Vitakruid Femme Hormone Support including Maca & Saffron

Vitakruid Femme Hormone support including Maca & Saffron
Hormone support for women with no less than four herbs
About 85 percent of all women experience discomfort around menstruation, according to scientific research. 8 to 10 percent even report that the problems hinder daily life.

Fortunately, nature has an answer to this. Based on the most recent science, we have developed Femme. In this hormone formula for women, we combine the four main herbs that influence the most diverse discomforts surrounding your cycle!

Shatavari
Shatavari has been used in Ayurvedic medicine for hundreds of years. Its effects are attributed to the roots. It is a true women's herb that is often compared to Yin, the symbol of feminine energy.

Shatavari is the number one adaptogen in women's formulas. Adaptogens are often associated with stress management. Research shows that it affects the stress hormone cortisol.

In addition, we have incorporated a high-quality shatavari extract into our formula. Our extract is in a ratio of 10:1. This means that 250 mg of our extract is equivalent to 2.5 g of raw product. Therefore, we also label this extract as ten times more effective than shatavari in powder form!

Maca
The yellow maca originates from Peru, where the plant only grows under specific conditions. Nevertheless, this herb has increasingly been produced in China in recent years. These are usually unstandardized nutrients, which means we do not know how many active substances these maca variants contain. As a result, we generally cannot guarantee efficacy. The yellow Peruvian maca in Femme is from the patented Maca-GO® and is standardized to 0.3% glucosinolates for guaranteed optimal effect.

In addition, our yellow Peruvian maca is grown under optimal conditions, ensuring contamination levels that are well below the legal minimum.

Vitex agnus castus
Vitex agnus castus, also known as chaste tree, is found in the Mediterranean region, Central Asia, and North America.

Saffron (Affron®)
The high-quality saffron extract used in this formula is the patented Affron®. This nutrient developer only goes for 100% real saffron of the best quality, from controlled Spanish cultivation. Therefore, their saffron extract is standardized to 3.5% lepticrosalides, the active substances.

Improved absorption through the addition of piperine (Bioperine®)
Lastly, we have added the patented Bioperine® to the formula. This is an extract that consists of no less than 95-98% piperine, the main component of black pepper. Bioperine® is clinically tested, proving its high quality.
