Section 1: Fundamentals of Dietary Dietary Danshxes for Women’s Health

1.1. What are dietary supplements? Determination and regulation.

Biologically active additives (dietary supplements) are concentrates of natural or identical to natural biologically active substances, designed for direct intake with food or introduction into food products in order to enrich the rations with individual food or biologically active substances and their complexes, as well as to maintain the normal functioning of the organism and systems. Unlike drugs, dietary supplements are not intended for the treatment of diseases. They are aimed at maintaining health, preventing diseases and improving overall well -being.

Bades regulation in different countries may vary. In Russia, control of dietary supplements is carried out by the Federal Service for Supervision of Consumer Rights Protection and Human Blessing (Rospotrebnadzor). Bades are subject to state registration, after which the manufacturer receives a certificate of state registration (SGR), which confirms the compliance of the products with the established security requirements. It is important to check the presence of SGR when buying dietary supplements.

1.2. The difference between dietary supplements and medicines.

Key differences in dietary supplements and drugs:

  • Appointment: Medicines are intended for the treatment, diagnosis and prevention of diseases. Bades – to maintain health, enrich the diet and prevention.
  • Clinical trials: Medicines are undergoing perennial clinical trials to prove effectiveness and safety. Bades do not go through such strict tests.
  • Evidence base: The drugs require a serious evidence base of their effectiveness. For dietary supplements, security and compliance with the declared composition are sufficient.
  • Dosage: Medicines have clearly defined dosages and reception modes developed on the basis of clinical studies. Dose dosages are usually advisory in nature.
  • Regulation: The production and sale of drugs is strictly regulated by the state. Control over dietary supplements is less rigid.
  • Recipe: Medicines are often released according to a doctor’s prescription. Bades, as a rule, are sold without a prescription.
  • Effect on the body: Medicines have a pharmacological effect on the body aimed at eliminating the cause or symptoms of the disease. Bades have a general strengthening and preventive effect.

1.3. The main groups of dietary supplements for women’s health.

Bad for women’s health can be classified by their main purpose and composition:

  • Bades to maintain hormonal balance: Contain phytoestrogens, vitamins and minerals that affect the hormonal system.
  • Bad for reproductive health: Contain folic acid, vitamin E, omega-3 fatty acids and other substances necessary for the normal functioning of the reproductive system.
  • Bad for the beauty and health of the skin, hair and nails: Contain collagen, hyaluronic acid, biotin, vitamins and minerals.
  • Bades to maintain the health of bones and joints: Contain calcium, vitamin D3, vitamin K2, type II collagen, glucosamine and chondroitin.
  • Bades to increase immunity and overall well -being: Contain vitamin C, vitamin D, zinc, selenium, echinacea, probiotics and prebiotics.
  • Bades to improve digestion: Contain enzymes, probiotics and prebiotics.
  • Bad for weight control: Contain substances that accelerate metabolism and reduce appetite.

1.4. The principle of operation of dietary supplements: bioavailability and digestibility.

The principle of operation of dietary supplements is based on filling the deficiency of the necessary substances in the body and maintaining the normal functioning of organs and systems. The effectiveness of dietary supplements depends on its bioavailability and digestibility.

  • Bioavailability – This is the degree and speed with which the active substance from the dietary supplement enters the systemic bloodstream and becomes affordable for exposure to target organs and tissues. Different factors, such as the form of release, the composition of the dietary supplement, the state of the gastrointestinal tract and the individual characteristics of the body, influence bioavailability.
  • Absorption – This is the ability of the body to absorb and use nutrients from dietary supplements. The digestibility is affected by the same factors as bioavailability.

To increase the bioavailability and digestibility of dietary supplements, manufacturers use various technologies, such as microcapsulation, liposomal delivery and chelat compounds.

1.5. Risk and side effects of dietary supplements.

Despite the fact that dietary supplements are not drugs, they can cause side effects and represent certain health risks:

  • Allergic reactions: Bades may contain ingredients that cause allergies (for example, herbs, pollen, lactose).
  • Interaction with drugs: Bades can interact with medicines by changing their effectiveness or increasing side effects.
  • Overdose: Exceeding the recommended dosage of dietary supplements can lead to undesirable consequences for health.
  • Poor composition: Some dietary supplements may contain impurities, toxic substances or ingredients not indicated on the label.
  • Lack of proven effectiveness: The effectiveness of some dietary supplements is not confirmed by scientific research.
  • Contraindications: Some dietary supplements are contraindicated in certain diseases or conditions (for example, pregnancy, breastfeeding, autoimmune diseases).

