Black Cohosh Helps to Menopausal Symptoms
Posted: 08-16-06 05:37am

Black cohosh reduces the frequency and intensity of hot flashes, and other menopausal symptoms. Black cohosh supplements didnt seem to make any difference to the risk of getting breast cancer, but encourged breast cancer cells to grow. For commercially prepration black cohosh usually contain 1 mg of total triterpene saponins (expressed as 26-deoxyactein) in each 20-mg dose of extract.
