Baywood proudly introduces a new Complete La Femme® Breast & Balance. Complete La Femme® Breast & Balance includes their original female hormone balancing herbal formula now trademarked as Mazoreal. Like the original formula, Baywood has maintained the main ingredients, but also included several new ingredients for supporting glandular function and hormonal balance. Nutrients and other natural ingredients such as gamma linoleic acid (GLA) (from evening primrose oil), maitake, lecithin and other vitamins and minerals known for supporting glandular functioning and hormone balance, have been added to make Complete La Femme® Breast & Balance a more complete formula.

Women’s Delicate Hormonal Balance
Women may experience any number of hormonal shifts or imbalances throughout their lifetime that can affect their daily functioning and quality of life. A number of women often experience irregular or even painful menstrual periods along with Pre-Menstrual Syndrome (PMS) that includes unpleasant symptoms such as mood swings, irritability, bloating and cramping.

All components of the breast are influenced by female hormones with the glandular tissue being the most sensitive. Very dramatic and totally normal changes can occur in the consistency of the breasts during the menstrual cycle, due to hormonal shifts. These changes are most evident just prior to menstruation when levels of estrogen and progesterone are peaking.

There are several nutrients that can help support female hormonal balance. Certain natural ingredients can also aid in the proper function of a healthy immune system, lymph drainage, and glandular function, by providing essential nutrients. Some of the most important ingredients for these purposes are maitake mushroom, evening primrose oil (GLA),vitamin E, lecithin, zinc, vitamin B-6, selenium and folic acid.

Anatomy of the Breast
The breast is made of lobes of glandular tissue with associated ducts for transfer of the milk to the exterior and supportive fibrous and fatty tissue. On average, there are 15 to 20 lobes in each breast, arranged roughly in a wheel spoke pattern emanating from the nipple area. The distribution of the lobes is not even, however. There is a preponderance of glandular tissue in the upper outer portion of the breast. This is responsible for the tenderness in this region that many women experience prior to their menstrual cycle.

Breast tissue is supported by ligaments called Cooper's ligaments that keep the breasts in their characteristic shape and position. In the elderly or in pregnancy, these ligaments become loose or stretched and the breasts sag. The lymphatic system drains the tissues of the breast of excess fluid. Lymph nodes in the glandular tissue along the pathway of drainage, also function to screen for foreign bodies (as part of the immune system) such as bacteria or viruses.
