We explain that in the study of the asymptotic expansion at the origin of a period integral like $gamma$z $omega$/df or of a hermitian period like f =s $rho$.$omega$/df $land$ $omega$ /df the computation of the Bernstein polynomial of the fresco (filtered differential equation) associated to the pair of germs (f, $omega$) gives a better control than the computation of the Bernstein polynomial of the full Brieskorn module of the germ of f at the origin. Moreover, it is easier to compute as it has a better functoriality and smaller degree. We illustrate this in the case where f $in$ C[x 0 ,. .. , x n ] has n + 2 monomials and is not quasi-homogeneous, by giving an explicite simple algorithm to produce a multiple of the Bernstein polynomial when $omega$ is a monomial holomorphic volume form. Several concrete examples are given.
