DESCRIPTION

For WOMEN Only^™, by Nutrition Dynamics^®, supplies a synergistic blend of herbs and other nutrients designed to support healthy estrogen function.

FUNCTIONS

The isoflavone complex of soy, Pueraria lobata & red clover, support 2-hydroxylation, glucose utilization and bone health. Phytoestrogens mimic the functions of estrogens without proliferative actions, and include Black cohosh, and Salvia which support and minimize the changes sometimes experienced during menopause.

The phytoestrogens found in Dong Quai help to increase vaginal lubrication by maintaining mucus tissue health. Adaptogens with nootropic properties such as Bacopa, Salvia and Schisandra support cognition, memory and the facilitation of learning; functions associated with optimal estrogen function. The antioxidant properties in this formulation, further enhanced by Cranberry fruit extract, maintain the antioxidant activity provided by healthy estrogen function. This formulation offers support of healthy estrogen function.

INDICATIONS

For WOMEN Only^™ may be a useful dietary adjunct for individuals who wish to support healthy estrogen function.
