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.
In my book ‘New Natural Alternatives to HRT’, I explain the impact of nutrition on the menopause and give nutritional advice for you to follow. Also given in great detail is a list of the most important supplements and herbs required in order to help you through the menopause.
To make things easier and more convenient for you I have formulated two very special supplements. They are called Meno Support and Black Cohosh Support and they contain the vitamins, minerals and herbs that you need to have an easy menopause. I have ensured that Meno Support and Black Cohosh Support include only the highest quality and most important nutrients and herbs scientifically known to help with the menopause.

Why these ingredients?
Vitamin E has been shown to significantly reduce hot flushes and night sweats and is also a powerful antioxidant that helps protect cells from damage.
The B vitamins, known as the ‘stress’ vitamins, are also important for keeping blood sugar under control and maintaining a healthy weight.
Magnesium is known as ‘nature’s tranquilliser’ and is helpful for the mood swings, anxiety and irritability that can come around the menopause. Magnesium also helps the body to process calcium, which is important for bones.
Calcium is important for good bone health around the menopause and beyond.
Digestive enzymes to ensure that the supplement is well absorbed and when taken along with meals, help that food to be digested and absorbed efficiently.
Plus all the other important nutrients known to help with the menopause.
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.
The best approach to eliminate the hot flushes and night sweats is to take a good mix of these ‘menopause’ herbs with Black Cohosh Support and Meno Support as the staples.
