Een complete formule voor tijdens de overgang

De overgang, een woord met een erg negatieve bijklank voor de vrouw van middelbare leeftijd. Feitelijk is de overgang het begin van een periode waarin de hormonen die de menstruatie reguleren (oestrogeen en progesteron) in mindere mate geproduceerd worden. Het lichaam van de vrouw gaat langzaam van vruchtbare- naar onvruchtbare staat. Dit proces kan gepaard gaan met een aantal onaangename verschijnselen zoals: opvliegers, slaapproblemen, gewichtstoename, overmatige transpiratie en een laag libido.

Andere formules tegen overgangsverschijnselen bevatten vaak slechts één, of hooguit twee werkzame bestanddelen. De combinatie van de werkzame stoffen: rode klaver, hop en angelica sinensis in combinatie met OPC, is nog niet eerder in een middel tegen menopauzale symptomen verenigd, een ware revolutie dus!
