Key Ingredients
Wild Yam
Wild Yam has a long history of traditional use by herbalists across many cultures. It naturally contains diosgenin, a plant compound that has made Wild Yam especially valued in botanical formulations created for men and women approaching the changes associated with healthy ageing.
Importantly, Wild Yam does not contain human hormones or progesterone.
Saw Palmetto
Saw Palmetto has traditionally been used in Western herbal medicine in formulations associated with men’s wellbeing and healthy ageing. Its inclusion makes this cream particularly suited to the changing needs of mature men.
Ashwagandha
Ashwagandha is one of Ayurveda’s most revered herbs and has been traditionally used for thousands of years. It is widely recognised as an adaptogenic herb associated with resilience, vitality and supporting the body during periods of physical and emotional stress.
Organic Castor Oil
Rich and deeply moisturising, Castor Oil helps soften and condition dry or rough skin. It has been used for hundreds of years as a panacea.
Frankincense Pure Essential Oil
Known as the “King of Essential Oils”, Frankincense provides a warm, woody and grounding aroma. Traditionally used in aromatic rituals, its distinguished scent encourages a moment of calm, focus and inner strength.

Traditional Use
For centuries, herbalists have used Wild Yam to support hormonal balance, digestive health and inflammatory conditions. The roots of Wild Yam contain diosgenin, a plant steroidal saponin that has been used as a starting material for the development of steroidal compounds including progesterone, oestrogen, cortisone and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA).
Diosgenin continues to be an important compound studied in relation to plant-based steroidal chemistry and herbal medicine.

Traditional Use
Saw Palmetto has been traditionally used as one of the most important herbal medicines for men’s health. Indigenous communities used the fruit as food and medicine, and it later became widely recognised in Western herbal medicine for supporting prostate and urinary health.
Modern research has investigated Saw Palmetto preparations for their role in supporting healthy prostate function and urinary symptoms associated with ageing. Studies suggest its activity may be linked to multiple mechanisms, including anti-inflammatory effects and interaction with androgen pathways.

Traditional Use
Ashwagandha, also known as Withania, Indian ginseng or winter cherry, has been traditionally used in Ayurvedic medicine for thousands of years as a Rasayana herb — a group of botanical medicines traditionally used to promote vitality, strength, longevity and resilience.
The root has been traditionally used as an adaptogen to support the body’s ability to respond to stress, improve energy levels, support nervous system function and promote overall wellbeing. Modern research has investigated Ashwagandha for its adaptogenic, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and reproductive health properties.
Clinical studies have shown Ashwagandha may help support stress management, reduce markers associated with stress, improve quality of life, and support physical performance and reproductive health.

Contraindications and Cautions
Caution is advised during pregnancy due to traditional concerns regarding use in large doses.
Individuals with thyroid conditions or those taking thyroid medications should seek professional advice before use, as Ashwagandha may influence thyroid hormone levels.
