Enzymatic Therapy AM/PM Menopause Formula 60tablets within category: Black Cohosh
Black cohosh (Actaea racemosa, formerly Cimicifuga racemosa) is used almost exclusively as a woman's herb these days for symptoms of menopause and PMS. It's interesting, however, that a number of native American tribes and frontier doctors in the 1800's also used the plant to treat arthritic aches and pains.
Blach cohosh has been the subject of numerous human clinical trials, mostly in Germany, from as early as the mid-1900's up to the present. It is approved by the German Kommission E (their equivalent of the American Food and Drug Adminstration) to treat symptoms of PMS and menopause.
Please don't confuse Black cohosh with Blue cohosh (Caulophyllum thalictroides) -- they are entirely different herbs!
