[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Diet is an interesting thought. Not sure what's so special about spinach but is your theory that the iron loss of a period might contribute? So in that case, upping iron sources in the week before could be beneficial (and/or just continue taking prenatal vitamins?)[/quote] It’s not my theory—google spinach and PMS and there have been studies. I looked it up a few years ago because after I started putting spinach in my eggs and smoothies for a while (I was buying it at Costco, lol) my periods were noticeably better. Other dark leafy greens will have the same effect. It’s not just iron, it’s magnesium and other nutrients as well. [/quote]
