The nutraceutical is Belle Dame or Estrosalus as it is known in different markets, contains four medicinal herbs - soy isoflavone, black cohosh, chasteberry and evening primrose oil extract.
It is marketed as a women’s health supplement to relieve menopausal symptoms, menstrual symptoms, improve skin health and general well-being.
