Cynanchum Wilfordii
Known as Baeksu-o in Korea, cynanchum wilfordii means ‘white hair becomes black again’. The roots have been used for hundreds of years as a traditional herbal treatment for women’s health. Classified as a raw material for food by the Korean Food and Drug Administration cynanchum wilfordii has been shown to improve cardiovascular health, enhance vitality, boost the immune system, epithelial function, protect the liver and corticol neurons.
Phlomus Umbrosa
Phlomis umbrosa is a herbal root extract known as sokdan in Korea which means ‘reconnecting something discontinued’. It has been used for women’s health and as a detoxification aid for thousands of years. It has been shown to discourage mast cell secretions and histamine.

Vitamin D3
Vitamin D3 is the same form of vitamin D that our bodies naturally make from sunlight. Also known as cholecalciferol it’s important for skeletal strength and one of its main roles is to help with the absorption and optimum functioning of calcium by the body. A lack of vitamin D may increase our risk of weakened bones and osteoporosis. Vitamin D3 is derived from the fat in sheep wool (without causing harm to the animal).

Marine Magnesium
Magnesium is a calming mineral and helps optimise the work of vitamin D3. It has many other important roles and is essential for bone, brain, muscle and nerve health as well as being an essential component of our DNA. Magnesium is also beneficial to blood pressure, insulin metabolism and energy levels. Low levels of magnesium are associated with headaches, Alzheimer’s disease, hypertension, cardiovascular disease and Type-2 diabetes.
The marine magnesium we use in 55+ is known as Aquamin and comes from the cytoskeleton of red algae. During this aquatic plants life, it accumulates minerals from the seawater which is stored as carbonate salts in the plant. Sourced from clean waters off the coastline of Iceland, it’s a natural form of highly absorbable magnesium – magnesium hydroxide. Other than washing and milling, Aquamin is unaltered from the raw material and as such represents a natural multi-mineral material that has FDA GRAS certification.

Safe for Breast Cancer Patients
During clinical trials, EstroG-100™ showed an inhibition of proliferation of human breast cancer cells (mcf-7) and no binding affinity to estrogen receptors er a and er β. It has been through acute, multi-dose and genetic toxicity tests which have shown it to be safe for breast cancer patients.
