4. daily intake of white bread. (for PMS avoid "white foods" like white bread and mashed potatoes which can change the way estrogen is metabolized and trigger the body to convert testosterone to estrogen).

4 -- Dietary intake of simple carbohydrates should be reduced. White bread should be traded for whole-wheat bread if possible. Dietary adjustments of reduced caffeine and increased calcium and magnesium are beneficial in the management of premenstrual syndrome.
