BLACK COHOSH PRODUCTS
Black Cohosh has a history as a folk medicine for women's health conditions such as relieving menstrual cramps and easing menopausal complaints. Black cohosh (derived from species of buttercup) is effective against hot flashes and night sweats and can also lower the blood pressure, acting to the hypothalamus and pituitary gland. Black cohosh is also a traditional remedy for treating arthritis, muscle pain, sore throat, cough and indigestion. The juice of the plant has been used as an insect repellent and was made into a salve and applied to snake bites. Today, black cohosh is used primarily as a nutritional supplement for hot flashes, mood swings, night sweats, vaginal dryness and other symptoms that can ocur during menopause as well as for menstrual cramps and bloating. The parts of the plant used medicinally are the fresh or dried roots and rhizomes (underground stems). The active compound is believed to be 26-deoxyactein. Black cohosh can be taken in several forms, including crude plant, dried root, or rhizome (300-2,000 mg per day), or as a solid, dry powdered extract (250 mg three times per day). Standardized extracts of the herb are available, though they have primarily been researched for use with menopausal women suffering from hot flashes. The recommended amount is 20-40 mg twice per day. The best researched form provides 1 mg of deoxyactein per 20 mg of extract. Tinctures can are also used (2-4 ml three times per day). The Commission E Monograph recommends black cohosh be taken for up to six months, and then discontinued. Black cohosh should not be used during pregnancy.

Note: There is a difference between Ceylon and Cassia cinnamon. In some recent studies in Europe, cinnamon derived from the Cassia plant contains a toxic compound known as Coumarin. This compound may carry a theoretical risk of causing liver and kidney damage in a small number of sensitive people who consume large amounts of cinnamon. The powdered cinnamon often sold as being true cinnamon in our supermarkets is typically derived from the Cassia plant. It is important to avoid high doses of it. Since cinnamon has an anti-clotting effect on the blood, caution should be exercised when it is used in combination with other blood-thinning products such as aspirin. Large quantities of cinnamon should be avoided during pregnancy due to the possibility of adverse effects on the uterus. Since cinnamon has been used as a sugar substitute in beverages, special caution should be taken. People who are taking medications for controlling blood sugar levels or blood thinners should consult with their health care provider before using cinnamon as a regular supplement.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CINNAMON & CASSIA
Although related, cinnamon and cassia are not obtained the same plant. They should be treated as separate foods, both from a nutritional and a health standpoint. Scientifically speaking, there is only one true cinnamon, which is most commonly called Ceylon cinnamon, and comes from the plant Cinnamomum zeylanicum. An alternative scientific name for Ceylon cinnamon is Cinnamomum verum, which simply translates as true cinnamon.
The term cassia never refers to Ceylon cinnamon but rather to other species of cinnamon, including Cinnamomum cassia (alternatively called Cinnamomum aromaticaum) and Cinnamomum burmannii. While most simply referred to as cassia, you will often find Cinnamomum aromaticaum being referred to as Chinese cinnamon or Saigon cinnamon, and you will find Cinnamomum burmannii being called Java cinnamon or Padang cassia.
Ceylon cinnamon is typically more expensive than any of the cassia versions, and it is also the cinnamon more closely associated with potential health benefits involving blood sugar regulation. However, since both forms belong not only to the same family of plants (Lauraceae, the laurel family) but also to the same genus (Cinnamomum). They share many characteristics, and in some studies on rats and mice, the cassia cinnamons have shown blood sugar regulating ability as well.
What true cinnamon and cassia do not have in common is their coumarin content. Coumarins are naturally occurring plant components that can have strong anticoagulant properties. Because our blood needs to maintain its ability to coagulate in times of injury, excessive intake of coumarins over a prolonged period of time can pose health risks. While the level of naturally occurring coumarins in Ceylon cinnamon appears to be very small and lower than the amount that could cause health risks, the level of naturally occurring coumarins in the cassia cinnamons appears to be higher and may pose a risk to some individuals if consumed in substantial amounts on a regular basis. For this reason, organizations like the Federal Institute for Risk Assessment in Berlin, Germany have recommended that large amounts of the cassia cinnamons be avoided.
Unfortunately, there is no way to tell the difference between cinnamon powders that have been made from Ceylon/true cinnamon versus the cassia cinnamons. If you are buying cinnamon powder to use in a recipe, we recommend purchasing a cinnamon product that identifies the source of its cinnamon or calling the manufacturer to obtain this information.
In the case of stick cinnamon, however, there is one feature of the sticks you might want to look for in order to determine whether your cinnamon is true cinnamon or cassia cinnamon. That feature involves the texture of the sticks when you look downward at a stick so that you can see the end. When cinnamon sticks are rolled from the thick bark of the cassia plants, they look exactly as described-a one-piece, thick bark layer that does not show multiple layers of any kind. In the case of Ceylon cinnamon sticks (true cinnamon), since the plant bark is thinner, you may be able to see multiple layers of a thinner bark. That thinner layering of bark is one indication that your cinnamon sticks are made from true cinnamon. After finding true cinnamon sticks, of course, you can use a coffee grinder or a mortar and pestle to grind the sticks up into a powder.
When used in ordinary seasoning amounts occasionally in the diet, it is unlikely that you will face added health risks from the cassia cinnamons. We do not see a reason to avoid the cassia forms of this spice when consumed on this limited basis. However, if you are an avid cinnamon lover and likely to consume large amounts of cinnamon, we recommend Ceylon cinnamon (true cinnamon) as your best choice. Regardless of your Ceylon versus cassia decision, we always encourage you to purchase organic cinnamon, along with organic versions of all spices and seasonings.

