Testing a nutritional supplement for menopause symptoms in midlife women

This is a pilot study testing a nutritional supplement containing cinnamon extract, chromium, berberine, and myo-inositol to see if it can help ease menopause symptoms and improve metabolic health in midlife women. Researchers want to learn whether this medication can reduce hot flushes, sleep problems, mood changes, weight gain, and other common symptoms that happen during the transition to menopause. Half of the participants will receive the medication, and half will receive a placebo (a pill with no active ingredients).

Menopause brings significant physical and metabolic changes—including weight gain, hot flushes, sleep problems, and mood swings—caused by declining estrogen levels. While some hormone treatments exist, this trial is exploring whether natural nutritional supplements might offer a safe, effective alternative to help manage these symptoms.
