Or...not so raging hormones!

Looking for a nontoxic hormone approach? The Life-changing Optimal Hormone Balance Program.
We at Inner Harmony hear complaints of severe hot flashes, getting up at night to urinate, partial loss of bladder control, moderate to severe mood swings, headaches, etc, in menopausal women.
Do you suffer from PMS or do you wake up at night to urinate?
Our program gets great results in younger woman, who have PMS symptoms such as bloating, cramping, excessive bleeding, depression, spotting between periods, weight gain, headaches, low energy, low blood sugar. The Optimal Hormone Balance Program is elegantly simple and embodies the best of cellular resonance. The balanced approach contains four organic world class products that really work for PMS and menopause.
Our Quantum Ultra Pollen Extract contains 18 strains of European pollen, free of pesticide, chemical and heavy metal residues. Pollen has a centuries-long history of use in many countries, providing superior hormone balance as well as increased energy, strength and longevity. Pollen contains hundreds of naturally occurring phytochemicals (highly active natural plant compounds) which help you manufacture your own bio-identical hormones so you have ample supply. It is important to realize that your hormones can be quickly used up or inactivated by exposure to toxic chemicals, such as toxic skincare products, toxic dishwashing liquid, toxic laundry soap, toxic toothpaste, household products and much more.
Pollen is rich in hundreds of different bioflavonoids as well as other special compounds, such as kaempferol and secalosides, that help protect the immune system and promote hormone balance. These compounds also promote rapid repair of DNA damage that may have occurred from using traditional pharmaceuticals such as horses urine (as found in Premarin and Prempro) or synthetic progestins, which actually depress your healthy progesterone levels. Pollen's vast phytonutrient array can also help repair DNA damage in women who may have taken birth control pills or have a history of hormone imbalance, such as difficult periods, waking to urinate at night, etc. Pristine-grade pollen can support literally all your hormone needs.
Fem Balance is a truly synergistic 15-herb formula that supports optimal hormone balance for both menstruating and menopausal women. This product features key, grade 10 herbs, such as opuntia cactus, red clover, red raspberry leaf, dong quai and squaw vine in clinically tested ratios for optimal hormone support as well as "assistant" herbs for immune system and detox (lymph drainage) support, including gardenia, citrus aurantium and golden thread along with the critical cofactors and transporters that make this formula really work. 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) to ensure no toxic chemical or pesticide residues (known hormone destroyers).
Natural Progesterone Cream.
Don't trade one problem for another! Many women with PMS or menopausal problems turn to natural progesterone cream for help – which can be a reliable, helpful vehicle to replace bio-identical progesterone – but be very wary. Many natural products contain highly questionable ingredients, including liver toxic ingredients such as propylene glycol, peg-8 stearate and even suspected carcinogenic (cancer-causing) agents such as methyl paraben. Even worse, in one study, 13 out of 14 natural progesterone cream products did not contain any actual progesterone at all.
In contrast, the type we suggest and carry contains real, bio-identical natural progesterone processed in a lab from wild yam, in the exact amounts recommended by Dr. John Lee, the renowned medical expert on natural progesterone. The base of our cream is 100% natural, made from plant extracts, not toxic propylene glycol. We have noticed many women who use creams with a propylene glycol base will often suffer from oestrogen dominance symptoms, such as swelling, weight gain, fatigue, headaches, etc., because these toxic chemical tagalongs can make the liver toxic. These products can create liver stress, which provides rapid aging and loss of hormone balance. Natural progesterone cream without the toxic tagalongs can be one of the best stabilizers of hormone balance for women of any age by supplying ample amounts of progesterone, typically chronically deficient in women of all ages.
Estro Flavone is a natural oestrogen support supplement that contains nutrients that provide advanced hormone balance support for women. This proprietary natural blend promotes healthy hormone – especially oestrogen – metabolism and detoxification WITHOUT raising oestrogen levels. It effectively modulates overall estrogenic activity to help provide significant relief from common symptoms of PMS such as cramping, irritability and breast tenderness, as well as symptoms of perimenopause such as hot flashes, occasional mood swings and sleep imbalances.
For the past 50 years, many women have unknowingly placed their trust in Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT). Since research has shown HRT to be highly questionable and ineffective, we have seen a large transition toward more natural hormone support. Researchers at National Institutes of Health (NIH) conducted a large study (double-blind, randomized, controlled trial, the most rigorous type of investigative study possible to find that using hormone therapy (oestrogen/progesterone) conclusively raised the risk of heart attack, stroke, blood clots and breast cancer. Another study I found from the National Cancer Institute with over 44,000 women tracked for 20 years showed that women who used traditional HRT increased their risk for ovarian cancer.
A whole grain natural diet rich in organic (when possible) vegetables and fresh fruits daily provides excellent support for hormone balance. And, of course, stay away from hormone destroyers: soft drinks, coffee, foods which contain refined white flour, white sugar, fried food, hydrogenated oils or canola oil (which is mostly hydrogenate). Try our 100% organic cold pressed olive oil, EFA oil (essential fatty acids) our Premier coconut oil from India for a clean taste and excellent source of Omega 3, 6 and 9.
