Quantum Fem Balance (Fem Gold) is a truly synergistic 15-herb formula supporting optimal hormone balance for both menstruating or menopausal women. It features key, grade 10 herbs as well as "assistant" herbs for immune system and detox (lymph drainage) support. These herbs are sourced from pristine growing places including the central forests of India, South American plantations and deep central Mexico (far away from polluting cities and auto exhaust) ensuring the absence of toxic, chemical and pesticide residues. Some female support products feature large amounts of a single ingredient, such as dong quai or vitex. However, the biochemistry of the female body is such that the matrix of each cell really seeks small amounts of hundreds of different phytonutrients in order to function at its ideal cellular resonance. Therefore, Quantum Fem Balance contains multiple, quality synergists targeting the reproductive system, as well as exquisite co-factors and transporters to assure maximum uptake and nutrient utilization for the most rapid shift in cellular resonance.Fem Balance Ingredients and Benefits

Estrogen Therapy: Safe or Not?
You have probably heard the stunning news that hit the media hard recently about "The End of the Age of Estrogen" (that was the title of Newsweek's lead article, July 22, 2002). After women have been told for decades that hormone replacement therapy (HRT) would preserve their youth and protect them from heart attacks, the conclusive evidence is now in - hormone replacement therapy (HRT) does not work. In fact, it is just the opposite. It is now proven that HRT can elevate your risk for cancer and an early death.
Hormone Studies that Proved HRT is Dangerous
Many studies in the past have shown that HRT was highly questionable and risky. But now a woman's "decision" of whether or not to use HRT is over. The experts say do not do it. The benefits just do not outweigh its risks. Researchers at NIH conducting a large scale study (double-blind, randomized, controlled trial) with over 16,000 women found that hormone therapy (using estrogen/progestins) conclusively raised the risk of heart attack, stroke, blood clots and breast cancer. The federally sponsored study was supposed to run for 8 years, but after 5 years, the results were so unnerving, that the study was cut short and the researchers began calling participants to tell them to stop taking their hormones - cold. One doctor from Harvard has called it, "the most dramatic sea change I've seen in medicine." Also released in the same month (July, 2002), was another stunning study (done by the National Cancer Institute with over 44,000 women tracked for 20 years) in which researchers found that women who used HRT increased their risk for ovarian cancer.
Looking For a Nontoxic Hormone Approach?
For the last 50 years, many women have unknowingly placed their trust in HRT. Since HRT has now been shown ineffective and dangerous (i.e. increasing the risk of heart attacks, ovarian and breast cancer and more), many women are now searching for a safe, reliable means of achieving hormone balance and a way to reverse the potential damage from previous use of HRT. Fortunately, 100% natural hormone support is available as well as elegant nutraceutical products for DNA repair.
Recommended Use: Take 1 capsule, 3 times daily.
