New beginning and an occasion for joy? Or the door to old age and a troublesome irritation? Every woman gives a different answer when it comes to the change, because every woman experiences this stage of life in her own, personal way. The name tells you what a woman goes through in this stage of life - the change of life is a time of change and transition. The common scientific term “climacteric” is even clearer. It comes from the Greek and means roughly “flight of steps” or “ladder”. Women in the second half of their lives are therefore invited to scale a new stage of development. That this can sometimes be very strenuous and sweat inducing is obvious.
What’s interesting, however, is that women, depending on their cultural circumstances, experience this “invitation” in very different ways. Asian women, for example, often experience the transition to the second half of life as much less strenuous than European women. This phenomenon has been investigated and it was concluded that diet can play an important role in this. Asian women eat, for example, plenty of soya. And food that is rich in soya contains the natural substance “isoflavone”.
So if you want to live according to (almost) Brecht’s phrase, “just imagine, the change comes along and no one joins in…”, you should eat plenty of soya. If your menu plan rarely or never provides for this, we strongly recommend our product “Woman Aktiv”. This phenomenal product is truly unique and the top alternative. The superlative highest quality ingredients in Woman Aktiv can provide positive help for your well-being during the change of life. You’ll be truly delighted. The core of Woman Aktiv is an extensive combination of various isoflavones, from soya (glycine max) and the kudzu vine (pueraria lobata), from red clover (trifolium pratense) and the most expensive oil in the world, argan oil (Argania spinosa). Dong quai (Angelica Sinensis), lady’s mantle, evening primrose oil and borage oil round off this top product and will help you move into the second half of life with zest and enthusiasm.
How about the isoflavones? These are herbal substances. They say they have a structural similarity with the body’s own estrogens of women and they are able to simulate their force. That’s the reason of the effort – especially while the climacteric period of women. Because the body’s own production of estrogens of women is reducing while this change of life. This natural phenomenon is very often attended by different, sudatory behaviours. The herbal isoflavones are able,because of their structure, to balance the deficit of the body’s own production of estrogens and to facilitate a pleasant sense of wellbeing to women while the menopause.
Eucalyptus and peppermint, of Woman-Aktiv, give women while the particularly sudatory change of life a fresh feeling and even new energy and pep. The valuable borage oil tops this top-of-the-line product off.
In its homeland of Asia, the Soya bean is one of the most important sources of nutrition. Whether as a sauce, bean sprouts or as tofu, you find Soya everywhere. The white beans contains large quantities of isoflavones and is thus an important source of isoflavones in our Woman-Aktiv product.
The kudzu vine is just as important to us. Even if it is pretty much unknown here, it is also an excellent source of isoflavones. Pueraria lobata (kudzu vine) is a legume (bean) although the name is a little misleading. Because the kudzu vine is not a tiny bean, but a giant plant. Nowhere in the world has the kudzu vine spread so widely as in the Southern US. And it is blessed with an incredible life energy, because it grows up to 30 cm a day. Its tuberous roots burrow down up to three and a half metres into the soil. Incredible, isn’t it! For our Woman Aktiv product, we are interested above all in the leaves, seeds (beans) and roots – because this is where the isoflavones are found in abundance.
Isoflavones of the plant of the year 2007 are also included in our Woman-Aktiv-Capsules. It is hop! Guess, the most of you know hop as a plant for the brewery. Flemish scientists discovered that this cultural plant also contain isoflavones. In fact the most energetic ones that we know of the plant kingdom until now. That’s the reason why we improved the formula of Woman-Aktiv. So it includes even the high-effective isoflavones of hop.
Even red clover is full of isoflavones and also included in the caps of Woman-Aktiv.
Another, absolutely highlight is the argan oil for sure. They say it is one of the most exclusive and expensive oils of the world. One reason therefore is that there is only one place in the whole world where this argan tree is growing- in the sparing, dry and stony landscape of Morocco. The African sun, the composition of the ground and the Atlantic-swayed climate seem to be vital conditions for this tree, that belongs to the oldest trees of the world. UNESCO declared the homeland of the argan tree as a world biosphere reserve because he is unique.
How argan oil is extracted and its unique composition are what make it so exquisite. The liquid gold of Morocco is quite different from many other oils. It contains the highest concentration of essential fatty acids (more than 80%), linoleum acid, omega 6 fatty acids, and isoflavones as an all-natural compound. Additionally, it is packed with vitamin E (approx. 620 mg a litre). In comparison: olive oil "only" boasts about 340 mg a litre.
The argan tree grows up to 15 metres high and bears yellow fruit, similar to plums or olives, many times each year. The fruit contain nuts, about three times the size of a hazelnut. In turn, these contain seeds, smaller than a sunflower seed. And this is where the oil is found. It is still extracted by hand today. It is laboriously cold pressed from the exposed seeds using a stone hand mill. You need about 20 kg to produce a single litre of this exclusive oil.
We recommend taking 2 capsules daily (one in the morning, one in the evening).
