About cramp bark, ginger, vitamin B3

Cramp bark, viburnum opulis, was historically used by Native Americans as medicine for reducing swollen glands and fluid retention, and for muscle spasms. Because of its ability to relax tension in smooth muscle, it relieves pain from spasm and also opens up bronchial airways or blood vessels to improve flow and reduce pressure. Nowadays it also used for cough, back pain, and as a kidney tonic for urinary conditions that involve pain or spasms. Cramp bark is also astringent, meaning it has a drying effect and reduces fluid engorgement, which further helps to reduce pain and inflammation. Ginger is an anti-inflammatory, it reduces prostaglandins that mediate inflammation. Vitamin B3, niacin, has been found in studies to relieve severe menstrual cramping in up to 90% of subjects, and has proven effective for normalizing blood flow in Raynaud's phenomenon, painful hand and foot disorder due to constriction of blood vessels with cold exposure. Magnesium is a classic smooth muscle relaxant used to prevent exacerbations of asthma and COPD, and also to help sleep; magnesium infusions are used clinically for acute attacks. Valerian is also an effective antispasmodic that relaxes smooth muscle.Vitamin Ehas been studied since the 1950s for menstrual cramps, and because it reduces risk of blood clots and stroke it complements the blood-pressure lowering effect of cramp bark. Vitamin C also gently lowers blood pressure typically by 5-10 points.
