PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Fem Adapt is AOR’s premium menopause formula that is especially useful for hot flashes. Formulated with natural substances proven to help relieve the symptoms associated with menopause, it contains flax lignans, soy isoflavones, black cohosh, and a standardized hops extract that collectively can reduce the severity and frequency of hot flashes and other menopausal concerns.
AOR’s Fem Adapt formula also provides protection against cardiovascular complications, osteoporosis, and other health risks that increase after menopause. This is due to the mild estrogenic activity of the phytoestrogens in the product that can serve as natural hormone replacement therapy. Additionally, some of the ingredients in Fem Adapt have been used in herbal medicine to help relieve premenstrual symptoms, including abdominal cramps, muscle and joint pain, nerve pain like sciatica, and nervous tension.
AOR ADVANTAGE
AOR’s Fem Adapt includes standardized clinically tested natural ingredients that have been demonstrated to safely and effectively alleviate some of the uncomfortable and undesirable symptoms associated with menopause. There is also some evidence to suggest that phytoestrogens and those from soy, in particular, can help alleviate the symptoms of PMS including menstrual migraines.
