What are the key ingredients?: MegaMag® PeriMeno Plus features a targeted combination of nutrients including well-researched vitamins, minerals and herbs that work in unison to provide relief from perimenopausal symptoms:
- Magnesium: Reduces tiredness and low energy levels, provided in a glycinate form which is highly absorbable and gentle on the stomach.
- Vitamins B6, B12 and folate: In their active forms, to support healthy hormone balance and the nervous system, including anxiety and low mood.
- Vitamin C: Commonly depleted by HRT medications, which are frequently taken by women experiencing menopausal symptoms. Vitamin C is an important antioxidant which supports immune function.
- Botanicals: Ashwagandha, rhodiola, sage, shatavari and red clover, provided as standardised extracts which guarantee the consistency of each herb from batch to batch.
- Ashwagandha: Ashwagandha in its well-researched KSM-66® extract can support resilience to stress. Clinical studies have demonstrated that Ashwagandha can also help support good sleep and cognitive function.1
- Rhodiola: An adaptogenic herb used to support cognitive function, low mood and burnout.
- Sage: A herb with a long history of use for supporting excessive sweating and menopause comfort. Research suggests that Sage supplementation may help moderate the severity and frequency of hot flushes and night sweats in menopausal women. 2
- Shatavari and red clover: Two herbs with a long history of traditional use in women’s health.
How long before I feel an effect?: This supplement gets to work quickly, with 77% of people we surveyed noticing an improvement in sleep in just 2 weeks (increasing to 94% within 4 weeks), 71% reporting an improvement in brain fog in 4 weeks, and 83% experiencing increased energy in 4 weeks*. There are a range of different ingredients in MegaMag® PeriMeno Plus which have been designed to support relief for a range of symptoms, so it’s likely you will notice different symptom reductions after different time periods. For example, magnesium could support areas of health such as sleep, and some people may notice a difference in just a few days. Other ingredients, such as sage, which can support hot flashes, may take a little longer.
Studies have shown that sage can decrease symptoms such as hot flashes after 4 weeks and 8 weeks**. Additionally, Ashwagandha, at a dose of 300mg daily, has been shown to improve quality of life scores in menopausal women.*** This is highly dependent on the individual as well, but we’d recommend taking MegaMag® PeriMeno Plus for a period of 8 – 10 weeks to ensure you are feeling the full benefits.
Who is MegaMag® PeriMeno Plus for?: MegaMag® PeriMeno Plus is specifically designed for women aged 40 and over to provide support through the perimenopausal and menopausal years. It can be difficult for women to consumer enough magnesium through diet alone so deficiency is common throughout the menopause. MegaMag® PeriMeno Plus could also be taken by post-menopausal women, if symptoms continue and support is required.
How does MegaMag® PeriMeno Plus support sleep?: MegaMag® PeriMeno Plus could help to support restful sleep due to its key ingredients.
- Magnesium: known as the ‘relaxation mineral’ contributes to the production of GABA, a calming neurotransmitter crucial in preparing the brain for sleep, which helps you wind down at the end of the day. Stress can disrupt sleep, and magnesium's regulatory effect on the HPA axis—the body's stress response system—could lead to more peaceful nights.
- Ashwagandha: MegaMag® PeriMeno Plus also features Ashwagandha, an adaptogenic herb. With its species name Withania somnifera meaning "sleep-inducing," Ashwagandha has been traditionally used for sleep, and is also backed by modern research, including a 2020 study in the Journal of Ethnopharmacology*, which found it may help people fall asleep faster and enjoy improved sleep quality, likely due to its content of withanolides that aid in managing stress, a common sleep disruptor.
How does MegaMag® PeriMeno Plus support energy?: MegaMag® PeriMeno Plus could help to support restful sleep due to its key ingredients.
- Magnesium Glycinate: MegaMag® PeriMeno Plus provides key nutrients essential for cellular energy production, primarily magnesium glycinate which is a form of magnesium that is crucial for the optimal function of mitochondria, often referred to as the 'powerhouses' of our cells. These organelles are responsible for generating ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the primary energy currency of the cell. Magnesium's role in supporting mitochondrial function ensures that the body can efficiently produce and utilise ATP, to fuel the processes of the body.
- Vitamin B12: Additionally, MegaMag® PeriMeno Plus features Vitamin B12, which is vital for energy production because it plays a significant role in the metabolism of every cell in the body, enabling the release of energy from the food we eat, and is particularly important for maintaining healthy nerve cells and the production of DNA.
- Vitamin C: Vitamin C, also in MegaMag PeriMeno® Plus, contributes to energy levels by supporting the metabolic pathways that produce energy in the body's cells. It's also key in combating tiredness and fatigue.
Can I take MegaMag PeriMeno Plus whilst on HRT?: Yes, it can be taken safely alongside HRT medication. This supplement can also be taken alongside a daily multivitamin such as Multi Essentials for Women
What does perimenopause do to your body?: During the perimenopause, levels of oestrogen in the body begin to rise and fall unevenly, causing your menstrual cycle to lengthen or shorten. You may begin having menstrual cycles in which your ovaries don't release an egg (ovulate). You may also experience menopause-like symptoms, such as hot flushes, sleep concerns, mood changes and vaginal dryness.
