Motherwort Extract by Herb Pharm may work to maintain optimal endocrine function. This is important because your endocrine system is comprised of glands—such as the thyroid‚ adrenal‚ and pituitary glands—that release hormones into the bloodstream in order to manage essential bodily functions like digestion‚ glucose metabolism‚ and body temperature.
Notably‚ motherwort—which is also known as leonurus cardiaca—is an herb that may help address certain symptoms associated with hyperthyroidism (an overactive thyroid)‚ such as a rapid heartbeat‚ anxiety‚ or trouble sleeping. This is largely because motherwort extract contains an alkaloid called leonurine‚ which may act to maintain healthy circulation and lower your heart rate by relaxing smooth muscles and encouraging the blood vessels to open up.
Finally‚ motherwort extract may promote female reproductive health. Notably‚ it may help address delayed periods while working to alleviate cramps and some other signs of premenstrual syndrome (PMS).
Each bottle of Herb Pharm’s Motherwort Extract contains one fluid ounce of solution‚ which is prepared with the hand-harvested leaves and flowering tops of organically grown leonurus cardiaca plants.
