• Dong Quai-Balance hormones, assists breast enlargement, improves gland function activities

• Fennel-Promotes milk production, nutrient rich for NBE growth, stimulates the growth of breast tissue

• Fenugreek-Prolactin source, phytoestrogen, adaptogen, lowers blood sugars (caution)
  

• Flax-Phytoestrogen, increases SHBG, source of omega-3 fatty acids, anti-estrogenic activity/aromatase
  

• Goats rue-Builds breast tissue and increases milk supply
  

• Hops-estrogen receptors alpha ER-a (which stimulates breast growth), increases SHBG which binds free testosterone

• Red clover-Minor aromatase inhibitor, highly estrogenic, Binds to alpha estrogen receptor alpha (ER-a)
  

• Red raspberry--Balance hormones, promotes breast health
  

• Red Reishi-Significantly reduces levels of 5-alpha reductase (DHT)
  

• Saw palmetto-DHT inhibiting effect, acts on progesterone receptors (causing a reduction in estrogen levels)

• Shatavari-Phytoestrogen, normalizes estrogen levels, prolactin source, adaptogen
  

• Senna-To increase absorption and effectiveness of herbs, eliminates toxins
  

• Spearmint-Anti-androgenic properties, reduces the level of free testosterone in the blood, while leaving total testosterone and DHEAS unaffected

• Watercress-Increases energy, high in iron and vitamin E
  

• White peony root-Estrogenic, blocks 5-ar and pro-aromatase
  

• Wild yam-Stimulates hormone production, increases progesterone, prolactin, anti-androgen, and slows the metabolism of estrone, one of the body's own estrogens.
  

• Yogurt-Rich in vitamins, calcium and minerals, growth factors stimulate fibroblast proliferation, collagen, probiotic , and has lactic acid component
