8 Health Benefits Of Red Clover for Women
The Fifth and final ingredient in Lavida Health’s Women’s Blend Extract is Red Clover (Trifolium pratense). The most interesting health benefits of red clover include its ability to treat estrogen imbalances, lower cholesterol, stimulate urination, boost circulation, strengthen bones, protect the immune system, reduce hypertension, and protect the cardiovascular system.
Red Clover is a small perennial plant that grows across Europe and western Asia, as well as some parts of Africa. The flowers are small and pinkish-purple, and due to their rapid growth rate and high nutritional value, they are often used as feed for animals. The plant has traditionally been used in parts of Europe and Asia for the treatment of many health conditions.
The leaves and flower of Red contain phytosterols, antioxidants, and anti-inflammatory compounds. We have prepared a very powerful extract containing this plant. Medicinal amounts of this herb are considered safe, but it is important not to consume too much, as it can be toxic.
8 Health Benefits Of Red Clover
Eases Menstruation & Menopause
The hormonal impacts of red clover are significant, particularly in women. The isoflavones found in red clover mimic estrogen, so for women who may struggle to maintain estrogen levels, red clover can help balance their hormonal shifts and prevent mood swings, as well as reduce breast pain. This applies to women undergoing PMS as well as menopause, as both of the conditions can cause fluctuations in hormone levels.
Reduces Hypertension
The unique properties of red clover include its ability to reduce inflammation throughout the body, particularly in the cardiovascular system. Studies have linked the use of its tea to a significant reduction in the tension of arteries and blood vessels, therefore reducing blood pressure. This can help prevent coronary heart diseases and a variety of other cardiovascular conditions.
Boosts Immune System
Red clover provides a high dose of vitamin C. Vitamin C is a powerful immune system booster and can help stimulate the production of white blood cells.
Prevents Infections
Red Clover can supply you with a healthy dose of antioxidants. Antioxidants can neutralize free radicals, which cause degenerative diseases and cell mutation. The overall immune boost of red clover includes preventing infections, both viral and bacterial.
Maintain Healthy Cholesterol Levels
If you struggle to maintain healthy cholesterol levels, you significantly increase your chances of heart attacks and strokes as a result of atherosclerosis. Therefore, anything that can lower cholesterol levels is valuable, and research has shown that LDL cholesterol levels can be reduced by adding red clover.
Blood Circulation
The Coumarins found in red clover keep the blood flowing smoothly and stimulate healthy circulation, preventing high blood pressure and cardiovascular distress.
Detoxify the Body
If you want to find a quick way to detoxify your body and clear your system of excess toxins and salts, nothing works better than a diuretic. Red clover has been connected to increased urination, thereby helping to release excess water, toxins, and even fat from the body.
