Menopause
Supporting and Nourishing the Change

Most treatments for menopausal women, whether
natural or more allopathic, focus on replacing
the estrogen or progesterone that is lost.
However, simply replacing estrogen is actually
trying to create a younger woman out of a woman
who is older and has other things to do and be
and accomplish!
For the younger woman, the focus is on reproduction, on
children, on home. For women who are pen or
post-menopausal, the focus is much more
universal, earth-oriented. The focus on estrogen
is a focus on reproduction. The transition into
menopause requires that, not only the adrenals,
but all the other glands in the endocrine system
create a different mix for the post-menopausal
woman.
What happens with the Amazon Rainforest Bio-Energetics,
particularly SumacazonTM is that
these nutritional herbs work by nourishing the
whole endocrine system, not by replacing
estrogen. This allows for a more natural,
healthy transition away from a focus on estrogen
to a more diverse endocrine balance that is the
natural state of a menopausal woman.
Interestingly enough, this more holistic endocrine
balance actually creates a more holistic vision.
Many societies talk about and honor the older
woman. This is because the older woman, who is
healthy, has a completely different endocrine
balance, a different hormone balance, than the
healthy woman in her reproductive years.
Have you noticed that most of the female leaders of the
world have been postmenopausal? Susun Weed, an
herbalist, speaks about healthy post-menopausal
women as being able to help our planet. Now,
when we have more women going into menopause
than ever before, it is very important for women
to understand and accomplish this transition
naturally.
Sumacazon, because it tunes the whole endocrine
system**, is an herbal blend whose time has
come.

Sumacazon Formula
Our endocrine
system includes our adrenals, thyroid,
hypothalamus, testes (men), ovaries (women).
This system is largely responsible for producing
hormones we need. As we age, many of our body's
systems may become less efficient than they were
when we were younger. The remarkable properties
of the four herbs in this product have long been
revered by the people of Brazil and Peru. They
include:
Suma - known as Brazilian Ginseng. Suma
is classified as an adaptogen for facilitating
hormonal balance and helping the body
adjust to stress.**
Maca - commonly referred to as Peruvian
Ginseng grows high in the Andes in mineral rich
soil. It is loaded with nutrients including:
Vitamins B-1, 2, 12, C & E; the minerals
calcium, iron, phosphorus, zinc and
magnesium; complex carbohydrates, amino acids
and a number of natural steroidal glycosides.
It is traditionally used to facilitate
energy, mental clarity, libido and muscle tone.**
Muira Puama - is a Brazilian shrub that
has historically been used as a tonic for the
nervous system and to nutritionally support
organs involved in healthy sexual function.**
Stevia - Is a member of the Chrysanthemum
family. Stevia is totally safe and grows wild in
South America. For centuries, people in Paraguay
and Brazil have used the leaf to sweeten
beverages and as an ingredient in medicinal
herbal teas. Unlike sugar, it does not trigger a
rise in blood sugar and does not feed yeast or
other microorganisms. Stevia is said to
increase energy, facilitate digestion and
gastrointestinal functions, regulate blood
glucose levels, and nourish the liver, pancreas
and spleen.**
*Sumacazon should not be thought of as solely or
primarily a blend for older women. Men and young
people of both sexes can certainly benefit from
a more balanced endocrine system. It is just
that this article was written by post-menopausal
women who directly appreciate what this formula
has added to their lives. |
