[Health Benefits]
Black cohosh is both safe and effective for symptomatic relief of menopausal hot flashes. As a woman approaches menopause, the signals between the ovaries and pituitary gland diminish, slowing down estrogen production and increasing luteinizing hormone (LH) secretions. Hot flashes can result from these hormonal changes.
More recent animal studies and a clinical trial have found no estrogen activity for black cohosh extracts. Black cohosh is best reserved for the symptomatic treatment of hot flashes associated with menopause and is not thought to be a substitute for hormone replacement therapy in menopausal and postmenopausal women.
The recommended amount is 1 mg of deoxyactein per 20 mg of extract. Twice per day.
