased by taking supplements of this mineral. Magnesium can help muscles relax, minimizing cramps.

Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center reports Magnesium effective in controlling mood swings and reducing fluid retention related to PMS.

In another study reported by Beth Israel, women experienced significant reduction in weight gain, breast tenderness, swelling and bloating. A smaller study reveals magnesium may help prevent migraines associated with PMS.

Chosen because iron levels are depleted during menstruation. Worse yet, it’s believed that low iron levels increase heavy menstrual bleeding. In one study, three out of four women decreased menstrual blood flow by taking an iron supplement.

Chosen because it does quadruple duty, 1) by increasing the effectiveness of Evening Primrose, 2) helping your body absorb Calcium, 3) helping your body absorb Iron, and 4) controlling heavy bleeding.

Chosen because it’s a powerful antioxidant. It can protect your body from many chronic disorders and pain. It can also give relief from moodiness, breast tenderness, headaches, insomnia, cramping and depression associated with PMS.
