"Sometimes, Menopause Makes Me Feel Like I've Been Hit By A Mack Truck!"
But Menopause Doesn't Have To Feel Like This . . .
Getting older should be filled with an enjoyment of life and confidence that only experience and wisdom can bring.
Not battles with haywire hormones.
Unfortunately conventional approaches like hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and even its natural alternative, bio-identical hormones, are based on a flawed assumption . . .
These misguided approaches assume your estrogen levels are low. And that's what's causing you so much discomfort.
High Estrogen Levels - Not Low Ones - May Be The Problem
Yes, estrogen production does end up dropping to only 40-60% during menopause.
But women still make estrogen. Menopause expert, Dr. John Lee, author of Dr. John Lee's Hormone Balance Made Simple, pointed out that according to most published research on estrogen levels over the past 25 years, two-thirds of women up to age 80 make all the estrogen they need.
Even more intriguing, sometimes later in life estrogen production increases in spurts that are even more intense than estrogen production during adolescence - A last heroic hurrah before your ovaries change their role in your body.
What does drop dramatically is your body's production of the hormone progesterone. This hormone balances out the effects of estrogen. Without enough progesterone, your body's production of estrogen, even reduced, can be too much. And this leads to what many integrative health practitioners call "estrogen dominance".
During menopause, your problems are not brought on by too little estrogen – but by too much.
As Dr. Sherrill Sellman explains in her book Hormone Heresy, "Instead of estrogen playing its essential role within the well-balanced symphony of steroid hormones in a woman's body, it has begun to overshadow the other players, creating biochemical dissonance."
A Wholesome Solution To Estrogen Dominance: The Pomegranate
Over several millennia, with extensive testing and refinement, nature has already created the perfect ally in maintaining healthy estrogen levels . . .
The pomegranate.
For centuries, healers have intuited that pomegranate made a perfect match for woman's health concerns because of the way its seeds encased in ruby flesh reminded them of women's fertile stash of eggs and her blood-rich uterus.
Now scientists and doctors are starting to verify that, yes, this is perhaps the ideal fruit when it comes to women's health.
Here's why:
Pomegranate Irons Out Hormonal Imbalance
The pomegranate helps balance your hormones with a more diverse range of healthy phytoestrogens (the estrogens from plants) than any other botanical source.
These weaker plant estrogens block the effects of more powerful human-produced estrogens by fitting into the cell receptor sites for estrogen. The weak, safe estrogens can fit in these specialized "keyholes". But they can't turn the ignition on like the more potent estrogens do.
The result? Since the weak estrogens occupy the cell receptors, this blocks the powerful estrogens. These harmful estrogens are thus made powerless.
Pomegranate's most prevalent estrogen, 17-alpha estradiol, is the weakest form of estrogen. It acts as an effective blocker of the strong and dangerous estrogen 17-beta estradiol.
Pomegranate's Apigenin Supports Healthy Progesterone Levels
Pomegranate also contains a special compound, apigenin. Apigenin seems to act like progesterone, helping to counterbalance estrogen's activities. It may also help prevent the breakdown of progesterone, further preserving your progesterone levels.
By helping your body to maintain progesterone levels, apigenin seems to help keep estrogen in check, supporting your cholesterol health, healthy fat metabolism, a good libido, strong bones and overall health.
Pomegranate Has Some Of The Most Powerful Antioxidants Out There
Pomegranate gives your body more antioxidants than perhaps any other plant on the planet.
And its antioxidants have been tested and found to be more powerful than those of red wine, green tea, blueberries and acai.
On top of pomegranate's hormone regulating effects, its antioxidants support healthy skin, a healthy cardiovascular system, brain health, immune system health, digestive health, and a healthy blood sugar metabolism.
And for you wise women, concerned about safety . . .
There Are No Known Side Effects To Pomegranate
Says Dr. Dean Ornish, MD, pomegranate and heart health researcher and founder of The Spectrum Lifestyle Program,
"The only side effects of pomegranate juice are good ones . . . If it were a drug, people would be rushing to study it."
By tapping into the rich chemistry of the pomegranate, BalancePom Plus gives your body a safe, natural and healthy way to support hormonal balance.
Plus it goes one step further . . .
BalancePom Plus Adds 3 Additional Herbs To Help You Manage Menopausal Change
The pomegranate provides a rich mix of compounds for countering hormonal imbalance. All in one plant.
However, sometimes you need some extra support . . .
For that reason, we've selected 3 additional herbs, known for their role in women's health, to provide extra sustenance as you navigate this life change . . .
Asparagus Root Helps Smooth Out Your Emotions And Get Rid Of Excess Fluids
Asparagus has been used for centuries as a cleansing herb to remove excess water from the body. It contains substantial amounts of folic acid, flavonoids and other essential compounds.
Due to the presence of steroidal glycosides, it is thought to stimulate hormone production, and possibly influence emotions. Perhaps this is why traditional herbalists believe the herb promotes feelings of love and compassion.
Schizandra Berry Helps Your Body Adapt To Stress And Supports A Healthy Intimate Life
Schizandra is a hardy, deciduous shrub. Its Chinese name, Wu Wei Zi, translates as "five flavor fruit." It has been used in traditional medicine since antiquity. Classified as an adaptogen and tonic, Schizandra seems to help your body manage changes and adapt to stress.
Folklore praises Schizandra Berry for its positive effect on libido and stamina.
Note: Pregnant women should not take Schizandra Berry.
Sweet Angelica Root Supports Women's Reproductive Health
Angelica root has a long history in traditional natural medicine. Angelica stems have a somewhat sweet flavor, and were often candied to eat as a treat.
It is considered to have a "warm nature," and is used to treat symptoms of the female reproductive system. It is also called the "female ginseng," because of its reputation for promoting good sexual health.
