Apart from decreasing hair loss, black raisins can also help in purifying your blood and keeping high blood pressure in control. Eating soaked blacked raisins before the monthly menstrual cycle can prevent constipation, bloating and mood swings.
The benefits of having almonds
Almonds are PMS friendly snacks. Having almonds during that time of the month can help you manage the cramps and stomach related issues. The nut is high in vitamins B, particularly B6 and riboflavin, which as per studies are known to reduce the symptoms of PMS. Soaked almonds are considered better than unsoaked almonds. This is because almonds peel contains tannins that can inhibit the absorption of nutrients.
