Summary

Due to the Westernization of diet in Taiwan, the risk of many chronic diseases has increased. Some diseases and improper treatments are closely related to menstrual pain and functional impairment in women. Women's menstrual pain can affect daily life and work, and many plant-based extracts have been found to have beneficial effects on alleviating menstrual pain. Therefore, the development of functional health food that can improve menstrual pain is of great significance for health promotion and the market.

Coix seed has long been understood to have properties beneficial for menstrual health. Scientific research has demonstrated its effectiveness in alleviating menstrual pain. The primary ingredient, "coix seed extract," has been extensively studied, and its efficacy has been confirmed through numerous clinical and animal experiments. This study aims to scientifically investigate the effect of coix seed compound extract on menstrual pain in women and to understand its underlying mechanism and potential benefits.
