Chaste Tree ST

More information on this plant

Chaste tree berry, also known as Vitex agnus-castus, has been traditionally used for centuries, particularly in women's health. The berries of this plant contain various active compounds, such as flavonoids, iridoids, and essential oils, which contribute to its therapeutic properties. One of the primary uses of chaste tree berry is to support hormonal balance, especially in alleviating symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD). It is believed to work by influencing the pituitary gland, which regulates the production of hormones such as prolactin. Lowering prolactin levels can help reduce symptoms like breast tenderness, mood swings, and menstrual irregularities.

In addition to its benefits for PMS and PMDD, chaste tree berry is also used to manage symptoms of menopause, such as hot flashes and mood disturbances. Some studies suggest that it may aid in the treatment of conditions like infertility and acne, which are influenced by hormonal imbalances. Furthermore, its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties contribute to overall health by reducing inflammation and protecting cells from oxidative stress. While chaste tree berry is generally considered safe for most people, it is essential to use it under the guidance of a healthcare professional, particularly for individuals with hormone-sensitive conditions or those taking other medications.
