Lab-tested women’s health supplements in the UK & EU: what the reports show
- Of 20 women’s health products with a published independent lab report we re-opened on 30 Oct 2026, 15 are lab verified with numeric lead, cadmium, mercury and arsenic results for a named batch, all within EU limits for lead, cadmium and mercury.
- Top picks by report: Sunday Natural Chasteberry (Vitex) Extract and Clary Sage Extract (all four metals below LOQ; EU € and UK £ shops), edubily Meno Balance and Iron with Lactoferrin (GBA, affiliate; coupon CLEANASSAY), VitaMoment Meno-Komplex, and Vitabay Black Cohosh.
- Two lab-verified products carry a plain note: VitaMoment Schilddrüsen-Komplex measured total arsenic 5.
- 2 mg/kg (inorganic 0.
- 27 mg/kg), most likely from kelp — within EU limits (no EU arsenic limit for supplements) but higher than most products we list; Sunday Natural Selenomethionine lab-measured about 262 µg selenium per daily dose versus 200 µg on the label, slightly above EFSA’s adult tolerable upper intake level of 255 µg/day — check total selenium from other supplements or multivitamins.
- Five more products are Partial report only (pass/fail, bulk sample, or no batch).
- German brands are EU-only in our data; only Sunday Natural also has a UK shop (£).
- Botanical menopause-cure claims are not authorised in the EU or UK; we only use authorised nutrient claims (B6, iodine, selenium, iron, folate) when the product has a significant amount.

About Women's Health
- What it is
- Supplements marketed for women’s health: menopause and perimenopause blends (sage, clary sage, black cohosh, chasteberry, evening primrose, B6), thyroid support (kelp iodine, selenium, tyrosine blends), iron (often with lactoferrin or vitamin C), folate (Quatrefolic or folic acid), and women’s multis.
- Common forms
- Capsules, softgels or powder. Forms in our list include Vitex/chasteberry extract, clary sage and sage extracts, black cohosh, evening primrose oil, selenomethionine, kelp iodine, iron bisglycinate or iron with lactoferrin, and Quatrefolic folate.
- Typical label doses
- Doses vary by product. Iron products in our list declare about 14–20 mg iron a day; folate 400 µg; selenium 100–200 µg; iodine products are compared separately under seaweed where they are plain kelp.
- Note
- Black cohosh, sage, clary sage, chasteberry, evening primrose, maca, saffron and hops have no authorised EU or UK health claims for menopause or hormones. We only describe ingredients and lab results. Seaweed/kelp in thyroid blends can raise total arsenic; there is no EU arsenic limit for supplements. Selenium intakes from several products can add up; EFSA’s adult tolerable upper intake level is 255 µg/day (2023).

FAQ
Which women’s health product has the cleanest metals?
Among lab-verified products, several Sunday Natural and edubily items have all four metals below the reporting limit, including Sunday Natural Chasteberry, edubily Meno Balance and edubily Iron with Lactoferrin (GBA reports, 2026).
Can you claim these ease menopause symptoms?
No. Black cohosh, sage, clary sage, chasteberry, evening primrose, maca, saffron and hops have no authorised EU or UK health claims. We only describe ingredients and lab results. Authorised nutrient claims (B6, iodine, selenium, iron, folate) apply only when the product has a significant amount of that nutrient.
Why note arsenic on the thyroid blend?
VitaMoment Schilddrüsen-Komplex measured total arsenic 5.2 mg/kg (inorganic 0.27 mg/kg), most likely from kelp. There is no EU arsenic limit for supplements; lead, cadmium and mercury were within EU limits. The figure is higher than most products we list, so we show it plainly.
Why note the selenium dose?
Sunday Natural Selenomethionine’s lab measured about 262 µg selenium per daily dose versus 200 µg on the label, slightly above EFSA’s adult tolerable upper intake level of 255 µg/day. Check total selenium from other supplements or multivitamins.
Can I buy these in the UK?
Only Sunday Natural products in this list have a UK seller (sunday-natural.co.uk, £). The German brands are EU-only in our data; we have not checked whether they deliver to the UK.
