This amphoteric herb lowers or raises hormone levels according to individual needs. Since most women with hormonal imbalances lack progesterone, increased progesterone action from this herb facilitates regular menstrual cycles and optimal functioning of the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis. Flavonoids isolated from vitex have been shown to have anti-neoplastic activity and hypoprolactinemic effects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlack Cohosh (Actaea racemosa): Another botanical compound commonly used for women's health, black cohosh is traditionally used to alleviate menopausal symptoms due to its mild phytoestrogenic action and modulation of luteinizing hormone (LH). Luteinizing hormone levels are greatly reduced by black cohosh extracts while follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) levels are not. Black Cohosh has been shown in various studies to reduce hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness and thinning hair, sleep disorders and emotional symptoms. Black cohosh extracts have been shown to maximize the effects of tamoxifen, although stimulatory effects on estrogen-positive breast cancer cells could not be demonstrated. Extensive studies in Germany have revealed that black cohosh reduces menopausal and premenopausal symptoms. The antispasmodic property of this plant can also relieve menstrual cramps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eResveratrol (Polygonum cuspidatum): Although this plant is best known for its powerful cardioprotective, antioxidant and anti-carcinogenic properties, it is also a phytoestrogen. Resveratrol provides overall antioxidant protection and a safe hormone-balancing effect, especially for women in menopause and perimenopause.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTurmeric (Curcuma longa), rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis), grape seed (Vitis vinifera) and green tea (Camellia sinensis): This combination of herbs provides a broad antioxidant effect. Many of these powerful compounds have been shown to have potential anti-carcinogenic effects against female cancers. Designs for Health uses only the highest quality standardized herbs, including an unparalleled green tea extract with 50% EGCG.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDIM (diindolylmethane) and chrysin: These two ingredients were added because of their ability to safely optimize estrogen metabolism and neutralize unwanted proliferative effects. Inadequate conversion to estrogen by aromatase has been associated with certain types of breast cancer and other female cancers. Dietary indoles, found in Brassica plants such as cabbage, broccoli and Brussels sprouts, have been shown to be effective in providing protection against hormone-dependent cancers. Studies have shown that of all the indole metabolites, diindolylmethane (DIM) offers the greatest protection against cancer. DIM has been reported to provide benefits in women with perimenopausal symptoms, including PMS, painful or difficult periods, endometriosis or cervical dysplasia. Women on hormone replacement therapy may also benefit from DIM supplementation with improved estrogen metabolism and reduced breast pain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCalcium and Magnesium: Supplementation with these minerals has been shown to reduce premenstrual syndrome (PMS) symptoms and can lead to more efficient enzyme activity, less cramping and healthier bone density. As with all Designs for Health products, minerals are available in their true Albion? chelated form for increased bioavailability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVitamins B6, B12 and folate (as NatureFolateTM blend): These nutrients are included to support healthy cell differentiation, including cervical cells, to reduce the incidence of cervical dysplasia. Cervical cancer is a major health concern, where it is estimated that 1 in 149 Canadian women will develop cancer in their lifetime. Regular gynecological check-ups and pap smears, combined with FemGuard + Balance, are a proactive approach to cancer prevention. In addition, these B vitamins lower homocysteine levels, a marker of heart disease that is a leading cause of death in women according to the Heart and Stroke Foundation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eDosage\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003cb\u003eAdults: \u003c\/b\u003eTake 4 capsules daily or as directed by your healthcare professional.
