Female Pack /

Every packet contains a combination of herbs, essential fatty acids, herbal diuretics and vitamins to prevent and reduce pre-menopausal, hormonal imbalances, especially PMS. Recommended dosage: 1 packet preferably with breakfast. If symptoms are sever take an additional packet with lunch. (If you take it late or with your evening meal, the diuretic property might disturb your sleep.)


For PMS, and other Pre-menopausal Hormonal Disturbances.

This is a combination of the best researched nutrients to manage the hormonal disturbance connected with PMS and with young women's menstrual irregularity.   

Every cellophane package contains the following:

Magnesium

Particularly important for women with low energy and stressful life conditions. Magnesium is always low in women suffering with PMS.  

Magnesium is one of the most important minerals in all physiological functions.  It assists the balance and distribution of other nutrients throughout the body, especially the essential fatty acid so important in all forms of hormonal imbalance. It optimizes bone metabolism and regulates blood pressure.  

The aspartate form of magnesium assures maximum utilization.

Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine)

Particularly low in women with PMS. It’s deficit causes irritability and water retention. 

B6 is necessary for a healthy nervous system and to maintain appropriate body water balance. 

Prescription drugs, especially oral contraceptives, depletes B6. Pyridoxine is therefore one of the most important B vitamins to keep a "healthy mind and a healthy body".

Juniper, Buchu, Uva-Ursi, Asparagus, Bear Berry & Cubeb 

Botanicals which are blended specifically to relieve water retention and prevent urinary infections. 

This special herbal blend is formulated with the best available extracts and offers a natural alternative to prescription diuretics.

Borage Oil 

One of the best sources of GLA, (gamma linoleic acid).  

GLA has been used for centuries to promote hormonal balance in women. Research shows Borage oil (GLA) to be essential for a healthy hormonal, nervous and cardiovascular system.

Zinc  

Another extremely important mineral for support of all bodily functions, especially the immune system, the skin, and the hair. 

Zinc is important in the metabolism of essential fatty acids (see GLA). Zinc is depleted by excessive usage of coffee, alcohol and chronic stress, so a vicious cycle is set in which young women who need it the most have it the least. 

Our combination contains the picolinate form, in which zinc is highly bio-available.

 Wild Yam 

A progesterone promoting natural substance. 

Low progesterone is one of the main reasons for PMS.   Wild Yam has been classified as one of the most important phyto-chemicals that promotes progesterone balance.

Agnus Castus (Vitex)

Also known as Chaste Berry, is famously known as the "woman’s herb". 

It is particularly important in restoring ovulation functions. Agnus Castus helps restore the brain luteinizing hormone responsible for proper ovulation. 

It has been used also for Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (POS) and infertility.

Ox Bile Extract

Provides digestion and absorption of  the Borage Oil in the Female Pack and of other essential fatty acids present  in the diet.
