Learn About Soy Products For Hot Flashes

By Deborah Castillo


As women go through the change of life, they often reach for hormone replacement therapy to help manage the symptoms of menopause. Women should know that there is another alternative for these frustrating symptoms. Soy Products For Hot Flashes are available and widely used. The supplements can be purchased without a prescription. Soy combined with herbal extracts, long used to regulate body temperature and mood swings, can help women get through this life transition.

The consumer should know that not all products are of the same quality. Read the label to see if certain herbs are included in the supplement. These include black cohosh and dong quai. Black cohosh has been used for various medicinal purposes for hundreds of years. The herb is not an estrogen replacement, but it appears to mimic estrogen in the body. The root of the dong quai plant has long been used to manage the symptoms that women experience while going through the change.

Soy also has phytoestrogens that help the production of estrogen in the body. Sometimes women add soy to their regular diet for all its health benefits, but also to help manage menopause. All phytoestrogens are significantly weaker than estrogen made by the body, but they mimic estrogen and can be effective in reducing hot flashes. Check with your doctor to be sure you do not have any health conditions that contraindicate adding soy products to your diet.

Vitex berry has been used to manage symptoms associated with premenstrual syndrome. It reduces tension associated with hormonal changes. During menopause reducing tension may effectively manage mood swings, which can be very troubling for a woman and the people around her.

Another plant extract that contains phytoestrogens is red clover. Some of the hormones used in HRT are derived from animals, unlike the phytoestrogens that contain plant estrogen. Red clover can help manage hot flashes, but it may also be effective in preventing bone loss if used when women are menopausal or perimenopausal.

The supplement purchased should come with a money back guarantee. Reputable manufacturers will offer 60 to 90 days guarantees. If the consumer is not pleased with the effects of the product, they can return the empty bottle and get a full refund. When a manufacturer stands behind their product it is an indication of high standards and that in most instances their customers are satisfied.

There are several quality brand names of soy based supplements for managing menopause. Estrovive is one of the top brands with eight herbal phytoestrogens. The ingredients include the five already noted, soy, red clover, dong quai, vitex berry and black cohosh. In addition to reducing the hot flashes, the supplement helps menopausal women reduce the risk of weight gain common during menopause.

Consumers should also look for a supplement that is manufactured in the United States. Even though herbal supplements in general are not FDA approved, American manufacturers will follow the FDA guidelines and regulations. U. S. Manufacturers are more likely to undergo inspections for safety and purity of their product. Finally, for the best possible quality make sure the product is made with herbal extracts, which are more effective than the cheaper herbal powders. Extracts ensure that the supplement has a higher concentration of the phytoestrogens.
