Natur-Leaf: An alternative to Liquorice as a source of Sterols & Sterolins, although in some cases it may be less effective and in some cases more effective depending on the individual, this is a good source of Sterols and Sterolins for those who do not get on with Liquorice. Helps to balance the hormone system, Helps reduce the Cortisol/stress pathway, DHEA precursor.
Sterols and Sterolins help to normalise estrogen production (as a nutrient they will not contribute to excess estrogen, and studies indicate they have a tendency to help the immune system to help fight breast cancer). They may also, like Wild Yam, help to produce DHEA. Maintaining adequate DHEA levels is associated with general health and well-being into old age. Also, like Wild Yam, Sterols and Sterolins tend to reduce cortisol led stress reactions. In practice this can have the effect of helping to provide a calm state and lower stress levels, and improved sleep.
