Hormone Balance

As mentioned before, having a balanced set of hormones is crucial for ensuring clear and effective communication between different systems within the body. The great thing about Hormone Balance is that it is specifically designed for women, using key ingredients that support the endocrine system and help balance female hormones. An example of a female-specific hormonal communication network is the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis, which controls the release of female sex hormones and the process of menstruation. Hormone imbalances within this axis can lead to common conditions like an irregular cycle and heightened menstrual cramping.

Therefore, to ensure balanced hormone levels, we have selected specific adaptogenic ingredients that help to: 

• nourish your body
• stimulate and strengthen your body's stress-protection response 
• regulate your cycle 
• encourage your body back into a balanced state of homeostasis

Black Cohosh is a well-studied, traditional and therapeutic herb containing several bioactive ingredients that help relieve symptoms of menopause and premenstrual syndrome (PMS), like anxiety, hot flashes, night sweats and vaginal dryness.

Ashwagandha is a popular therapeutic herb with more than 80 bioactive ingredients. Ashwagandha traditionally comes from Ayurvedic medicine and functions as an adaptogenic tonic which helps reduce stress and relieve pain. 

Chaste Tree is one of the most commonly used therapeutic herbs for treating female health issues, including menstrual disorders like premenstrual syndrome (PMS), painful menstruation, hormone-related acne and menopause. The healing properties of Chaste Tree are mainly due to its ability to decrease the hormone prolactin, which helps to rebalance other hormones like estrogen and progesterone.

Dong Quai (Angelica) is a traditional Chinese therapeutic herb used in Chinese medicine for various conditions, including anaemia, menstrual irregularities, and pain. Dong Quai is a natural muscle relaxant and assists with menstrual cramping.

Licorice Root is a therapeutic herb famous for its anti-inflammatory and antispasmodic properties. Although Licorice Root has been traditionally used to treat a variety of digestive complaints, it is also used for adrenal support. This is because it increases the production of the primary stress hormone cortisol, which helps to combat adrenal insufficiency and the harsh effects of stress on the body. Licorice Root also has an estrogen-like effect that makes it beneficial in managing premenstrual syndrome and menopause.

Rhodiola is an adaptogenic herb that helps to combat both physical and mental fatigue by increasing resistance to stress and exhaustion, stabilising the release of stress hormones and increasing energy metabolism.

Maca is a therapeutic herb that helps to stimulate the endocrine system, assisting with balancing female sex hormones and relieving symptoms of menopause, such as hot flashes and night sweats. 

Siberian Ginseng is a popular adaptogen with estrogenic properties that help improve energy and stamina, which assists in increased physical and mental performance.

Vitamin E is a fat-soluble vitamin and powerful antioxidant that effectively reduces menstrual pain and improves the physical symptoms related to premenstrual syndrome.

Vitamin B1 (Thiamine) supports nervous system health and reduces the risk of depressive symptoms and conditions.

Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin) can help reduce oxidative stress and inflammation of nerves and has been used to supplement the effective treatment of migraines.

Vitamin B3 (Nicotinamide) is an essential vitamin that plays a vital role in energy metabolism and cellular health and helps improve cholesterol levels, reduce blood pressure, and improve skin health.

Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic Acid) is an essential vitamin that is mainly known for its role in converting food into energy and the production of red blood cells. In terms of women's health specifically, it assists the adrenal glands with the production of sex and stress-related hormones, which makes it effective in combatting stress. It also promotes healthy skin, hair, eyes, and liver.

Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine) is an essential co-enzyme responsible for normal brain development and for keeping the nervous system and immune system healthy. Research has shown that it helps reduce symptoms of PMS in women including depression, irritability and tiredness, with evidence that those who take oral contraceptive medications are usually deficient in this essential vitamin and will require supplementation.

Vitamin B8 (Inositol) is a type of sugar famous for its ability to help regulate blood sugar levels in patients with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). This vitamin can also help balance important neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin in the brain, reducing symptoms of depression and anxiety, which often accompany other hormonal imbalances.

Vitamin B9 (Folic Acid) is critical in the production of healthy red blood cells and ensuring rapid growth during pregnancy and foetal development. It is therefore well-known for its use in pregnancy to reduce the risk of birth defects. This is because vitamin B9 (Folic Acid), along with vitamin B12 (Cobalamin), vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine) and Choline, plays a vital role in Methylation, the process of gene regulation. Methylation is crucial in keeping cells healthy and biochemical processes moving. Vitamin B9 also helps decrease the risk of depression and increase cognitive performance.

Vitamin B12 (Methylcobalamin) is a water-soluble vitamin which plays a vital role in red blood cell production, nerve function, DNA production (the molecules inside cells that carry genetic information), bone health, energy levels, and mood. Adequate vitamin B12 levels are therefore crucial to a healthy pregnancy,and together with vitamin B9 (Folic Acid), contribute to the production of healthy red blood cells and help iron work properly in the body.
