InterestModerate interest

Abstract in brief

  • The text discusses a review of how effective and safe phytoestrogens (plant-based compounds with estrogen-like effects) are in reducing menopausal vasomotor symptoms like hot flashes and night sweats, especially compared to no treatment or hormone therapy.
  • Researchers examined multiple electronic databases and grey literature sources to find randomized studies involving perimenopausal or postmenopausal women experiencing these symptoms for at least 12 weeks, focusing on interventions like foods or supplements rich in phytoestrogens.
  • The review excluded studies involving women with breast cancer and aimed to determine whether phytoestrogen-rich products are acceptable, effective, and safe for managing menopausal hot flashes and night sweats.

Чи ефективно лікувати патологічний клімакс фітопрепаратами ? За результатами численних клінічних досліджень вживання фітоекстрогенів, БАДів є цілком безпечним, але майже неефективним. https://t.co/jo7UshBxYL #DietarySupplement@Dobradija #новини@Dobradija #БАДы #здоровье #зож https://t.co/oywZy5CcJS
