Food medicine is regarded as one of the oldest forms of medicine using therapeutic properties of plants to heal and rebalance. Each plant has its own energetic properties drying, moistening, warming, cooling, tonifying, sedating etc.

I prescribe capsuled herbs from Phoenix Medical (a leading supplier of herbal medicine in Europe and official supplier to the NHS for herbs) called Aura. There are over 51 different formulas which can be used depending on the specific symptoms you are presenting with.

Dosages vary but typically you would take 3 capsules with breakfast and in the evening.

Aura herbs are manufactured in a GMP certified factory which uses classical production methods. Certificates of Analysis are provided with every batch to ensure all ingredients comply with EU regulations.

It is important to stress they are 100% plant based, Vegan and Gluten Free.

Often just a course of herbs for 1-2 weeks can make a big difference in rebalancing the body.

They are a very popular choice for many of my patients looking for natural ways to rebalance negative life impacting Peri-Menopausal and Menopausal symptoms.

Many of my acupuncture patients also decide to use herbs. For those out of area please visit my dedicated site www.themenopauseherbalist.com
