NeoGenesis Black Cohosh 500mg - 2.5% Standardised Extract - Menopause, Hot Flush, Night Sweat & Women's Hormonal Support - 30 Capsules
THE CLASSIC WOMEN'S HERB FOR THE MENOPAUSAL TRANSITION
Hot flushes. Night sweats. Broken sleep. Feeling too hot for no reason. Mood changes. Irritability. The uncomfortable transition through perimenopause and menopause.
Black Cohosh (Actaea racemosa) has become one of the world's best-known botanical choices for women navigating this stage of life.
NeoGenesis Black Cohosh delivers a concentrated 500 mg 20:1 extract = to 10 000mg of root extract per capsule, standardised to 2.5% triterpene saponins for consistent potency from capsule to capsule.
This isn't simply powdered Black Cohosh root.
500 MG CONCENTRATED EXTRACT 2.5% STANDARDISED ONCE-DAILY CONVENIENCE
WHY DO WOMEN USE BLACK COHOSH?
Black Cohosh is most commonly chosen during perimenopause and menopause, particularly for:
Hot flushes
Night sweats
Menopausal temperature changes
Sleep disruption associated with menopause
Mood changes & irritability
Menopausal tension
Female hormonal transition
General menopausal wellbeing
THE MENOPAUSE HERB.
FROM NATIVE NORTH AMERICA TO MODERN WOMEN'S HEALTH
Black Cohosh is native to the forests of eastern North America, where its roots and rhizomes have a long history of medicinal use among Indigenous peoples.
The botanical later entered Western herbal practice and ultimately became particularly associated with women's reproductive and menopausal health.
Its reputation eventually travelled to Europe, where Black Cohosh became sufficiently established that specific preparations have been authorised as herbal medicinal products for the relief of menopausal symptoms, including hot flushes. European Medicines Agency (EMA)
Today it remains one of the most recognisable botanical ingredients used by women during the menopausal transition.
THE SCIENCE HAS MOVED BEYOND FOLKLORE
Black Cohosh is unusual among traditional women's herbs because it has been investigated in numerous human clinical trials.
A 2023 updated meta-analysis assessed 22 articles involving 2,310 menopausal women. Black Cohosh extracts were associated with significant improvements in overall menopausal symptoms, hot flushes and physical/somatic menopausal symptoms compared with placebo. PubMed
Individual randomized controlled trials have also reported significant reductions in the frequency and severity of hot flushes. PubMed
Earlier reviews have found mixed results between different preparations and studies, which is particularly relevant because Black Cohosh extracts are not all chemically identical. PubMed
This is one reason NeoGenesis uses a standardised extract rather than relying simply on milligrams of unstandardised root powder.
HOW DOES BLACK COHOSH WORK?
Interestingly, Black Cohosh's reputation originally led researchers to assume it worked simply as a plant-based estrogen replacement.
The pharmacology appears considerably more complex.
Research has investigated interactions involving serotonergic, dopaminergic and neuroendocrine signalling, helping explain why Black Cohosh continues to be studied for the cluster of temperature-regulation, sleep and emotional symptoms associated with menopause. PubMed
In other words:
BLACK COHOSH IS NOT SIMPLY "PLANT ESTROGEN."
Its actions appear to involve broader signalling systems associated with the menopausal transition.
HOT FLUSHES & TEMPERATURE CONTROL
This is Black Cohosh's headline application.
Hot flushes and night sweats are vasomotor symptoms associated with the hormonal and neurological changes of menopause.
Black Cohosh is one of the most extensively researched herbal ingredients used specifically for this menopausal symptom cluster.
Human trials have investigated changes in:
HOT-FLUSH FREQUENCY
HOT-FLUSH SEVERITY
NIGHT SWEATS
OVERALL MENOPAUSAL SYMPTOM SCORES
QUALITY OF LIFE
A randomized double-blind trial involving 84 postmenopausal women, for example, reported significant differences in both hot-flush frequency and severity after Black Cohosh supplementation compared with placebo. PubMed
SLEEP, MOOD & THE "I DON'T FEEL LIKE MYSELF" STAGE
Menopause isn't only about hot flushes.
Women frequently seek Black Cohosh because the transition can involve a much broader collection of experiences:
Broken sleep
Night-time overheating
Feeling tense
Irritability
Changes in emotional wellbeing
Reduced everyday quality of life
This broader symptom profile is why Black Cohosh has remained such an important women's botanical rather than becoming simply another "hot-flush supplement."
WHY STANDARDISATION MATTERS
A bottle saying "Black Cohosh" tells you surprisingly little.
Plant extracts vary enormously depending on the plant material, extraction process and final phytochemical profile.
NeoGenesis therefore doesn't simply provide generic root powder.
EACH CAPSULE PROVIDES:
HIGH-POTENCY 20:1 BLACK COHOSH
NeoGenesis doesn't use ordinary powdered Black Cohosh root.
Each capsule delivers 500 mg of a concentrated 20:1 Black Cohosh Root Extract - equivalent to 10,000 mg of whole root.
It is further standardised to 2.5% triterpenes, ensuring consistent potency from capsule to capsule.
ONE CAPSULE PROVIDES
500 mg actual Black Cohosh extract
20:1 concentration
10,000 mg whole-root equivalent
2.5% standardised triterpenes
12.5 mg standardised triterpenes per capsule
That's a very different proposition from simply putting several hundred milligrams of powdered Black Cohosh into a capsule.
