Stress, wrong diet and an unhealthy lifestyle is the reason behind almost 33 percent of Indian women, suffering from scanty or irregular periods.
As the old folks in the house suggest, eating heat inducing food can increase blood flow. Lets check them:
1. Jaggery
To have a proper flow during periods, mix jaggery with some ginger, sesame seeds, a bit of Haldi, some jeera and gulp or chew it down with a cup of warm water. Start doing this two- three days prior to the cycle date to avoid scanty blood flow.
2. Chocolates
Chocolates are the best friend during these painful days. The high magnesium content in chocolates helps in proper functioning of the uterus. This vitamin rich food has plenty of minerals like copper, protein and is also rich in iron which helps in inducing menstruation.
3. Pineapple
Pineapple pieces or juice also has a good amount of manganese content, which helps in increasing blood flow during periods.
Bromelain, an enzyme found in pineapples can shed the lining of the uterus walls, which induces the menstrual cycle. This enzyme also relaxes the muscles, and having pineapples during periods can help in calming down menstrual cramps.
4. Turmeric- Haldi Dodh
The antispasmodic effect of Haldi can also give you relief from period cramps. These antispasmodic effects also expand and stimulate the uterus for a heavy menstrual flow. Warm turmeric milk / latte, is a soothing drink during periods.
5. Papaya
The rich carotene content in papayas can help induce the period or even prepone it. Having it a day before the estimated date can help in keeping irregular periods at bay. Unripe papaya gives better effects then ripe one. It should be taken in moderation, as it causes stomach upsets.
