Nattovena is the world’s first ultra-concentrated 4,000 FU pure nattokinase dietary supplement, in easy-to-swallow micro-caps. Nattovena contains ultra-refined, pharmaceutical grade, acid stable nattokinase. Nattovena's potency is unparalleled in its class. The standard for nattokinase manufacturing is a potency of up to 2,000 FU’s, or fibrinolytic units, of fibrin degrading activity per capsule. Nattovéna has broken the mold by providing 4,000 FU’s of activity, or double the ordinary dose, offering the strongest nattokinase activity per capsule, period. Nattovena is specifically formulated to address fibrin imbalances in the body. Fibrin is a protein that plays a major role in blood clotting and scar formation, making it an essential component of the healing process and vital for maintaining our health and general well-being. However, fibrin overproduction and impaired fibrin degradation has been implicated in many of today’s most common circulatory health concerns. What is Nattokinase? Nattokinase is a fibrinolytic (fibrin-dissolving) enzyme originally discovered within a Japanese fermented soybean food called natto. The dish consists of soybeans fermented with a strain of Bacillus subtilis bacteria that in turn produce the enzyme, which upon its discovery was later named after the respective dish. The fermented dish, natto, has a slimy texture, sour taste and strong smell that is very unappealing to some. Despite its questionable taste, natto has been shown in numerous studies to have many health benefits. For its use in nutritional supplements, the nattokinase enzyme is extracted and purified in a laboratory setting. Nattovena provides twice the potency of ordinary nattokinase products available and is naturally acid stable in the stomach since it is derived from a food source. This gives Nattovena the added benefit of not having to use an enteric coating or plastic to protect it from stomach acid. Nattovena’s formula contains the highest Fibrinolytic Unit (FU) activity among the major brands of nattokinase supplements, allowing it to hydrolyze 4,000 units of fibrin per capsule, thereby optimizing its cardiovascular benefits and promoting normal blood viscosity. How Does Nattokinase Work? Fibrin is naturally produced in the body by a protein called thrombin and is degraded by the body's own fibrinolytic enzyme, plasmin. Fibrin is typically produced during the recovery and healing processes caused by injury or other health concerns. Usually, these processes exist in a delicate balance; however, many conditions can impair fibrin degradation and lead to excessive levels of fibrin within the body. Nattokinase supplementation can tip the balance back in favor of fibrin removal using two different mechanisms. Firstly, nattokinase is a fibrinolytic enzyme, which means that it can literally dissolve excessive fibrin produced during the healing process. In fact, studies show that nattokinase is actually four times (4x) more potent than the body’s own plasmin in terms of fibrinolytic activity1. Secondly, nattokinase blocks the activity of plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1), which boosts its fibrinolytic capabilities even more. High levels of PAI-1 are directly linked to impaired fibrin degradation and removal, since PAI-1 blocks the body’s natural production of plasmin. By impeding PAI-1, nattokinase promotes the creation of more plasmin from plasminogen (its building block), increasing the amount of natural fibrinolytic enzymes created within the body2. Suggested Use Suggested Use: Take 1 capsule 2 to 3 times daily on an empty stomach. Higher doses may be taken as needed, but it is recommended to not exceed 15 capsules in any 24-hour period unless otherwise directed by a healthcare practitioner. WARNING: Do not take this product without the consent of your physician if you are currently taking blood thinning medications or if you are pregnant or nursing. Frequently Asked Questions What does Nattovena do? Studies have demonstrated that nattokinase improves overall circulation, promotes healthy blood viscosity, promotes healthy clotting factors, keeps blood cells from sticking together, and maintains blood pressure levels already within normal range.* How does it work? Nattovena supports normal clot formation by maintaining normal levels of blood coagulation factors.* It also supports normal clot breakdown by maintaining normal fibrinolytic (clot-dissolving) activity, due to its ability to also increase the production of the body's inherent fibrinolytic enzyme plasmin.* Why is fibrinolytic activity important? Fibrin is a vital protein that forms in response to trauma, injury, or even in cases of autoimmune conditions. The body can not only overproduce fibrin in these instances, but can also produce fibrin when there is no trauma or injury, which can lead to a bevy of unwanted symptoms. Fibrinolytic activity is the body’s natural way of breaking up excessive fibrin and unwanted clots. Is Nattovena safe? Nattokinase is derived from natto, which has been a regular food staple within Asian cuisine for centuries. Although nattokinase has many benefits, studies have shown that it also does not have demonstrative side effects, and the ingredient is considered GRAS (generally recognized as safe) within the US. Does Nattovena have value beyond just heart health? Due to the vast array of unhealthy conditions that excessive fibrin can bring, Nattovena has far greater value than a simple cardiovascular support product. Many aspects of health, from muscle recovery, to immune and joint health are directly related to fibrin and blood viscosity.* Is Nattovena safe to use in combination with prescription blood-thinning drug medication? You should always check with your health care provider prior to taking any new dietary supplements in combination with a prescription. However, Nattovena does not contain any vitamin K, so it is assumed to be compatible with these medications since their mode of action is based on inhibiting vitamin K. Nattovena is not contraindicated with aspirin, natural supplements, or antihypertensive medications although medical supervision when implementing any new supplement regimen is always recommended.

