Vitex Alfalfa Liquid Extract Supreme Compound contains a blend of herbs (including Vitex, Hawthorn, and St. John's Wort) intended to support hormonal balance in women during the changes that occur during menopause and peri-menopause.*

• Provides a Natural Hormonal Balance During the Onset Of Menopause*
• Rich Natural Source of Phytoestrogens*
• Supports Healthy Levels of Progesterone*
• Support for the Peri-Menopause and Menopausal Years*

Vitex has been researched due to its reputation for supporting female hormonal levels during menopause and menstruation. 93% of 1634 patients suffering from premenstrual syndrome, when administered with solid preparation from an extract of the fruit of Vitex agnus castus, reported a decrease in the number of symptoms or even cessation of PMS complaints.*

Hawthorne’s berries and flowering tops have been used medicinally for close to two millennia as a treatment for digestive problems, kidney and bladder stones, and as a diuretic. Only recently has hawthorn’s cardioprotective benefits been recognized. Today hawthorn is perceived, especially in Europe, as a prime supplement for healthy cardiovascular support.*

There have been hundreds of randomized controlled studies on St. John's Wort extract, many using the total Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD) and the Zerssen Depression scale (DS) while comparing the herbal extract to anti-depressant drugs. One double blind, randomized, placebo controlled trial conducted in France on 375 patients boasted a 50% reduction in the total Hamilton score. The most effective applications have involved mild to moderate depression as well as seasonal affective disorder cases.*

Technical Comments
There have been hundreds of randomized controlled studies on St. Johnswort Extract many using the total Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD) and the Zerssen Depression scale (DS) while comparing the herbal extract to anti-depressant drugs. One double blind, randomized, placebo controlled trial conducted in France on 375 patients boasted a 50% reduction in the total Hamilton score. The most effective applications have involved mild to moderate depression as well as seasonal affective disorder cases. The flavonoids hypericin and hyperforin have been the most lauded chemicals contained in St. Johnswort that may be responsible for its pharmacological activity yet with all the research it is still unclear which chemicals if any are “responsible” for its activity. The flowers contain many antioxidants such as Rutin, Quercitin, and Lutein. One of the best reviews published in Phytomedicine in 2002 compiled results from 34 controlled, double blinded studies on over 3000 patients and found positive results when using between 300 and 1000 mg of extract per day. More research is needed to determine the exact mechanism of therapeutic action in this plant. *

Gaia Herbs St. Johnswort Liquid Phyto-Caps are a concentrate of fresh St. Johnswort flower buds using Gaia Herbs Wholeplant Standardization process which delivers 2.7 mg of hypericins and 540 mg of extract per dose. This is equivalent to 3.6 grams of crude powdered herb or close to 4 capsules. The difference is that Gaia Herbs patented delivery system offers the absorption and rapid response of a liquid with the convenience of a vegetarian capsule. Most of the positive research has been conducted on the extract of St. Johnswort. Gaia also offers a WholePlant standardized liquid extract delivering .25 mg of hypericin per 30 drops. Since Hypericin is known to degrade if not stabilized, Gaia Herbs Liquid Extract and Liquid Phyto-Caps are tested for Shelf Stability (as are all Gaia Herbs products), so that the dosage can be trusted until the "Best By" date provided on each label. Gaia Herbs captures the essence of Natures Vitality.*
