Sage leaves
Sage leaves reduce excessive perspiration due to menopausal hot flashes
during the day or at night. In a preliminary study, supplementation with
the leaves of sage resulted in complete elimination of hot flashes and night
sweats in 20 of 30 women, with varying degrees of improvement in the
other ten cases.
Lemon balm
Lemon balm has antibacterial, antiviral properties, and it is also used as a
mild sedative or calming agent. It is added to MenoSense tea because it
has been found effective at reducing stress and calming the system. Stress
reduction helps to reduce the number of hot flashes and night sweats
experienced during menopause.
Chaste tree berry
Commonly used for PMS and infertility, Chaste tree berry is an important
herb for women during the menopause years. It normalizes prolactin levels,
which are often high during menopause and which can cause male facial
hair growth, weight gain and skin outbreaks. Chaste tree berry enhances
progesterone naturally thereby aiding hormone balance while reducing the
symptoms of excess prolactin.
St. John’s wort
St. John’s wort was found in several meta-analysis studies (Cochrane Review)
to be significantly superior to placebo and similarly effective as standard
antidepressants for treating mild to moderate depression. A double-blind,
placebo controlled, randomized study in Obstetrics and Gynecology in
February of 2006 found St. John’s wort along with Black cohosh significantly
better than placebo in eliminating hot flashes, night sweats and mood related
menopause symptoms. St. John’s wort has been shown to improve mild to
moderate depression and mood disorders related to the menopausal transition.
Another study showed sexual wellbeing improved in menopausal women
using St. John’s wort.
Cinnamon, ginger root, carob, chocolate and stevia are added to MenoTea
