What is Alfresco
Alfresco is the only available moisturiser containing a natural insect repellant.
It contains botanical extracts (Geranium, Lavender, Melissa) to repel insects without repelling humans.
It is a natural insect repellent with a pleasant fragrance and is also a nourishing, effective moisturizer and skin conditioner.
New! Alfresco has now launched its new fragrance Acqua D'Alfresco, the essential fragrant anti bug bite in an atomiser. Learn more.
Product Testing
Most synthetic insect repellants contain a chemical called Deet (diethyltoluamide) which can react badly on the skin as well as with some plastics (e.g. camera cases, spectacle frames, watch straps).
Alfresco has been tested and proven an effective deterrent of mosquitoes by the School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, part of the University of London. Researcher, Nigel Hill, tests the product by placing his bare forearm in a cage full of mosquitoes and records their biting.
Alfresco is tested on humans not animals.
The `Purefect' way to shed those Christmas pounds!
A new dietary slimming programme by Purefect is about to hit the shops and could revolutionise the way you control your weight.
Purefect are launching two new slimming products which use a combination of tried and tested methods to help lose those excess pounds fast.
The first product uses the same patch "technology" that has been successful in helping many people quit smoking.
'The How To Get Slim' slimming system helps decrease food intake by releasing natural fucus vesiculosus extract, via a patch, placed on the body.
Each 'The How To Get Slim' patch works for a full 24 hours, giving the benefit of working even whilst you are asleep!
Guarana has been used for centuries in the East to melt off excess fats, 5-HTP to help decrease food intake, Lecithin for the breakdown of fats and cholesterol and to help distribute bodyweight and L-carnitine plays a critical role in the metabolism of fatty acids.
With Zinc Pyruvate, Yerba Mate, Flaxseed Oil and Zinc Citrate, this unique patch combines nutrients to aid a calorie contolled diet.
Fucus Vesiculosus Extrect, 5-HTP, Guarana, Zinc Pyruvate, Yerba Mate, Flaxseed Oil, Lecithin, L-Carnitine, Zinc Citrate & Vanilla Aroma.

The human body makes more than 3, 000 kinds of enzymes that speed up chemical reactions and save energy. Digestive enzymes, which are only a few of the thousands of known enzymes, break down the foods we eat into basic building blocks that our body then absorbs and reassembles to build cells, tissues, organs, glands and body systems. If our digestion is compromised then so is our health.
No matter what we eat, all our foods are made from proteins, fats, carbohydrates and a few other complex molecules. Each require different enzymes to break them down into amino acids, fatty acids, glucose and other basic building blocks. Protease digests proteins; lipase digests fats; amylase digests starch; etc.
Udos Choice Ultimate Digestive Enzyme Blend is a complete blend of ten active plant-based enzymes, assisting the breakdown of fats, carbohydrates, proteins, sugars and fibre, aiding a healthy digestion and nutrient absorption.
Udos Digestive Enzymes support a hectic lifestyle and modern diets that are lacking in enzyme-containing raw foods (these naturally occurring enzymes are often lost in the preparation and cooking processes).
Suggested usage: Consume 1 capsule before meals. For heavy meals, consume an additional capsule during the meal. Contents of capsule can be mixed with warm (not piping hot) food.
Ingredients: Amalyse, Protease, Glucoamylase, Malt Diastase, Pectinase (with Phytase), Lipase, Cellulase, Invertase, Lactase, Bromelain, beetroot fibre.
