Udo’s Ultimate Omega Oil Blend

Our Product of the month is Omega Oil Blend by Udo’s Choice.

All our cells need  essential fatty acids (EFAs) for all systems of the body to function normally, including your skin, respiratory system, circulatory system, brain and organs.

A wide range of health problems have been linked to omega-3 fat deficiencies, including:

  • Increased inflammation
  • Depression
  • Weight gain and diabetes
  • Allergies and eczema

Your body does not produce  EFAs on it’s own and they have to be sourced from food. The problem is the omega oil balance is quite delicate. Too much omega 6 and the Omega 3 can’t be used properly by the body. In today’s world of fast food, ready meals, and high calorie snacks, it is not uncommon for most people to actually be getting about 15 times more omega-6 than omega-3. Not only that, but most of the Omega Oils we obtain from our diets are damaged by food processing or by exposure to heat, light or oxygen, all of which degrade the nutritional value of Omega 3 and 6.

This is why we love Udo’s Ultimate Oil Blend. It provides a premium natural source of unprocessed, undamaged Omega 3 and 6 in a ratio that supports optimum health.

•    Flax seed oil
•    Sunflower seed oil
•    Sesame seed oil
•    Coconut oil
•    Evening primrose oil
•    Soy lecithin (GMO-free)
•    Rice bran and oat bran germ oils
•    Tocotrienol

In addition Omega 3 Alpha Linolenic Acid found in Ultimate Oil Blend contributes to the maintenance of normal blood cholesterol levels.  This effect is obtained with a daily intake of 2g ALA.

Udo’s for Beauty

Our skin is a window to our dietary habits – it shows us what’s going on in our bodies. If our skin looks dry or tired, then the rest of our body isn’t being fed properly either. By supplying your body with the correct fats – Omega 3 and 6, it allows your skin’s cell membranes to hold onto water. In this simple action the omega oils work as internal moisturisers, giving you beautiful skin from within. At the same time as the cells in your hair and nails benefit too, it is observed that hair gains a new lustre, and nails become flexible and strong.

Udo’s for Sports

Good nutrition plays a key role in any sporting field as when your cells operate at their best so can you.  Getting the right amount of essential fats within the body in the right balance will serve you well in achieving your nutritional goals. Including Ultimate Oil Blend will help you maintain the optimum level of essential fatty acids as you push your body and it’s cells to perform.

How to use:

Enjoy a drizzle of Udo’s Oil in salad dressings, smoothies, soups, casseroles, porridge, pasta dishes, mashed or baked potatoes, protein shakes and more. Check out the Udo’s Recipe Page here or visit us in store to get your free Udo’s Choice 20th anniversary recipe book with your Udo’s Oil

Solgar Cardio Health Essentials

Our Product of the week is Solgar MultiPlus with Cardio Health Essentials.

It is the next generation in a wholefood base for overall cardiovascular health. With a broad spectrum of vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients and energy-rich wholefood concentrates, you can get the benefits for heart, vascular and whole body health in one convenient complex.

Heart health is easy to take for granted especially as heart disease shows few symptoms before it is too late. Even with a balanced diet and moderate exercise, we have emotional and physical stress, pollution and contaminants in the air as well as in our body. Life causes oxidative stress on our body which ultimately affects our heart . Solgar MultiPlus with Cardio Health Essentials is designed to help combat these daily problems by including many of the high-performing, protective nutrients you need:

COQ-10 and Niacin (Vitamin B3): These are both found in healthy muscle structure. COQ-10 is a critical nutrient required by the cells in the body to produce the energy we need to keep our heart strong, as well as being an antioxidant which helps protect us from oxidative stress.

Copper, Manganese and Vitamins C and E: Antioxidants help fight free radicals and support cell repair for a health heart and circulatory system.

Circulatory Herbal Complex: Ginkgo Biloba, Hawthorne Berry, Motherwort,  Pomegranate,  Amla and Cayenne Powder – a mixture of traditional herbs used to strengthen the heart and improve circulation.

