Details
The physical symptoms of PMS can include abdominal pain, headaches, breast tenderness and bloating. AOR’s PMS LessTM contains three natural ingredients designed to target these symptoms. Pine bark extract has been shown to be effective at soothing the pain of menstrual cramps and tenderness. The formula also includes Boerhaavia diffusa and Boswellia serrata, which are well known for their anti-inflammatory and pain relieving properties.
Less Emotional Disruption
Many women suffer from changes to their emotional state during PMS, with symptoms including irritability, angry outbursts, anxiety, withdrawal and depression. Pyridoxal-5-phosphate (P5P - a form of vitamin B6), 5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) and theanine have all been shown to be effective at supporting a relaxed state of mind and reducing the detrimental emotional effects of PMS.
Less PMS
Over 95% of women of reproductive age experience some symptoms of PMS and 5% experience symptoms severe enough to disrupt their daily life. PMS LessTM provides women with a natural alternative to help lessen the diverse symptoms of PMS and prevent disruption to their regular routine.
Premenstrual Syndrome
Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) is a collection of symptoms affecting women in their reproductive years that generally appear within the two weeks prior to menses. The symptoms of PMS are widely varied and may be emotional, psychological or physical in nature. Some of the more common symptoms include abdominal pain, headaches, breast tenderness, bloating, irritability, depression, tension, anxiety, a lack of energy, angry outbursts and withdrawal. 95% of women in their reproductive years experience at least some of these symptoms each month. In 5% of women these symptoms are so severe that they negatively impact their health, ability to function at work, and the quality of their relationships with others.
The ingredients in AOR’s PMS LessTM target the various symptoms of PMS, providing relief from both the physical pain and emotional upheaval brought on by PMS.
Natural Pain Relievers
• Pine Bark Extract – Pine bark extract has been shown in several clinical trials to significantly reduce the pain and discomfort associated with PMS. In one study it completely relieved abdominal cramps and breast tenderness. In addition to having anti-inflammatory properties, pine bark extract contains ferulic acid and caffeic acid, both of which inhibit contraction of the uterus, helping to alleviate cramps.
• Boerhaavia diffusa – This herb has been studied for its anti-inflammatory, pain relieving and anti-spasmodic properties. It is also a diuretic, and can help prevent fluid retention and bloating.
• Boswellia serrata – Boswellia serrata is a traditional ayurvedic herb with powerful anti¬inflammatory properties. It helps to relieve the painful physical symptoms of PMS.
Mood Modulators
• Pyridoxal-5-phosphate (P5P) – P5P is the biologically active form of vitamin B6, and acts as a catalyst for over 113 essential enzymatic reactions in the body. Supplementation with P5P has been shown to reduce the emotional symptoms of PMS, including depression, tension and anxiety. One study found that vitamin B6 supplementation reduced emotional PMS symptoms by as much as 50%.
• L-Theanine – Theanine is an amino acid from tea that has been shown to promote relaxation and relieve stress and anxiety. It acts on the brain, heightening brain wave patterns associated with a state of relaxed wakefulness. Studies have shown that theanine can significantly reduce the emotional symptoms of PMS.
• 5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) – 5-HTP is a metabolite of the amino acid tryptophan, and is an essential precursor of the neurotransmitter serotonin. Research supports a role for 5-HTP in supporting mood balance. By increasing serotonin levels in the brain, 5-HTP can effectively reduce the emotional symptoms of PMS, improving mood and alleviating depression, tension and anxiety.
