Oestro-Balance (oestrogen balance)
Oestro-Balance (oestrogen balance)
Pippa Campbell Oestro-Balance formula supports low and fluctuating oestrogen levels associated with peri-menopause and menopause. Made with an optimal combination of nutrients and herbs to help support the needs of women experiencing low oestrogen symptoms such as hot flushes, vaginal dryness, night sweats, irritability, sleep disruption, low energy and low mood.
Ingredients
Soy isoflavones - 100% natural plant isoflavones which act as weak natural oestrogen in the body. Note: isoflavones are plant compounds not soy proteins. People who react to soy products react to the protein. Soy isoflavones can bind to oestrogen receptors in the body and cause either weak oestrogenic or anti-oestrogenic activity.
Horsetail extract - provides a natural form of silica. Useful for water retention.
Vitamin C – contributes to normal function of the immune system and energy production; normal function of the nervous system and protection of cells from oxidative stress.
Vitamin E – contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress.
Vitamin K - contributes to normal blood clotting, maintenance of normal skin, bones, red blood cells and vision; reduction of tiredness and fatigue and protection of cells from oxidative stress.
Magnesium – contributes to reduction of tiredness and fatigue and energy production; normal muscle and nervous system functions; maintenance of normal bones and teeth,
Zinc – contributes to normal cognitive function, bone, nails, skin and hair, as well as fertility and protection of cells from oxidative stress.
Chromium – contributes to normal blood glucose levels.
Copper - contributes to maintenance of normal connective tissue; normal energy production; normal hair and skin pigmentation; normal function of the immune system and protection of cells from oxidative stress.
Manganese - contributes to normal energy production; maintenance of normal bones; normal formation of connective tissues and protection of cells from oxidative stress.
Bioactive ingredients in Menopause Support Formula include:
Mena Q7 - a clinically validated form of Vitamin K2 as Menaquinone-7 (MK-7). Vitamin K2 better absorbed than Vitamin K1. The structure of MK-7 also allows this form to remain in the blood longer than Vitamin K1, increasing its bioavailability.
Citrate (Citrizorb) minerals including Magnesium, Zinc and Manganese Citrizorb - citrate minerals have been shown to have greater bioavailability compared to inorganic carbonate or oxide mineral forms.
Quatrefolic - a specific clinically validated form of reduced and methylated folate. Folic acid and food folate are not biologically active and need to be converted to the metabolically active form of folate (5-MTHF) in the body. Some individuals, due to their unique genetic patterns and expression (i.e. polymorphisms), do not produce adequate or effective folate converting enzymes (Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase - MTHFR).
Use: 1 capsule three times a day. Can be taken alongside HRT.
