Tests carried out on Eu Yan Sang Menoease Pills over a three-year period by professors from the Epithelial Cell Biology Research Center of The Chinese University of Hong Kong have revealed the following pharmalogical actions:

• The pills directly or indirectly modulate the hypothalamus - pituary - ovary axis.
• They increase the level of endogenous estrogen in mature women, reducing the risk of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women.
• They improve the cardiovascular function through vaso-relaxing, antiplatelets and fat-reducing effects, thus preventing the development of hypertension and thrombosis.
• They promote the secretions of the gastrointestinal tract and thus improving the immune systems of postmenopausal women.
• They raise the leukocyte distribution profile of mature females, thus improving the immune systems of postmenopausal women.

Estrogen plays an important role in overall body function and the prevention of aging. The ability of Menoease to restore estrogen production in the body, as well as its effect in a range of body functions suggest that it may restore nature's balance in the body, maintain health and youth after menopause.
