Premenstrual Syndrome and Menstrual Cramps in Women
One of the many negative effects of excess copper are heightened PMS type symptoms. C PMS can result in severe moodiness and irritability at a women’s menstrual period. As estrogen increases during the female monthly hormonal cycle, this automatically increases copper retention. Copper also increases sodium retention which aggravates PMS symptom, causing bloating, weight gain. The rise in copper and increase sodium antagonize zinc and B6 which are two important nutrients that can help reduce symptom of PMS.

Doing a hair test will inform you of your exact mineral status and help you determine the actual level of unbound copper as well as other nutrient imbalances. Once these imbalances are corrected with nutritional rebalancing, the symptoms of PMS and menstrual cramps can be reduced during a woman’s monthly cycle.
