Ingredient Details for MenoSmart Plus
Dong Quai (Angelica sinensis) Extract 4:1
Dong Quai is an effective treatment for the symptoms of menopause, especially hot flashes, as well as painful menstruation, lack of menstruation (spotting but no full blood flow), and will relieve too frequent menstruation (more than one menstrual cycle per month). In menstruating women it is also recommended for treating infertility.
Chasteberry (Vitex agnus-castus) Extract 10:1
(0.6% Acubine) Vitex, is effective in the balancing of hormones and has been traditionally used for the treatment of menstrual abnormalities, PMS, and menopausal complaints. It is especially important for women who are estrogen dominant with conditions including endometriosis, uterine fibroids, ovarian cysts, fibrocystic breasts and to improve the progesterone to estrogen ratio.
Black Cohosh (Cimicifuga racemosa)
(2mg of triterpene glycosides measured as 27-deoxyacteine) Black cohosh is the most researched herb for the treatment of the symptoms of menopause and replacement for standard hormone replacement therapy (estrogen and progestins). Effective in the treatment of the following perimenopausal and menopausal symptoms: hot flashes, profuse perspiration, headaches, heart palpitations, depression, PMS, dysmenorrhea (painful menstruation), sleep disturbances, vaginal atrophy (thinning of the vagina causing painful intercourse), vaginal dryness, nervousness, irritability and loss of concentration.
Sage Leaf (Salvia Officinalis)
The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) in the European Union recently approved 300 mg of sage as a treatment for excessive perspiration associated with menopause and in the United Kingdom, medical herbalists treat menopausal women suffering hot flashes and night sweats with sage.
Gamma-oryzanol (ferulic acid)
Gamma-oryzanol isolated from rice bran oil is used for the treatment of hot flashes and to enhance pituitary function and promote endorphin release by the hypothalamus thereby improving mood. Not only is it a very effective substance for alleviating menopausal symptoms but it also lowers triglycerides and total cholesterol.
Hesperidin
Hesperidin, a potent flavonoid, improves the vascular system and our capillaries thereby improving cardiovascular health and reduction of bruising. It has also been shown to reduce hot flashes and night time leg cramps.

Stop Hot Flashes and Night Sweats Naturally! by Lorna Vanderhaeghe
Drug manufacturers of Premarin and Prempro have been told to put a strong warning on the label about the increased risk of cell development and heart disease. In July 2002 the Women's Health Initiative study, a clinical trial designed to determine if Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT), a combination of synthetic estrogen and progestins, was beneficial to healthy women, was halted due to serious safety concerns. This study involving 16,608 healthy, postmenopausal women concluded that the combination of estrogen and progestins caused a 41 percent increase in the risk of stroke, a 29 percent increase in the risk of heart attack, a doubled risk of blood clots, a 22 percent increase in cardiovascular disease and a 26 percent increase in the risk of invasive breast growths. Now, caring physicians and hundreds of thousands of Canadian women are looking for alternatives to HRT.
What Do European Doctors Know that North American Docs Don't?
European doctors have been recommending herbal solutions to menopausal symptoms for decades and the research is very clear they are safer and just as effective in 80 percent of users. MENOSMART PLUS contains herbs that can halt hot flashes, night sweats and mood swings, lower cholesterol, improve vaginal dryness and much more.
Black Cohosh Proven Safe
I receive dozens of questions per day about Black cohosh's safety and effectiveness for menopausal symptoms. Some new articles have been published that I feel you should read if you are taking or will be taking Black cohosh. Also on the home page of my website is a list of research papers that prove even further the safety of Black cohosh. Several studies have been performed in women with estrogen-receptor positive breast cell growths taking Tamoxifen (an estrogen-blocking drug) who were given double the dose of Black cohosh for one year with excellent results and safety.
Menopause
Menopause means one year with no menstrual period. Peri-menopause is the 10 to 15 years before menopause and everything after the periods have stopped for one year is post menopause. The average age of menopause is 52 years. At menopause the ovaries have stopped producing eggs and there is no possibility of pregnancy. Smoking, medication, surgery (oophorectomy), radiation and autoimmune disease that affects the ovaries can trigger premature menopause. Menopause is not a disease, but rather is a natural milestone in every woman's life.
