Painful periods can be caused by a lack of calcium according to Adele Davis in her book Let’s get Well. And can be relieved significantly when calcium is replenished. I can’t recommend this book highly enough. It’s about using food and vitamins to improve health.

My daughter was an Adele Davis baby 52 years ago. She thrived. When so many babies and toddlers had ear infections around us, she never got even 1 infection. She went barefoot and was outside all the time. I made baby food and had a little hand grinder at the table that I would use with our own garden produce. I can still see the face she made when taking the cod liver oil. Of course now, she’s a captive of the modern PHARMA machine. And her son also. Sad.

That is a sad story. I wish I’d had the book when my kids were babies and hadn’t given so much paracetamol/calpol.