Solgar MultiPlus with Cardio Health Essentials also contains a full spectrum of essential vitamins and minerals for general health and wellbeing. They have been added to a wholefood base for improved absorption by the body.

February is our Heart Health month. Visit one of our stores to chat to a member of staff to find out more about what you can do to help improve your cardiovascular health.

 

Aloe Dent Toothpaste

We love the Aloe Dent toothpaste range from Optima.

Containing natural ingredients to clean and protect your teeth and gums, these Aloe based, minty, flouride free toothpastes come in 3 different varieties:

Whitening Toothpaste

Aloe Vera and Silica helps maintain naturally white teeth, so you can be sure you are getting all the benefits of a flouride free toothpaste with natural ingredients, such as antiseptic Tea Tree Oil and Xylitol, every time you brush.

Sensitive Toothpaste

Soothing Aloe Vera and Echinacea are key to the special sensitive formulation. This toothpaste also contains natural ingredients such as Escin (from Horse Chestnut) & antiseptic Tea Tree Oil

Triple Action Toothpaste

The all round Aloe Vera alongside Co-Q10, which helps to maintain healthy gums, with natural ingredients such as Chitosan (from shell fish) and Tea Tree Oil.

The Sensitive, Whitening and Children’ s are suitable for use by both vegetarians and vegans. However, the Triple Action toothpaste contains Chitosan which plays a role in neutralizing pH/acid in the mouth. Chitosan is derived from crustaceans and this therefore not suitable for vegetarians and vegans.

Optima Pomegranate Juice

It’s heart health month and our product of the week is Optima Pomegranate Juice.

It is double strength and unfiltered, one of nature’s most powerful antioxidants, Optima’s pomegranate Juice is made from pure, unfiltered juice.

Small studies seem to suggest that drinking pomegranate juice might lower cholesterol. It’s also thought that pomegranate juice may block or slow the build up of cholesterol in the arteries of people who are at higher risk of heart disease. A study from 2004 on patients with carotid artery stenosis (narrowed arteries) found that a daily 50ml glass of pomegranate juice over three years reduced the damage caused by cholesterol in the artery by almost half, and also cut cholesterol build-up.

Another trial from 2005 on 45 patients with coronary heart disease demonstrated that 238ml of pomegranate juice daily over three months resulted in improved blood flow to the heart and a lower risk of heart attack.

Research also shows that pomegranate juice contains free radical scavenging antioxidants which help the body’s natural defence system fight oxidative damage. Reducing oxidative stress and inflammatory damage in blood vessels is a well-documented way to lower the risk of cardiovascular disease.

Looks like plenty of reason to love the pomegranate.

New Horizon NectAloe

New Horizon Nectaloe is a carefully selected blend of Marshmallow Root, Slippery Elm and Aloe Vera to support the digestive tract.

Traditionally Marshmallow root has been used for centuries in the treatment of inflammation, specifically sore throats and stomach trouble because of it’s soothing “mucilage” quality. Marshmallow leaves were considered a delicious vegetable and often used in soups but the root was prescribed in the Renaissance era for sore throats and ulcerative symptoms to heal and soothe.

Slippery Elm was similarly used to reduce inflammation for all inflamed gastric conditions including ulcers and gastritis. It is soothing and healing on gut irritation but highly nutritious and easily digested by the body, making it an ideal food for one who is does not feel like eating.

Aloe Vera is one of the most popular digestive herbs for virtually any digestive condition. It is soothing, cooling and anti-inflammatory. In Ayurvedic medicine Aloe is used for excess Pitta conditions which include acid reflux, gastric or peptic ulcers and heartburn.

Nectaloe is flavoured with Mango, sweetened with stevia and comes in convenient single dose sachets for use when feeling the symptoms of heartburn and upper digestive discomfort.

Many people can identify the triggers for their symptoms but if you are suffering regularly, or have any concerns, consult your health care practitioner.
