Clinical Use:
As part of a supplemental program to relieve menopausal symptoms such as: hot flashes, night sweats, insomnia, fatigue, depression, irritability. Take once at 3-4 PM and again before bed. For more severe symptoms, also take midmorning. Discontinue use during menstruation.
Cautions & Considerations :
Discontinue use with cold or flu symptoms or use the formula "Self Defense or Attack". Can be taken along with estrogen supplementation (synthetic or natural creams) if needed.
How it Works:
Black Cohosh is well know by western herbalists for its estrogen stimulating abilities. Wheat Berries, JuJube fruit and Licorice Root have the synergistic action of calming the nervous system. Kava Kava enhances that function. Recent studies indicate that it can also help reduce night sweats.
The balance of the herbs in this formula work together to eliminate the night sweats and regulate the hormones. In western terms, one could say that it helps improve the balance of Yin (Progesterone) and Yang (Estrogen).
