Balance Hormones Naturally With Herbal Tinctures

Balancing your hormones may seem like an uphill battle, especially for women going through menopause and men who have prostate concerns.  But with the use of all natural and holistic herbal tinctures, your hormone troubles could be a thing of the past!

If you are looking for an easy way to help balance out your hormones more naturally, why not reap the benefits of medicinal plants, and take a look at what herbal tinctures might be able to do for you? While natural remedies have always widely been in use, their popularity is increasing as people seek safer, more gentle alternatives to pharmaceutical medications.

Tinctures are typically made by soaking herbs in alcohol for several weeks to extract the active components (phytochemicals) of the plants. After a few weeks, the herbal mixture is strained and the herb parts are removed, leaving behind the concentrated liquid. Alcohol is used because it is an excellent food-grade solvent and can extract herbal constituents (such as resins and alkaloids) that are poorly soluble in water. Another benefit of using alcohol as a solvent is that it is an excellent preservative that retains the freshness and potency of medicinal plants and greatly increases the shelf life of the tincture. Don’t worry – you won’t get intoxicated from the alcohol in tinctures.

Fresh or dried leaves, roots, bark, flowers, and berries may be used to make tinctures. They can be made from a single plant or a combination of plants. –Ready Nutrition

Herbal tinctures are highly effective at helping support sleeping issues and stress and anxiety, and their use is growing in popularity, especially for both men and women who dislike the chemical-laced toxic versions offered up by the pharmaceutical industry.

MEN’S HEALTH

Men have unique concerns that women do not, so it only makes sense that they use a unique herbal blend for their specific needs. Ready Nutrition’s Prostate Power Organic Herbal Tincture is made using a combination of plant-derived medicines that support prostate and urinary tract health. The Prostate Power herbal tincture contains the Saw Palmetto herb, which is well known as a supplement packed full of health benefits for men with hormonal imbalances. Promising research shows that saw palmetto may help increase testosterone levels, improve prostate health, reduce inflammation, prevent hair loss, and enhance urinary tract function. Some research even suggests that saw palmetto could support prostate health and may aid in preventing issues like BPH and prostate cancer. According to one test-tube study, saw palmetto berry extract was able to decrease the growth of prostate cancer cells.

Herbal tinctures made specifically for men’s health concerns are often overshadowed by women’s formulas.  However, Ready Nutrition took the specific need of men in mind when making their prostate blend specifically for those humans who have prostate glands! The tincture can help relieve difficult urination due to enlargement of the prostate gland caused by age-related conditions in healthy men. Because it Contains Uva Ursi, a natural antibiotic, the Prostate Power herbal tincture can help relieve difficulty urinating due to a urinary tract infection in men as well.

WOMEN’S HEALTH

Hormonal imbalances are a common complaint among women, especially those going through menopause, or those who have had hysterectomies. Ready Nutrition’s Woman’s Formula Organic Herbal Tincture is made using a combination of plant-derived medicines that gently relieve hot flashes, night sweats, irritability, periodic mood swings, and daytime fatigue. The main ingredient that will really support women’s health and hormones, is the black cohosh. The black cohosh herb is often used to treat perimenopause and menopause symptoms. In particular, these symptoms include hot flashes, moodiness, vaginal dryness, and excessive sweating.

Additionally, the Women’s Formula herbal tincture contains wild yam root. This herb has a slew of wondrous benefits! The bulb and roots of wild yams contain a chemical called diosgenin, which can influence the production of several useful hormones in human women, such as estrogen or dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA). Consuming wild yam may be a natural way of promoting these hormones in the body, which could have certain medical benefits and support overall hormonal health. Traditional medicine practitioners suggest using wild yam as an alternative to estrogen replacement therapy for treating symptoms of menopause. The theory is that wild yam may increase or stabilize estrogen levels in the body to help relieve a person’s symptoms.

Herbal tinctures are commonly made with the same plants as herbal teas, but tinctures are much stronger – a dropper of tincture is more potent than a cup of steeped tea. In fact, you can even add Ready Nutrition tinctures to tea if you’d like. Tinctures have a milder, more subtle effect than pharmaceutical drugs, so it is important to have realistic expectations if you are using them for a chronic condition. Some tinctures DO provide rapid relief of symptoms, but most do not offer a quick fix.

Trying an herbal tincture to help with hormonal imbalances for either gender could be incredibly helpful. If you’re looking for a holistic an natural approach to medicine, a tincture could offer you the benefits you’re looking for!

Be holistically healthy and well!
