Product Information

PCOS is complex, difficult to diagnose and is often missed completely. There is no single known cause and it is likely that PCOS is caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. A large proportion of women have excessive secretion of testosterone and abnormal activity of insulin; one of the main hormones involved in blood sugar balance. Many body systems are affected in PCOS resulting in several health symptoms which may include menstrual dysfunction, infertility, miscarriage, acne, oily skin, depression, obesity, hirsutism (excessive hair growth), hair loss, insulin resistance and increased risk of metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular disease, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and chronic low grade inflammation. MegaMag® Fem Balance has been reformulatedand vitamin B6 is now in the active form, pyridoxal-5-phosphate. Also carrageenan, cellulose gum & xanthan have been removed and replaced by guar gum. What does MegaMag® Fem Balance do? Glutathione – The body’s master antioxidant which protects against toxins and oxidative stress. Glutathione works well with alpha lipoic acid, green tea, milk thistle, turmeric and selenium

Increase Cruciferous Vegetables – Add plenty of broccoli and cauliflower into your diet to support oestrogen balance. Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) is the general umbrella term, describing a group of over 150 physical and psychological symptoms, which can occur between ovulation and the start of a woman’s menstrual period; often only subsiding a few days into the period. Rossignol AM & Bonnlander H. Prevalence and severity of the pre-menstrual syndrome: Effects of foods and beverages that are sweet or high in sugar content. Journal of Reproductive Medicine, vol 36, no 2, pp. 131-6 (1991).Within the group are ‘good’ and ‘bad’ oestrogens. Many people who suffer from endometriosis have too much oestrogen, often referred to as ‘oestrogen dominance’ and also a high ratio of bad: good oestrogen. Ward MW, Holimon TD. Calcium treatment for premenstrual syndrome. Ann Pharmacother. 1999 Dec; 33(12): 1356-8. I’ve used MegaMag® Fem Balance on and off for quite a few years now to help with monthly symptoms in particular, but also knowing that I’m keeping my magnesium stores topped up! When I don’t remember to take it on the 10-14 days prior to my ‘due-on’ day, I can really tell as my symptoms are much worse. When I doremember to take it, I more or less fly through the dreaded run-up to D-Day. I also like the fact it has myo-inositol included as this can be helpful in supporting blood sugars along with reproductive health, which is all positive!” Include liver supportive foods and drinks in your daily diet such as fresh parsley, artichoke, nettle tea and green tea

Calcium D-Glucarate is a natural compound that can help to support the safe detoxification and elimination of oestrogens from the body.

Deal With Stress - Identify any significant stressors in your life. Integrate stress reduction strategies into your weekly routine. Berberine – One of the most versatile herbal ingredients that has demonstrated beneficial impacts on blood sugar balance and insulin sensitivity Cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli and cauliflower contain a beneficial substance called di-indolylmethane (DIM), a natural plant compound that may help to support an improved balance of different types of oestrogens in the body. B vitamins - B vitamins are crucial for hormone balance, especially vitamin B6, which contributes to the regulation of hormonal activity and works closely with magnesium. Vitamin B6 is best supplemented as pyridoxal-5-phosphate, the active body ready form The good news is that diet and lifestyle changes can be of significant help to women affected by PCOS. Effective natural treatment protocols commonly centre around the nutritional support of these four key areas:

Glycinate form of magnesium which is gentle on digestion unlike other forms of magnesium such as citrate or oxide. Increase Fibre & Filtered Water – Regular elimination is important for oestrogen balance so make sure you get plenty of beneficial fibre in your diet in the form of fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, beans, lentils, oats and rye. Regularly drinking fresh filtered water supports this elimination process too. Quaranta S, Buscaglia MA, Meroni MG, Colombo E, Cella S. Pilot study of the efficacy and safety of a modified-release magnesium 250 mg tablet (Sincromag) for the treatment of premenstrual syndrome. Clin Drug Investig. 2007; 27(1): 51-8.Low vitamin E has been associated with high oestrogen levels. Restoring optimal levels of this nutrient is key for supporting healthy oestrogen balance. Whilst it may seem a step too far to completely eliminate these from your diet, aim to at least reduce your intake by half if you want to get on top of PMS symptoms. Research has shown that the higher the level of sugar in a woman’s diet, the more severe her pre-menstrual symptoms will be. Caffeine is a stimulant that may exacerbate PMS symptoms by contributing to the roller coaster of mood swings and sugar cravings. Alcohol takes its toll on the liver; affecting its’ ability to effectively detoxify hormones that are no longer needed (such as oestrogen) and can also cause blood sugar fluctuations, which are bad news for PMS.
