Dr Marilyn Glenville BLACK COHOSH PLUS
Black Cohosh Plus is a unique blend of five organic herbs for women over the age of 45.
Black Cohosh - used for centuries by the native American Indian wise women - being the most effective has always been the herb of choice. Red Sage and Milk Thistle are excellent herbs for creating harmony and balance.
Agnus Castus and Dong Quai have also been used for centuries in this regard. These herbs complement each other and work most effectively together.
As the menopause is a natural stage in a woman's life, it is something that the body can cope with perfectly well if given the chance.
If you knew there were safe, effective, natural that can help combat the hot flushes and night sweats, would you really want to put yourself at risk of getting breast cancer, heart disease and/or blood clots by taking HRT.
The menopause is a transition, as natural and inevitable as the transition from childhood to puberty. What can be done to help your body make this transition naturally, efficiently and comfortably? Nature takes her time; she does things gradually. The change of life is a gradual process, allowing our bodies to get used to the changes and to adapt accordingly. Diet, nutrition and a healthy lifestyle are crucial to enable your body to do this. In fact, many problems experienced by women at the time of the menopause have more to do with poor nutrition than with falling hormone levels. By fundamentally improving your health and using natural remedies it is possible to help your body to balance itself and so be able to avoid or to treat these symptoms. In order to do this it is essential that you are getting the right nutrients and herbs in the right quantities to maximise their effect.
Black Cohosh Plus contains the most important and highest quality organic herbs known to be effective.
Formulated by Dr Marilyn Glenville PhD - the UK's leading nutritionist specialising in women's health - in association with the Natural Health Practice.
Herbs
Black Cohosh - from all the published research, the herb that has the most dramatic effect on hot flushes and night sweats is black Cohosh. It was originally used by Native North Americans and is very effective in helping with hormonal imbalances. It has a generally calming effect on the nervous system and as well as the hot flushes can be helpful when your other symptoms include anxiety, tension and depression.
Agnus Castus has a balancing effect on hormones and is one of the best herbs to take as the menopause approaches, when you may still be having periods and generally feel that your hormones are 'all over the place'.
Dong Quai is a herb used in traditional Chinese medicine as a tonic for the female reproductive system. It is used both for relieving hot flushes as well as vaginal dryness.
Milk thistle is an important herb for the liver, which is useful at the menopause to make sure that all 'old hormones' are being excreted efficiently.
