Return to Eden Quality Natural USP Progesterone Cream for Menopause
Symptoms and Hot Flashes.
Women today, armed with educated health
information, know that there is a better, safer way to protect
against osteoporosis and heart disease than by using synthetic
hormones. They
have learned that it is clinically proven that one of the benefits of natural progesterone like
that found in Return to Eden organic, natural progesterone cream
is that it can actually rebuild bone
tissue with no known side effects.
With large studies* revealing that women using
synthetic estrogen for more than five years have a 46% higher risk of
breast cancer than women who don’t use it, progressive women are
deciding on a more natural course of action. They are deciding to reduce
their cancer risks while experiencing the benefits of natural USP progesterone
cream. After all, what
discriminating woman would want to increase her risk of cancer by about
50%? Women are seeing the benefits of our physician formulated and
independent lab tested progesterone cream instead. The
Return to Eden superb quality progesterone cream formula was developed by
a team of physicians based on Dr. John Lee's research.
John R. Lee, M.D. is an international
authority and pioneer in the use of natural progesterone cream and
natural hormone balance. He authored the best-selling book, "What
Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Menopause: The Breakthrough
Book on Natural Progesterone." (Recommended reading.)
A natural course of action makes a lot more
sense with progesterone cream’s proven safety. Researchers have
conducted clinical tests proving progesterone cream to be
effective and safe with no side effects.
However, not all progesterone creams are the
same. Return to Eden organic natural progesterone cream is:
- Completely
organic and artificial preservative free.
Contains vitamin E and grapefruit seed extract as natural
preservatives.
- Made in small
batches to insure that your superb natural
progesterone cream reaches you in the freshest condition
possible.
- Independent
laboratory certified for the quality of USP progesterone content
of 750 mg/oz . Many "popular creams" sold today
contain little or no USP progesterone, or at best, have
inconsistent levels of progesterone. One study showed that 50
percent of them didn't contain any measurable progesterone.
Return to Eden is one brand that is reliable!
- Made from USP
progesterone, not wild yam extract. No published
studies conclude that yam increases progesterone levels in
animals or humans. While the diosgenin molecule from wild yams
can be converted to a progesterone molecule in the laboratory,
it can NOT be in the human body. Unconverted diosgenin is a
cheap way to produce a progesterone cream, and according to Dr.
Lee does not work well. It is important to insist upon USP
progesterone, not uncertified cheap ingredients made in some
foreign countries.
- Free of
Methyl Paraben, Propyl Paraben, Butyl Paraben or
any of the related Parabens or estrogenic herbs. Those
ingredients are used as preservatives and contribute to estrogen
dominance. Paraben-class perservatives also can irritate the
skin.
- Free of
ethoxylated wetting agents, such as PEG 8
Stearate, PEG 100 Stearate, Polyethylene Glycol, Polysorbate 60,
or Polysorbate 80, which may be contaminated with 1,4-dioxane, a
known carcinogen.
- Free of
mineral oil. Mineral oil blocks the absorption of
natural progesterone.
- Free of
Stearal Konium Chloride, an emulsifier. According
to the University of Texas database, ingestion of 3 cc of this
toxic compound is enough to cause fatal convulsions in an adult
human.
What are the benefits of using progesterone
cream?
Unlike Provera, which, first, is a synthetic
progesterone or progestin, progesterone creams are applied to the skin (transdermal,
which means “through the skin”). Hormones, if taken by mouth, are
immediately passed from the small intestine to the liver and returned in
water soluble form back to the start of the small intestine. During the
process, 80% to 90% of the hormone is lost through the liver. Only a
small fraction of ingested hormones end up circulating in the blood able
to attach to appropriate receptors.
Dr. Lee recommends the transdermal cream
rather than oral progesterone, because approximately 80% to 90% of
the oral dose is lost through the liver. A 200 to 400 mg is needed
on a daily basis to achieve a physiologic dose of 50 to 24 mg. Not
only is the liver unnecessarily taxed adding to its toxic
overload, such high doses create undesirable metabolites. 6
Why do women need progesterone?
The most important of many reasons that
progesterone is needed in hormone replacement therapy for
menopausal women is to balance or oppose the effects of estrogen.
Unopposed estrogen creates a strong risk for reproductive and
breast cancers. Dr. Lee calls this "estrogen dominance." Estrogen,
as mentioned, is a potent and potentially dangerous hormone when
not balanced by adequate progesterone.
Estrogen levels drop only 40% to 60% during
menopause, but progesterone levels may drop to near zero in some
women. Because progesterone is the precursor to so many other
steroid hormones, its use can enhance hormone balance after
menopause. Since progesterone stimulates bone-building, it also
helps protect against osteoporosis.
Thus, the application of progesterone cream
provides many benefits and combats estrogen dominance providing
protection against cancers of the breast, ovaries, uterus, (endometrium),
and in men, the prostrate.
*Harvard researcher, Dr. Graham Coldtiz - a world
authority on the subject, conducted studies which showed that women who
use estrogen for more than five years have a 46% higher risk of breast
cancer than women who use none. Dr. Coldtiz’ study results came from a
sampling of 121,700 women tracked for 24 years from the famous Nurses
Health Study as reported in The New England Journal of Medicine, June
1995.
