THE BIG PICTURE
Menopause is inevitable. Navigating it blind is not.
-
Perimenopause starts years before your last period, with hormone fluctuations triggering up to 50 symptoms like hot flushes, mood swings, sleep issues, and brain fog.
- Menopause itself is a one-day milestone (12 months without a period) — but the effects can linger, often lasting 4–10+ years.
- Postmenopause brings lower hormone levels and new health risks like osteoporosis, cardiovascular concerns, and vaginal changes.
This guide is here to help you cut through the noise. It's your resource for trustworthy, fact-based support as your body transitions through the stages of menopause.

How Meno Essential + Compares to Menopause Supplements
Turn 40, and suddenly your Instagram feed is flooded with menopause "miracle cures"? Pills promising instant relief. Powders claiming to "balance your hormones." But take a closer look, and the science is nowhere to be found—just vague claims and under-dosed ingredients.
Women deserve better.
When we couldn't find a natural option on the market backed by gold standard clinical trials, we created Meno Essential +, and with it a new category in menopause care. A clinically tested, science-backed formula designed to deliver real results. No gimmicks. No guesswork. Just ingredients proven to work. Here's how it compares to the supplements and non-hormonal prescription drugs on the market.
01
The Problem with Most Menopause Supplements
Most menopause supplements on the market follow the same formula:
- Long ingredient lists—but at doses too low to match clinical studies.
- Generic herbs—instead of patented extracts with proven effects.
- Vague claims—unsupported by high-quality clinical research.
Many products rely on marketing over science, using under-dosed or ineffective forms of ingredients that don’t deliver real results.
02
How Meno Essential + Works Differently
Meno Essential + isn’t just another menopause supplement—it’s a science-backed, clinically validated approach to menopause relief.
Powered by Phytoestrogens and Clinically Tested Extracts
- Lifenol® (Hops extract) – A potent phytoestrogen standardised for prenylnaringenin (8-PN), the compound responsible for its hormone-balancing effects. Many brands use generic Hops extract, but without standardisation, effectiveness is unpredictable.
- Affron® (Saffron extract) – Affron® is the only clinically proven Saffron extract shown to boost mood, relieve mild anxiety and improve sleep.
- Chasteberry (Vitex) – Traditionally used for hormonal balance, particularly during perimenopause when fluctuations are at their peak.
- P5P (Activated B6) – A bioavailable form of vitamin B6, supporting cognitive function and neurotransmitter health.

03
Why Standardised, Patented Ingredients Matter
Most menopause supplements use generic plant extracts, assuming all sources are equal. They’re not. Standardisation ensures that each dose contains consistent levels of active compounds—the difference between real results and wasted money.
04
Clinical Trials: The Biolae Difference
Unlike most brands, Biolae uses gold-standard clinical research to prove effectiveness.
- 90% of women experienced an improvement in menopause symptoms1
- 75% of women experienced a reduction in hot flushes1
- 85% of women experienced an improvement in mood2
Unlike open-label studies (where participants know what they’re taking), these double-blind, placebo-controlled trials eliminate bias, ensuring real, measurable results.
05
Transparency in Sourcing and Testing
Many brands don’t disclose where their ingredients come from or how they test them. Biolae does.
- Third-party tested for purity and potency—before and after production.
- Traceable ingredients—sourced from trusted suppliers who meet strict quality standards.
- Fully transparent research—every claim is backed by published, peer-reviewed clinical studies.
06
What You Can Expect from Us
Most menopause supplements rely on generic herbs, low doses, and weak research. Meno Essential + is different. With Biolae, you can expect:
- Clinically studied, patented ingredients at effective doses
- Proven results from double-blind, placebo-controlled trials
- Targeted support for hot flushes, mood, sleep, and cognitive function
- Full transparency in research, sourcing, and testing
