Trifolium pratense | Menopausal Wellness · Hormone Balance · Bone & Cardiovascular Support
Nineteenth-century American herbalists called red clover blossom a "blood purifier" and reached for it as a general tonic. Today, this same soft pink-purple flower has found a very specific modern reputation: one of the most recognized botanicals in women's hormonal wellness.
Red clover's modern reputation centers on isoflavones — plant compounds, including formononetin and biochanin A, studied in clinical research for their relationship to normal, healthy hormone balance.* Clinical trials have specifically examined red clover's relationship to comfort during the menopausal transition, though we want to be transparent that results across studies have been mixed.*
