N2  - Historically, minerals and plants have been used to treat dysmenorrhea symptoms, alleviate pain, replenish nutrients, and enhance overall well-being. In this study, we tested a novel plant-based dietary supplement consisting of cranberry extract, burdock root, both underground and above-ground parts of marsh cinquefoil, and natural mineral salt from Siberian lakes. The participants, all pubescent girls, did not have any diagnosed health issues or previous allergic reactions. Cardiovascular assessments were performed before and after the treatment to assess any changes. The autonomic nervous system was examined through tests targeting the sympathetic nervous system (e.g., handgrip tests) and the parasympathetic nervous system (including deep breathing and the Valsalva maneuver). The supplement was administered three times daily, in addition to cyclic vitamin therapy and electrotherapy. Our findings suggest that the dietary supplement positively influenced the treatment outcomes.
