Sage Complex capsules, with Sage leaf, help alleviate hot flushes, excessive sweating and other concerns going through the menopause. Sage Complex is an all natural and powerful female hormone balancing supplement containing natural herbs that help to mimic the female hormones and hence help alleviate common menopausal concerns including hot flushes, night sweats and vaginal dryness.
Sage Complex contains:
- Wild Yam - provides diosgenin, a precursor for female hormones.
- Dong Quai - the most widely used female hormonal tonic, dong quai also has hormone mimicing action and may regulate uterine function.
- Red Clover - rich source of isoflavones (water soluble chemicals that act like oestrogen), some studies suggest that it may boost bone density.
- Chaste Berry - acts on the pituitary and hypothalamus helping the body to manufacture more progesterone and hence alleviate hot flushes.
- Sage Leaf - Sage herb has a rich content of hormone mimicking compounds. Sage is usually used in herbal remedies for the menopause because it also works on the hypothalamus, the temperature regulating gland, thus alleviating hot flushes and night sweats.
- Siberian Ginseng - stimulates the adrenals to help energy and stress reduction.
- Hops - aside from their anti-anxiety properties, hops also provide compounds that have been shown to help reduce hot flushing.
- Kudzu - displays a variety of phyto-oestrogens and has been used historically to relieve common menopausal complaints.
