Douglas Laboratories introduces PMS Support with BioResponse DIM

May 20, 2013 — Douglas Laboratories, a trusted choice of healthcare professionals for superior quality, science-based nutritional supplements for more than 50 years, has introduced PMS Support with BioResponse DIM.

Co-developed by Shelena C. Lalji, MD, a well-known keynote speaker, a medical expert, and a knowledgeable trainer for fellow integrative practitioners, the PMS Support formula promotes healthy hormone levels and reproductive function in women while supporting normal premenstrual symptoms (“PMS”) symptoms.†

“Douglas Labs is pleased to partner with women’s health expert Dr. Lalji to offer this advanced female-focused product,” said Andrew Halpner, PhD, vice president, product development and technical services at Douglas Laboratories. “The addition of BioResponse DIM makes this formula unique from other PMS formulas, and helps to meet the need of women who suffer from PMS.”

“We developed this formula specifically for women because even mild, common symptoms of PMS can benefit from ingredients such as DIM.,” said Lalji, Board certified obstetrician and gynecologist as well as founder and medical director of the Dr. Shel Wellness & Medical Spa in Sugar Land, Texas. “PMS Support formula helps my female patients have a better quality of life.”†

Research shows that premenstrual symptoms can be associated with high estrogen and low progesterone levels or potentially high prolactin levels. PMS Support with BioResponse DIM features a combination of specific nutrients specially formulated to balance these hormones, providing healthier estrogen levels and symptom support.† These specially formulated ingredients include:

• BioResponse DIM, a bioavailable form of diindolylmethane to support healthy hormone levels†
• Chaste Berry extract to support normal prolactin levels and hormone balancing†
• Vitamin D, magnesium, and B vitamins to aid in mood stabilization†

Clinical trials showed that B vitamins, especially vitamin B-6, support mood, and behavioral PMS symptoms.

Douglas Laboratories hosted an educational webinar for healthcare professionals, presented by Lalji May 8 titled “The Integrative Approach to Balancing Women’s Hormones.”