1.6. The importance of consulting a doctor before taking dietary supplements.

Consulting with a doctor before taking dietary supplements is a necessary precaution that will help to avoid undesirable health consequences. The doctor will be able to evaluate your health status, identify possible contraindications and choose the most suitable dietary supplement, taking into account your individual needs. The doctor will also be able to evaluate the potential interaction of dietary supplements with the drugs you have taken. Never self -medicate and do not take dietary supplements without consulting a doctor.

Section 2: Bad to maintain hormonal balance

2.1. Causes of hormonal imbalance in women.

Hormonal imbalance is a condition in which the normal ratio of hormones in the body is disturbed. In women, hormonal imbalance can occur for various reasons:

  • Age changes: Menopause, preenopause and puberty are accompanied by significant hormonal changes.
  • Pregnancy and breastfeeding: These periods are associated with increased production of certain hormones.
  • Stress: Chronic stress can disrupt the endocrine system and lead to hormonal imbalance.
  • Inal meals: The lack of nutrients and an excess of harmful substances can negatively affect the hormonal background.
  • Endocrine system diseases: Diseases of the thyroid gland, adrenal glands and ovaries can cause hormonal imbalance.
  • Taking drugs: Some drugs (for example, hormonal contraceptives) can affect hormonal background.
  • Obesity: Excess weight can disrupt the production of hormones.
  • Genetic predisposition: Hereditary factors can play a role in the development of hormonal imbalance.

2.2. Bades with phytoestrogens:

Phytoestrogens are natural compounds contained in plants, which in their structure and action are similar to estrogens – female sex hormones. They can contact estrogen receptors in the body and have a weak estrogenic effect. Phytoestrogens can be useful for women during menopause, when the level of own estrogen is reduced.

  • 2.2.1. Soybeans and isoflavoni:

    • The mechanism of action: Soy isoflavones (genestenein, daidzein and glycitein) are associated with estrogen receptors, exerting a weak estrogenic effect. They can also have antioxidant and anti -inflammatory properties.
    • Indications: Symptoms of menopause (tides, night sweating, dry vaginal), prevention of osteoporosis, reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases.
    • Contraindications: Individual intolerance, pregnancy, breastfeeding, estrogen-dependent tumors (breast cancer, endometrial cancer).
    • Reviews of doctors: Many doctors believe that soybean isoflavons can be useful to alleviate the symptoms of menopause in some women. However, they emphasize the need to consult a doctor before taking, especially in the presence of contraindications. Some studies show that soybean isoflavones can reduce the frequency and intensity of the tides, but their effectiveness can be individual. There are also fears about the possible influence of isoflavons on the development of estrogen-dependent tumors, so their intake should be under the strict control of the doctor.
  • 2.2.2. Red Clover:

    • The mechanism of action: Red clover contains isoflavons (biohanin A, formononetin, didzein and genestoin), which are associated with estrogen receptors.
    • Indications: Symptoms of menopause (tides, night sweating), prevention of osteoporosis.
    • Contraindications: Individual intolerance, pregnancy, breastfeeding, estrogen-dependent tumors, blood coagulation disorders.
    • Reviews of doctors: Some doctors consider the red clover an effective tool for alleviating symptoms of menopause, especially tides. However, additional studies are needed to confirm its effectiveness and safety. As in the case of soy, taking red clover should be under the supervision of a doctor, especially in the presence of contraindications.
  • 2.2.3. Tsimycifuga (Clopogon is cystic):

