The cat in the hat is one smart cat, he knows that a good set of teeth aren’t just a timeless necessity, they are indicators of what’s going on in our whole body.   Did you know that women are especially vulnerable to adverse oral health during menopause?

We know that everybody will respond differently to the fluctuation of hormones in their body during menopause. Most of us have heard about the hot sweats – but, a lesser known side-effect is the irritation and potential for bone decay that happens in the mouth as a result of menopause.

Menopause can wreak havoc with the balance of hormones in the female body and can manifest in many ways; including in the teeth and gums which can suddenly become prone to increased sensitivity and inflammation.  Understanding that these issues are related to changing and imbalanced hormones is the key to finding a solution. 

It’s not just the mouth that responds to hormone swings; some of the most common physiological effects of menopause can be exhausting with many women enduring sleepless nights, hot flushes and on-going nervous tension.

There is a solution that may ease the discomfort many women experience during menopause. Our Fontanella Menopause Formula is developed with premium ingredients that can to boost your energy levels and generally, increase wellbeing.  We cultivate the highest-grade Black Cohosh, a natural herb that has been used for centuries to moderate oestrogen levels, add in Panax Ginseng, a renowned Korean herb know to reduce mood swings, Vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant and Sage Extract which relives hot flushes and bleeding irregularities to create a powerful, one a day supplement that acts to balance hormones, moods and body temperature.
