CLA helps regulate fat and protein metabolism. It works by inhibiting the enzyme that transports fat from the blood to fat cells. The cardiovascular system also benefits from CLA as it helps prevent fat deposits in the arteries and around the heart. CLA is naturally present in red meat and dairy products but modern farming methods have reduced the amount of CLA in these foods and it is difficult to get sufficient CLA from your diet. Our capsule will provide you with a high quality 500mg dose of CLA. |

Discover this rare natural hunger-beater from the dunes of the Kalahari Desert. For thousand of years South African bushmen (known as `San people) have relied on the hoodia plant during long hunting trips. By chewing on it they could fight off hunger whilst sustaining energy levels. These properties make it ideal for helping weight loss by curbing cravings and suppressing snacking. Whenever you eat levels of `glucose (energy stored as sugar) in your body rise. This triggers a message in part of your brain to say you are full. Hoodia contains a molecule that is about 10000 times as active as glucose. This means it can trick your brain into thinking your stomach is full - even if you skip a meal! An early hoodia trial showed a calorie reduction of up to 1000 a day and was described as a `stunning success. Now the western world is hungry for more of this weight loss wonder. Rest assured unlike many other Hoodia products on the market Healthy Directs Hoodia Gordonii 400mg is made in a factory which holds a pharmaceutical manufacturing license: this is granted by the Danish Medicines Authority (who are amongst the most exacting agencies in the EU) and has recognition throughout Europe. Our capsules contain 400mg of Hoodia Gordonii Dried Herb Powder (equivalent to 8000mg Hoodia Gordonii) certified as of South African origin. |

Tests show that regular use of Saw Palmetto berry extract can reduce the discomfort of a mild to moderately enlarged prostate. Although it doesnt actually shrink the prostate it does appear to stop it from getting any larger. Enlargement of the prostate (`Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia/Hypertrophy - BPH) is a common condition which causes the prostate to press on the urethra (the tube that carries urine from the bladder through the prostate and out through the penis). This can interfere with the urines exit from the bladder causing frequent urination (especially at night) weak urine flow painful urination and difficulty emptying the bladder. Depending upon its severity it can also have a negative effect upon sexual desire and performance. Research confirms that Saw Palmetto works by altering levels of the various hormones (possibly including a form of testosterone) that cause prostate cells to multiply excessively thereby causing the prostate to swell. The herb may also have an anti-inflammatory action and may boost the immune systems ability to kill bacteria - properties both useful for the treatment of urinary tract and prostate infections. Named after its saw-toothed stems Saw Palmetto is a small palm tree that grows wild in southern USA. It has a lifespan of 700 years and a long history of use to match: Originally used by Native Americans to treat urinary tract disorders today Saw Palmetto is used mainly to relieve the symptoms associated with an enlarged prostate gland. In an international study of 1000 men with moderate BPH two thirds benefited from taking either a prescription drug (Proscar) or Saw Palmetto for six months. Those using the herb had fewer problems with side effects linked with the drug(such as reduced libido and impotence). Our high strength 1000mg Saw Palmetto will provide you with a high strength high quality dose of the herb. |

Let your liver live a little longer with the traditional healing properties of Milk Thistle. The liver is involved in a range of bodily functions and is often overworked. Its numerous roles include: breaking down and detoxifying pollutants (such as alcohol and nicotine) that enter the blood stream converting and storing nutrients and producing bile. But excessive alcohol intake and general unhealthy lifestyles can hinder the livers ability to do so. By supplementing with Milk Thistle you are giving it a much needed helping hand. Native to the Mediterranean southern Russia Asia and northern Africa this spiny but edible plant has been used for centuries for various liver-related ills and for improving digestion. In the 17th Century an English herbalist called Nicholas Culpeper discovered that Milk Thistle is effective for removing liver obstructions but it wasnt until the 1960s that scientists finally identified the active ingredients responsible for Milk Thistles healing properties and named them `silymarin. Silymarin protects the liver from toxin or disease-related damage by stimulating the regenerative ability of the liver to replenish and strengthen liver cells. It can even improve digestion by stimulating the gall bladder. As a powerful antioxidant silymarin may also prevent highly reactive oxygen molecules called free radicals from damaging cells throughout the body especially in the liver where it may reduce damage to liver cells caused by overuse of certain prescription drugs. Each Milk Thistle Extract High Strength (380mg) tablet contains 380mg of standardised Milk Thistle extract providing 304mg Silymarin. |

Studies have shown that Chromium increases insulin sensitivity and binding. Also in the presence of Chromium the number of insulin receptors increases. Modern food processing strips our foods of Chromium and the manufacturing processes involved in producing white flour and other grains remove more than 90% of the naturally-occurring chromium. Continuing deficiency in our diets may be linked to the high incidence of adult-onset diabetes. |

peutic value. The body converts GLA into hormone-like compounds called `prostaglandins which regulate a number of bodily functions; controlling inflammation in some cases and promoting it in others. Specifically Evening Primrose Oil may help to relieve the symptoms of PMS (premenstrual syndrome) and menstruation such as menstrual cramps and breast tenderness. Research at St Thomas Hospital in London found that when PMS sufferers were given Evening Primrose Oil three times a day 67% of participants were symptom-free and 22% achieved partial relief. (In all 89% had positive results with Evening Primrose Oil ). Many PMS sufferers are found to have unusually low levels of GLA in their systems as are people with low thyroid function poor dietary habits high alcohol consumption and people whose bodies are generally under stress.
