Benefits and market opportunity
Genopause® is a blend of four Ayurvedic herbal extracts, including Tinospora cordifolia, Asparagus racemosus, Withania somnifera and Commiphora mukul.
Menopause is a natural component of the female life cycle. It results when the ovaries no longer release eggs and decrease production of the sex hormones estrogen, progesterone and, to a lesser extent, androgen. Menopausal symptoms can last between 1-10 years and span a wide range, including:
- Hot flashes
- Mood changes
- Sleep disturbances
Genopause is a non-estrogenic formula consisting of four herbs, each with a long history of use as dietary ingredients. Together, these herbal extracts help diminish a range of normal symptoms associated with menopause.*
Tinospora cordifolia (Guduchi): This plant supports a healthy immune system.*
Asparagus racemosus: Known for its support of stress reduction, this plant helps to balance the body during menopause.*
Withania somnifera (Ashwagandha): This extract is rich in flavonoids that provide support for relaxation, mood and sleep.* It also has adaptogenic properties.*
Commiphora mukul: This extract is best known for helping to maintain cholesterol and triglyceride levels that are already within the normal range.*
Add Genopause to product formulations designed to support menopausal symptoms.*
