FemPlex for Women's Health
One of the biggest problems with supplements for female health is that they offer more chemicals to an already over-chemicalized population. Not so with FemPlex, which is made of foods and contain no artificial ingredients.
This month we came out with a new and improved version of FemPlex based on the most up-to-date FOOD SCIENCE RESEARCH. Basically the formula is the same as it always has been, but a major boost now comes from brewer's yeast, which offers a high content of vitamin B complex. This is important because women commonly suffer from fatigue, irritability, mood swings, anxiety and stress-related symptoms. Brewer's yeast is a good source of protein, calcium, phosphorus, iron, sodium, potassium, vitamin B1, vitamin B2, and vitamin B3.
Our research shows that other ingredients in FemPlex continue to perform well in studies, including chasteberry, squaw vine, dong quai and black cohosh. Of course, alfalfa is a staple that offers an excellent source of chlorophyll plus vitamins and (alkaline) minerals.
Vitex does not act as a phytoestrogen (plant estrogen), a term commonly associated with balancing the female reproductive system. Vitex works through another important chemical pathway, the hypothalamus-pituitary axis, to balance female hormones. Vitex increases luteinizing hormone production while inhibiting the release of follicle stimulating hormone, leading to an indirect increase in progesterone and a normalization of prolactin levels. The combination of actions produced by vitex seems to restore the estrogen/progesterone balance. FemPlex may be used with female patients from puberty through menopause.
