Bionutri Estrolignan Plus is a food supplement that provides a rich source of dietary lignans from linseed along with a combination of Omega 3 Fish Oil from sardine and anchovy, Limonene and Vitamin D.

Lignans are widely distributed in plant material and form a normal part of our everyday diet, but flax (linseed) is by far the best known food source, providing around 100 times more than any other plant material. The primary Lignan found in flax is SDG. Lignans are phytoestrogens whose nutritional role has become increasingly recognised

Each capsule of Bionutri Estrolignan Plus provides as much SDG as around 2 tablespoons of whole Linseeds €“ however, unless linseeds are ground or milled, only a small proportion of their Lignans can be digested – Linseed Oil does not contain Lignans.

Estrolignan Plus is a twin-pack in which the micronutrients are provided in a separate capsule to the Omega 3 (Fish Oil) capsules. Both capsules may be taken at the same time, but encapsulating them separately helps to enhance the integrity of the micronutrients, particularly the Lignans.

Higher Nature Black Cohosh Menopause Relief

Used to relieve hot flushes, night sweats, mood swings, nervous irritability & restlessness

Black Cohosh Menopause Relief is a traditional herbal medicinal product used for the relief of symptoms of the menopause, such as hot flushes, night sweats, and temporary changes in mood, such as nervous irritability and restlessness, exclusively based upon long-standing use as a traditional remedy.

The menopause is caused by the body not producing the hormone oestrogen, which can result in women experiencing both physical and emotional symptoms. A woman is said to have reached the menopause once she has not had a period for one year, although symptoms are often experienced long after this time.

Black Cohosh belongs to the buttercup family and has traditional use as a medicine by the indigenous American Indians, who called it €˜squawroot€™. It became an ornamental plant in English gardens as early as the 1730s. With its extraordinarily tall white flowers, Black Cohosh makes an impressive border plant.

Recommended Dose

For Oral Use. For women experiencing menopausal symptoms take one tablet daily. Tablets should be taken at the same time of day. Tablets should be swallowed whole with water or other liquid.

Nutri’s Folic acid is one of the water soluble vitamins often found in a B complex. Folic acid  is necessary for cell replication and growth,  DNA and RNA synthesis, and is therefore critical for cell division and differentiation and for protein synthesis. Folic acid is especially important for foetal development in the first 8-12 weeks of pregnancy.

Folic acid is also essential for all methylation reactions neurotransmitter synthesis, nerve myelination, protein synthesis, metabolic clearing and carnitine synthesis.