    • The mechanism of action: The mechanism of action of cimicifuga is not fully studied. It is believed that it does not contain phytoestrogens, but can affect the production of luteinizing hormone (LH), which plays a role in the regulation of the menstrual cycle and hormonal balance. It is also assumed that it can act as a selective modogen receptor modulator (SERM).
    • Indications: Symptoms of menopause (tides, night sweating, mood swings), PMS.
    • Contraindications: Individual intolerance, pregnancy, breastfeeding, estrogen-dependent tumors, liver diseases.
    • Reviews of doctors: Tsimicifuga is one of the most studied plant drugs to relieve symptoms of menopause. Many doctors consider it effective and safe for short -term use. However, prolonged use of cimicifuga requires a doctor’s control, since there are concerns about its influence on the liver.
  • 2.2.4. Wild Yams:

    • The mechanism of action: The wild YAMS contains diosgenin, which is the predecessor of progesterone. However, the human body cannot transform diosgenin into progesterone, so the wild iams does not have a direct progesterone effect. It is assumed that it can affect the hormonal balance due to other mechanisms that have not been fully studied.
    • Indications: Symptoms of menopause, PMS.
    • Contraindications: Individual intolerance, pregnancy, breastfeeding, estrogen-dependent tumors.
    • Reviews of doctors: Many doctors are skeptical of the use of a wild yams to maintain hormonal balance, since there is no sufficient scientific evidence of its effectiveness. Some women note an improvement in well -being when taking a wild yams, but this may be due to the placebo effect.

2.3. Bades with vitamin D: role in hormonal balance, dosage, reviews of doctors.

Vitamin D plays an important role in the regulation of the hormonal system. It affects the production of sex hormones, thyroid hormones and adrenal hormones. Vitamin D deficiency can lead to hormonal imbalance and various health problems.

  • Role in the hormonal balance: Vitamin D is involved in the synthesis of sex hormones (estrogen, progesterone and testosterone). It also affects the work of the thyroid gland and adrenal glands. Vitamin D deficiency can lead to a violation of the menstrual cycle, a decrease in fertility, the development of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCA) and other problems.
  • Dosage: The recommended daily dose of vitamin D for adults is 600-800 IU (international units). However, with vitamin D deficiency, the doctor may prescribe higher doses (2000-5000 IU per day) under the control of vitamin D levels in the blood.
  • Reviews of doctors: Doctors often recommend taking vitamin D as a dietary supplement, especially in the autumn-winter period, when the production of vitamin D in the skin is reduced under the influence of sunlight. They emphasize the importance of monitoring the level of vitamin D in the blood and the selection of individual dosage. Vitamin D is considered an important factor for maintaining hormonal balance and bone health.

2.4. Bades with magnesium: influence on the hormonal system, dosage, reviews of doctors.

Magnesium is an important mineral that is involved in many biochemical processes in the body, including the regulation of the hormonal system. It affects the production of sex hormones, stress hormones and thyroid hormones.

  • Influence on the hormonal system: Magnesium helps regulate the level of cortisol (stress hormone). It also participates in the synthesis of sex hormones and thyroid hormones. Magnesium deficiency can lead to PMS, painful menstruation, hormonal differences and other problems.
  • Dosage: The recommended daily dose of magnesium for women is 310-320 mg.
  • Reviews of doctors: Doctors often recommend taking magnesium as a dietary supplement to alleviate the symptoms of PMS, reduce anxiety and improve sleep. Magnesium is considered an important factor for maintaining hormonal balance and general well -being. There are various forms of magnesium (citrate, glycinate, oxide), and the doctor can recommend the most suitable form depending on individual needs.

2.5. Bades with iodine: the role in the functioning of the thyroid gland, dosage, reviews of doctors.

Iodine is a necessary trace element for the normal functioning of the thyroid gland. The thyroid gland uses iodine for the synthesis of T3 hormones (triiodothyronine) and T4 (thyroxine), which regulate the metabolism, energy and many other functions of the body.

  • The role in the functioning of the thyroid gland: Iodine is a key component of thyroid hormones. Iodine deficiency can lead to hypothyroidism (a decrease in the function of the thyroid gland), goiter (increase in thyroid gland) and other problems.
  • Dosage: The recommended daily dose of iodine for adults is 150 μg. During pregnancy and breastfeeding, the need for iodine increases to 220-290 μg.
  • Reviews of doctors: Doctors often recommend taking iodine as a dietary supplement, especially in regions with iodine deficiency in soil and water. It is important to control the level of iodine in the body and select an individual dosage, since the excess of iodine can also be harmful to the thyroid gland. People with thyroid diseases should consult a doctor before taking iodine.

