Hot Flash

Blender’s Notes Hot Flash:

Steep Me Self-Help Tea combinations are a wonderful way to get health benefits outside of the standard tea leaf. This tea will help was developed to help with perimenopause or menopause hot flashes that can be one of the most uncomfortable and frustrating symptoms. The sudden surges of heat and sweating can disrupt the simplest daily tasks, leaving you feeling drained and overwhelmed. A hot flash is a feeling of sudden, intense heat on the upper body that lasts anywhere from 30 seconds to several minutes. Hot flashes are thought to occur when a drop in estrogen (or changes in other hormones) disrupts the body’s natural thermostat, known as the hypothalamus. Other symptoms include sweating, reddening of the skin, headaches, lightheadedness, and heart palpitations. Hot flashes, also known as vasomotor symptoms (VMS), are commonly associated with menopause or Perimenopause but can also be caused by medication side effects, thyroid or pituitary problems, and certain cancers or cancer treatments. Even males with low testosterone can experience hot flashes. Hot flashes are one of the most common symptoms of menopause. In fact, more than 80% of people experience hot flashes during menopause, generally when menopause is first starting. Hot flashes during menopause are due to a decrease in the hormone estrogen. Estrogen has many effects on the human brain and, along with the hormone testosterone, helps regulate a part of the brain called the hypothalamus that acts as the body’s thermostat. When estrogen levels drop, the imbalance in hormones causes the hypothalamus to think that the body is hotter than it is. The hypothalamus responds by activating your sweat glands, increasing your heart rate, and widening blood vessels near the surface of the skin to cool the body down. The sudden flush of heat usually starts in the face or chest and can spread throughout the entire body. Episodes can last anywhere from a few seconds to up to 30 minutes. Hot flashes tend to start abruptly and end just as quickly. When hot flashes occur at night, they are commonly referred to as night sweats. Hot Flashes: 10 Causes and How to Cope (verywellhealth.com)

Hot Flash was built to use in the Morning and Drank All Day for the tea or Capsules taken throughout the day. Hot Flash is meant to help minimize the changes to you through hormone imbalances. The tea or capsules can be taken proactively if you can predict those moments when you know the Hot Flashes will appear. Many women use it consistently before bed as a nighttime to keep those sneaky trivial things from appearing…if the symptoms disappear, discontinue use. Then use it as needed!

In this blend we started with Peppermint. Peppermint has a cooling effect that comes from its high menthol content, and it reduces tension in the body, and some classify it as a nervine i.e., an herb that supports the nervous system. Given that hot flashes are linked to an imbalance in the nervous system, this may be yet another reason peppermint soothes hot flashes. Next, we added in Sage. Sage is used as a natural remedy for hot flashes and is classified as an astringent, which means it regulates fluids – including sweat – in the body which is helpful for Hot Flashes. Black Cohosh because it is known to help reduce hot flashes and night sweats. Licorice Root because it contains isoflavones that activate estrogen receptors. As a result, licorice root helps to increase estrogen levels and in fact reduce hot flashes. We also included angelica. Angelica contains phytoestrogens, which are plant-based compounds that can mimic the effects of estrogen in the body which may help regulate hormonal imbalances and help with hot flashes and mood changes. Next, we added Rosemary. Rosemary helps with the symptoms of low estrogen such as hot flashes and sleep problems and may increase the liver’s ability to metabolize estrogen. Nettles because it contains vitamin K which can show a decrease in hot flashes as well as an improvement in quality of life. Nettles can reduce the intensity of menopausal hormonal changes and, support women’s health overall due to nettle’s diverse nutritional composition of iron, magnesium, manganese and calcium, and Antioxidants like flavonoids and phenolic acids. Finally, we added in Motherwort. Motherwort can help alleviate menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes, anxiety, and heart palpitations making them easier to manage.
