All products can be ordered over the phone and posted out.
- Constipation: Many medications will result in constipation. Soluble fibre is the best solution as it can soften a hard, compacted stool and make it more slippery and easy to pass. Foods like pears, kiwis, apples and rhubarb are all high in soluble fibre. A large spoon of oatbran and psyllium husk added to your porridge or to a yoghurt will help. Aloe Pura Aloe Complex is a very gentle natural laxative and safe with almost all medications.
- Gallbladder: Stones can form in the gallbladder and if these become too large will cause inflammation of the gallbladder and possible infection, and at the least will affect the way you can digest fat. Taking a digestive enzyme such as Biocare Artichoke and Lipase Complex with help with the nausea. Malic acid and Quebra Pedra are two natural supplements that you can take to soften stones and make them more likely to be passed harmlessly. Turmeric, choline, and L Plantarum probiotic can all help. BioNutri Taracyn complex is a great blend that gives good results for our customers.
- Statins – Side Effects: Statins block a pathway in the liver that makes cholesterol. However, this pathway also makes a vitamin called CoEnzyme Q10 that is essential for the energy pathways of every single cell in the body and brain. A deficiency of this vitamin means that these cells cannot produce the energy to function properly so you can get side effects like muscle pain and wastage, forgetfulness, low energy and low mood. Taking a Coenzyme Q10 supplement can help. Our customers love Macanta or Betula CoEnzyme Q10 and for serious side effects we recommend Natures Plus Ubiquinol CoQ10 200mg.
- Natural Cholesterol Alternatives: Red rice yeast contains monakolins that have the same pharmacological action as the statin drug so they are very effective at reducing cholesterol. For some reason, perhaps because they come from a natural source rather than synthetic, most people can tolerate them well without side effects. Our customers see good results with Macanta Redf Rice Yeast, Betula Normochol, and CardioK.
- Varicose Veins: If you suffer from itchy legs without a rqash, then it could be inflammation of the veins – called varicose veins. Other symptoms would be hot, restless and painful, heavy legs. Taking horse chestnut, hawthorne can help reduce inflammation and rubbing a horse chestnut cream into the legs can make a difference quickly. We like A. Vogel Venatone tablets and Dr. Clare Ventaotone cream.
- Post Nasal Drip: Generally as a result of an allergic or sensitivity reaction. If you are worse in winter maybe a mould allergy – get an air purifier. If worse in the summer, most likely pollen – take natural anti-histamines like quercetin, nettle and vitamin C. Dr. Clare Allertone can help if it is this type of an allergy. If you are the all year round, it could be a food sensitivity – dairy is often a culprit. Taking natural decongest like Dr. Clare Decongestant or Mucotone, or Ivy and Thyme can help dry up mucus.
