Red Clover Extract is a standardized botanical concentrate derived from the dried flowers and leaves of Trifolium pratense, a perennial herbaceous plant native to Europe, Asia, and North America. It has been traditionally used in herbal medicine for its phytoestrogenic, anti-inflammatory, and blood-purifying properties. Red clover is one of the richest natural sources of isoflavones, a class of plant-derived phytoestrogens that structurally resemble human estrogen.
The primary bioactive isoflavones in red clover include formononetin, biochanin A, genistein, and daidzein. These compounds exhibit estrogenic and anti-estrogenic activities, making red clover extract a popular ingredient in formulations targeting menopausal health, bone health, and cardiovascular support. The isoflavones also possess antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
Red Clover Extract is widely used in dietary supplements, functional foods, and research applications for women’s health, hormonal balance, and overall wellness.

Q: What is the difference between red clover extract and soy isoflavones?
A: Both are rich in isoflavones, but red clover contains a different isoflavone profile, with higher levels of formononetin and biochanin A, while soy is higher in genistein and daidzein.
Q: What is the recommended dosage for menopausal support?
A: Clinical studies typically use 40 – 80 mg of total isoflavones per day, often standardized to 20% isoflavones.
Q: Is red clover extract suitable for vegetarians and vegans?
A: Yes, it is plant-derived and suitable for vegetarian and vegan applications.
Q: Does red clover extract interact with medications?
A: Red clover may interact with hormone therapy, blood thinners, and medications metabolized by the liver. Consult a healthcare professional before use.
Q: Is red clover extract suitable for long-term use?
