Menopause

"There are many experimental and clinical studies that say that milk thistle is an effective therapy for a variety of liver diseases, including fatty liver, acute and chronic hepatitis, advanced cirrhosis and damage from drugs and exposure to toxic chemicals.

In 1981, a German researcher, Dr G. Vogel of the University of Munich conducted a study of 49 patients throughout Europe, who had been poisoned by a deadly mushroom, amanita mushroom, also called the death cap. All of them were given injections of milk thistle’s active chemicals daily in addition to their regular treatments. And the results ranged from amazing to spectacular. Ordinarily the death rate from these mushrooms would be 30-40%, but the milk thistle reduced the death rate to zero!

During the menopause, the liver is overtaxed. It tries to cope with surges of hormones and trying to adapt to the transition that the body is going through. This is the reason why so many women become oversensitive to chemicals and food. So it is important to reduce the toxic overload by trying to eat sensibly. You should include lots of veggies and organic in your diet. But it’s also a great idea to supplement with milk thistle to help the liver even more."

"Red Clover Tea is amazing and there are a number of studies to support red clover blossom as an effective estrogen replacement."
