Antioxidants.
Antioxidants are essential for overall health, and are the ultimate anti-aging nutrients.
They reduce damage to the body’s cells from both naturally occurring, and introduced chemicals.
Specifically, these nutrients have an ability to prevent oxidation, and neutralise free radicals – unstable compounds that react with, and damage other substances in the body.
Clinical studies show that antioxidants work with synergy with each other.
To ensure good health, take a number of different types of antioxidant, enabling you to best protect the whole body, and all of its complex systems, and tissues.
Recent studies on centenarians have revealed a clue of their longevity secret – they have higher levels of antioxidants in their body.
Black Cohosh.
During the menopause oestrogen levels steadily decrease: at the same time a substance known as luteinizing hormone is believed to cause the hot flushes, and other uncomfortable symptoms associated with the menopause.
Black Cohosh suppresses luteinzing hormone levels, thereby minimising the side effects that excess levels of the hormone can cause.
Use:
Studies have confirmed that intake of standardised black cohosh reduces other uncomfortable symptoms associated with the menopause such as hot flushes, nervousness, anxiety, and depression.
Black Cohosh has also been shown to be effective for relieving cramps.
Improvements are seen after several weeks to three month of daily use.
Chondroitin Sulphate.
As we age, our connective tissue can become increasingly worn, causing joint mobility problems, and degenerative diseases.
Chondroitin Sulphate is an important compound of our connective tissue that makes up our joints.
It gives our cartlage, and ligaments their flexibility, and attracts water to these tissues, thereby maintaining proper hydration.
Supplementation with chondroitin sulphate has been shown to improve condition of connective tissues; improve tissue repair, and wound healing; treat osteoarthritis by restoring joint function, and reducing pain; and cause improvements in circulatory system wellness by increasing structure of the inner lining of the blood vessels.
Cod Liver Oils.
Cod Liver Oil is rich in omega-3 fatty acids such as EPA & DHA. These two substances are linked with lowering triglycerides (fatty substances in the blood) – atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries).
Cod Liver Oil is the ideal supplement for anyone seeking to maintain optimum health.
Glucosamine Sulphate.
Glucosamine sulphate is manufactured by the body from glucose, nitrogen, and two molecules of hydrogen.
It is used for production of a group of compounds called glycosaminoclycans, which are needed to make the body.
Supplement intake of Glucosamine has been shown to stimulate production of connective tissues, improve joint repair & function, treat arthritis (osteoarthritis), promote healing of injuries, and wounds after surgery, strengthen the circulatory system, improve joint lubrication, and improve the thickness of the skin, nails, and hair.
Magnesium.
Magnesium is an important structural component of bone and is involved in many metabolic reactions, including energy production and synthesis of proteins, and nucleic acids.
It plays a role in the relaxation of muscle tissues, and the maintenance of heart health and function.
Improvements in athletic performance have recently been reported among athletes taking magnesium supplements.
Woman who experience menstrual discomfort can also benefit from supplement intake of magnesium.
Manganese.
Manganese is an essential trace mineral required for energy production.
It is a component of enzymes, and antioxidant superoxide dismutase (SOD).
Manganese aids in bone, and connective tissue formation.
It is one of the key trace minerals essential for health, and well-being.
MSM.
MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane) is a sulphur-containing substance that occurs naturally in plants, and animals.
MSM serves as a supply of biologically accessible sulphur, to be used in structural proteins, and enzymes.
MSM’s most noted use as a nutritional supplement is with connective tissue disorders and arthritis as studies have shown that MSM stimulates collagen formation.
MSM also plays a role in promoting immune system function by supplying the sulphur needed in the formation of lgG, an important immunoglobulin.
MSM supplement support the proper structure, and function of the gastrointestinal, and respiratory tracts.
MSM promotes the growth, and maintenance of the connective tissues, resulting in improvements in joint, skin, hair, and other tissues.
Omega3 Fatty Acids.
Omega-3 fatty acids such as EPA & DHA are found in fish oils.
These two substances are linked with lowering triglycerides – thus helping prevent heart disease - and inhibiting atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries), and helping to reduce pain, and inflammation.
Omega-3 fatty acids are the ideal supplement for anyone seeking to maintain optimal health.
Red Yeast Rice.
Originating in China, Red Yeast Rice (also called Maonascus Purpureus) is a type of yeast that, when fermented on rice, results in the production of natural statin-type chemicals, similar to the drug Lovastatin.
Several clinical studies as little as 1200mg of standardised Red Yeast Rice supplement significantly lowered blood cholesterol levels within eight weeks, with no side effects.
A recent clinical study conducted in the United Stated using 2400mg of standardised Red Yeast Rice Confirmed these results.
Saw Palmetto.
In over twenty-two clinical studies, saw Palmetto extract has been shown to promote the health, and function of the prostate in adult males.
Saw Palmetto has been reported in clinical studies to be an effective treatment for non malignant prostate conditions, such as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
In studies of BPH, saw Palmetto extract was show to improve urine flow, decrease prostate size, reduce inflammation, reduce frequency of urination at night, improve duration of the bladder voiding, and reduce post micturitional dribbling.
Results are seen in four to six weeks with progressive improvements seen with continual used.
