Menopause/Hormone Support

Phytoestrogens are plant substances capable of attaching to estrogen receptors in the body. Because they have a balancing effect on estrogen levels, phytoestrogens can be used in cases of either estrogen excess or in deficiency states. Pathway’s synergistic formula provides comprehensive menopause support with ingredients such as black cohosh, chaste berry, dong quai and red clover

Progesterone creams help to balance the estrogen-to-progesterone ratio in the body and can help to ease menopausal symptoms. Applied to the hands, chest, abdomen, or lower back, progesterone cream absorbs through the skin into the bloodstream within just a few minutes.

Indole-3-carbinol (I3C), a substance found in some vegetables (broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, etc.), and its metabolite, di-indolylmethane (DIM) exhibit protective powers against breast (and other types of) cancer. These substances help support healthy estrogen metabolism by the liver, thereby decreasing the risk of estrogen sensitive cancers.

Energy Support

The B vitamins play a major role in supporting nervous system and immune system health. They are involved in many important metabolic functions in the human body and must be replaced on a daily basis. The easiest and best way to get what your body needs is to take a B-Complex vitamin. The B vitamins work as a team and are best together in a formula.

Stress Support

Stress can be a significant factor contributing to the uncomfortable symptoms associated with menopause. Because the adrenal glands largely take over sex hormone production after menopause, supporting adrenal health and providing relaxation support can make a big difference in a woman’s quality of life. Pathway ADRENAL SUPPORT is a concentrated adaptogenic herbal formula that also features select B vitamins.

Bone Support

Aging can make women susceptible to weak and brittle bones. The consequences can be painful and debilitating. Fortunately, several natural substances can help you stay strong and mobile. Ipriflavone can help preserve the amount of calcium retained in bones and decrease bone-mineral loss.
