The 41 powerful nutrients in Synergy for Women help to promote and support:

• Strong Bones 
• Radiant Skin 
• Healthy Cholesterol Levels 
• Cardiovascular Health 
• Healthy Cell Function 
• Emotional Well-Being 
• Youthful Energy 
• Immune System Response 

• Vitamins B6, B12 and Folic Acid promote a healthy central nervous system, energy production, cardiovascular function and homocysteine levels.* Homocysteine is a emerging cardiovascular risk factor produced naturally by the body. Studies have shown that the link between homocysteine and poor cardiovascular health remains even after other risk factors such as smoking and high cholesterol are ruled out. However, homocysteine is normally broken down into harmless nutrients with the aid of vitamins B6, B12 and folic acid.  
• Coenzyme Q10 is a necessary nutrient for normal heart function and is vital for cellular energy production. CoQ10 is a powerful antioxidant and free radical scavenger.* 
• Ginkgo Biloba supports circulation to the brain as well as the extremities. This is achieved by maintaining healthy blood vessel tone and reducing blood viscosity. Additionally, Ginkgo Biloba improves mental sharpness and is a proven free radical scavenger and antioxidant. Standardized Ginkgo Biloba extract is the most frequently prescribed herbal extract by both doctors and pharmacists worldwide.*  
• Standardized Red Wine and Green Tea Extracts contain many times the level of active antioxidant compounds compared to non-standardized, and several studies indicate these compounds may protect cholesterol and brain neurons from free radical damage.* 
• Vitamin D and Calcium deficiency are of epidemic proportions with our Standard American Diet (SAD). Government surveys have indicated that teenage through elderly women consume grossly inadequate amounts of these essential nutrients needed to maintain healthy bone mass. Worse yet, studies show soda (cola) consumption with phosphoric acid actually promotes bone loss due to its high acidity. Studies indicate that adding vitamin D at 700IU and Calcium Citrate Malate (a highly bioavailable form of calcium that is up to 1,100% better absorbed when compared to calcium carbonate) at 500 mg per day not only maintained bone mass but actually reversed bone loss over a three year period versus placebo. New England Journal of Medicine, 1997 Sep 4, 10:337, 670-6 
• Thiamine (vitamin B1) and Magnesium are essential for the function known as the Krebs cycle—the primary biochemical path by which useful energy is extracted from glucose, amino acids and fats. Therefore, thiamine and magnesium are essential for healthy nerve function. Researchers studied 120 female college students given 50 mg per day of thiamine or a placebo. After just two months the students who took thiamine more than doubled their scores on the clear-headedness and mood on a psychological test. Students taking the placebo showed no change. Those taking thiamine also increased their quickness on a reaction time test. Benton D. Thiamine supplementation improves mood and cognitive functioning. Psychopharmacology 1997;129:66-71 
• Vitamin C is essential for healthy immune and cardiovascular function.* Studies have shown that low levels of vitamin C can cause fatigue and irritability. Ester-C® is the preferred form that is chelated to calcium that neutralizes its acidity. This makes Ester-C gentle on the stomach. Proc Natl Acad Sci 1996;93:3704-09 

Phytoestrogens: A Woman’s Best Defense

Because of their chemical structure, phytoestrogens (estrogens from plants) function much like human estrogen. These totally natural plant estrogens, called “estrogenic isoflavones,” can contribute to the health of your bones and skin, help promote healthy cholesterol, and even play a role in your emotional health. Additionally, the body has good and bad estrogens, just like good (HDL) and bad (oxidized LDL) cholesterol. Phytoestrogens can help reduce the negative effects of the “bad” estrogens. When your body begins to produce less estrogen, phytoestrogens such as isoflavones can help keep your estrogen level balanced.
It may surprise you to know that the physical and emotional symptoms of women’s life cycle changes are not necessarily universal. Women in Asian and Mediterranean regions, for instance, tend to have an easier time with life cycle changes than those in North America. Why? Scientists believe women in these cultures have a higher natural intake of isoflavones because soy and other legumes are among their dietary staples.

A daily diet of soy protein among Asian women has resulted in a population with lower rates of breast cancer, uterine cancer, and osteoporosis, along with a significant reduction in menopausal hot flashes. A January 1998 study in Obstetrics and Gynecology helps to confirm that it’s the abundance of phytoestrogens in soy, which are natural “good” hormone-like compounds, that reduces the frequency of undesirable symptoms related to women’s life cycle changes. 

The many types of phytoestrogens
There are many plant hormones that we know act as “good” estrogens in the body. These are classified into groups—the flavones, flavanones, flavonols, chalcones, lignans, and isoflavones.

The most common types of phytoestrogens are flavones, lignans, and isoflavones, with the latter being the most potent. Lignans and flavones are found in most cereals and fruits and vegetables. Isoflavones, however, are only found in legumes such as clover, soy, lentils, chick peas, and beans. Most American women will have modest levels of lignans and flavones in their blood and very low levels of isoflavones. Due to a much higher consumption of legumes in Asia, blood levels of the isoflavone phytoestrogens are 20-30 times greater than those of American women.

Consequently, the challenge for American women is getting enough isoflavones. Our diets typically include little or none of the foods highest in isoflavones—so daily supplements offer an easy, yet highly effective solution. 

Soy is great.  Red clover is even better.
Let’s take a closer look at isoflavones. Of the considerable range of isoflavones consumed by humans, only a small proportion are estrogenic. The most strongly estrogenic isoflavones are: Formononetin, Daidzein, Biochanin, and Genistein.
Soy is a good source of Daidzein and Genistein, but contains virtually no Biochanin and Formononetin. You would need to eat other legumes such as chick peas to obtain Formononetin and Biochanin. However, red clover is one of the few plants that conveniently delivers all four main estrogenic isoflavones present in the human diet. Clover is the richest source of isoflavones; the levels of estrogenic isoflavones in clover is at least 10-fold that of soy.

Synergy for Women provides all the important isoflavones
Synergy for Women is the only nutritional supplement available which contains both Soy Isoflavone Extract and Red Clover Extract providing 10 times as many estrogenic isoflavones as the Standard American Diet (SAD) along with 40 other powerful nutrients—all specifically formulated to promote optimal women’s health. What’s more, all the nutrients in Synergy for Women™ are in their most effective forms and amounts. And of course, all the herbal extracts contained in Synergy for Women™ are standardized to ensure their potency. If your supplement does not list standardized herbs, then you could be getting just a small percent of the active ingredient. We encourage you to compare your current supplement with the Synergy for Women™ formulation listed on this page.

Only Synergy for Women provides these doctor-endorsed nutrients designed to naturally support and maintain physical and emotional well-being throughout your natural life cycles.
