For Many Women:
The World of Menopause Management Just Got
COMPLICATED
More than 40 percent of all women in the US begin some form of
Hormone Replacement Therapy (HR T) during their menopause years. For decades
women have been told that HRT would protect their hearts, prevent osteoporosis
and preserve their youth. Now, after a federally funded five-year study of more
than 16,000 women, Federal health officials are telling women that the popular
HRT drug Prempro may do more harm than good. Researchers have conclusively
determined that hormones in Prempro raise the risk of heart attack, stoke, blood
clots and breast cancer.
Nature’s Sunshine Herb Specialists have preached the risks of HRT for years and
have utilized estrogen-alternative products. Studies have shown that plant
estrogens, such as isoflavones from soy, support the cardiovascular system when
consumed on a regular basis. Please take a moment and review these natural, safe
products that help alleviate hot flashes and insomnia, and also help preserve
bone strength, mental clarity and cardiovascular health.
THE NATURAL CHOICE IS SIMPLE AND SAFE!
Flash-Ease = Black Cohosh concentrate for menopausal discomforts
Black Cohosh supports glandular balance for physical and chemical changes that
occur during menopause. It can also be used for mild functional deficits after
full or partial hysterectomy, PMS and juvenile menstrual disorders. It acts on
the hypothalamus, pituitary gland and estrogen receptors. It is well tolerated
and suitable for long-term use with no contraindications.
Flash-Ease is a potent time-released version of black Cohosh, a popular herb
known for its ability to support the mature woman’s body as she encounters
glandular and physical changes. In fact, women have used it for decades to “keep
cool” during menopause. Flash Ease also contains dong quai, a noted Chinese
herb, to further support the female glandular system.
Black Cohosh = Female reproductive support
Black Cohosh has estrogenic effects. It stimulates uterine contractions, which
is an aid in childbirth and is used for arthritis, sedative, pain and in female
tonic formulas. It is effective for menopausal depression. It is a sedative for
the central nervous system. Used for congestive headaches from colds as
rheumatic or menstrual pain.
There have been testimonies that include shrinking of breast lumps within 2
months and return of vaginal lubrication.
Caution: large doses can induce a frontal headache.
Female Comfort = Female corrective for cramping and inflammation
Female Comfort is an herbal blend formulated to support proper balance of the
female reproductive and glandular systems.
This formula relieves congestive dysmenorrheal associated with PMS and water
retention. By relaxing smooth muscle tension, pain and cramping following the
onset of menses are reduced. Relieves nervous anxiety, morning sickness and hot
flashes.
It contains red raspberry leaves, dong quai root, ginger root, licorice root,
black Cohosh root, blessed thistle herb, marshmallow herb and queen of the
meadow herb.
FCS II
= Female corrective for excess uterine bleeding
The herbs in this “water reducing” formula shrink the uterus and restrict
peripheral blood flow to reduce bleeding, fibroid cysts, sore breast and water
retention.
By balancing hormone levels, a variety of “female problems” are relieved
including birth control side effects and hot flashes. It is also antiseptic and
helps reduce anxiety.
FCS-II contains red raspberry leaves, black Cohosh root, golden seal root,
blessed thistle herb, dong quai root, queen of the meadow herb, althaea root,
lobelia herb, ginger root and capsicum fruit. These herbs work together to
provide nutritional support to the uterus and its blood vessels.
Pro-G-Yam Cream is Wild yam root extract is an excellent source of
diosgenin, a precursor to progesterone. Diosgenin is said to reduce fatigue,
inflammation and stress. Pro-G-Yam contains real progesterone. Some other
products have only wild yam and/or synthetic progestin.
Progesterone is a hormone that is used by the body to balance estrogen. An
imbalance can result in water retention, breast pain, PMS, menstrual
irregularities, cravings, weight gain and bone loss.
The skin is an excellent way to gradually absorb the cream. The herbs are
selected to improve absorption through the skin.
