The Top Ingredients to Support You Through Menopause - And Why They're All in Ooh La V®
Hey Meno Rockstar! 👋
If you've ever stood in a health store or pharmacy staring at a wall of supplements wondering what on earth you actually need - this one's for you.
As a Natural Health Practitioner with nearly 30 years of experience, I've spent a long time researching, formulating and testing ingredients. And when menopause hit me like a freight train, I went deep on exactly which botanicals and nutrients have the best evidence behind them for supporting women through the change.
The result? The Ooh La V® range. And every single one of these ingredients is in it.
Here are the ones I consider non-negotiable:
🌿 Black Cohosh One of the most researched botanicals for menopause support globally, Black Cohosh has a long history of traditional use by women navigating hormonal changes. It's a go-to for supporting temperature balance and emotional wellbeing. You'll find it in Keepin' It Cool.
🌿 Ashwagandha (KSM-66®) This powerful adaptogenic herb is one of the most talked-about ingredients in the menopause world right now, and for good reason. Ashwagandha supports the body's response to stress, which is huge during perimenopause when cortisol can go haywire. I use the premium KSM-66® form for optimal quality. Found in Rock The Change®
🌿 Sage A classic. Sage has been used by women for centuries and remains one of the most popular botanicals for supporting temperature balance and night comfort. Simple, effective and time-tested. Found in Keepin' It Cool.
🌿 Saffron The new superstar of the menopause world and one I'm particularly excited about. Saffron is gaining serious attention for its role in supporting mood and emotional wellbeing, and the research behind it is genuinely impressive. It's one of the reasons I included it in Brighter Days™.
🌿 Lion's Mane Mushroom If brain fog is your nemesis ... hello, Lion's Mane! This incredible functional mushroom is trending everywhere right now and for good reason. It's been traditionally used to support cognitive function and mental clarity. Perfect for those "where did I put my keys?" moments. Found in Brighter Days™.
🌿 Magnesium Glycinate One of the most bioavailable forms of magnesium and an absolute essential during menopause. Magnesium supports relaxation, sleep quality and nervous system function, three things that can take a serious hit during perimenopause. Found in Brighter Days.
🌿 L-Theanine Found naturally in green tea, L-Theanine is a favourite for supporting calm without drowsiness. It works beautifully alongside magnesium for those wired-but-tired feelings that so many of us know too well. Found in Keepin' It Cool and Brighter Days.
🌿 Maca A South American root with a long history of traditional use for energy, libido and vitality. If your spark has gone a little quiet, Maca is one of the most popular botanicals for supporting intimate wellness and energy. Found in Sizzle & Spark.
🌿 Hyaluronic Acid Not just for your skincare routine! Hyaluronic Acid taken internally supports hydration from the inside out, including intimate tissue comfort and skin glow. A game changer for the dryness that menopause can bring. Found in Peach Perfect and Sizzle & Spark.
The best part? You don't need to track down nine different bottles. Every single one of these ingredients is thoughtfully formulated across the Ooh La V® range, clean, practitioner-formulated and made in New Zealand from local and imported ingredients.
Because you deserve supplements that actually work, and look good on your bathroom shelf while they're at it. 💕
