- Oona PMS 2 - 50 Gelcaps Since women can experience either psychological or physiological symptoms, or both types, Oöna Health has developed two different formulations that may be taken separately or together. Oöna PMS2 is an herbal supplement formulated more for the physiological symptoms that come on right before menstruation. Oöna PMS2 is taken two to three days before you expect menstrual cramps and ends when the symptoms subside. You do not take PMS2 throughout the month. If you experience some of the following symptoms, Oöna PMS 2 is the right product for you: Menstrual cramps PMS related body aches Heavy bleeding Nausea PMS related back pain PMS related indigestion and gas Oöna PMS2 consists of a proprietary cramp bark extract and a non proprietary ginger extract. Although cramp bark (Viburnum Opulus) has long been a staple for clinical use, the Oöna PMS2 cramp bark extract is unique because it is one of the first to be standardized. There is a patent pending on this extract. In the past, much of the cramp bark sold was in tincture form that uses ethanol or alcohol as its base. These extracts come in strengths like 3:1 or 4:1. They do not address the strength of any active ingredients. The issue has been that women don't really know the strength of each bottle and because of the extraction process they needed to take a lot of the tincture throughout the day. It is very inconvenient. The cramp bark in Oöna uses a very clean extraction process call Supercritical Fluid Extraction whereby Oona uses a combination of pressure and CO2 gas. Oona has also identified the compound that is a key contributor to the herbs therapeutic properties. By identifying this compound, Oona is able to make an extract consistent in strength and efficacy without altering the herb at all. Oona has also added a ginger extract, known to lower prostaglandins and aid in digestion issues that often accompany the onset of menstruation. It is important to note that Oöna PMS2 is not ibuprofen and does not work like it. The cramp bark in Oöna PMS2 will work with your body to help relax smooth muscle - your uterus is made up of smooth muscle. You may still feel a little tug but your cramps should decrease substantially. On very severe days, you may take ibuprofen with Oöna PMS2 - albeit a lot less. PMS 2- Their patent-pending, standardization of Cramp Bark with Ginger The product in the orange tin is for cramps and heavy bleeding. Take 5 or 6 all at once the minute cramps hit…more severe cramps can be helped when you take the PMS 2 a couple days before your period arrives. Think: 2 in the morning, 2 at night, 2 days before…PMS 2! Both PMS products can be taken together…and severe cramps can be helped even more when hormones are in balance. Many cramp sufferers take both products. P.S. also good for any “intestinal” cramping--for women and men! OönaPMS2 is formulated to address the frequent onset of PMS menstrual cramps and associated headaches and/or gastrointestinal complaints.OönaPMS2 is a combination of an Oöna Health, Inc. proprietary cramp bark extract and standardized ginger extract. The active constituents of cramp bark have been identified as coumarins (such as scopoletin and scopolin), tannins (primarily catechins) and vinburnine, a known smooth muscle relaxant.(the uterus is made up of smooth muscle) Indigenous to North America, cramp bark is a large shrub that belongs to the same family as the Elder. Today, cramp bark is mostly collected in northern Europe. Cramp bark has a long history of use in easing menstrual cramps by working as a uterine relaxant and general antispasmodic. It dates back to Native American tribal use and was also listed in The National Formulary for many years for this use. OönaPMS2 is standardized to the marker compound vinburnine. Possibly one of the first plants to be cultivated by humankind, ginger is valued by nearly every culture around the globe. While ginger has long been known for its ability to calm an upset stomach
