What is Vitals Women’s Formula Pro 45+?

After the phase of life in which the female body is constantly subject to the female hormonal cycle, a period starts from about the 45th year of life in which a new balance is created in the hormonal system of the woman.

We have chosen herbs of the highest possible quality and purity, and with the strongest possible scientific substantiation. A unique product in this area that can help women aged 45 and over to remain mentally and physically in balance during the menopause.

Maca

Maca is a root vegetable that occurs naturally at high altitudes in the Andes Mountains in Peru. Maca has traditionally been used by Peruvians for its beneficial effects on both physical and mental health. Maca is a so-called 'adaptogen'. Adaptogens are herbs that support the body in dealing with various physical and mental challenges and in this way help to stay in balance. Human studies also show that maca has a beneficial effect on the body's hormones during the menopause, without itself having a phytoestrogenic effect. What many people do not know is that there are various types of maca, each with a different phytochemical composition and a different activity. The different types of maca are distinguished by the color of the root tuber (including yellow, red and black). Black maca is seen as a typical 'male maca' due to the special ratio of the characteristic components of maca (such as glucosinolates and lignans). While yellow maca (with other glucosinolates) is more likely to be a 'women's maca'. Maca-GO® is a specially developed maca concentrate, which consists of a special ratio of maca species that are most effective in supporting the hormone balance during the menopause. Maca-GO® is manufactured by Natural Health Ingredients according to a unique production process. The unsprayed maca is treated with care so that the naturally present phytonutrients are preserved. An additional production step also ensures that Maca-GO® can be optimally absorbed as a supplement. Because of the special ratio of the characteristic components of maca (such as glucosinolates and lignans), seen as a typical 'men's maca'. While yellow maca (with other glucosinolates) is more likely to be a 'women's maca'.

Black Cohosh

The most commonly used herb for menopausal symptoms is black cohosh. This should therefore not be missing in Women's Formula Pro 45+. Human studies show that black cohosh can support hot flashes, mood swings and irritable feelings. Good quality and standardization are of great importance here. The mechanisms of action of black cohosh are not yet fully understood, but black cohosh does not contain phytoestrogens, as previously believed. The black cohosh extract used in Women's Formula Pro 45+ is standardized at 2.5% triterpene glycosides, active ingredients from the rhizome of the plant.

Ashwagandha

Like maca, ashwagandha is a herb with a powerful adaptogenic effect that can help maintain mental and physical balance. The active substances in the root extract support the functioning of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and have a relaxing and soothing effect. Ashwagandha is therefore often used in stressful situations and to support emotional stability. Women's formula Pro 45+ contains a generous dose of the well-known ashwagandha extract KSM-66® from producer Ixoreal. Fourteen years of research preceded the development of this special extract. KSM-66® uses a specially developed extraction method (without toxic or environmentally harmful solvents). A broad spectrum extract is obtained from this in which the natural properties of the original plant have been preserved. Ixoreal also consciously chooses to use only unsprayed ashwagandha plants. In short, KSM-66® not only has the best quality, but is also the most researched and best-researched ashwagandha extract in the world.

Pine Bark

Pycnogenol® is a patented and standardized extract from the bark (the outer part of the bark) of the maritime pine (Pinus pinaster), a pine species that grows on the southwest coast of France. Pines are also traditionally referred to as pine trees. The extract is rich in various types of polyphenols including oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPCs) and organic acids (including ferulic acid, cinnamic acid and caffeic acid). There is already a long tradition in the use of Pycnogenol®. It has been used as a dietary supplement for about 40 years. It is now one of the best researched nutrients in the world with more than 300 scientific publications. Pycnogenol® has a strong antioxidant effect and can help protect various body cells against free radicals.
