Overview
•Pueraria mirifica at 100 mg may cause mild estrogenic side effects like breast tenderness; avoid in estrogen-sensitive conditions such as breast cancer.
•High B6 dose (10 mg) is safe short-term but monitor for neuropathy with long-term use exceeding 100 mg daily.
•B12 at 500 mcg is well-tolerated with low interaction risk, though it may mask folate deficiency.
•Not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding due to phytoestrogenic effects on hormones.
•Potential interactions with hormone therapies, blood thinners, or thyroid medications; consult a doctor if on prescriptions.
•Veggie capsules and excipients pose minimal allergen risk, but rice bran may affect those with grain sensitivities.
