I. Definition
Prostaglandins are found in most tissues and organs. They are produced by all nucleated cells except lymphocytes. prostaglandins are generated from
a) Gamma linoneic acid ( GLA)
b) Arachidinic acid (AA)
c) Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA)
II. How prostaglandins effect women with PMS
1. Gamma linoneic acid ( GLA)
GLA is also known as essential Omega 6 fatty acid which has anti-inflammatory properties found primarily in vegetable oils. It may also be converted from linolenic acid before converting to prostaglandins PGE1. If there are blockage caused abnormal function of fat and protein metabolism, imbalance of essential Omega 3 and 6 fatty acids and nutrients deficiency, PGE1 may become bad prostaglandins resulting in symptoms of PMS including menstrual pain and cramps.
2. Arachidinic acid (AA)
Arachidinic acid (AA) is also converted from linoleic acids after converting to dihomogamma-linolenic acid (DGLA). It is produced as resulting of unbalance of Omega 3 and 6 fatty acids. Over production of PGE2 causes symptoms of PMS including menstrual pain and cramps. Since meats contain high levels of AA, reducing intake of such products will help to restore the balance of prostaglandins hormone PG1 and PG2.
3. Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA)
Omega 3 fatty acid containing eicosapentaenoic acid which is also known as also icosapentaenoic acid which is converted from Alpha-linolenic acid. EPA is vital for the production of good prostaglandins PGE3 resulting in lessening the risk of inflammation and symptoms of PMS.
Unbalance of Omega 3 and 6 fatty acids causes unbalance of hormone of members in the prostaglandins and weakens the liver in fatty acids metabolism resulting in increasing the risk of symptoms of premenstrual syndrome.
