 (ARA) - Hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, fatigue and sheer frustration -- do these sound familiar? Menopause is a natural transition that is unique for each woman, but for many it comes with a lot of unpleasant symptoms that can disrupt the normal flow of daily life.
Hormone replacement therapy (HRT), estrogen replacement therapy (ERT), and prescription drugs can be effective in treating symptoms of menopause, but many can have negative side effects.
More women are choosing to use natural alternatives that can be as effective as other prescription treatments. Soy is fast becoming the leading alternative for women with menopause symptoms.
Why soy?
Soy contains isoflavones, which are phytoestrogens, or plant estrogens. Eating soy and integrating a soy supplement into your diet can help to relieve menopausal symptoms, particularly hot flashes.
A recent clinical trial at the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC), a prominent teaching hospital of Harvard Medical School, found that 52 percent of women who took a soy extract called AglyMax had reduced hot flashes over a 12-week period.
AglyMax is a unique soy germ extract that contains isoflavones in their most usable form called aglycones. A special fermentation process maximizes the benefits obtainable from the soy bean and also produces healthy antioxidants.
Effisoy is a supplement that's made with AglyMax and works to reduce the symptoms of menopause and enhance daily quality of life. Effisoy is unlike any other soy supplement available today and has helped many women even when other soy products and approaches have failed.
"What we are trying to find is a safe and effective alternative to hormone therapy," says senior author investigator George Blackburn, a doctor at the Department of Medicine, Obstetrics and Gynecology, and Surgery at BIDMC. "Our study found that patients who consumed the soy supplement showed a reduction in the number of hot flashes."
Whether you are one of the millions of women looking for natural relief from hormone related symptoms or you're searching for a safe, nutritional way to stay balanced and keep feeling your best, you owe it to yourself to give Effisoy a try.
