			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hormones in general are the triggers &#8212; the catalysts &#8212; which cause the cells the body to function.</p>
<p>Estrogen molecules &#8211; hormones &#8211; are carried throughout the body by the blood stream,<br />
looking for cells with estrogen receptors.<br />
An estrogen receptor is like a door lock on a human body cell &#8212; it will only accept the proper &#8220;key&#8221;; the proper estrogen hormone molecule.</p>
<p>Many of the other human body cells have cellular receptors which are &#8220;master keyed&#8221;,<br />
i.e., receptors which are designed to accept any hormone molecule.<br />
An estrogen molecules can then attach to that cellular receptor, like a key going into a lock.</p>
<p>Once the &#8220;key&#8221; &#8211; the estrogen molecule &#8211; is attached into the cell&#8217;s &#8220;lock&#8221;,<br />
that cell is &#8220;opened&#8221; so that it can perform whatever function that particular cell is supposed to perform.<br />
When that cell has completed its function/cycle, the &#8220;key&#8221; is ejected,<br />
and that particular used up estrogen molecule is washed out of the body<br />
via the blood, liver and kidney systems.</p>
<p>With drug hormones, the body is forced to carry huge amounts of estrogen molecules which may likely never find estrogen receptors&#8230;<br />
and the good unused estrogen molecules must then be flushed out of the body.<br />
This is in addition to the liver having to extract the estrogen from the drug/pills in the first place.</p>
<p>Forcing the liver to double-process huge amounts of estrogen over an extended period of time,<br />
can damage the liver irreparably, and the kidneys.<br />
This is why usage of drug hormones is supposed to be monitored by a doctor<br />
- and why drugs are prescription items<br />
- to prevent an individual from overdosing and damaging vital organs.</p>
<p>The human body will normally try to create all the various hormones it can use,<br />
all that it needs, all of the time from the foods we eat.<br />
This is how our bodies are supposed to function, in general.</p>
<p>Herbs &#8211; flowers, berries and leaves &#8211; are food items.</p>
<p>From certain types/classifications of herbs, called phyto-estrogens, estrogens will be created to the extent that the individual body can utilize them.<br />
Phyto-estrogens are not to be confused with Xeno-estrogens<br />
(which used ti be called psuedo-estrogens), which are estrogen-like mimics<br />
that invade our bodies from various chemicals and pollutants in our environment.</p>
<p>With herbal-source estrogens, phyto-estrogens, the body will only create whatever levels of estrogen it can use at any given time, so that it is not possible to overdose in a harmful way.</p>
<p>But an individual has to ingest enough phyto-estrogenic material to create enough estrogen to make a difference, on a consistent every-day basis.</p>
<p>Traditional store-bought phyto-estrogenic herbs are not powerful enough,<br />
&#8211; not potent &#8212; enough to do the job of feminizing, unless taken every day in massive quantities.</p>
<p>It is also important to understand that there are no standards for measuring or comparing herbal-based things between brands.</p>
<p>Based on the use of Standardized herbal extracts, especially,<br />
one company&#8217;s 25mg herbal product will therefore actually have FAR more of the active ingredients - the &#8220;good stuff&#8221; &#8211; than another company&#8217;s 500mg herbal product.<br />
It is simply not possible to compare herbal things from brand to brand in any meaningful way.</p>
<p>Why do these Herbal-Source Hormones work?</p>
<p>Improvements in herbal processing technology over the past twenty years have enabled formulators to extract the active ingredients from various herbs<br />
- the &#8220;good stuff&#8221; &#8211; so that the benefits of the various herbs can be<br />
obtained without having to consume massive quantities of each herb.</p>
<p>German research has shown that the active ingredients of various phyto-estrogenic herbs,<br />
when mixed in proper ratios, became synergystic;<br />
i.e., the total mixture worked better than any of the herbs could have worked on their own.</p>
<p>Evanesce has been formulated based upon all of this research.</p>
<p>The Standardized extracts of the best available herbs,<br />
mixed in appropriate ratios,<br />
brings results which are far superior to anything available from store herbs.</p>
<p>The Evanesce formulation is a clear step above traditional herbal usage.<br />
This very unique formulations cannot be duplicated using store herbs<br />
- the herbal herbal measurement ratios in Evanesce are based on using Standardized extracts and concentrated extracts of the various herbs.</p>
<p>Many women have found Evanesce to be extremely beneficial to managing their PMS and/or menopause symptoms.</p>