  He Shou Wu He Shou Wu (pronounced huh – similar to English "huh", but not as open – show woo) is one of the most popular and highly revered tonic herbs in Asian herbalism. He Shou Wu is the prepared tuberous root of Polygonum multiflorum, a plant that grows in the mountains of central and southern China. It shares the position as the primary essence (Jing) tonic of Chinese herbalism with the Gojiberry.  By virtue of its ability to accumulate tremendous quantities of Qi into its root, this herb can tonify the human and animal organs and can tonify and nourish the blood. He Shou Wu is not a stimulant. However, it is one of the greatest energy tonics known to mankind. Its action is cumulative, as any truly healthy tonic dietary supplement would be. Because it is a very mild sedative, it will calm the nervous system. So it can be said that He Shou Wu is both energizing and calming. That is the magic of a great tonic herb.   He Shou Wu helps maintain the strength and stability of the lower back and knees. It is used to maintain youthful sexual drive, normally abundant sperm count in men and to support the health of the ova in women. It is widely used in Asia to maintain the youthful condition and color of the hair. It can calm the nervous system. It has components that are potent antioxidants with gentle actions in the liver and the eyes.  Its strength partially comes from its remarkable ability to support and maintain the healthful cleaning functions of the kidney and liver, which in turn clean the blood.  He Shou Wu is a good source of iron. He Shou Wu contains potent antioxidants and in antioxidant-potentiating molecules. He Shou Wu supports the body’s innate ability to efficiently clear superoxide, the highly reactive free radical, from the body. Free radicals are produced at every moment of our life as part of the living process and our health depends upon our clearing them from our body on a moment to moment basis. This support generally comes from foods and herbs humans consume. It is widely believed that the SOD-generating capacity of HeShou Wu is one of the reasons it is considered by many to have “anti-aging” and “longevity increasing” activity. These actions help maintain healthy physical and mental functions and structures.   He Shou Wu contains zinc. Zinc is an essential trace mineral required by all forms of life. Numerous aspects of cellular metabolism are zinc-dependent. Zinc plays important roles in growth and development, the immune response, neurological function and reproduction. Zinc is important to our sexual and reproductive functions.  He Shou Wu has been found to support fundamental immunological functions. He Shou Wu has been found to improve adrenal gland functioning.  He Shou Wu is unsurpassed in its ability to provide deep, primordial energy (Jing, essence) to the cells of the body via the Kidney system as described in Chinese health philosophy. He Shou Wu supports the human body’s “functional reserve.”  He Shou Wu is widely used in Chinese tonic herbalism as a tonic to promote healthy aging by tonifying the Kidney and Liver functions, toning up Jing (vital essence), nourishing the blood, and fortifying the muscles, tendons and bones.  The Legend of He Shou Wu Li Ao from the Tang Dynasty (618-907) wrote a book called “The Legend of He Shou Wu” documenting in detail its discovery.  Neng Si is the name of the man who is said to have discovered He Shou Wu in China. “Neng Si was born with a weak constitution. Due to his chronic frailty, he had never been able to marry and as time went by had given up on the prospect of either marrying or bearing children. In addition, he had taken to strong liquor. Nevertheless, he was an enthusiastic follower of Taoism and often shadowed his Taoist teacher in the mountain.   “One day, at the age of 58, he fell into a drunken stupor in the forest. When he awoke, he observed a pair of vines entwined for more than 3 yards. He thought to himself that they appeared to be making love, and in a whimsical mood he dug up the root of the plant, which he took back to his cottage. No one in the local village recognized the herb. A hermit from the mountain saw it, however, and told him, "This climbing plant struck you as peculiar, now surely it is supposed to serve you as a divine tonic. Why don't you take it”?  “He agreed and ground up the root into powder and swallowed a small amount on an empty stomach. In seven days, he started to “realize the Tao of Muman.” He started to feel an unknown vitality flowing through his veins and after a little while he noticed certain urges starting to develop. Soon this previously hapless guy began to experience something very unfamiliar to him – incredible virility – he could barely control his sexual desire. Over the next several months, he became strong. He decided to continue taking the herb, doubling his dosage. In several years, his hair grew dark again, and his appearance became youthful. Over the next ten years, he fathered several boys and changed his name to Neng Si, meaning “Capable of Bearing Offspring.””  