Black Cohosh Root got me through menopause without 1 hot flash. I would drink an infusion of 32 oz per week. I knew I had had the right amount when I got a headache from it - so that was probably too much, and may have caused Liver Damage - but at the time I had no idea what I was doing... but it has kept my uterine wall strong and kept me from experiencing hormonal imbalance during "the change".
I know I am not following the directions - and that's because I don't have time to do so, just wanted to share my amazing experience with this herb.
