I reply---

PMDD certainly does not mean just a reference of "do it yourself
"micronutrients
unless you do not know the constituents of PMDD itself, which is why I had
to
quote the "an assortment of citations ".

If you do not know the constituents of any solution kindly do not pass such
superfluous comments which can mislead any newbie.

This is the purpose why I had to pursue this matter and put up "an
assortment of citations"
so that anybody reading this digest knows that even lurkers are aware of
some basics(historical though they may be).
