Estro-Mend™, provided by Douglas Laboratories®,
supplies a synergistic blend of herbs and other nutrients designed to support
healthy estrogen function. 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. Estro-Mend may be a useful dietary adjunct for
individuals who wish to support healthy estrogen function. Adults take 3 capsules daily with meals or as
directed by physician. WARNING: Not to be used by pregnant or nursing
women.
