Mycocholest - blended according to Ling Dong Jue Jing San's recipe, this blend contains phytoestrogens that contribute to hormonal balance in menopausal women. The product contains, among other things, the mushroom reishi which supports the normal function of the immune system. In addition, the following ingredients are included: red clover, bee pollen, lemon balm, Chinese angelica, muira puama, green tea, royal jelly and grape thistle.

Staying in the world of mushrooms for a while, reishi is good to combine with Cordyceps, which TCM says is the greatest "recharger" of energy, while strengthening Yang and essence of Ledvin and Yin Plic. And if we add the Mycostress blend to the third, we can help harmonize our psyche with the help of the Hericium mushroom and other medicines.

For mental exhaustion, overwork, forgetfulness, insomnia and night sweats, when the Heart and Kidneys need to be strengthened, it is good to reach for the Tian Wang Bu Xin Dan blend also known as Heavenly Empress.

Zhi Bai Di Huang Wan, or Fresh Breeze, has a similar effect, and in addition to hot flashes and heavy night sweats, it also targets urinary dysfunction, hot bones and dry mucous membranes, especially in the lower body.

For dryness problems, one can also reach for Kun Bao Tang, or Blooming Garden, which, in addition to mucous membranes, also targets dryness of the skin, eyes and throat, plus mood swings, irritability, headaches and tinnitus.

As for traditional menopause, there is also a blend called Geng Nian An Pian, which, according to the hint contained in the English equivalent of the name Hot Waves, can be used to support hot flashes, sweating, tinnitus, restlessness, anxiety and insomnia.

As menopause does not only affect women in their fifties, but can also occur prematurely, formulas have been developed to help these women. These include Er Xian Tang for Energy Balancing, which is designed to help harmonise hormonal imbalances that manifest as coldness in the lower body and heat on top. For manifestations such as weakness and pain in the loins, feeling of increased temperature, restless legs, weak will and fear, the Zuo Gui Wan blend poetically nicknamed Left Bean may come in handy.

Not forgetting men, a special blend has been developed for them too - Mycoprosten. This is intended as a prevention to support the proper functioning of the prostate gland. It contains a mixture of vital mushrooms and herbs that is suitable for every man who has passed the age of fifty. At the same time, we also recommend a regular check-up of the prostate by a doctor.

Mycoprosten benefits from the positive effects of vital mushroom Maitake, stinging nettle, serenoi creeper, zinc, selenium and vitamin E. Their synergistic action helps natural immunity, protection of cells from oxidative stress, normal functioning of the urinary system and contributes to the maintenance of adequate testosterone levels in the blood.

If there are already specific difficulties with insomnia, irritability, mental instability, heart palpitations and dry mucous membranes, then the herbal blend Suan Zao Ren Tang Jia Wei is suitable. It is sometimes known in the country as Kindly Grandfather, which is not to say that this grandfather cannot be a vital and charismatic gentleman in his prime.
