We represent Mitamins, an on-line company supplying customized vitamin supplements to the USA. We hope this information may be of interest to you. 

Menopause is the cessation of the monthly female menstrual cycle. Women who have not had a menstrual period for a year are considered postmenopausal. Most commonly, menopause takes place when a woman is in her late forties or early fifties. Women who have gone through menopause are no longer fertile. Menopause is not a disease and cannot be prevented. Many hormonal changes occur during menopause. Postmenopausal women are at higher risk of heart disease and osteoporosis, presumably because of a decrease in the production of estrogen or other hormones.

The following nutritional components may be beneficial. Chaste Tree is used for irregularities of the menstrual cycle and mastodynia and may help balance hormone levels. Dong Quai is often considered the female Ginseng and is a traditional herb for women's health. It is also traditionally used as a uterine tonic. Black Cohosh helps with menstrual and menopausal health. Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant. Preliminary studies found vitamin E to be effective in relieving hot flashes and may improve the blood supply to the vaginal wall in menopausal women. Licorice has phytoestrogens that perform functions similar to those of estrogen produced by a woman's body. Siberian Ginseng is traditionally used to help improve general well-being. Calcium has been shown beneficial for relieving nevousness and irritability, and helps to protect against bone loss. Vitamin D promotes normal skeletal and tooth formation by stimulating calcium and phosphorus absorption, and playing a key role in their metabolism. Soy Isoflavones can be a natural alternative to estrogen replacement therapy for relief of mild menopausal symptoms, such as hot flashes and night sweats.

Dr. Balch works with Mitamins to provide custom-made natural remedies for anyone who wants an all-in-one daily supplement that addresses all their health concerns, as well as providing the vitamins and minerals needed for optimum health and wellness.
