Herbal data indicates that Fenugeek, Fennel Seed, Dong Quai Root, Blessed Thistle Herb, Dandelion Root, Watercress Leaf, L-Tyrosine, and Kelp contain the highest levels of these natural estrogens, phyto-nutrients and diosgenin. These phyto-nutrients are mild but effective and have many health benefits. Several chemical and environmental toxins will mimic estrogen and attach to the receptor sites, slowing the growth process. Our herbs also contain plant nutrients to help wash these toxins from the system, aiding in healthy breast tissue development.

For most women, the reactivation of the mammary glands and the development of breast tissue takes five to eight weeks, although you may experience fullness and firmness in as little as four weeks. Near the end of the first two months, while entering the third month, is when cup size growth begins, anywhere from a 1/2 cup to 2 cups, and with continued use, even 3 cups. Some women will experience growth within this time frame, other women will experience growth outside this time frame. Differences in metabolism and body chemistry can affect how quickly and effectively these herbs will work for you. The level needed varies from person to person.

Is Breast Gain Plus Safe?
The herbs contained in our blend are very safe and have been in common use for centuries. There are no health warnings of any sort associated with them and they are on the Federal Drug Administration's list of safe foods (GRAS list). These are plants, not pharmaceutical drugs and their actions are mild but effective. They would be similar in safety to something such as garlic. They have been found to have several health benefits such as easing the symptoms of PMS and menopause, and helping to minimize the water weight gain associated with the unique cycles of a woman's body. As with any herb or food there is always the possibility of allergic reactions, but this is extremely rare with these herbs.
Phytoestrogens with their estrogenic like properties also provide an excellent relief from the common symptoms of menopause including the following:
•Night sweats
•Mood swings
•Vaginal dryness
•Sagging breast
•Sexual disinterest
•Weight gain
•Memory and concentration problems
•Depression
•Hot flashes
•Osteoporosis
•Fibrocystic lumps
•Night sweats
•Painful intercourse
•Insomnia
•Heart Palpitations
•Fatigue
•Hair Changes
•Heavy Bleeding
Phytoestrogens, while they displace the human estrogen, support female hormone levels by exerting an estrogen like effect on the reproductive organs. These Phytoestrogens are an estimated to be 100-500 times less potent in their estrogen effect than human estrogen. They maintain a hormonal balance by acting as anti-estrogen when the body's natural levels are high and they act as human estrogen when levels are low.
