FACT: Revival Soy can reduce menopausal hot flashes and night sweats. Results from a peer-reviewed, published study at The Johns Hopkins Hospital show that Revival Soy can reduce hot flashes naturally. Women experienced significant reductions in hot flashes and nights sweats, compared to their starting baseline levels, with daily Revival Soy use (just one serving per day). Typical reduction was nearly 40% in just 12 weeks in a study funded in part by Physicians Laboratories. It’s that simple and delicious!¹

Menopause is a natural stage of life all women experience as they age. The hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings and lack of energy can make menopause one of the most physically and emotionally miserable times in a woman’s life. So, let’s review what causes menopause, what you can expect and how Revival Soy can help support a more comfortable mid-life.

While soy is not a replacement for prescription medication or HRT, over twenty clinical trials show that soy can help you have a more enjoyable and healthy mid-life by lessening hot flashes and other mild discomforts of menopause.^1-10 Soy consumption has been shown to significantly improve a woman’s comfort and health during Peri-Menopause, Menopause and Post-Menopause. A medical review in American Family Physician (the journal of the prestigious American Association of Family Physicians) found that soy can significantly improve the discomforts of menopause.⁶

Scientists became very interested in soy’s potential role for menopause hot flashes and night sweat reduction after demographic studies revealed that only ~ 9% of women living in Asia, where the diet is rich in soy, experienced hot flashes during mid-life, in contrast to almost ~ 80 to 90% of Western women, who experience menopausal discomforts.¹¹

Because soy can reduce hot flashes and nights sweats, and may reduce the risk of heart disease when consumed as part of an overall healthy diet, many doctors and healthcare providers now recommend soy as part of a healthy mid-life nutrition strategy.

Menopause occurs when declining levels of estrogen cause changes in your periods. This is a natural part of aging and not considered a disease. During menopause, ovulation (egg production) stops, causing periods to become less frequent and eventually stop altogether. For many women, this process begins silently somewhere around age 40. Declining estrogen levels during menopause may lead to poor vaginal and uterine health. Estrogen also helps women maintain strong bones and good cholesterol levels.

Perimenopause – gradually declining hormone levels (mid-to-late 30’s to mid 40’s)

The transition to menopause is a time period known as perimenopause, a process that begins 8 to 10 years before menopause and marks the beginning of declining hormone production by the ovaries. In the final one to two years of perimenopause, the decrease in estrogen accelerates and many women begin to experience menopausal discomfort such as irregular menstrual periods, hot flashes, mood swings, and lack of energy.

Menopause – cessation of menstrual periods (late 40’s to mid 50’s)

At this stage, the ovaries have stopped releasing eggs and producing most of their estrogen. It’s during this time women can expect to experience the bulk of menopausal discomforts. Once a woman has gone 1 full year without a menstrual period, she has made it through menopause and at this point is considered postmenopausal.

Postmenopause – increased health risks (late 50’s and beyond)

These are the years following menopause. During this stage, menopausal discomforts, such as hot flashes, ease for most women.  Postmenopausal women are at increased risk for a number of health conditions, such as osteoporosis and heart disease.

Suggested Usage: Enjoy 1 or 2 naturally-concentrated (6x) Revival shakes per day with a good multivitamin.  Regular daily consumption is important for achieving all of soy’s potential benefits.

“I’m a 45-year-old perimenopausal woman. I used to wake up in the middle of the night with hot flashes. I heard about Revival and decided to give it a try. Within 2 weeks, my hot flashes had stopped. I’ve already lost 5 lbs. I intend to use Revival for the rest of my life.” – Kathy B. *

“One year ago, I had never heard of perimenopause. I’m in my early 40′s and was having hot flashes and night sweats. I heard a public radio program that explained perimenopause and recommended Revival Soy. I started using Revival three months ago – what a difference! My hot flashes and night sweats are gone, I sleep much better at night, and I have been able to shed 12 lbs. Thanks, Revival!” – Roberta S. *