Symptoms
On average, 70-80 percent of women will experience mild to moderate symptoms, while 10-15 percent will suffer with severe symptoms and may require hospitalization. The most obvious symptom is the cessation of menses. Symptoms include anxiety, hot flashes and night sweats, problems with sleep, vaginal itching (with or without discharge) brain fog, memory problems, mood swings, irritability, depression, migraine headaches, new environmental allergies and food sensitivities, weight gain, urinary incontinence (aggravated by coughing, sneezing or laughing), recurring urinary tract or vaginal infections. Increased risk of heart disease and bone loss are also associated with menopause in susceptible women.
Causes
Menopause is a natural phase in a woman's life. When our ovaries stop producing estrogen, our adrenal glands are supposed to kick in and provide us with the estrogen we need. Our fat cells also produce estrogen and so does the uterus. Then our liver processes and packages those hormones and the thyroid hormones play a role. What makes the difference between a woman who has no symptoms at menopause and the woman who suffers with a multitude of the symptoms mentioned above? Women with exhausted adrenals, low levels of thyroid hormones and a congested liver will have terrible menopause symptoms compared to women with a healthy liver, thyroid and adrenals. (See Adrenal Exhaustion and Thyroid for more information.) Low levels of thyroid hormones cause extreme hot flashes and night sweats, vaginal dryness and flooding, irregular periods. Exhausted adrenals promote insomnia whereby you go to bed and fall asleep just fine, but wake up three hours later and are unable to return to sleep.
Most women have been taught they are estrogen deficient, yet we are overloaded with toxic environmental estrogens that contribute to our hormonal problems and increase our risk of breast and ovarian growths at menopause.
HRT Concerns:
Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) has hit its demographic sweet spot - with the largest number of baby boomers turning 45 in 2004, expected sales will be in the multi-billions. HRT was originally developed to halt the symptoms of menopause, but doctors also recommended HRT to prevent cardiovascular disease and bone loss, keep teenage girls from growing too tall, relieve depression, reduce urinary incontinence, stop colon cell grwoths and Alzheimer's disease and to keep us young forever. It became the panacea for all sorts of women's conditions and was touted as the "fountain of youth" even though the safety of HRT was still being heavily debated. No randomized, controlled clinical trials were ever conducted to verify that HRT should be used for all those conditions, and its safety in healthy women was never proven. In July 2002, the Women's Health Initiative study, a clinical trial designed to determine if HRT was beneficial to healthy women, was halted five years and two months into the study due to serious safety concerns. This study, which was supposed to last eight years, involved 16,608 healthy, postmenopausal women (meaning they had stopped their periods for 12 months), who were at low risk for heart disease. The women received 0.625mg of equine (horse) estrogen (Premarin) along with 2.5 mg of synthetic progestins for 5.2 years. Premarin (made by Wyeth- Ayerst) contains estradiol plus at least two or more horse estrogens, such as equilin and equilenin. The study concluded that the combination of estrogen and progestins posed a significant health risk to women and that any benefits from HRT were not worth the side effects. The study found a 41 percent increase in the risk of stroke, a 29 percent increase in the risk of heart attack, a doubled risk of blood clots, a 22 percent increase in cardiovascular disease and a 26 percent increase in the risk of invasive breast cell growths.
Later in 2003, scientists reported that women who took the combination of estrogen and progestins also developed such dense breast tissue that it was extremely difficult to detect breast cell growths on a mammogram. Those women also had higher rates of adult-onset asthma. Worse yet, women taking these hormones were found to have double the risk of developing dementia. But the estrogen-only arm of the WHI study was still allowed to continue until 2004, when they halted it due to increased risk of stroke, dementia and mild brain damage. Hopefully, women will pay attention to these results and avoid HRT. Less than 10 percent of all menopausal women will need some type of hormones for extreme, uncontrollable hot flashes and night sweats; the rest can use natural herbs, vitamins, minerals and lifestyle changes.
