 Science and Ingredients

    Soy isoflavones have been proven to raise oestrogen levels when they are low and reduce them when they are high. By acting as mild oestrogens themselves, they exert this effect and in so doing offer relief from hot flushes and night sweats as well as helping to prevent the neurodegeneration and cognitive decline that accompanies falling oestrogen levels. Studies have shown that soy isoflavones significantly improve cognitive performance in postmenopausal women.[1]

Further evidence of their efficacy was published earlier this year in a study that showed women supplementing with soy isoflavones had significantly fewer hot flushes, in number and severity, than those who didn’t..[2] Menopause rating-scale scores (a way of reflecting general menopausal symptoms) also significantly decreased compared to baseline with isoflavone supplementation and mood was seen to dramatically improve over the study period.

Klamath blue-green algae, the most nutrient-dense food on earth provides a myriad of nutrients (amino acids, vitamins, minerals, super-antioxidants, enzymes, chlorophyll) and precursors for hormones and neurotransmitters. It is exceptionally rich in phenylethylamine (PEA), the amino acid we produce naturally in the brain when we feel happy, calm and focussed. PEA is a neuroregenerative molecule proven to improve attention, mental acuity, mood and levels of dopamine also known as the ‘feel good’ hormone, vital for concentration, short term memory, motivation and to generate feelings of sexual desire. A recent study showed that menopausal women who received PEA rich extracts from Klamath had significantly improved psychological profiles over those taking placebo, thus reporting a consistent change in their quality of life, for mood, anxiety and depressive attitude.[3]

Angelica sinensis (also known as ‘female ginseng’) is considered in Chinese medicine to be a key plant for regulating the female hormonal system

Cimicifuga racemosa has been shown in studies to be effective at relieving menopausal complaints.[4]

1.Two studies by the research group of Prof. Louise Dye, Human Appetite Research Unit, the Institute of Psychological Sciences at the University of Leeds, demonstrate a statistically significant effect of the consumption of soy isoflavones on specific aspects of memory in postmenopausal women. In 21 postmenopausal women, 100mg/d soy isoflavones taken for 8 weeks improved specific indices of verbal learning and memory after 4 weeks, and frontal lobe functioning after 8 weeks. Soy isoflavones were found to exert stronger cognitive effects in postmenopausal women compared to premenopausal women.  The physiological response to soy isoflavones may differ between postmenopausal and premenopausal women.  Circulating oestrogen was not significantly affected by soy isoflavones in the premenopausal women, but there was a significant increase in peripheral oestrogen in the postmenopausal women. It is well established that endogenous oestrogen levels play an important role in cognition. Oestrogen levels are also linked with neurodegeneration with age and cognitive decline in postmenopausal women.