LEVELS OF COUMARIN IN CASSIA CINNAMON VARY GREATLY EVEN IN BARK FROM THE SAME TREE
ScienceDaily (Nov. 3, 2010) — A "huge" variation exists in the amounts of coumarin in bark samples of cassia cinnamon from trees growing in Indonesia, scientists are reporting in a new study. That natural ingredient in the spice may carry a theoretical risk of causing liver damage in a small number of sensitive people who consume large amounts of cinnamon.
The report appears in ACS' bi-weekly Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry.
Friederike Woehrlin and colleagues note that cinnamon is the second most popular spice, next to black pepper, in the United States and Europe. Cinnamon, which comes from the bark of trees, is sold as solid sticks and powder with the country of origin rarely declared on the package label. There are two main types: Ceylon cinnamon (also known as "true" cinnamon) and cassia cinnamon. Ceylon grows in Sri Lanka (formerly Ceylon), the Seychelles, and Madagascar. Cassia generally comes from China and Indonesia. Both types can contain coumarin, a natural flavoring found in plants. Studies have linked high coumarin intake to liver damage in a small number of sensitive people.
The scientists analyzed 91 cinnamon samples purchased from stores in Germany. They found that coumarin levels varied widely among different bark samples of Cassia cinnamon. Therefore they analyzed cassia bark samples of five trees received directly from Indonesia and found a huge variation even among samples collected from a single tree. The study confirmed that cassia cinnamon has the highest levels of coumarin, while Ceylon had the lowest levels. On average, cassia cinnamon powder contained up to 63 times more coumarin than Ceylon cinnamon powder and cassia cinnamon sticks contained 18 times more coumarin than Ceylon sticks. "Further research is necessary to identify factors influencing the coumarin levels in cassia cinnamon and to possibly allow the harvesting of cassia cinnamon with low coumarin levels in the future," the report notes.
Health officials say it is almost impossible for consumers to distinguish between Ceylon and cassia in cinnamon powder. Cinnamon sticks, however, do look different. Cassia cinnamon sticks consist of a thick layer of rolled bark, while Ceylon cinnamon sticks have thin layers of bark rolled up into a stick.

OMEGA-3 FATTY ACID PRODUCTS
Flax Seed is a good source of omega-3 essential fatty acids, important for health and wellness. Flaxseed is also used in herbal medicine for the premenstrual syndrome. Diets low in omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA) found in cold water fish have been associated with menstrual pain. Supplementation with fish oil, a good source of omega-3 fatty acids, can lead to a drop in menstrual symptoms. Hot flashes, the most common menopause symptom, are handled with the flaxseed. Omega-3 fatty acids and lignans act as phytoestrogens. Fish oil that provided 1,080 mg of EPA and 720 mg of DHA per day for achieves this result. The same amount of EPA and DHA plus 7.5 mcg per day of vitamin B-12 can lead to a greater decrease in menstrual symptoms, but taking only fish oil does not obtain as much relief. Six grams of fish oil per day provides the approximate levels of EPA and DHA used in relieving menstrual symptoms. Essential fatty acids (Omega-3 and Omega-6 oils) can be found in flaxseed, evening primrose, or borage oil. These will reduce inflammation and/or support hormone production.