Though the herb called He Shou Wu’s was well famed as an anti-aging tonic and a fertility enhancing sex tonic, it did not gain much attention from the health cultivationists (preservationists) after the He family had made it famous. Revered herbalist Li Shi Zhen, who authored a book named The Great Herbalism (published in 1578), the greatest contribution to the development of Chinese herbal pharmacy, noted that though He Shou Wu had been established for a long while, few people were taking the herb at the time. A royal endorsement from an emperor changed that. Ming Dynasty Emperor Shi Zong (reigned from 1521 to 1566) was gifted an herbal elixir called Seven Treasure Beard Beautifying Pill. He enjoyed “great success,” fathering several royal princes and credited the herbal formula for his success. This formula, with He Shou Wu as the main ingredient, became an instant hit among the commoners and He Shou Wu became a household herb throughout Asia ever since. Li Ao’s Personal Commentary on He Shou Wu Li Ao, the Taoist sage who recounted the Legend of He Shou Wu, is famous as the sage whose walk “resembled a swift wind.” He had this to say regarding his personal experience with the herb He Shou Wu: "I will reveal to you an herbal secret. Taking He Shou Wu helped me to father children. Originally, I preferred peace of mind, and under no circumstances did I want to take this herb, because I had heard it said that it was ‘harmful to peace of mind’ (referring to its stimulation of sexual desire). However, my spouse took it accidentally and we attained the greatest happiness (the highest level of sexual ecstasy). Since then I have continued taking this miraculous herb.” The Story of Li Qing Yuen There is a famous story that has been widely spread about a man named Li Qing Yuen, who, as the tale goes, is said to have lived to be 252 years old. All evidence indicates that this is not possible. Therefore, I believe the story of Li Qing Yuen must be viewed as a legend. Nevertheless, it is widely believed in Asia that Li Qing Yuen did indeed live and that he lived to extended age – certainly to be a centenarian.  The story is worth telling because it expresses the deep interest the Chinese have had in the art of longevity and provides some excellent life lessons. According to the story, Li Qing Yuen was born in  the mountainous southwest of China, he ran away from home at the age of eleven with three travelers. These travelers were in the herbal trade. Together the boy and his three teachers traveled throughout China, Tibet, and Southeast Asia, encountering many dangerous situations, but all the while studying the herbal traditions of all the various regions. As Li Qing Yuen became older, he became a practicing herbalist, and was well known for his excellence of health and amazing vigor. He was particularly interested in Taoist life cultivation and had a deep personal interest in tonic herbs. One day, when he was around fifty years old, he met a very old man who, despite of his venerable old age, could out-walk Li Qing Yuen. This impressed Master Li very much because he believed that brisk walking was both a way to health and longevity and a sign of inner health. Li Qing Yuen inquired as to the old sage's secret. He was told that if every day he consumed a "soup" of an herb known as gou qi zi (Lycium chinensis fruit - known to us as Goji berries or Wolfberries) he would soon attain a new standard of health. Of course Li Qing Yuen knew about this Gojibut had not made it a central part of his daily herbal regimen. Li Qing Yuen did just what the old sage suggested and continued to consume Goji soup from the time forward. Because of his radiant health and longevity, he was greatly revered by all those who knew him and he had many disciples who followed him. Even at a very old age, his sight was keen and his legs were strong, and he continued to take his daily vigorous walks. One day, he was on a journey through treacherous mountains. In the mountains he met a Taoist hermit who was much older than him. Impressed by the great illumination of the old Taoist, Li Qing Yuen begged the sage to tell him his secrets. The old Taoist, recognizing the sincerity of Li, taught him some deep secrets of Taoist Yoga (also known as the "Inner Alchemy") and recommended that Li change his diet and consume Ginseng daily, combined with He Shou Wu. It is said that Master Li also changed his diet accordingly, so as to consume very little meat, and even limited his consumption of root vegetables. He also limited his consumption of grain. Instead, he focused mainly on steamed above-ground vegetables and herbs. He supposedly died in 1930, reportedly after a banquet presented in his honor by a government official. He had married during his lifetime numerous times and lived through many generations of his own descendants, of which he had many.  Ron’s Note: I first reported on this story in 1984 in the book “Chinese Tonic Herbs (Japan Publications).” However, though I have tried, I have found that primary sources of documentation for Li Qing Yuen’s extreme longevity are non-existent. The story had first been reported, according to the Guinness Book of World Records, in a 1933 news agency filing as "the oldest man on earth", having been born in 1680 and just died at 253. The Guinness Book first identified him as Li Chung-yun and later as Li Zhongyun (1993 edition). The Guinness Book noted that “Li Chung-yun was said to have maintained a youthful appearance to the end, crediting it to Taoist wisdom and healthy living.” The story is representative of a tradition that is rich in the lore of Taoists living to ages unimaginable by us. It is well known that among the Chinese population, the Taoists have always far outlived all other people in Asia. Many have lived to be centenarians and few died prematurely. The Taoist art of longevity, known as the "Way of Radiant Health" is one of the great legacies of the East. The Taoist arts of longevity include tonic herbalism, qi gong, tai ji quan, Taoist yoga, Taoist sexual techniques and many of the martial arts.  