How Folate Supports Women In The Menopause
Discover the newest episode of the Quatrefolic 360° series, available on YouTube, dedicated on how folate supplementation may support women experiencing menopausal symptoms as hot flashes.
Hot flashes are transient sensations of heat, sweating, flushing, anxiety, and chills lasting for 1–5 min. They are not life-threatening, but the experience can be unpleasant and painful, and they can result in an overall decrease in the quality of physical, emotional, and social life.
Studies have shown that folate* supplementation significantly ameliorates hot flushes in postmenopausal women with a mechanism similar to Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT), by interacting with monoamine neurotransmitters in the brain.
Interesting to note that the other alternative therapies like herbs and drugs including antidepressants have been not widely accepted by women because have some side effects, like reduced patients’ tolerance, drug interactions that may limit their use, and be not effective for all patients.
Thanks to the 360° brochure dedicated to menopausal symptoms take the time to dive into the exciting world of folate to better understand how choosing Quatrefolic® is choosing the right form of folate.
