Guest guest Posted August 10, 2004 Report Share Posted August 10, 2004 Many of my clients find MACA from www.wholeworldbotanicals.com is a great supplement for hot flashes. I would not recommend any other brand as this company uses only Certified Royal Maca roots whereas other companies may use other parts of the plant that are not as effective. This herb also helps the thyroid gland and many women have been able to reduce or eliminate their thyroid medication by taking Maca. I monitor my thyroid by temperature only. If that doesn't seem to help, I would recommend Suzanne Somer's book on bio-identical hormone supplementation. This book is full of fascinating information on natural hormone balancing for women AND men. Namaste.....................Kim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 10, 2004 Report Share Posted August 10, 2004 Black Cohosh and some st s worth for moodswings a good company I know about in Canada is: NUFEM Enzymatic Therapy in Burnaby BC Question re Menopause protocols etc Dear group, I would be grateful if anyone can give me any advice on helping my partner deal with the frequent hot flushes she is experiencing during menopause. I have been earnestly suggesting that she does not take HRT (easy for me to say as I am not suffering the hot flushes!) but do not know which natural supplements / approaches have proven to be effective. She is not a lover of taking 'pills' and tends to forget to take them but she has tried Red Clover and I have run the auto therapies and hormone balance but without much success. If she does not find something soon to make a difference I fear she will end up going on HRT. Many thanks, Mike.............................................

Guest guest Posted August 10, 2004 Report Share Posted August 10, 2004 Try Black Cohosh and Progesterone. You take the Cohosh until the progesterone balances the system and then discontinue.

Guest guest Posted August 10, 2004 Report Share Posted August 10, 2004 FYI - Dr. Lee is the authority on hormone replacement for menopausal conditions. He states that there needs to me a certain amount of certain ingredients in a natural formula for it work effectively. One of the brands that works (because there is tons of stuff out there that doesn't work) is Nugest 900 by Nutraceutics. I personally have used it for 10 years and I have had a complete hysterectomy. If you are interested in purchasing Nugest 900 at wholesale (this is not mlm) contact me personally. moneca@...

Guest guest Posted August 10, 2004 Report Share Posted August 10, 2004 With Red clover and other isoflavone supplements or foods a healthy bowel flora is essential to activate them. Therefore it is worth checking bowel flora on the SCIO and remedying with Probiotics, FOS and dietary changes etc.. prior to use of these supplements.

Guest guest Posted August 13, 2004 Report Share Posted August 13, 2004 Hello Mike, I agree with Moneca's info re: Dr. Lee and Menopause. He's written acouple books - one called " Menopause and what your doctor is not telling you. " Excellent. I do use a nataural Progesteron cream that was put together by Dr. Lee called " Gest One " it is from a MLM and I sell it wholesale. I swear by it myself - and have several loyal & very happy QXCI friends using it now - both men & women. If you'd like feel free to email me your name & mailing address and I'll get you an audio tape of Dr Lee's free in the mail to you. Its also my belief that better nutritional support especially detoxing & supporting the liver & bowels has helped me greatly - as exercise & meditation have helped balanced me too. Does she exercise at all? There is also a saliva test that I did from ZRT LABS in WA that pointed me in the right direction too. The company I deal with sells those too. Enjoy your day & weekend!

Guest guest Posted August 14, 2004 Report Share Posted August 14, 2004 Progesterone cream seems to be a standard for women going into menopause. It is suggested that the individual apply it to the soft tissue in the groin and under the arms and move it around to various areas, (Also helps with osteoblast production--bone cell growth) . Using the hormone would be a treatment more at a causal level. Also, never forget how important EFAs are to hormone production, building blocks of hormones. If you find fatty acids are low on qxci testings, which they usually are, make sure these are added in. Additionally, Vitex/Chaste tree berry extract taken to reset the pituitary and can therefore, eliminate hot flashes. We use Zand brand with excellent results, follow the directions initially and increase if necessary. Usually four to six weeks is enough of Vitex. I use progesterone from Dixie Labs in Marietta, GA.