The Science of He Shou Wu “Prepared” or “not prepared,” that is the difference. The tuber of He Shou Wu (Polygonum multiflorum) must be “prepared” in order to be used as a regularly-consumed tonic herb. Unprepared He Shou Wu does not possess the tonic effects and can have unwanted side effects. The freshly picked tubers are sliced, stewed in black bean soup (in a proportion of 10 parts He Shou Wu to 1 part black beans) until the soup is exhausted. The “prepared” roots are then dried. That is all there is to the “preparation.” Of course, no chemicals are used in the making of “prepared” He Shou Wu.   Active Constituents The tuberous root of Polygonum multiflorum (He Shou Wu) has many active constituents. He Shou Wu is rich in anthraquinones, including many phospholipids such as lecithin (3.7%). A stilbene glycoside known as 2,3,5,4-tetrahydroxystilbene-2-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (henceforth refered to as “he shou wu super-glycoside”) is considered to be the principle active constituent responsible for He Shou Wu’s very powerful antioxidant activity. There are many similar stilbene glycosides present in He Shou Wu. The stilbeneglycosides in He Shou Wu are very similar to resveratrol. Several of the stilbene glycosides in He Shou Wu are stronger antioxidants than resveratrol. Prepared He Shou Wu extract increases the cellular antioxidant activity He Shou Wu supports the body’s innate ability to efficiently clear superoxide, the highly reactive pro-oxidant (free radical), from the body. This is a normal function that occurs trillions of times a day in every human being. All organisms maintain complex innate antioxidant systems to prevent damage by oxidation. Antioxidants are chemicals that reduce the rate of oxidation reactions. Oxidation reactions are chemical reactions that involve the transfer of electrons from one substance to an oxidizing agent.  Oxidation is a constant function of life that is accelerated by stress and many other factors. He Shou Wu is rich in potent antioxidants and in antioxidant-potentiating molecules.  Superoxide dismutase (SOD) Superoxide dismutase, generally referred to as SOD, is a class of closely related enzymes produced within the human body. Of all the antioxidants produced in the human body, SOD is king. SOD proteins are present in almost all aerobic cells and in almost all extracellular fluids. SOD transforms the superoxide radical into ions that are less reactive. These less reactive ions are then further transformed by the antioxidants catalase and glutathione into safe molecules. This transformation, called dismutation, is essential to life. He Shou Wu supports the normal dismutation process. SOD is much more powerful than any other antioxidant. No external antioxidant is comparable to SOD, as external antioxidants may deteriorate by the time they enter our blood stream and because they cannot match SOD’s performance in clearing free radicals.  He Shou Wu has been shown to help maintain youthful levels of SOD in laboratory animals even as they age. It is widely believed that the SOD generating capacity of He Shou Wu is one of the reasons it has been found to have anti-aging and longevity increasing activity. He Shou Wu enhances immunity He Shou Wu has been found to support fundamental immunological functions in mammals.  He Shou Wu enhances adrenocortical function He Shou Wu has been found to support adrenal gland functioning. He Shou Wu supports adrenal fortitude.  He Shou Wu traditionally functions as a Kidney tonic. Jing controls the functions of adrenal cortex.  He Shou Wu’s Blood Tonic Actions He Shou Wu enhances the proliferation of blood producing cells Scientific research supports He Shou Wu’s traditional function as a blood tonic. Prepared He Shou Wu can supports the hematopoietic(blood producing) function of the body. It does this by directly promoting the blood generating hematopoietic stem cells.  Improves red blood cell membranes Extracts of this herb have been demonstrated to help support the membranes of erythrocytes (red blood cells) and to support the growth and development of erythrocytes in test animals.  He Shou Wu is a rich source of lecithin which is an important raw material of red blood cell and other cell membranes (lecithin is also a major component of nervous tissues). Contains iron He Shou Wu contains iron, even more than other blood tonics such as Dang Gui and Goji. Supports Circulation Prepared He Shou Wu supports blood flow and in test animals.  Protects the Liver Classically, He Shou Wu is considered a Liver tonic. Many studies now support He Shou Wu’s protective and function-regulating actions on the liver. Throughout our lifetime liver cells continually replenish themselves. Adult humans do not die with the same liver they were born with. In experiments on mice, prepared He Shou Wu helps maintain healthy structural integrity of the liver. He Shou Wu acts as a powerful antioxidant in the liver. Furthermore, researchers have found that this herb can stabilize liver cells by supporting membrane mechanism. He Shou Wu is a good source of plant lecithin. He Shou Wu has a special tropism (attraction) to the liver.  A zinc supplement He Shou Wu contains zinc. The zinc content of prepared He Shou Wu is as high as 42 mg per 100 grams the herb. This is several dozen times higher than that of most herbs. Animal type foods are considered to be high in zinc, but they only have 3-5 mg per 100 gram, much lower than the 42 mg in He Shou Wu.  