Menopause is a natural stage in the life of every woman. Despite the fact that this stage is not a disease, many women experience great difficulties during menopause. Due to a decrease in ovarian function, the entire hormonal and nervous system undergoes changes that is manifested by a number of unpleasant symptoms:
frequent and usually unreasonable mood swings;
increased anxiety, vulnerability and resentment;
fast fatigability;
increased sweating.
In addition, menopause is accompanied by other age-related changes. The risk of cardiovascular problems increases and the condition of the musculoskeletal system worsens: bones and teeth become brittle, cartilage and connective tissues are destroyed, and the risk of joint diseases increases.
During menopause, nutraceutical support is especially important for women. If a person consumes enough trace elements, all internal organs can work smoothly. With menopause, the hormone estrogen is produced in insufficient quantities: this is what all the side effects are associated with. Cedar nut oil contains nutrients that minimize the unpleasant symptoms of menopause, as well as prevent the development of diseases of the cardiovascular system and the musculoskeletal system.
Cedar nut oil helps to balance hormonal levels
During menopause, doctors give some women special drugs called hormone replacement therapy. These drugs help to cope with hormonal changes. They are a pharmacological replacement for the lost hormonal function of the ovaries. However, there are all-natural nutrients that play a supportive, not a replacement role, and are completely harmless. They are contained in cedar nut oil:
Vitamin E contributes to the natural production of progesterone and estrogen. It also has proven efficiency in the treatment of menopausal complications such as genitourinary syndrome.[1]
Pantothenic acid stimulates the production of hormones by the adrenal glands, thereby maintaining the endocrine system in balance.
Retinol is involved in the biosynthesis of protein necessary for the health of the hormonal system.
Phenylalanine is an amino acid that is also involved in the synthesis of hormones.
Niacin (vitamin PP) is involved in the synthesis of estrogen.
Cedar nut oil is good for the nervous system and mood
Mood swings are one of the most annoying side effects of menopause. It can be expressed in excessive sensitivity, tearfulness, irritability, anxiety, and outbursts of anger.
Cedar nut oil contains nutrients that normalize the state of the nervous system even under very severe stress. They are also effective for mood swings caused by hormonal changes in the body. This is primarily magnesium [2] and omega-3 fatty acids. In addition, antioxidant vitamins A and E have an indirect effect on the nervous system. It has been proven that the reduction in oxidative stress that occurs due to their intake significantly reduces the risk of mood disorders of any etiology. [3] The amino acids methionine, tryptophan, and alanine also contribute to normal mood. Alanine, in addition, eliminates the so-called «hot flashes» that often occur during menopause. This amino acid contributes to the normal secretion of the sebaceous and sweat glands.
Cedar nut oil strengthens the musculoskeletal system and blood vessels
Menopause is inevitably associated with numerous age-related changes that occur in a woman's body. Unfortunately, during this period, the risk of many serious diseases increases. The most serious among them are cardiovascular diseases (atherosclerosis, heart attacks, strokes, and other complications) and diseases associated with the weakening of the musculoskeletal system (arthritis, arthrosis, and osteoporosis).
Cedar nut oil is one of the most effective natural remedies for maintaining cardiovascular health. It is rich in unsaturated fatty acids that have repeatedly proven to be a huge contribution to reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease. Alpha-linolenic acid, together with oleic acid (found in cedar nut oil), also reduces the risk of recurrent heart attacks.[4] The health of the musculoskeletal system requires zinc, thiamine, and amino acids that are also rich in cedar nut oil.
Thus, regular intake of cedar nut oil prevents the occurrence of unpleasant symptoms associated with menopause. Cedar nut oil also reduces the risk of serious age-related diseases.
