Abstract in brief

  • This study examined how adherence to the Mediterranean diet and local foods from the Huelva region relate to menstrual pain and other menstrual characteristics among Spanish university women, finding that diet type affects cycle length and menstrual flow.
  • Women with low adherence to the Mediterranean diet tended to have longer menstrual cycles, and behaviors like eating fewer fruits and more pulses increased the likelihood of menstrual pain.
  • The research suggests that diet, including olive oil consumption and alcohol intake, may influence menstrual symptoms, but further studies are needed to confirm these connections.]

Is there a connection between diets that provide nutrients that are anti-inflammatory and period pain? Maybe include more nourishing, nutrient dense during that time of the month as well as balancing emotional needs? https://t.co/AlISHQrNv5
