Fem Support

Main Page / Resources & Referrals / Vitamins

Helps support a woman's health during normal mid-life changes.

Dietary Supplement

The most potent formula available for women during mid-life changes. This product contains potencies and standardization levels of ingredients that have been well studied. The emphasis in this formula is on high potencies of Standardized Soy Isoflavones (trademarked), Black Cohosh and Red Clover Extracts.

  • Black cohosh extract inhibits the production of luteinizing hormone. As estrogen levels drop in middle aged women, luteinizing hormone exerts a stronger role and causes many of the symptoms associated with menopause such as hot flashes and irritability.
  • Isoflavones found in soybeans and red clover extract are similar to estrogen. In fact, these compounds can occupy estrogen receptor sites and weakly (gently) fulfill some of estrogen's responsibilities. When estrogen levels are low, this activity can restore normal hormonal balance. Maitake D-Fraction extract is classified as a cancer fighting and immuno-stimulating drug in Japan. Maitake, shiitake and reishi mushrooms have well documented activity for stimulating natural killer cells, macrophages and certain T-cells. The TD Fraction of maitake is a dry form of the D-Fraction imported from Japan that can be used for encapsulation.
  • Astragalus and ligustrum contain compounds that stimulate the B-cell branch of the immune system. This branch maintains a vigorous defense during long-term chronic illness.
  • Antioxidants such as Vitamin C, beta carotene and zinc help recovery from acute infections by detoxifying harmful compounds generated by our immune response and microbes.
