For years studies have been carried out for finding out natural remedies for the treatment of hot flashes. In recent times new studies which are first of its kind carried on postmenopausal women have shown that the nutritional supplements which are made from whole soy germ and contain the natural S-equol act as excellent remedies for reducing the frequent occurrences of hot flashes both moderate and severe.
They are also helpful in reducing muscle and joint pain. The compound S-equol that is the effective remedy is formed with the help of the bacteria present in the digestive tract of many women from the natural metabolism, or conversion, of daidzein, which is an isoflavone that is found in whole soybeans.
However, there are some problems in having the compound since not every woman is able to form the compound after consuming soy. It is dependent on the presence of a particular type of bacteria in the large intestine and also depends on the amount of soy consumed by the woman.
A study conducted on 102 postmenopausal women in USA has shown that a treatment by giving daily SE5-OH supplement having dosage of 10, 20 and 40 mg of Natural S-equol for consistently eight weeks helped in reducing the problem of frequent severe and moderate severe hot flashes. It had the same effect that a soy isoflavone supplement of 50 mg dosage had on other women. It has also been seen that those women who complained of having severe joint pains or muscle pains have also benefitted by having a dosage of 10 mg to 20 mg of Natural S-equol compound than having isoflavone products.
Thus the study concluded that if a woman has a daily dose of 10 mg of Natural S-equol then she would get the relief from both the problems of hot flashes as well as muscle and joint pains which are also part of the problems related to menopause. However, researches are being continued to find the other effects of this compound on the bone health of women.
The studies have further showed that there are no problems created by this compound in the reproductive system of the women and also no changes were recorded on the serum concentrations of the hormones secreted by these women. Ultrasound tests have shown that the thickness of the lining of the uterus and the tissues that line the vagina have shown no adverse effects of these soy supplements.
