Want To Stop Hot Flashes Naturally? This May Be Your Answer

You may have never heard of this herb; that's OK, keep an open mind to what you may need to stop hot flashes naturally. Now this herb is Oat Straw. Honestly, I am in total awe of the huge number of herbs reported to lessen or provide relief. I don't know about you but I know that Mother Nature is pretty incredible.

So let me tell you what I've learned about this Oat and how it can be used to help you reduced or put an end to your menopausal discomfort.

It is also known as Avena sativa, i.e., meaning nourishing and cultivating, has numerous therapeutic properties and use. It is an annual grass and is in flower during June and July while the seed from the plant ripen from August to October. When the seed is harvested and dried it has a texture similar to flour and has a creamy flavor. The ripe dry stems are used for making the tea or infusion. Oat Straw is also used as a food crop.

Oat Straw reportedly has aided in the treatment of menopause related depression, memory loss, restless legs, or anxiety. It nourishes and balances the hormonal system. Also it is excellent for supporting against osteoporosis which is a common concern among menopausal women. It also aids in the building of strong bones, mental clarity, powerful nervine, i.e., acts therapeutically upon the nerves which is welcomed during the overwhelming challenges of menopause.

A note, after gaining insight into the benefits of this incredible herb I decided to visit my local health food store with the intention of trying it out for myself. By the way, I must admit I have a love affair with my local health food store because I can buy many of the herbs in bulk.

While there my holistic nutritionist informed me of other health benefits of the herb. The benefits work to support menopausal women in the reduction of osteoporosis, depression and nervous exhaustion. In addition, my nutritionist shared with me additional benefits of the herb. Some of the other benefits are boosting the immune system, building bones, supporting pain relief, and lessening those horrific panic attacks while reducing anxiety which are all too commonplace with women who experience menopause.

Additionally, I learned from the information I gained from my visit to the health food store that the Oat is rich in calcium and magnesium. Also, it can be used for both physical and nervous fatigue and is helpful for depression which are common complaints of menopausal women.. Oat Straw also contains B-complex vitamins, silica, calcium,and vitamin A. It seems that Oat Straw is excellent for overall mental and physical well-being...yep! Oak Straw is another gift from nature to keep our bodies, mind and spirit functioning optimally....thank you Mother Nature for looking out for us.

Oak Straw can be taken as an alcohol tincture, as a tea, or even in your bath. For the bath you would use approximately 1 pound Oat Straw to 2 quarts boiling water and leave for 30 minutes. Initially, I plan to use Oat Straw in my bath in an effort to achieve the ultimate in relaxation as well as in tea form.

There are no known drugs or nutrient interaction associated with the use of Oat Straw.

To your excellent health,
