When women enter menopause, they often face many challenges to their physical and mental health. In a rigorous, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study of 72 postmenopausal women aged 45-60 years who were given 3 grams of red ginseng extract daily for 12 weeks, the red ginseng group significantly reduced menopausal index (KI) scores, including physical, psychological, and urogenital discomfort, compared with the placebo group. At the same time, markers of cardiovascular health were also improved, such as decreased levels of total cholesterol (TC) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C), decreased highly sensitive C-reactive protein, and decreased carotid intima-media thickness, further reducing cardiovascular risk factors.

It regulates the autonomic nervous system and the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, balances neuroendocrine, protects neurons, and reduces oxidative stress. At the same time, it reduces the reuptake of inhibitory neurotransmitters such as 5-hydroxytryptamine and increases its transmission efficiency, thus playing the role of anti-depression and anti-anxiety. In addition, saffron extract can also increase estrogen levels and activity, fundamentally improving endocrine disorders caused by hormone levels fluctuations.


Pueraria extract: the rebel of years
