Ease PMS

When it comes to soothing premenstrual symptoms, the best medicine may be found in your kitchen—and it's not the chocolate and fatty foods you might crave. Studies have shown that healthy foods can actually eliminate the mood swings, bloating, blemishes, breast tenderness, and fatigue that often precede menstruation. Consuming soy, vegetables, fruits, nuts, and seeds may help balance hormones and prevent PMS symptoms.
Salad of Asparagus, Mâche, Endive and Orange Vinaigrette and Strawberry Salad with Gorgonzola Dressing incorporate the ingredients to help ease your symptoms as well as your cravings!
