During a regular menstrual period, the uterus contracts to help remove its lining. Certain factors like hormone imbalances (higher levels of prostaglandins for example) can trigger increased uterine muscle contractions with inflammation, cramping and pain as a result.
Cramp Relief is a comprehensive herbal and nutrient blend to relieve achy discomfort, pain and cramps that can come like clockwork with menstrual cycles.
It features proven herbal remedies like potent cramp bark, to help target muscle and uterine muscle cramps. With sweet fennel and skullcap, to relieve restlessness and nervousness during painful periods. And, vitamin B6 and a blend of muscle supporting magnesium for additional tension relieving benefits, and to act as a sleep aid during times of stress.
Ginger
Ginger is traditionally associated with anti-nausea properties, but it has also been studied extensively for dysmenorrhea as well as effectively reducing menstrual pain when taken for the first 3-4 days of the menstrual cycle. Additionally, research suggests that ginger may decrease exercise-induced muscle soreness, improve post-exercise recovery, reduce migraine severity and duration, and reduce joint pain.
Cassia cinnamon
Cassia cinnamon is another herb that has been studied for its ability to improve dysmenorrhea symptoms. Multiple studies have shown that cassia cinnamon is capable of reducing the severity of menstrual pain, associated nausea and vomiting, while also reducing the amount of menstrual bleeding. Both ginger, and cinnamon have been studied head-to-head against NSAID medications and have proven effective with an impressive safety profile.
Magnesium and Vitamin B6
When combined with magnesium vitamin B6 has been shown to reduce symptoms such as nervous tension, mood swings and irritability, pain perception. Can be used pre-menstrual cycle for cramps, daily as needed for digestive cramping, in the evening for muscle cramps.
Sweet Fennel
Sweet fennel has the advantage of offering a different layer of cramp relief beyond that which specifically occurs during the menstrual cycle. It has traditionally been used to relieve muscle spasms associated with colic, constipation, and IBS, and it works well for this because of its analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties. When studied against Mefenamic acid, sweet fennel outperformed Mefenamic acid with complete pain reduction at a rate of 80%, while Mefenamic acid tested at a rate of 73%.
Skullcap
Skullcap targets the nervousness and restlessness that can be a common side effect of menstruation. It is typically employed as an antispasmodic, as well as a sleep aid. Skullcap is used beyond targeting PMS pain to ease nervous tension, stomach cramps, headaches, and other symptoms that result in physical discomfort. Research shows that when taken acutely to target anxiety, the effects of a single dose are active right away and last 2-3 hours.
Cramp bark
As its name suggests, cramp bark responds to the painful cramping that can occur during a menstrual period. It can be used as a uterine relaxant during contractions, and as an antispasmodic in applications such as abdominal, muscular, urinary, lung and menstruation pain due to muscle spasms. This herb is most effective when it is taken in small, divided doses over a period of time.
