Top 5 Herbs for Women's Health

Hormones play a significant role in women’s health. When they become imbalanced, symptoms such as mood swings, adrenal fatigue, irregular cycles, and more occur. When this happens, we like to support the body with herbs (or like we jokingly call them, God's Weeds). We chose to highlight these five herbs because of the impact they’ve made in many of our clients over the years. Take a look at the top five herbs for women!

Schisandra Berry

The number one herb used in Chinese medicine and around the world for women’s health and beauty is schisandra berry. Use this super berry to purify the skin, cleanse the liver, and balance hormones.

Wild Yam

A hormonal imbalance can create all types of negative effects from mood swings to painful periods. This powerful herb helps offset and balance hormone levels naturally. Wild yam has been used as a natural alternative to estrogen therapy and PMS symptoms.

Siberian Ginseng (Eleuthero)

This premier herbal tonic is the be-all of stress adapters for both women and men. It helps the body respond to stress, boost energy, and support the adrenals. Did we mention, it also boosts your immune system? Try it in powder form by mixing it in juice, tea, or smoothies.