Zinc is an essential trace mineral required by all forms of life. Numerous aspects of cellular metabolism are zinc-dependent. Zinc plays important roles in growth and development, the immune response, neurological function, and reproduction. On the cellular level, the function of zinc can be divided into three categories: (1) regulatory, (2) catalytic, and (3) structural. Zinc supports the metabolism of testosterone, and supports sperm quality and motility. Effect on Memory Dietary supplementation with either ethanol or water extracts of He Shou Wu can help maintain brain function and support learning and memory ability. Potential Adverse Effects of He Shou Wu Adverse effects are not common (very rare) with extracts of properly prepared He Shou Wu. Potential adverse effects of this herb are mainly digestive canal reactions, usually resulting in thin stool in cases where the herb is not tolerated, and occasional light abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. Raw, unprepared He Shou Wu is a laxative and should not be consumed as a tonic herb, i.e. on a long term basis. Some companies of He Shou Wu products are unaware of this issue and sell unprepared He Shou Wu, resulting in adverse effects.  “Prepared” versus “raw” He Shou Wu The tuber of He Shou Wu must be “prepared” in order to be used as a regularly-consumed tonic herb. The roots are sliced, gently stewed in black bean soup (in a proportion of 10 parts He Shou Wu to 1 part black beans) until the soup is exhausted. The “prepared” roots are then dried. That is all there is to the “preparation.” Of course, no chemicals are used to prepare He Shou Wu.   The Toxicity Difference: Prepared He Shou Wu has extremely low toxicity.  He Shou Wu has been used for over two thousand years as a tonic herb in China and other Asian regions. In Asia, He Shou Wu is considered to be extremely safe and suitable for long term and daily use. The LD50 tests for PREPARED He Shou Wu resulted in NO DEATHS, even after 1000 g/kg. On the other hand, the LD50 of RAW(Unprepared) He Shou Wu is 50g/kg, This means even if rats consume their body weight worth of prepared He Shou Wu, they survived. Prepared He Shou Wu is one of the safest herbs or foods known to science.  With an LD50  value of greater than 1000 g/kg, We are only recommending 6-12 capsules (about 3-6 grams) of He Shou Wu per day as a long term tonic dose. [LD50: The LD50 Alcohol Percolate Test – generally referred to simply as the LD50  is a standard toxicity test used in scientific research. The higher the number, the safer the test object. LD50 (Lethal Dose50) is the amount of a substance that, when administered by a defined route of entry (e.g. oral, injection or dermal, etc.) over a specified period of time, is expected to cause the death of 50 per cent of a defined animal population. If no deaths have occurred when the test subject has consumed its weight in the test substance without ANY deaths, the test substance is considered safe beyond question. A score of 1000 g/kg means that the test animal can consume its weight in test substance with 50% dying. But to have NO deaths at 1000 g/kg means the LD50 is actually much higher, but researchers tend to stop there because no animal or human will ever consume its weight in any substance in a short period of time.]  Chemical Constituent Difference – Why Prepared He Shou Wu Is Much Milder and Safer than Unprepared He Shou Wu The conjugated anthraquinones (such as emodin) present in unprepared He Shou Wu are laxative. After preparation, the amount of conjugated anthraquinones in He Shou Wu decreases, while the free form anthraquinones that have many health-supporting and protective benefits significantly increase. This is why prepared He Shou Wu has a much milder or nil laxative effect compared to raw, and why prepared He Shou Wu is so safe and effective.   Efficacy and Function Difference: The “preparation” eliminates the laxative effect of He Shou Wu and brings out the tonic effect. In addition to toxicity elimination, the special preparation process also enhances He Shou Wu’s therapeutic efficacy. He Shou Wu is known to support macrophages. In a test where mice were fed He Shou Wu prepared by different methods, or not prepared at all, at the dose of 6g/kg, only the prepared He Shou Wu that was stewed and steamed with black bean soup for 32 hours was shown to support the phagocytic activity of abdominal macrophage. He Shou Wu that was raw or prepared differently showed no obvious results.  Raw, un-prepared He Shou Wu is used as a laxative in Chinese herbalism, and is not used in tonic herbalism.  Dragon Herbs He Shou Wu products are always made from PREPARED He Shou Wu. Unfortunately, many nutritional supplement companies and marketers in America are unaware of this distinction between prepared and un-prepared He Shou Wu (Polygonummultiflorum). Raw He Shou Wu is of course less expensive, and that is often the driving force behind the way many herb companies make their purchasing decisions. As a result, He Shou Wu is sometimes blamed for the unwanted side effect of loose stool that results from the use of the incorrect herb (raw He Shou Wu). Again, Dragon Herbs is extremely aware of this issue and only uses PREPARED He Shou Wu to make its tonic products.* Dragon Herbs He Shou Wu Extract Capsules Concentration: He Shou Wu powdered extract is an 8:1 “pure yield” (100% natural) powdered extract of the highest grade Prepared Polygonummultiflorum tubers grown in the remote high mountains of Yunnan province, China.  Specifications: 100 capsules 450 mg each Precautions:  He Shou Wu is considered to be a very mild and safe herb. Mild gastrointestinal disturbance, characterized by soft stool, is the only side effect associated with Polygonum multiflorum. However, moderate doses of processed He Shou Wu rarely result in such an effect. Should this occur, the herb may be combined with certain other herbs, and the problem can be eliminated. Consult your herbalist. Again, this side effect is rare. Ingredients: He Shou Wu (Polygonum multiflorum) root extract (Organically Grown, Certified by ECOCERT). Other Ingredients: Vegetarian capsules**, rice hull extract.

