Maintaining a healthy diet can support overall health, including menstrual health.
Some foods that may help support period health include:
**Iron-rich Foods**:
Women lose iron during menstruation, so including iron-rich foods like spinach, red meat, lentils, and fortified cereals can help prevent iron deficiency anemia.
**Omega-3 Fatty Acids**:
Found in fatty fish like salmon, as well as flaxseeds, chia seeds, and walnuts, omega-3s may help reduce inflammation and alleviate menstrual pain.
**Calcium-rich Foods**:
Dairy products, leafy greens like kale and broccoli, and fortified plant milks are good sources of calcium, which is important for bone health and may help reduce menstrual cramps.
**Magnesium-rich Foods**:
Magnesium can help reduce muscle cramping. Foods like nuts, seeds, whole grains, and leafy green vegetables are good sources.
**Vitamin D**:
Some studies suggest that vitamin D may help reduce menstrual symptoms. Fatty fish, egg yolks, and fortified foods are good sources.
**Fiber**:
Foods high in fiber, such as whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and legumes, can help regulate hormones and promote healthy digestion, which may reduce bloating and constipation often associated with menstruation.
**Hydration**:
Staying hydrated is important for overall health and may help reduce bloating and water retention during menstruation.
