Probiotic Plus contains 9 different probiotic strains, plus a small amount of the prebiotic FOS. It contains strains ideally suited to people between the ages of 3 & 40. The more complementary active strains of bacteria which are present, the greater the beneficial activity. There are many environmental factors prevalent today which adversely affect the balance of probiotic bacteria in our intestine, making it ideal to have more of the naturally-occurring strains available in probiotic supplements. This 9-strain product has been developed with this in mind. Probiotic Plus contains a small amount of FOS, plus the following strains of probiotic bacteria:
- Lactobacillus acidophilus
- Lactobacillus rhamnosus
- Lactococcus lactis
- Bifidobacterium Breve
- Bifidobacterium Bifidum
- Bifidobacterium longum
- Streptococcus thermophilus
- Lactobacillus casei
- Lactobacillus plantarum The blend of lactobacilli, lactococci, streptococci & bifidobacteria allows for the probiotic effects to be exerted in both the distal end of the small intestine & throughout the colon, thus balancing the whole intestinal flora. Moreover, since the probiotic effect is strain-dependent, with each strain serving a specific inhibition purpose, these 9 probiotic strains combined act synergistically to combat intestinal infections & to stimulate the body's natural defences. Nature's Own Probiotic Plus Live Food Supplement 30 Vegan Capsules are free from gluten, corn, wheat, soya & dairy. They do not contain any GM ingredients. Suitable for vegetarians & vegans.

New Prostate Support provides a combination of nutrients which research has indicated are beneficial to the symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) a common cause of discomfort for many men. Research has indicated a number of natural ingredients that are beneficial to the prostate gl&. Prostate symptoms are a frequent cause of discomfort for many males. Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) (enlargment of the prostate gland) is a common problem, mainly affecting men of over 50 years old. Note: It is important to seek medical confirmation for your symptoms. Differential diagnosis for Prostatitis, an inflammation of the prostate, & cancer of the prostate gland should be carried out by a medically qualified practitioner. Active Ingredients:
- Urtica Dioica (Stinging Nettle Root). Analysis of this common plant has revealed the presence of a surprising number of well-known compounds including betasitosterol, quercetin & rutin. Inhibitory & anti-proliferative activity of Urtica Dioica has been recorded in research for human prostate tissue.
- Beta-sitosterol is a natural plant sterol. A number of potential health benefits for plant sterols have been demonstrated with prostate-specific research for beta-sitosterol.
- Pumpkin Seed has historically featured in natural approaches for the prostate gl&, with potential anti-androgen & anti-inflammatory properties suggested for the benefits of pumpkin seed to the prostate in a report published in Reviews in Urology.
- Lycopene. A beneficial role for lycopene has been suggested in patients diagnosed with benign prostate hyperplasia. A pilot study for BPH showed those taking lycopene showed no further enlargement of the prostate, whilst those in the placebo group demonstrated a continuing enlargement.
- Zinc is an important mineral, with many zinc-dependent enzymes present in the body. The functions of zinc include tissue growth, cell replication, bone formation & cell mediated immunity. Researchers have suggested that zinc may serve an important role in regulating both cell growth & apoptosis. All of these are presented in a wholefood mineral base made from hydroponically grown brassica juncea.