300g per Container (1 scoop per day will last 30 days approx). GREENS FOR LIFE CONTAINS ALL THE INGREDIENTS FOR A HEALTHY BODY AND MIND 1. Barley Grass extract Organic Barley Grass powder (a powerful 10:1 extract of young barley leaves and the main ingredient of Greens for Life) is the most alkaline food that we know. It neutralized excess acid in the body, so it can be eliminated through the kidneys, restoring a healthy acid/alkaline balance and maintaining a neutral pH-value. Barley Grass is a unique food source. It is harvested when it is only 8-10 inches high. It contains more vitamins, minerals, enzymes and anti-oxidants per gram than any other food source. Besides restoring the acid/alkaline balance of the body Barley Grass eliminates all deficiencies caused by bad eating habits and a poor diet. Barley Grass contains: 260 times the vitamin A of leafy vegetables 8 times the vitamin C of oranges 128 times the folic acid of tomatoes 16 times the protein of milk 11 times the calcium of milk 37 times the calcium of whole grains 5 times the natural iron of spinach 42 times the vitamin B6 of bananas Barley Grass consists for 45% of light weight protein, 90% of which is absorbed by the body and contains more Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids than any other vegetable food source. Barley Grass promotes a healthy bowel function. The high quantity of Chlorophyll it contains cleanses the bowels of undigested protein and other waste products. Barley Grass is an excellent food source for the intestinal flora that helps us digest our food. The Chlorophyll in Barley Grass promotes the formation of blood cells in the body. When iron or chlorophyll is taken separately it has a very limited effect in fighting anemia, because other minerals (like natural copper) are needed to enable these substances to produce hemoglobin. A deficiency in natural iron or copper can easily result in anemia, especially among women. All necessary minerals for producing hemoglobin are present in Greens for Life. Barley Grass helps restore the intestinal flora after it has been damaged by the use of penicillin or other antibiotics and pharmaceutical drugs. It also prevents the growth of harmful bacteria, yeast and fungal infections. Barley Grass possesses great cleansing powers. It is especially effective in detoxifying the liver, kidneys and digestive tract. It improves the digestion of food, the absorption of nutrients and the elimination of waste products. The enzymes in Barley Grass protect the body against free radicals and promote the formation of new cells. Especially the rare enzyme Super Oxide Dismutase (SOD) plays an important role in this process. Barley Grass also contains a large amount of polypeptides (short-chain amino acids) which are indispensable as building blocks for new cells. Greens for Life contains over 4000 mg of 10:1 Barley Grass powder per daily portion. That is far more than all the other Greens products. The amount of Barley Grass in Greens for Life is not the only reason why it is such a superior product. Greens for Life contains a number of other ingredients that support the alkalizing and cleansing qualities of Barley Grass and contribute to a healthy body, a well functioning immune system and help fight and even reverse the ageing process.   2. Fruits & Greens™ Greens for Life contains the unique, patented Fruits & Greens formula. This 100:1 formula is a highly concentrated extract of 27 different fruits, vegetables and grains. Fruits & Greens contains as much vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and other nutrients per gram as 100 gram of fresh fruit and vegetables! It supports the alkalizing and rejuvenating qualities of Barley Grass and provides the body with many additional nutrients and anti-oxidants from fruit and vegetables. The ingredients of Fruits & Greens work in synergy and are far more effective than the single components added to many other Greens.   3. Spirulina and chlorella Greens for Life contains high quantities of spirulina and chlorella. These microscopic algae have gone a little out of fashion over the last years, which is wholly undeserved. Like Barley Grass they contain large quantities of chlorophyll (energy from sunlight), and nutrients that are important for the body, like amino acids, vitamin B-12 and organic iron. Chlorella is also a very effective detoxifier. Because of environmental pollution and the use of chemical fertilizers and insecticides, toxins collect in our bodies and are deposited in muscle and fatty tissue. Because of its cracked cell structure chlorella has the unique property to bind and eliminate these toxins from the body and cleanse the bloodstream, tissue and organs.   4. Enzyme complex Enzymes are indispensable for our digestion. They split proteins, fats and carbohydrates and convert them into nutrients that the body can absorb. Enzymes like L-Glutathione are very effective anti-oxidants that prevent damage to the body by attacking and eliminating free radicals. The enzyme complex in Greens for Life ensures that your metabolism and digestion can regain their proper function if they have been impaired by too much acidity, so the body can absorb more vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants. The enzyme complex in Greens for Life also improves the absorption and effectiveness of all other supplements we use.   5. Combined soluble and non-soluble fiber complex. One of the problems with our modern diet is that after our food has been refined and processed, it contains hardly any fibers. The food industry provides us with convenience foods and snacks that don't do much more than eliminate feelings of hunger. These convenience foods contain hardly any real nutrition and are in no relation to the healthy, fiber-rich foods people ate 50 years ago. The lack of sufficient fibers in our foods results in a disrupted bowel function. As a result partly digested food remains behind in the intestines. This serves as a food source for harmful bacteria, yeast or fungi growth. Candida, which is a form of yeast we all carry our lower intestines, does no harm as long as we eat a balanced diet. If it becomes pathogenic because of a disturbed intestinal flora, it can cause very serious health problems throughout the body. Food waste that remains in the intestines for too long can also cause inflammation and intestinal tumors. The combined soluble and non-soluble fiber complex in Greens for Life promotes the healthy functioning of the intestines, helps keep the bowels clean and prevents the formation of harmful yeast growth and fungi.   