Pro-G-Yam Cream is a fragrance free body cream containing wild yam and 500 mg.
of progesterone per ounce to help maintain proper hormone balance. They are
found in an herbal base designed for maximum efficacy and absorption.
C-X = Female Corrective for menopause
Used during menopause, to normalize hormones and the body’s response to stress.
Helps with cramps, hot flashes, nervous irritability, and low sexual interest.
Can be combined with Female Comfort herbal combination for more specific
results.
C-X contains black Cohosh root, licorice root, Siberian ginseng root,
sarsaparilla root, squaw vine herb, blessed thistle herb and false unicorn root.
WILD YAM & CHASTE TREE
=Help to balance and regulate hormone changes
These plants have chemicals similar to those the body uses to construct
hormones. Although the biologic actions are highly disputed, both herbs seem to
promote appropriate hormonal cycles. These two herbs work very well together to
regulate and balance rather than to control or force specific changes. This can
reduce PMS symptoms and menstrual irregularities.
Chase tree also acts on hormone system and can stimulate natural progesterone
production in the body. Wild Yam is also anti-spasmodic which helps relieve
cramping.

Flax Seed Oil = A rich vegetable source of omega-3 oils
You desperately need fat to live. We are partly made for fatty acids. Your cell
membranes are made of a back-to-back layer of fat molecules. Your body will use
whatever fat you give it. Some fats will contribute to the development of
long-term degenerative diseases. Other fats will promote cellular health.
Several scientific studies show that consumption of omega-3 essential fatty
acids (EFAs) leads to a substantially lower risk of death from coronary heart
disease. Flax Seed Oil is a rich source of these EFAs.
Vitamin E with/Selenium should be taken together because they are
co-dependent (used together) in the body. They are both antioxidants that
protect the body from the damaging effects of chemically active pollutants.
(Unprotected fats become rancid when they oxidize.)
Vitamin E helps to increase the fluidity of the blood and is necessary
for maintenance of the skeletal, cardiac and smooth muscle membranes. It also
helps maintain and increase the storage of vitamin A and iron in the body. Each
capsule contains 400 IU of vitamin E plus 25 mcg. of selenium.
Phyto-Soy
Soy is a safe way for menopausal women to enhance the immune, glandular and
reproductive systems. Phyto-Soy is an excellent source of the beneficial
isoflavonoids found in soy. Phyto-Soy contains 48 times more isoflavonoids than
comparable amounts of tofu, 25 times more than tempeh and 10 times more than
roasted soybeans.
Calcium Plus Vitamin D
Calcium Plus Vitamin D supplies nutrients required for both the
structural and nervous systems. With calcium and magnesium, plus trace minerals
needed by the body, NSP’s calcium helps strengthen and fortify bone tissue. This
formula also contains vitamin D, phosphorus and magnesium to maximize calcium
absorption.
Co-Q10-30
Co-Q10 provides essential support to the cardiovascular system. It
releases stored energy from fat to the heart muscle and acts as an antioxidant,
protecting against heart tissue degeneration. In older age, the body produces
less Co-Q10, making supplementation a great choice for cardiovascular support.
Contains 30 mg. of Co-Q10 per capsule.
Breast Assured
Next to skin cancer, breast cancer is the most common form of cancer among
American women. Breast Assured is a blend of herbs and nutrients that
support and protect women’s glandular health, especially the breast. It contains
flax meal, ellagic acid, genistein, maitake mushroom, Lutein beads and calcium
d-gluconate.
SynerProtein
SynerProtein is a perfect way to get the protein and nutritional a mature
woman needs. This balanced soy protein supplement drink provides essential amino
acids, vitamins and minerals. Each serving provides 20grams of soy protein plus
valuable isoflavones. Studies show that 25 grams of soy protein per day, as part
of a low-fat, low-cholesterol diet, may reduce the risk of heat disease.
