How long will it take for my menopause symptoms to improve? 
You may notice improvements within a few weeks. But for some women, menopausal symptoms should begin to subside within 4-8 weeks. Symptoms are, of course, unique to the individual.

How do I know if my metabolism isn’t functioning at its peak?
Metabolic rate varies from person-to-person and can reduce depending on age, underlying medical conditions, extreme dieting, hormones, etc. It is important to consult with your healthcare practitioner to assess your individual metabolic function, however, some signs that your metabolism may be functioning slower than normal are:

— Fatigue & lethargy
— Weight changes
— Hair loss
— Mood changes
— Dry or troubled skin
— Brittle or weak nails
— Cognitive difficulty
— Sugar cravings

How long will it take for my metabolism to improve? 
Results will vary from person to person as every individual is different, however, metabolism may improve after 30-60 days with consistent daily supplementation.

How long will it take for my hair health to improve? 
Within the initial 30 days, SWIISH Hair & Metabolism™ will start to lay the foundations of its work as your body begins absorbing and utilising the supplement. Results may vary from person-to-person, but from 30-60 days is when customers typically start to see results with hair growth and health. Then, by 90 days most customers experience noticeable results and sustained differences in their hair health, as well as additional benefits including nail health.

Can I take Hair + Metabolism to help with my thyroid condition? 
SWIISH Hair & Metabolism™ supports healthy thyroid gland function and healthy thyroid hormones. But where a thyroid condition exists, we suggest seeking medical advice.

Can I have these products while pregnant or breastfeeding?
We don’t recommend SWIISH Peri + Meno Relief or Hair + Metabolism during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Please refer to the nutritional information & ingredients list.

Is there any benefit to taking Peri + Meno Relief if you’re not in menopause (excluding pregnancy & breastfeeding)?
Yes — this formulation is rich in antioxidants and also supports a range of other areas of health including menstrual health/PMS symptoms, immune support, wound healing, sleep disturbances, nervousness, irritability, sluggish digestion, oral health and blood sugar regulation.

Will it help me if I’m in the middle of a hot flush?
The best approach is a consistent one — with daily use of Peri + Meno Relief you will notice a decrease in menopausal symptoms. It’s not like a headache tablet, it’s a supplement — consistent use yields best results.

Can you have Peri + Meno Relief if you’re also on HRT?
Black cohosh can interact with some medications, including hormone replacement therapy, and may cause side effects or reduce the effectiveness of the medication. It is important to consult with a healthcare provider before taking black cohosh if you are on hormone replacement therapy or any other medications. Your healthcare provider can advise you on whether it is safe for you to take black cohosh while on hormone replacement therapy or if there are any potential risks or interactions to be aware of.

PERI + MENO RELIEF — Night Sweats  
A night sweat is a hot flush that happens at night as a result of changing hormones. It is the sudden flushing of warmth in the upper body, often causing excessive sweating and they may disrupt your sleep. Jujube (Ziziphus jujuba var. spinosa) is traditionally used to prevent excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) and spontaneous night sweating. Similarly, Sage (Salvia officinalis) is traditionally used to reduce excessive perspiration and sweats associated with menopause. Likewise, Black cohosh (Actaea racemosa root) is frequently used for the relief of menopausal complaints such as night sweats.

PERI + MENO RELIEF — Hot Flushes  
A hot flush is the sudden feeling of warmth in the upper body and is usually most intense over the face, neck and chest, often causing excessive sweating. Sage (Salvia officinalis) is frequently used in herbal medicine to help reduce hot flushes and/or night sweats associated with menopause. Similarly, Black cohosh (Actaea racemosa root) is often used for the relief of menopausal complaints such as hot flushes and profuse sweating.

PERI + MENO RELIEF — Mental & Cognitive Health
One of the most common symptoms reported in menopause is a deficit in attention, processing speed and memory which often results in a lack of focus and forgetfulness. Siberian Ginseng (Eleutherococcus senticosus) has been shown to improve mental performance and support mental exhaustion, resulting in increased concentration along with improved attention and mental speed. Similarly, Zinc has been studied for its contribution to normal cognitive function and memory formation.

HAIR + METABOLISM — Metabolism 
Metabolism refers to the process in which your body converts what you consume into energy. Metabolic rate is the speed at which it does this, measured by the amount of energy per unit of time that a person is able to process to keep their body functioning. Metabolism is often thought of as being interchangeable with the word digestion, but it is actually far more complex and widespread than that. Metabolism exists in every cell in the body, as each unique cell requires energy to do its job. Maintaining a good metabolic rate means each cell in the body is able to yield enough energy to carry out its role in the body – whether it’s a cell in skeletal muscle, the lungs, skin, gastrointestinal tract, etc. There are a number of factors that can slow your metabolic rate, they vary from stress and fad dieting to age, muscle mass, hormonal factors and more. Metabolic rate will also vary from person to person. When metabolism is slower, and/or you consume more calories than your body is able to convert to energy and use, the body is designed to store this excess energy in adipose tissue (fat cells). There are a number of nutritional minerals and vitamins that can support metabolism. Biotin is one of them, as it helps convert fats and carbohydrates (macronutrients from food) into energy. Beyond this, biotin is involved in energy–yielding metabolism and subsequent energy production.

Riboflavin is predominantly found as an integral component of coenzymes, flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) and flavin mononucleotide (FMN). FAD is an important component of the respiratory chain, closely involved in energy generation. It assists with releasing energy from food and moreover helps convert carbohydrates into adenosine triphosphate (ATP) — the carrier of energy within cells. As a B Vitamin, riboflavin is also involved in other metabolic energy–producing processes, including the citric acid cycle, as well as contributing to iron transportation and metabolism within the body.

Iodine is a trace element that supports thyroid function and energy production. The main function of iodine is to synthesise thyroid hormones triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4). Thyroid hormones are involved in stimulating basal metabolic rate, as well as the production of body heat. Beyond this, thyroid hormones are also involved in cellular oxygen consumption/use used to produce ATP (which in turn supports metabolic rate).

HAIR + METABOLISM — Hair Health
Zinc has been studied for its ability to contribute to the maintenance of normal and healthy hair. Similarly, biotin (Vitamin B7) also assists in hair maintenance, growth and strength through its contribution to hair follicle formation. Beyond this, biotin assists with the regrowth of lost hair. Riboflavin (Vitamin B2) supports hair health as its flavoproteins (the building blocks of riboflavin) are essential for the growth of healthy hair. As a whole, riboflavin is necessary for the normal development and repair of numerous body tissues, hair included.