Regenerate is a unique product, designed to support cellular health, energy production & help delay the ageing process. This product contains the following ingredients: Acetyl L Carnitine: An important amino acid & vital component of energy metabolism, L Carnitine plays a major role in fat metabolism & the reduction of triglycerides by increasing fat utilisation. Its most important function is to transport fatty acids into the mitochondria of muscle cells, including the heart muscle, for oxidation. Ageing occurs when the energy-producing components of the cell deteriorate, resulting in reduced cellular metabolic activity, accumulation of cellular debris & the eventual death of the cell. Alpha Lipoic Acid: Alpha Lipoic Acid is a powerful antioxidant that works with other nutrients such as vitamins C & E & glutathione to defend against excessive free radicals. It is called a ‘universal antioxidant’ because it is soluble in both water & lipid-based tissue. Alpha Lipoic Acid is used by the body to metabolise food & for energy production. Although there have been hundreds of studies over last 40 years revealing how lipoic acid energises metabolism, the new excitement about this vitamin-like substance can be seen in the countless recent studies focusing on how it improves the physique, combats free radicals, protects our genetic material, slows ageing, & helps protect the heart. L Cysteine: N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine, known as "NAC", provides powerful immune support & also packs a powerful anti-toxin potential. Its ability to neutralise cell & DNA-damaging free radicals can help slow down, what many scientists point to as, a key factor in the ageing process. Rosemary: Rosemary was known historically as a memory enhancer, dating back to ancient Greece. Rosemary contains flavonoids that are anti-inflammatory & a lipid-soluble anti-oxidant. They bind to free iron, preventing it from generating free radicals. Flavonoids reduce platelet stickiness & improve vascular health. Ginkgo Biloba: Ginkgolide research shows it to have the ability to reduce inflammation. Ginkgo appears to inhibit the release of PAF (Platelet Aggravating Factor) into the blood. PAF is released in response to injury & inflammation, & causes the blood to become stickier & more prone to clotting. Ginkgo also has the ability to improve peripheral circulation. Co Q10: Co Q10 is a potent antioxidant that supports vitamin E. Co Q10 boosts the function of the mitochondria, the energy factory of cells, something which naturally depletes as we get older. The heart muscle uses significant quantities of Co Q10, & it is important to ensure intake as we get older, & more so for those on statin medication, as these drugs inhibit its production in the body. Nature's Own Regenerate Multi-Nutrient Antioxidant Formula Capsules are free from gluten, corn, wheat, soya & dairy. They do not contain any GM ingredients. Suitable for vegetarians & vegans. [I] Ingredients: N-acetyl L-carnitine hydrochloride; alpha lipoic acid; hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (capsule shell); N-acetyl L-cysteine; co enzyme Q10; ginkgo biloba; rosemary; vegetable magnesium stearate; silicon dioxide.[/I] ...

Vitamin C Extra contains vitamins C & E, two important anti-oxidant nutrients that work together in the body. Vitamin C is synthesised naturally by all species of primates except man, guinea pigs & the Indian fruit bat. It is thought that a genetic mutation caused this situation some 25-60 million years ago. Vitamin C is involved in:
- Formation & maintenance of collagen
- Metabolism of tryptophan (a brain chemical)
- Antioxidant activity
- Maintenance of a healthy immune system
- Absorption of iron
- Growth & repair of tissue
- Maintenance of normal blood cholesterol levels
- Metabolism of fat Vitamin C can be obtained from many natural sources. The best-known sources are the citrus fruits: oranges, lemons, tangerines, limes & grapefruits. The fruits with the highest natural concentrations are citrus fruits, rose hips, strawberries & acerola cherries. Vegetable sources include: red & green peppers, broccoli, brussel sprouts, tomatoes, asparagus, parsley, dark leafy greens, cabbage & sauerkraut. Grains & beans contain very small quantities, except when sprouted, when they provide excellent amounts. The richest vegetable source is the green pepper, which contains more vitamin C than an orange, weight-for-weight.

Vitamin C is an essential, water-soluble vitamin that cannot be manufactured by or stored in your body, so needs to be replaced on a daily basis. Your daily requirement for it is higher than any other water-soluble nutrient because, unlike most other animals, you cannot manufacture it in your body. Vitamin C is very unstable, so storing, peeling, freezing & cooking food can deplete the vitamin C content in it. What does it do?
- Helps in the growth & repair of tissue
- Helps support healthy skin, bones, tendons & joints
- Involved with iron absorption
- Acts as a powerful antioxidant; helps support your immune system & fight infection
- Helps to maintain normal blood cholesterol levels
- Involved in fat metabolism In nature, vitamin C occurs in a food complex, including many bioflavonoids that assist its absorption in the body: these are also present in the Food State form. Food State Vitamin C has the same p H as in food, so is less acidic than ascorbic acid & therefore far gentler on the stomach. Most vitamin C sold on the market today is the isolated molecule of ascorbic acid, which is highly acidic & does not contain other food factors. Nature's Own Vitamin C with Bioflavonoids Vegan Tablets are free from gluten, corn, wheat, soya & dairy. They do not contain any GM ingredients. Suitable for vegetarians & vegans. [I] Ingredients: Vitamin C incorporated in citrus pulp; vegetable stearic acid, vegetable magnesium stearate, silicon dioxide, vegetable protein (zein).[/I]
