Eases menopausal hot flushes
Equol has relatively high affinity for estrogen receptor beta; hot-flush frequency and night sweats more often fall in observations of people who can make it or who take it directly. People with waves of heat who wake soaked at night more often notice flush frequency after several continuous weeks.
Supports bone-turnover balance
The same receptor path also appears in bone-turnover marker discussions, so formation and resorption signals are often more balanced. After menopause, people watching bone density whose daidzein conversion varies finish this isoflavone metabolism by taking equol directly.
How to take it?