6. Lactospore™ Our intestinal tract contains beneficial as well as harmful bacteria. The beneficial bacteria help us digest our food. As long as they are in the majority your bowels are doing fine. But a one-sided diet, slightly spoiled or contaminated food and chronic acidity allows harmful bacteria to grow and cause intestinal problems, yeast infections, acute food poisoning and other health problems. To maintain a healthy balance between good and bad bacteria we often use lactobacillus cultures in the form of capsules or as an addition to functional foods like yogurts or Yakult. The problem with these supplements is that many have a very poor track record in surviving the acidity of a hostile stomach environment and have little or no effect after arriving in the intestines. The lactobacillus cultures you buy at the pharmacy or health food store often have already expired on the shelf, because they need to be stored in a refrigerated and dark place in order to spring to life in the intestines. Greens for Life contains a so-called Lactospore™ culture that is capable of surviving hostile stomach acid. This is because it is not a full-grown culture, but a lactospore. Their naturally micro-encapsulated form protects them during their voyage through the stomach. In the intestines they develop into a full-blown lactobacillus culture. Once activated this culture attacks and eliminates harmful bacteria, improves the bowel function, fights diarrhea and food poisoning, repairs the intestinal flora after the use of antibiotics or other pharmaceutical drugs and helps restore a healthy pH-value of the intestines.   7. Policosanol The policosanol in Greens for Life is a complex of fatty alcohols made from the wax of honey bees. It is very effective in lowering cholesterol levels by blocking the production of cholesterol in the liver. Clinical studies in which almost 30.000 people took part showed that daily use of Policosanol resulted in a measurable improvement of cholesterol levels within 6 to 8 weeks. After 6 months a daily dosis of 15 mg Policosanol resulted in a lowering of the LDL-cholesterol of 20- 25%. In patients who received 30 mg the LDL-cholesterol levels where lowered by as much as 25-30%. The HDL-cholesterol levels (the good cholesterol) increased over the same period by an average of 14%. The Policosanol in Greens for Life is a very important nutrient for maintaining a healthy cholesterol level and cardiovascular health.   8. Green tea extract Green tea is one of the most underrated beverages. Modern research has confirmed what the Chinese already knew thousands of years ago: Green Tea possesses a great number of preventive and healing qualities: it plays an active role in the prevention of cardiovascular disease it helps to lower cholesterol levels it helps maintain a healthy blood pressure it protects against ageing of the brain it lowers the triglycideride count in the blood it strengthens the immune system it has anticarcinogenic qualities and protects against tumours it helps maintain a healthy prostate it contains very powerful anti-oxidants it helps prevent tooth decay Green tea contains many vitamins and minerals, but the most active substance in green tea are the polyphenols, especially a polyphenol called EGCG (epigallocathegin gallate). These polyphenols are very effective free radical scavengers and give green tea its antioxidant powers. Green tea also protects against bacteria that cause placque and tooth decay.   Greens for Life and your diet Greens for Life makes a success of any diet. It provides the body with all the necessary nutrients, preventing any short-term deficiencies caused by the diet. It optimizes your metabolism, bowel function and digestion, making your diet more effective so you can loose weight faster. Greens for Life contains high-quality, easily digestible proteins. One daily portion contains only 41 calories, 1.5gram of fat and 6.5gram of carbohydrates, so it will not interfere with weight loss. Because of its low carbohydrate content Greens for Life is especially well suited as an addition to any low carb diet. Greens for Life also prevents constipation and guarantees a normal bowel function, which can get severely disrupted when you follow a low carb diet.   Greens for Life is a must for sports enthusiasts who use protein supplements Many sports enthusiasts who want to achieve quick weight and muscle gain use supplements that contain large quantities of protein, like Whey Protein Concentrate or Meal Replacement Formulas. These supplements are highly acid-forming. Extensive use of these supplements will invariably result in high levels of acid in the body and a disturbed acid/alkaline balance. The Barley Grass in Greens for Life is the ideal supplement to alleviate this problem and restore a neutral pH-balance in the body. Greens for Life is an essential addition to any exercise or weight gain program that includes taking protein supplements. Using Greens for Life will immediately result in more energy and stamina and less acidification of the muscles during heavy workouts.

