EF#27: Vitex for Fertility with Lizzie Alexander

Vitex agnus-castus, otherwise known as Chasteberry is a herb that women are often recommended when they have menstrual problems, but there is quite bitty information and certainly different recommendations on how to take it. In this episode you will learn all about it and most importantly what the scientific research and literature has shown, and also what leading functional doctors and practitioners are recommending based on their clinical expertise.

In this I talk about:

  • What Vitex is
  • The benefits of taking Vitex
  • How Vitex works within the body
  • Who is it not for?
  • Recommended ways to take it

As always there is more information in the show notes on my website, including references, mentioned podcast episodes, blogs or resources – go to the show notes, where you can also listen:
