Did you know the skin can absorb certain nutrients? This soothing, fragrant
product provides a steady supply of wild yam and soy extracts, which have
been used by women for decades to support feminine health. This supplement
uses the most effective delivery system available.
Because a woman's system is subject to natural fluctuations throughout
the month, many women are prone to imbalances that can cause a variety
of problems and make day-to-day living difficult. As women age, these
same imbalances are often implicated in even more serious health concerns
relating to a weakening of the structural system. For years there was
little that could be done to effectively ease these problems.
Scientists have now discovered a compound found in the Mexican wild yam.
Unicity's exciting Wild Yam Cream provides that compound in a soothing
transdermal emollient.*
Because the skin easily absorbs nutrients through the pores, the topical
application of Unicity's Wild Yam Cream provides a steady supply of wild
yam extract that maximizes the body's assimilation of its active ingredients.

free radical damage and rejuvenates skin cells. It is a revitalizing herbal
extract that contains a high amount of linoleic acid that regulates cellular

primrose sports attractive yellow flowers that produce the tiny black

conditions. Rich in unsaturated fatty acids that are readily absorbed

Asia. An herb that supports the female reproductive system.

RESEARCH BRIEF
Beginning around age 40 - 50 in women, the ovaries begin producing lower
levels of estrogens and progesterone. These reductions lead to marked
physiological responses in the body which are referred to collectively
as menopause. These responses include "hot flashes," irritability, fatigue,
anxiety and various other symptoms.
Consumption of certain foods has been shown to decrease many post-menopausal
symptoms. Soybeans, for example, are particularly high in compounds called
isoflavones. The isoflavones genistein and diadzien significantly decrease
LDL cholesterol and significantly increased HDL/LDL cholesterol ratios.
Soy isoflavones increase bile acid excretion and affects metabolism of
cholesterol in the liver.
Other plant-derived compounds such as saponins may have similar properties.
Saponins are found in many grains and vegetables and have long been known
to have strong biological activity. Saponins are broken down in the digestive
tract into steroid-like compounds and sugars.
