Premenstrual Calcium Mood Foods
Premenstrual calcium mood foods—yogurt fortified milks leafy greens—may ease mood and fluid symptoms when baseline calcium intake was low, alongside sleep and movement.
Premenstrual calcium mood foods include yogurt, kefir, fortified plant milks, canned salmon with bones, and leafy greens—calcium intake linked in some trials to milder premenstrual mood and fluid symptoms when diets were low. Food sources beat guessing with random tablets.
Spread across meals; do not rely on calcium at the same time as iron-rich menstrual meals if absorption competes. Works best with sleep and movement habits.
