nature’s hormonal reset + potent pain relief iv therapy patch

benefits

black cohosh root: binds to your body’s opioid receptors, giving it a painkilling effect. Today, it’s sometimes used to reduce the muscle aches and body pains associated with menopause, peri-menopause and post-menopause. Both traditional Chinese medicine and Western herbal tradition have long used black cohosh to reduce pain and calm the nervous system. North American Indigenous peoples have also long used black cohosh to treat the pain associated with periods, childbirth and menopause symptoms. And in the 20th century, some physicians began using black cohosh for pain associated with gynecological disorders. Today this root is a popular treatment for reducing hot flashes which are due in part to estrogen withdrawal, are the most common complaint during menopause, impacting up to 80% of women.

red raspberry leaf: includes vitamins and minerals such as vitamins A, B6, C, E, potassium, zinc, phosphorus, and calcium. Studies have shown that raspberry leaf can act as a relaxant in the gastrointestinal tract. This can result in reduced cramping during menstruation. Other raspberry leaf benefits include combating anemia from its iron content. This is important for a woman’s cycle, but especially if you have more frequent or heavy bleeds. Many iron supplements can cause constipation and are not readily absorbed.

chasteberry (vitex): reduces uterine fibroids, increases fertility in women, protects the prostate of men, naturally treats endometriosis, relieves pms and menopausal symptoms, and clears acne by balancing the body’s hormones.

dong quai: is also known as ‘female ginseng’ and is in the same family as carrots, celery, and parsley. It’s benefits include:

1. Alleviates Iron Deficiency Anemia: A lack of iron in the diet can result in iron deficiency anemia, which can cause headaches, insomnia, and fatigue. Dong Quai may help increase the hemoglobin in your blood, boosting oxygen supply to cells.
2. Eases Pre and Post Menstruation Symptoms: Dong Quai is helpful both before and after monthly menstrual cycles, replenishing lost blood while also reducing the pain of cramps and supporting a regular cycle. If estrogen levels are out of balance, Dong Quai may assist in returning balance. It can benefit menopausal women suffering from hot flashes due to estrogen imbalance.
3. Encourages Skin Health: Dong Quai may also provide valuable benefits for those with eczema and rosacea. This versatile herb supports circulation and is used to promote healing for many skin-related conditions.
4. Supports Fertility: This potent herb is often used to treat infertility in men and women. Dong Quai has large amounts of the antioxidant ferulic acid. In men, it supports sperm quality; in women, it supports ovulation and follicular development. Dong Quai may contribute to successful fertility efforts when used in tandem with other treatments. 
5. Elevates Mood: Dong Quai has been used to reduce stress and tension, and promote well-being and relaxation. 
6. Reduces Inflammation Symptoms: In addition to an anti-inflammatory diet, Dong Quai can help alleviate inflammatory symptoms, such as migraine headaches and chronic fatigue. 
7. Strengthens “Qi”: With more balance in your body, your Qi (vital energy) is strengthened. Dong Quai can help individuals to feel physically and emotionally balanced and healthy.  
8. Acts as a Blood Tonic: As mentioned above, Dong Quai supports circulation, especially in the abdomen and pelvis. But it is also nutrient-rich, providing vitamins and minerals to support the health of your blood. These nutrients include vitamin B12, folic acid, and biotin. Dong Quai may also alleviate tissue congestion through enhanced blood and lymph circulation. Dong Quai also delivers nicotinic acid, thought to relax blood vessels and improve circulation.

DIM: Cruciferous vegetables such as brussels sprouts, cauliflower, garden cress, mustard greens, radishes, turnip, and kale contain a compound called indole-3-carbinol. When indole-3-carbinol mixes with your stomach acid, it creates a chemical reaction that converts it to Diindolylmethane (DIM). In order for estrogen to be metabolized by the body, it must be combined with oxygen as part of aerobic metabolism. Diindolylmethane helps to metabolize ‘good estrogen’ in the body while subsequently decreasing ‘bad estrogen’. ’Good estrogen’ has the ability to protect the heart and brain with antioxidant activity, promote cell growth, and rid the body of damaged cells. Thus promoting ‘good estrogen vs. bad estrogen’ ratios.

DIM combats premature aging in men and women because DIM is an aromatase inhibitor. Aromatase is an enzyme that converts testosterone to estrogen. Slowing down the conversion of testosterone to estrogen can free up some of your testosterone, maintain better estrogen levels, and balance out your hormones. Diindolylmethane (DIM) can help the body detect the inflamed cells and eliminate them, replacing them with healthy cells thus resulting in slowing of the aging process. Diindolylmethane (DIM) has powerful anti-inflammatory properties. Diindolylmethane (DIM) directs the body to produce cancer preventing chemicals like 2-hydroxy estrogens which have powerful anti-inflammatory properties. It also prevents the formation of inflammatory enzymes. Among the many factors provoking inflammation are, lack of exercise and high carbohydrate diets. Diindolylmethane (DIM), taken as a supplement can help prevent the accumulation of toxins acquired from pesticide rich food, plastics and other harmful chemicals. This is done by DIM acting as a catalyst for the elimination of such toxins from the body. Diindolylmethane (DIM) supplements can also help support antioxidant enzymes and suppress the activity of inflammatory receptors in body tissues. It has also been found that Diindolylmethane (DIM) prevents inflammation causing cytokine release from cells called macrophages in the body, again reducing inflammation and aging. It also acts to prevent diseases in the prostate, breast and uterus by its protective estrogenic effects.
