About 85% of women between the ages of 45 to 55 get it. Thankfully it is not a disease, although its symptoms are still distressing. They call it menopause. They can’t really get away with it. There is no vaccine for it neither is there an absolute cure. Nevertheless, health experts find away to get relief for its agonizing symptoms caused by the significant decline of estrogen. This decrease in hormone affects the body in many ways like: decline (or increase) of sex drive, dryness of the vagina, hot flashes, increase in heartbeat, nausea, headaches and profuse sweating even when it is not warm. Women turned to hormonal therapy to get the levels back while others took on natural methods such as a healthy lifestyle and remedies like black cohosh for hot flashes issues.
To give justice to their clamor, let me tell you what a hot flash is like: it is sudden swell of hotness all over your face and sometimes your entire upper body like your chest, your armpits and even your ears. The heartbeat increases for no reason; at times before a hot flash or during one. They would be sweating profusely and overwrought by anxiety and weakness. They can’t breathe properly plus they may have headaches, dizziness and/ or nausea. To top it off, one would feel chills while being drenched in sweat at the same time. Imagine that happening while driving or during a very important meeting or how about babysitting your kids? It doesn’t come announced and it can happen anytime and anywhere.
Thankfully, Mother Nature also has the cure for something as natural as menopause. One particular herb that has been used by women of old is black cohosh for hot flashes help. This wisdom has been passed on to the modern world from teas to solid extracts in the form of capsules and pills to liquid extracts. This herb has helped women not only with menopause but also those with irregular menstrual cycles and premenstrual syndromes. This has also been used to induce labor for those pregnant women having trouble delivering their babies.
Just because it is a natural remedy, it doesn’t mean we can take it liberally. It is always wise to ask a health expert about treatments with black cohosh. You have to consider safe dosage and the time table for allowable treatment that is fit for you.
As said earlier, a healthy lifestyle contributes to hot flashes relief, such as:
• Exercising regularly
• Eating a healthy diet of soy-rich and low-fat foods
• Avoiding triggers that lead to hot flashes like caffeine, alcohol, smoking, saunas, and stress
• Keeping cool all the time
• Having an iced drink or simply ice and a fan nearby
• If you do not have to use warm clothing, stick to cotton garments instead
Menopause is a part of the natural cycle of womanhood. If someone can do away with motherhood, no woman escapes menstruation and menopause. Dietary supplements such as Menozac contain black cohosh for hot flashes relief. See a health expert about it instead of self medicating.
