ethyos - Equilibre Cycle Féminin
Purpose and daily focus
This formula is designed for women who want structured nutritional and botanical support for balance across the cycle. It combines adaptogenic plant extracts with magnesium and a targeted set of vitamins. The overall approach is to support everyday resilience, mood, and energy metabolism. It is intended for routine wellness use rather than short-term, symptom-specific use.
Hormonal balance support
Shatavari (Asparagus racemosus) and maca (Lepidium meyenii) are included as traditional botanicals used in women’s health routines. Vitamin B6 contributes to the regulation of hormonal activity, providing a clear nutritional anchor for the formula’s primary focus. Magnesium bisglycinate complements this by supporting normal nervous system function, which can be relevant during cycle-related lifestyle changes. Together, these ingredients support a steady daily foundation.
Stress management and adaptation
Rhodiola rosea is provided as a standardized extract (rosavins and salidrosides), commonly used in adaptogen blends for stress management. Withania somnifera (ashwagandha) is also standardized to withanolide glycosides, supporting consistent composition. These botanicals are paired with B vitamins that contribute to normal psychological function and energy metabolism. The combination is suited to busy periods where maintaining routine and balance is important.
Mood and nervous system support
Magnesium and vitamin B6 contribute to normal psychological function and normal functioning of the nervous system. Riboflavin (B2), thiamine (B1), niacin (B3), folate (B9), and vitamin B12 support normal energy-yielding metabolism, which can indirectly support day-to-day mental performance. The adaptogenic extracts are included to complement this nutritional base. This creates a multi-angle approach for everyday mood support.
Antioxidant and foundational nutrients
Vitamin E is included as DL-alpha-tocopheryl acetate, contributing to the protection of cells from oxidative stress. Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) supports general nutrient status and is commonly used in foundational wellness routines. These vitamins help round out the formula beyond botanicals and magnesium. The result is a blend that supports both targeted and general daily needs.
How the ingredients work together
The formula pairs standardized adaptogens (rhodiola and ashwagandha) with women’s botanicals (shatavari and maca) to support balance and resilience. Magnesium bisglycinate is used as a well-tolerated form that fits well alongside B vitamins for nervous system and energy metabolism support. Vitamins B6, B9, and B12 provide additional nutritional coverage often used in daily wellness stacks. This synergy is designed for consistent use as part of a broader lifestyle routine.
