BLACK COHOSH
Can aid with conditions of high estrogen activity ...
The Latin name of black cohosh, Cimicifuga, actually means bug repeller, although today it is better known for its hormonal activity. Black cohosh is a phytoestrogenic agent. This means that it contains plant estrogens, compounds that look similar to human estrogen and can interact with estrogen receptors in the human body. The important thing to remember is that these plant estrogens only stimulate the receptors a fraction of the amount that the hormone estrogen would. Therefore black cohosh can be used to treat conditions of high estrogen activity, by blocking the activity of the hormone estrogen.
Black cohosh can also treat conditions of low estrogen activity by binding to vacant receptor sites and causing a bit of hormonal stimulation. It has been shown useful in treating menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes, anxiety, depression, mood changes, and night sweats. Black cohosh is also know for its ability to regulate periods, ease PMS symptoms, and some believe that it can induce labour. Black cohosh also contains aspirin precursor molecules called salicylates. Because of the salicylates found in Black cohosh, it is considered a pain reliever and anti-inflammatory making it useful for conditions like arthritis. Some compounds in black cohosh have been found to decrease blood pressure by dilating vessels making black cohosh useful for treating high blood pressure.
Most black cohosh supplements are made from encapsulated dried root. Be sure to purchase a product that has been standardized to the triterpene content. This is an assurance that the product contains black cohosh and has some active properties. For menopausal relief, the dosage used in studies has been 20-40MG tablets of standardized extract twice a day. Anything above 900MG a day is considered an over dose. It is recommended not to take black cohosh for more than 6 months at a time.
Black cohosh may cause miscarriage when taken during the first trimester of pregnancy. It is potentially toxic to infants and should not be used by breastfeeding mothers. Individuals with estrogen sensitive tumours or a history of such tumours should not use black cohosh. Theoretically black cohosh may alter levels of oral contraceptives, hormone replacement medication or blood thinners but this has not been seen clinically. Do not use black cohosh if you are allergic to aspirin.