All these gentle herbs, plus the pomegranate synergy of BalancePom, are wrapped neatly together in BalancePom Plus.
Working together, they can help you ease through menopausal change with energy, comfort and calm.
Get Pomegranate's Womanly-Wise, Hormone-Harmonizing, Menopause-Mastering Powers And More with BalancePom Plus
BalancePom Plus brings you the entire wholesome hormone-balancing power of the pomegranate plus more.
v It brings together pomegranate's sophisticated estrogenic compounds and progesterone-supporting apigenin that can help you walk the tightrope of hormones without a single wobble.
v It gives you powerful antioxidant protection. With an array of flavonoids, it protects your tissues – from inside your arteries to your skin on the outside.
v Unlike many pomegranate supplements, BalancePom Plus contains extracts from the pomegranate seeds, fermented pomegranate juice, leaves and peel. Studies published in the Journal of Agriculture and Food Chemistry have shown that extracts that combined the whole pomegranate were 20% higher in antioxidant content than ones that just contained the pulp. Further research has also shown that the majority of estrogenic compounds are in its seed oil and seed.
v BalancePom Plus uses fermented pomegranate juice. By fermenting the juice, we break the bonds between the sugars and the polyphenols in the pomegranate, so your body doesn't have to. This makes it easier for your body to use them.
v BalancePom Plus uses 100% pomegranate extract. Many supplements substitute ellagic acid for real pomegranate. A 2008 study conducted by University of California researchers testing 27 pomegranate supplements found that only 5 had the typical pomegranate tannin profile.
v BalancePom Plus includes the special support of the 3 herbs, asparagus root, schizandra berry and angelica root. These 3 herbs provide additional flavonoids and nutrition. They support your emotions, your libido and your reproductive health. And they help you defuse the stress of menopausal change.
With BalancePom Plus You're Giving Your Body
v A natural and wholesome way to balance hormones. Instead of the crude creations made in a lab over the last couple of decades, BalancePom gives you nature's sophisticated, field-tested-and-true research that has yielded the pomegranate.
v Relief like a cool glass of water when your body's on fire. Anxiety, mood swings, hot flashes and night sweats are alleviated by this womanly-wise fruit.
v Energy and vibrancy that say's "age is just a number". You gain a lively libido, beautiful skin and energy that nixes the idea of being "over the hill"

Frequently Asked Questions
Your questions are important to us!
We have put together a list of some of the questions people ask us about our products. We hope this section is helpful to you. If you have any questions that aren't answered here, please complete our contact form and we'll respond to your question quickly.
I've seen other dietary supplements that feature pomegranate. Is there anything unique about Pomegranate Health’s supplements?
Yes! Pomegranate Health is unique because our supplements are made of 100% pure pomegranate. There is nothing but pomegranate in our capsules. Great care is given to separating and re-combining the elements of the original fruit, and we are able to isolate the important compounds through a very gentle and natural extraction process that is free of harmful chemicals. The resulting synergistic effect of our pomegranate powders is unmatched by any other pomegranate-based supplement available today. Furthermore, we have gone to great lengths to be able to proudly state that our products are 100% vegetarian.
Can't I get all the potential health benefits of a pomegranate just from eating the fruit or drinking the juice?
No. The beauty of our formulas is that they maximize and re-combine the natural powers of pomegranate through a carefully controlled process that is based on years of scientific research. A synergy is achieved that is not possible simply by eating the fruit or drinking the juice. This is not to say that the fruit and juice are not beneficial on their own; they certainly are good for you! Our formulas, however, amplify that goodness and harness it into standardized supplements that you can easily take every day of the year.
When can I expect to notice results from taking BalancePom or BalancePom Plus?
Women experiencing the symptoms of menopause may notice results within the first two weeks of taking BalancePom or BalancePom Plus, but ongoing benefits may not be realized for one to two months.
Is there scientific research to back up your claims about pomegranates?
Yes, there is a wealth of exciting research from around the world supporting the claims that pomegranates are good for the cardiovascular system and that they contain rare estrogenic compounds that are beneficial for hormonal health in women. Other studies indicate that pomegranates can improve the lipid profile of patients with diabetes. Please refer to the research section of our website for more information.
Can Pomegranate Health supplements be used effectively with other supplements?
Yes, our products can be used safely with other dietary supplements. Nonetheless, it is always advisable to consult a qualified healthcare professional before combining supplements and/or medications.
I've tried menopause supplements with soy and clover. What's different about pomegranate?
The estrogenic compounds found in pomegranates are milder than those found in soy and clover. Pomegranates also contain rare compounds that are not found at all in soy or clover. The estrogens in soy and clover come from isoflavones, which are increasingly seen by scientists as a “two-edged sword” that can actually increase the risk of breast cancer. The pomegranate’s estrogenic compounds, in contrast, come from flavonols and flavones, which are not believed to promote any forms of cancer.
Are there any known side effects from your pomegranate supplements?
No, our supplements have no known side effects.
I'm a vegan. Are your supplements truly free of any animal products or by-products?
Yes, our products are absolutely free of any animal based ingredients or fillers. The encapsulation and packaging machinery is thoroughly cleaned of any residue before coming in contact with our powders. Even the capsule itself is 100% vegetarian.
I'm diabetic. Is it safe for me to take your supplements?
For specific medical questions, please consult your physician. But you should know that our supplements are virtually sugar free. Furthermore, research indicates that pomegranate compounds may help improve the lipid profile of patients with diabetes.
Do you use any harmful chemicals when you prepare your pomegranate supplements?
No. We are proud to say that no chemicals are used at any time in the production of any of our products. We use only gentle, natural extraction processes in order to retain the wholeness of the actual fruit.