LADY'S MANTLE PRODUCTS
Lady's Mantle. The astringent properties in Lady's Mantle help reduce bleeding, particularly in cases of excessive menstrual bleeding and in menopause. It can also stimulate contractions during
childbirth. This herb acts as a hormone balancer which means it can help regulate periods. Lady's Mantle has been used as a mild painkiller and is used in treating diarrhea and gastroenteritis. Externally, this herb is used as a douche for vaginal discharge, irritation, and infection. In lotions, Lady's Mantle works well for soothing rashes, eczema, cuts, wounds, sores, and insect bites. This herb is also used as a mouthwash or gargle for bleeding gums, mouth ulcers, and sore throats. Lady's Mantle comes in various forms and is an ingredient in many products. To regulate the menstrual cycle or reduce a heavy flow, take 200 ml (8 fl oz) as an infusion, 3 times a day.

LICORICE PRODUCTS
Licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra) cleanses the colon and promotes adrenal gland function. Has estrogen- and progesterone-like effects. Beneficial for allergic disorders, asthma, chronic fatigue, depression, emphysema, fever, herpesvirus infection, hypoglycemia, and inflammatory bowel disorders. Whole licorice root can cause aldosterone-like activities such as fluid retention, high blood pressure, and potassium loss when taken at dosages exceeding 3 g daily for more than 6 weeks. Licorice in the DGL form (deglycyrrhizinated licorice) does not cause aldosterone-like activities; however, it is not clear DGL provides the same benefits as whole licorice. One possible side effect for men is reduced testostorone levels. Safety in young children, pregnant or nursing women, or those with severe liver or kidney disease is not known at this time. People taking Digitalis, Thiazide or loop diuretics, corticosteroid treatments could experience negative side effects. People using aspirin or other anti-inflammatory drugs while taking Licorice regularly might lower the risk of ulcers.

RED CLOVER PRODUCTS
Red Clover. Plant estrogens, like those found in red clover isoflavone extract, although weaker than the estrogens given by prescription, are present in body storage 1000 times as abundant than
the body's natural estrogens. Red clover extract has passed medical studies and shown to be helpful in menopausal symptoms, but strangely enough has not been shown to raise the body's natural estrogen supply (of estradiol). This is important when worrying about breast cancer patients who should not be taking estrogen. In fact, it has been shown that women with breast cancer excrete lower than normal amounts of isoflavone, so there is a logic to increasing the supply of isoflavone. This is being studied as possibly beneficial for these women, acting more like the selective estrogens (e.g., Tamoxifen) given women to decrease the risk of breast cancer.

WOUNDWORT (SELFHEAL; ALL HEAL) PRODUCTS
Woundwort, also known as Selfheal or All Heal (Prunella Vulgaris) uses the leaves and young shoots of the plant to stop bleeding. It has been used as a styptic that has been used internally in Western medicine to stop hemorrhage, internal bleeding ulcers and excessive menstruation, and its gentle
astringency also helps to control chronic and sudden diarrhea (although it is recommended that this application be used under the aegis of a health care provider). For external treatment, those astringent qualities may be applied to relieve hemorrhoids and decrease the bleeding of wounds and cuts.
A poultice of fresh leaves and shoots can be used as emergency first aid on clean cuts. Woundwort tea helps heal internal wounds, and the tea can also be used in a poultice for external wounds, bruises, ulcers, and sores. The tea is used as a gargle for sore throat, mouthwash for bleeding gums, canker sores, and thrush. Woundwort tea can also be used to help treat hemorrhage, diarrhea, convulsions, seizures, epilepsy, hepatitis, jaundice, headache, high blood pressure, fluid retention, edema, and fevers. The Chinese believe the tea is useful in treating liver and kidney conditions, blood circulation, conjunctivitis, and boils. To use as an infusion, take 1 ounce of Woundwort in 1 pint of boiling water. Let it cool slightly. Drink 1 wineglassful several times a day. To use an extract, soak 1 teaspoon of this plant in 1 pint brandy or whiskey for a few days. Take 1 tablespoon a day, or as needed. For other formulations, or for other products that contain Woundwort, read and follow product label directions. It is best to consult your health care provider before using Woundwort if you have abnormal uterine bleeding, bleeding gums, or blood in the urine.
