Natural Support for Menopausal Symptoms

AIM RevitaFem®; is a natural, botanical supplement that has been formulated to support physical and emotional balance during menopause and provide relief of the discomforts that can be associated with this most important life passage. It contains herbal sources of phytoestrogens and supporting herbs, each addressing specific issues that occur in the female body during this transitional period in life.

Phytoestrogens are simply plant estrogens with mild estrogenic effects that can modulate out-of-balance estrogen levels. If your estrogen levels are too low, phytoestrogens will act as substitutes for your fluctuating hormones; if your estrogen levels are too high, phytoestrogens will block overstimulated receptor cells.

Because plant sources have varying amounts and kinds of phytoestrogens, multiple sources are used in this product to enhance the efficacy of AIM RevitaFem®. This new, comprehensive formula contains eight botanical ingredients. All help to regulate and balance body systems. The recommended daily serving of two vegetarian capsules contain:

Black Cohosh Root - 40 mg standardized extract 2.5% triterpene glycosides

The Complete German Commission E Monographs lists this herb as having estrogen-like action with the ability to bind to estrogen receptors. Black cohosh, a traditional botanical, is noted for its colling property and assists in relieving hot flashes, night sweats, and vaginal atrophy (deterioration). Its anti-inflammatory properties aid in combating the aging apiral. The sedative properties of this herb provide a calming effect for anxiety, nervousness, and muscular spasms.

Dong Quai Root - 250 mg standardized extract 1% ligustilide

This botanical used in Chinese medicine is known to relieve hot flashes and vaginal atrophy. It acts as a tonic to promote good health and to strengthen the blood and uterus. It also alleviates fatigue, reduces swelling, and combats anemia. Research indicates that this herb has an antibiotic effect against many bacteria, thereby providing support to the immue system. It also has a mild sedative effect to offset mood swings and promote relaxation during this stressful time.

Soy Extract - 65 mg standardized 40% isoflavones - GMO-free

Soy extract contains the phytoestrogens genistein and daidzein, which promote bone formation and therefore counteract osteoporosis. Genistein has been the subject of numerous studies demonstrating that it has significant anticancer properties. Soy isoflavones are only 1 1/,000 as strong as estrogen but can fit into estrogen receptor sites in the body, thereby blocking the more potent, cancer-causing human estrogen. Women who consume soy isoflavones experience fewer hot flashes and night sweats. Researchers have shown that soy can improve the quality of sleep.

Red Clover Blossom - 100 mg standardized extract 8% isoflavones

The isoflavone properties of genistein and daidzein are what make red clover useful for menopause. This herb is valued for relieving hot flashes. Red clover encourages the removal (detoxification) of toxic waste products in the blood and provides liver support. It has anti-inflammatory properties. Red clover also promotes calcium storage and the maintenance of bone density.

Wild Yam Root - 100 mg

This formula uses the full spectrum of the natural plant. Wild yam diminished cramps and uterine discomfort, and indirectly helps nourish bones. Some industry experts contend that the sterols in yam can be effectively utilized to product mild progesterone-like effects, which reduces estrogen dominance.

Panax (or Asian) Ginseng Root - 100 mg standardized extract 6% gensenosides

Ginsengs are useful for the many supporting and harmonizing effects they promote throughout the body's hormonal and biochemical systems. Panax ginseng (also called Asian ginseng) contains phytoestrogens. It is noted as being useful in preventing vaginal atrophy. Cinseng is valuable as an antistress agent and helps to eliminate fatigue, accounting for its reputation as a rejuvenator.

Burdock Root - 150 mg

The cooling properties of burdock help alleviate hot flashes. It is known for cleansing toxins from the system, dispelling liver stagnation, helping to lower excessive blood sugar levels, promoting digestion, and protecting against tumor development. Known for its antibacterial and antigungal effects, it promotes and enhances immune system function.

Hesperidin complex - 100 mg

Hesperidin is one of a group of therapeutically useful bioflavonoids. These work to keep capillary blood vessels strong and to reduce vascular fragility and subsequent bleeding and bruising. Overall, this group has potent antioxidants, many of which have been found to be cardio-protective, anti-inflammatory, anti-infectious, and immuno-stimulating. This helps to fight free radical damage, which slows down the aging process.

Powerhouse of menopausal support

The combination of botanicals in AIM RevitaFem® provides a synergistic powerhouse in the support of menopause management. Plase note that this formula is strictly contraindicated during pregnancy and lactation. If you experience long and heavy periods, consult a health care practitioner before use.

Lifestyle support

Of course, taking a natural, botanical supplement like AIM RevitaFem® is only part of a menopause management program. After a lifetime of prescription drugs, stress, poor food choices, and environmental pollutants, the liver and adrenal glands have become taxed leading to even greater hormonal imbalance. It is necessary to provide support to the liver and adrenals to aid the body through the transition. To support a system going through the "change", it is wise to incorporate the following lifestyle factors:
