What role does nutrition play in menstrual cycle health?

Adequate protein, plant-based fats, and high-fiber carbs provide your body with the resources it needs to produce the right quantity of hormones. Drinking an adequate amount of water, iron-rich foods, Omega-3 fish oil, and certain herbs such as ginger and cinnamon helps relieve menstrual cramps, abdominal bloating, depression, and mood swings.
