Menstrual Cramps Improved by Diet and Vitamin D
A single dose of 300,000 IU of Vitamin D3
has been used 5-6 days before menstruation
with a reduction in pain. This dose should
only be taken under the supervision of your
doctor. (references below)
A low fat, whole food, 4 food group, vegan diet
was shown after two cycles to lower menstrual
pain. (reference below)
