New Supplement Aims to Provide Menopause Symptom Relief

A new nonprescription, nonhormonal supplement that aims to alleviate the frequency of hot flashes and muscle aches associated with menopause, was launched today.¹

The supplement (Equelle, Pharmavite) relies on S-equol, an intestinal bacterial metabolite of the soybean isoflavone daidzein² that binds to select estrogen receptors in the body. With this bond, S-equol helps alleviate hot flashes and muscle aches associated with menopause.

This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease, according to Pharmavite.