2.6. Bades with other trace elements (zinc, selenium): their influence on hormonal background, dosage, reviews of doctors.

  • Zinc:

    • Influence on the hormonal background: Zinc is involved in the synthesis of sex hormones (estrogen, progesterone and testosterone). It also affects the work of the thyroid gland and adrenal glands. Zinc deficiency can lead to a violation of the menstrual cycle, a decrease in fertility and other problems.
    • Dosage: The recommended daily zinc dose for women is 8 mg.
    • Reviews of doctors: Doctors often recommend taking zinc as a dietary supplement to maintain hormonal balance, improve the condition of the skin and strengthen immunity.
  • Selenium:

    • Influence on the hormonal background: Selenium is necessary for the normal functioning of the thyroid gland. He participates in the transformation of the hormone T4 into a hormone T3. Selena deficiency can lead to hypothyroidism and other problems with the thyroid gland.
    • Dosage: The recommended daily dose of selenium for women is 55 μg.
    • Reviews of doctors: Doctors often recommend taking selenium as a dietary supplement to maintain the health of the thyroid gland, strengthen immunity and antioxidant protection.

2.7. Review of popular dietary supplements for hormonal balance: compositions, manufacturers, efficiency (according to doctors).

(A detailed review of popular dietary supplements containing combinations of the above substances will be presented here, indicating specific compositions, manufacturers, dosages and opinions of doctors about their effectiveness based on existing clinical data and practical experience.)

Section 3: Bad for reproductive health

3.1. Preparation for pregnancy: what dietary supplements can help?

Preparing for pregnancy is an important stage that helps to improve the chances of conception and the birth of a healthy child. Reception of certain dietary supplements can help improve the reproductive health of a woman and prepare the body for pregnancy.

3.2. Folic acid: an indispensable dietary supplement for pregnant women and planning pregnancy.

Folic acid (vitamin B9) plays a key role in the formation of the fetal nervous tube in the first weeks of pregnancy. Folic acid deficiency can lead to serious congenital defects in the nervous system of the child (for example, Spina Bifida).

  • Role in the reproductive system: Folic acid is necessary for the normal development of the egg and sperm. It also participates in the process of dividing cells and the formation of DNA.
  • Dosage: The recommended daily dose of folic acid for women planning pregnancy and pregnant women is 400 mcg. In the presence of risk factors (for example, a previous pregnancy with a defect in a nervous tube in a child), a doctor can prescribe higher doses (up to 4 mg per day).
  • Reviews of doctors: Doctors strongly recommend that all women planning pregnancy start taking folic acid 1-3 months before conception and continue to take it during the first trimester of pregnancy. Folic acid is considered one of the most important dietary supplements for pregnant women and planning pregnancy.

3.3. Vitamin E: role in the reproductive system, dosage, reviews of doctors.

Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant that protects the cells from damage caused by free radicals. He also plays an important role in the reproductive system.

  • Role in the reproductive system: Vitamin E improves the blood supply to the pelvic organs, promotes the normal development of the egg and sperm. It can also improve fertility and reduce the risk of miscarriage.
  • Dosage: The recommended daily dose of vitamin E for adults is 15 mg.
  • Reviews of doctors: Doctors often recommend taking vitamin E as a dietary supplement to improve reproductive health and protect cells from oxidative stress. However, before taking vitamin E, it is necessary to consult a doctor, since high doses of vitamin E can be harmful.

3.4. Omega-3 fatty acids: effect on fertility, dosage, reviews of doctors.

Omega-3 fatty acids (EPK and DGK) play an important role in maintaining the health of the cardiovascular system, brain and reproductive system.

  • Influence on fertility: Omega-3 fatty acids improve the quality of eggs and sperm, contribute to the normal development of the fetus and reduce the risk of premature birth.
  • Dosage: The recommended daily dose of omega-3 fatty acids (EPK and DGK) for pregnant and lactating women is 200-300 mg.
  • Reviews of doctors: Doctors often recommend taking omega-3 fatty acids as a dietary supplement to improve fertility, maintain health during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Omega-3 fatty acids are considered important for the normal development of the brain and vision of the child.
