Black Cohosh Extract is obtained from the rhizomes of Cimicifuga racemosa, a medicinal herb traditionally used by Native Americans and widely recognized in Europe and North America for supporting women’s health.
Rich in triterpene glycosides (e.g., actein, cimicifugoside), Black Cohosh is primarily applied in relieving menopausal symptoms, including hot flashes, mood swings, and sleep disturbances. Clinical research suggests it may have estrogen-like activity without the risks associated with hormone replacement therapy (HRT).
