Black Cohosh 20 mg

Swanson Superior Herbs' Black Cohosh 20 mg is a botanical supplement featuring a Black Cohosh Complex at 550 mg per capsule. While the product name highlights 'Black Cohosh 20 mg', the ingredient list indicates a 'Black Cohosh Complex' at a higher dose, suggesting a blend where the exact amount of pure Black Cohosh extract or its active compounds is not fully transparent. Clinical studies on Black Cohosh often use standardized extracts, typically around 20-40 mg, making the 'complex' formulation challenging to evaluate for clinical efficacy. This product received an N+ Score of 45, resulting in an 'F' grade and placing it in the below-average tier for quality. The low score is attributed to the lack of transparency regarding the specific Black Cohosh extract and its standardization. Consumers seeking precise, evidence-based Black Cohosh dosing may find this formulation less ideal. The product contains one proprietary blend, limiting full disclosure.
