MET-Rx Xtreme Multi Vitamins (50 Tabs)
Multivitamin and mineral supplements are perhaps the most important single supplement that can be consumed by bodybuilders and athletes. MET-Rx Xtreme Multi Vitamins enables you to get your daily dose of vast and complex vital nutrients.
Improves your body function
In general, a good daily multivitamin/mineral supplement improves your overall bodily functioning and boosts both physical and mental health and wellbeing. The individual vitamins and nutrients in a quality daily multivitamin dose deliver the specific benefits of each individual vitamin, plus you get the combined, or synergistic, benefits of all the ingredients working together.
The benefits of vitamin E
Vitamin E, a fat-soluble antioxidant vitamin helps to neutralise potentially damaging free radicals in the body. It is particularly important for the protection of cell membranes as well as maintaining healthy skin, heart and circulation, nerves, muscles and red blood cells.
The benefits of vitamin C
Vitamin C is water soluble but, like Vitamin E it is an antioxidant. It helps white blood cells to combat infection, is essential for wound healing, for the formation of collagen, for healthy skin, and the formation of other important structural materials in bones, teeth and capillaries. It also helps with the absorption of iron.
Supports vigorous training
It is important to take multivitamins daily to enjoy the benefits to their fullest extent. Vigorous training, for example, increases the production of free radicals in the body. Therefore, when involved in an exercise program, you should increase the intake of antioxidants such as beta-carotene, vitamin C and vitamin E, and ensure you take adequate amounts of the proper vitamins and minerals required to maintain strong, healthy bones and joints such as calcium and iron.

Reflex LinumLife Flaxseed Extract (120 Caps)
If you are worried about hair loss or problems with your prostate then read on, we might have an answer. Both of these problems are dierctly associated with Testosterone. Testosterone is a hormone partially responsible for muscle growth, and generally accepted to contribute to muscle strength, lean body mass, energy production and endurance. 95-98% of a mans testosterone level is bound by sex hormone binding proteins (SHBG) and other circulating proteins. Once free from SHBG, testosterone can be easily converted into dihydrotestosterone (DHT).It is DHT that is believed to be directly responsible for baldness and BPH. With hairloss, the rate of hair shedding is accelerated up by an over-abundance of DHT within the hair follicle. The conversion from testosterone to DHT is driven by an enzyme called 5-alpha reductase, which is produced in the prostate, various adrenal glands, and the scalp. Over time, the action of DHT causes the hair follicle to degrade and shorten the anagen phase. In a similar way DHT can bind to prostate tissue causing irregular growth, and in latter years BPH or prostate cancer.The goods news is that there is now a very new, natural product, which might help combat DHT. It is called Linumlife and it contains a group of plant chemicals called lignans that are derived from Flax. In scientific studies, lignans from flax are reported to have an influence on testosterone metabolism through three mechanisms: the inhibition of 5-alpha reductase the inhibition of aromatase the inhibition of 17ß-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase. 5a-reductase The 5a-reductase enzyme converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Lignans inhibits 5a-reductase by selectively and irreversibly binding with 5a-reductase, and thereby block conversion of testosterone to DHT.Enterolactone is found to inhibit 5a-reductase up to 80%(1). Aromatase Lignans inhibit aromatase, a cytochrome P450 enzyme(2). Aromatase is responsible for the alternative conversion of testosterone to 17ß-estradiol. 17ß-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 17ß-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (17ß-OHSD) is another steroid-metabolizing enzyme present in tissue. 17ß-OHSD converts testosterone to androstenedione and estrogens. Lignans demonstrate to be potent inhibitors of 17ß-OHSD. Anti-oxidant effect In addition to these regulating effects on the metabolism of testosterone, SDG, Enterolactone and Enterodiol are potent antioxidants.They scavenge reactive oxygen species, like O2-, H2O2, -OH. Promotes a favourable intestinal environment. The fiber fraction in flax is preserved in LinumLife. It is composed of soluble and insoluble fibers, and reported to play a beneficial role in gut microflora. Colonic bacteria influence the conversion of SDG to enterolactone and enterodiol. Moreover, soluble fiber has shown to have cholesterol-lowering properties(3).Reflex LinumLife - EconomicalYou might think that such an innovative product is going to highly expensive. Fortunately it isnt. Costing only £15.95 for a 2 months supply it represents incredible value for money. Each daily serving, 2 capsules, provides the same amount of lignans that you would typically obtain from eating about 30-40grams of whole flax seed.Reflex LinumLife - Nutritional Breakdown 1 Capsule Provides

MET-Rx Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) 200mg (60 Caps)
Supplementing with alpha lipoic acid can result in measurable gains in both strength and muscularity. Taking MET-Rx ALA before and during a work out will increase performance and help shuttle nutrients faster to your muscles.Powerful antioxidant actionMET-Rx alpha lipoic acid (ALA) is a powerful antioxidant. It is water and fat soluble so can function anywhere in the body. It boosts antioxidant action of both vitamin C and vitamin E. Met-Rx ALA helps neutralise damaging free radicals in both the water soluble and fat soluble compartments of cells.What Is An Antioxidant?Antioxidants are chemical substances that help protect against cell damage from free radicals. A free radical is an unstable molecule that tries to steal electrons from other molecules, thus causing damage. Smoking, pollution and fried foods are some sources of free radicals.MET-Rx ALA - Efficient Energy ProductionALA is essential for energy production by directing calories from food into energy and away from fat production. MET-Rx ALA also regulates blood sugar levels, which may prevent excess fat storage.Where Can I Find ALA?ALA can be found in foods such as meats and vegetables, especially spinach. It is easily absorbed into the blood-stream, and can also cross the blood brain barrier. Two of the best natural sources of lipoic acid are yeast and liver, but the body can synthesise it when necessary. Most alpha lipoic acid in food is derived from lipoamide-containing enzymes and is bound to the amino acid, lysine (lipoylly-sine).
