Life-flo Progesta-Care Plus Ingredients
Progesta-Care Plus has phytoestrogens from red clover and saw palmetto. Phytoestrogens are plant molecules that exhibit estrogen-like behavior. They are not estrogens but are similar enough to bind to estrogen receptors throughout your body. They are needed to make up for reduced estrogen levels during menopausal years which would otherwise lead to menopause symptoms such as hot flashes, night flashes, and mood swings.
Progesta-Care’s main ingredient is progesterone. The progesterone used is USP grade and is pure.
It also has evening primrose oil and dong quai which have been reported to be beneficial for menopausal women. Damina may help with low libido.
Does Progesta-Care Plus Work?
As we have discussed, the main cause of menopause symptoms is the lack of estrogen and progesterone. Progesta-Care Plus addresses both of these causes, the lack of estrogen and progesterone.
Progesta-Care Plus has the phytoestrogenic ingredients saw palmetto and clover which help balance the progesterone-centric formulation.
Is Progesta-Care Plus Safe?
Traditional Hormonal Hormone Replacement Therapy relies on supplying the body with estrogen and/or progesterone. Progesta-Care uses natural herbs and herb derivatives. However, it could use more phytoestrogenic ingredients to help with hormone balance.
It uses clover to supply phytoestrogens and although there is some discussion about whether or not phytoestrogenic ingredients are safe, it is important to keep in mind that they are consumed by people worldwide, especially in Asian countries in the form of soybeans. The frequency of menopause symptoms is dramatically less in those countries.
Progesta-Care Plus contains black cohosh which some people are allergic to.
