Study Groups

Symptomatic RCE

Bladder symptomatic group receiving red clover extract containing the two isoflavones formononetin and biochanin A. Isoflavone amount is 57.45 mg isoflavones daily (55.84 mg aglycones daily), in 70 ml red clover extract (35 ml twice daily, morning and evening with a meal)

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Red Clover Extract (RCE)

Intervention Type DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Red clover extract containing isoflavones Formononetin and biochanin A together with a heterogenous culture of probiotic lactic acid bacteria, and a natural sugar free raspberry/orange flavor. Isoflavone amount is 57.45 mg isoflavones daily (55.84 mg aglycones daily), in 70 ml red clover extract (35 ml twice daily, morning and evening together with a meal)

Healthy RCE

Healthy group without bladder symptoms receiving red clover extract containing the two isoflavones formononetin and biochanin A. Isoflavone amount is 57.45 mg isoflavones daily (55.84 mg aglycones daily), in 70 ml red clover extract (35 ml twice daily, morning and evening with a meal)
