Summary
This study tested whether a daily dietary supplement called Bonafide-HF3.0 can reduce the number and severity of hot flashes and night sweats in women going through menopause. 112 healthy women aged 40-70 with frequent hot flashes took the supplement for 4 weeks, with an optional 8-week extension. The goal was to see if symptoms improved and if quality of life got better.
