Menopause Weight Loss Products, Estrin D

By Ricardo d Argence

Menopause may be a natural stage in a woman's life but the accompanying weight gain has all women worried. Weight gain is not just bad for cosmetic reasons but also unhealthy too.

The latest researches have established that the risks related to high blood pressure increase by at least five percent per two pounds increase in the weight! The decreasing estrogen levels also cause a decrease in the metabolism, which causes the body to hang on to its fat resources more tenaciously.

This weight gain also causes several additional health issues. Menopausal weight gain has been linked to certain kinds of cancer including breast cancer, as well as diabetes and heart disease.

The modern science with help of pharmacy industry has made a product, which helps women with menopausal weight loss problems. Since menopauses increases a womans appetite, the claim is that using these weight loss products may help regulate your metabolism. They also state that they can aid women in handling menopausal symptoms as well as protecting them with nutrients.

A new product for menopausal weight loss is Estrin D. It claims to have ingredients like caffeine, guarana, yerba, matte and herbal constituents like damiana, ginger, schisandra and Tibetan ginseng. The ingredients assist in controlling appetite, as well as stimulate metabolism and decrease chance of mood swings, which can change because of changes in hormone levels. They are all known to increase the basal metabolic rate in a person. The caffeine present in the product is a natural stimulant as well. But, can this be used by women undergoing menopause is the question that arises.

Consuming caffeine during menopause has negative consequences, according to medical studies. Caffeine in normal circumstances can cause an increase in the heart rate, increase blood pressure, sweating. There is evidence that caffeine consumption may have a negative effect on menopausal women. Consuming caffeine might greatly worsen classic menopausal symptoms such as night sweats, insomnia, and hot flashes. During menopause it is important to limit caffeine consumption as it has been linked to osteoporosis.

User reviews indicate that the product contains high levels of stimulants, and this is not something that women who are experiencing menopause should be exposed to. These stimulants may cause nausea, anxiety and jitters in women. Besides, stimulants do not guarantee sustained weight loss. There also appear to be no appetite suppressants in it's formula. Caffeine will not produce any significant fat loss when compared to a patented fat burner. Despite how much it costs, there is no guarantee of getting your money back.

Menopause problems can be overcome by proper diet and exercise rather than these supplements. These supplements do more harm than good due to such a high amount of stimulants. All you need to do is cut the fat and the fried foods in your diet and exercise regularly. - 16650
