Is gotu kola a good remedy for PMS?

Good morning! I kindly needed additional information about gotu kola that I bought in tablets (at the pharmacy) to be taken in the premenstrual period as I suffer from the syndrome and I swell, stagnate water, weight gain and cellulite increases . They recommended it to me. Do you think this is a good solution? So what about photosensitivity so I can’t use it now that I’m going to the beach? Thanks a lot for a vs, answer. Francesca

Hi, about the gotu kola is excellent for PMS , a diet containing magnesium then green leafy vegetables, dried fruit, or the supreme magnesium which is a broad aid on swelling, stagnation of liquids, circulatory optimization could also help. one of the contraindications of gotu kola is photosensitization so no sun and no lamps, in that case it could only use powdered magnesium . I also recommend physical activity which certainly helps to reduce swelling and venous stasis.

Dearest, there are other herbal remedies that can be used even on vacation without incurring the problems you have exposed. Keep in mind that drainers have a tendency to lower blood pressure levels and may therefore feel fatigued. Magnesium does not have a specific action on retention that should be considered by a large bank. However, if it is associated with potassium, it can certainly help it in conjunction with other active ingredients that are much more valid in this regard. To go deeper, however, it would be more professional to investigate the causes of its retention and therefore verify that everything is in balance at the hormonal level. Even more, nutrition can contribute to weight gain in this case in those critical days. Milk and derivatives have a estrogenic action. This means that they have a “swelling” effect. They must therefore be eliminated from the diet. Finally, the importance of sport and movement is underestimated. A constant and regular activity and in the case of PMS that also has a sweat action is necessary and beneficial. On vacation, if you are by the sea, bathing in water and salt in the sea combined with movement can work wonders. Kind regards Cinzia Zedda
