Postmenopausal Support
At Symphony Natural Health, we believe that menopause is defined as the declining function of the endocrine system based on a woman’s age, genetics, diet, lifestyle, environment, emotional state, and many other factors. For that reason, we break down our protocol into three parts: foundational functional systems (part I and II), which are key for all women, and symptom relief (part III), which is used on a patient-by-patient basis. All of these are combined with physical, mental, emotional, and other whole-health support.
Part I – Foundational endocrine support
FemmenessencePRO POST (Symphony Natural Health)
Dosing: Take 2 capsules, twice daily, away from meals. First dose in the a.m. before breakfast. Second dose early in the afternoon or before afternoon energy low. Not to be taken beyond late afternoon as may interfere with sleep.
FemmenessencePRO POST contains Maca-GO®, a concentrated, highly bioavailable, proprietary formulation of Lepidium peruvianum (maca) phenotypes specifically formulated for women to support the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid-adrenal-ovarian (HPTAO) axis.*
Part II – Foundational nutrition and hydration support
Personalized nutrition support
In addition to the foundational nutrition products listed here, there may be other nutrients required for an individual based on personalized characteristics, such as their gene variants, dietary pattern, physical activity level, environment, and toxin load, to name a few.
