Black Cohosh

When it comes to herbal remedies, you get what you pay for.

The black cohosh that we carefully select for Kira Ltd's Black Cohosh is cultivated in the optimum conditions and has to meet strict growing criteria. This extreme care ensures that the plants are harvested at their peak so their roots and rhizomes produce the highest yield of active ingredient: scientifically know as LI 182.

After gently drying the plants to preserve this active ingredient, we use state of the art processing methods to extract, purify and measure it. Every Kira Ltd's Black Cohosh tablet contains a consistent, standardised 4.5 mg extract of black cohosh (Cimicifuga racemosa L) - equivalent to up to 54mg of dried root. This absolute accuracy means you can be confident you will get the same dose every time.