Stem-Kine 60 Capsules (Aiden Products) Stem-Kine is a clinically proven proprietary stem cell supplement that stimulates your body to double the release of circulating stem cells, revitalizing your health, wellness, and regenerative capabilities.1,2 Proven in Human Studies Other supplements have studies on fruit flies or in petri dishes. We have demonstrated Stem-Kine’s potency in human clinical trials, the only way to truly demonstrate whether or not a supplement actually works! The links below take you to the free peer-reviewed journal articles that contain the human research behind Stem-Kine! Clinical Trial #1 Clinical Trial #2 Research on Stem-Kine 1. Circulating endothelial progenitor cells: a new approach to anti-aging medicine? 2. Nutraceutical augmentation of circulating endothelial progenitor cells and hematopoietic stem cells in human subjects How Does Stem-Kine Work? Stem-Kine’s powerful ingredients contain a proprietary, heat-treated extract of Lactobacillus Fermentum and the powerful antioxidants astragalus root, goji berry, and green tea. This cell wall extract gives Stem-Kine its “fertilizer effect” and releases stem cells into the bloodstream & protects those cells from oxidative stress. Supplemental ingredients include beta-1,3-glucan, vitamin D3, and ellagic acid to further protect stem cells from oxidative stress.   Lactobacillus Fermentum Containing patented and patent-pending fermented blends of astragalus root, goji berry, and green tea, our proprietary ingredient nourishes the bone marrow to release more stem cells into the blood stream. Once these stem cells are in circulation, they can hone to sources of injury within the body and begin the repair process.   Beta 1,3 Glucan A natural immune booster, beta glucans have been shown in multiple research studies to trigger a cascade of events that help regulate the immune system, making it stronger and more efficient. Beta glucans are also extremely important for heart health. A recent research study showed that people who ingested more beta glucans, had a significantly greater reduction of total cholesterol and low density lipoprotein (LDL).   Ellagic Acid Sourced from nature’s powerful antioxidant, pomegranate, ellagic acid harbors a powerful chemoprotective effect by reducing oxidative stress. This ingredient helps to protect your stem cells from free radicals.   Vitamin D3 For more than a century, scientists have recognized that Vitamin D3 is involved in bone health. Not only that, it is paramount in immune support & low levels of Vitamin D3 are linked to depression, back pain, cancer, impaired immunity, and much more. How to take?   Take 2-4 capsules per day as part of a healthy diet. Can be taken with or without food.   Loading dose = 2 servings AM/PM (4 capsules daily)   Maintenance dose = 1 servings AM (2 capsules daily) Overview: We suggest taking a double dose for the first bottle (4 capsules daily) to optimize the release of stem cells over the first 2-week period of time. Continuing with a maintenance dose of 2 capsules/day will help to nourish these stem cells and protect them from oxidative stress. Responses to Stem-Kine may differ, and some individuals may want to continue taking 4 capsules daily to maintain optimal effects. As with any new supplement, it is advised to consult your physician before using. If you are using any prescription or over-the-counter medicines, are unaware of your current medical condition, or have any pre-existing medical condition(s), consult with your physician before using this product. There are no known side effects from taking Stem-Kine.

Frame Builder   The Main Herbs in Frame Builder   Eucommia Bark   Eucommia Bark was the second herb ever described in a written text on herbs in China, playing second fiddle only to Ginseng, “the King of Herbs.” Shen Nong, the great founder of Chinese herbalism, described Eucommia bark as “a superior herb that can prolong life.” A “superior herb,” by definition, is an herb that may be consumed daily for the purpose of promoting health and well being without side effects. Eucommia Bark has remained a virtual icon of tonic herbalism in Asia for thousands of years. It has been consumed by billions of people, and is consumed by millions of people today as a superior, life-enhancing tonic.   Eucommia Bark is traditionally used to tonify the Kidney, Liver and Heart functions, as described in Chinese health theory. It has a warm energy and is considered to be very strengthening, but it is not a “stimulant.” In fact, Eucommia Bark calms the nerves while strengthening the core of the body.   Eucommia Bark is the primary plant-sourced herb in Chinese herbalism used to tonify the Kidney Yang functions. Kidney Yang functions include such issues as our inner power, sexual vitality, structural integrity, mental creativity and resistance to disease.Eucommia is a superb Yang Jing tonic because it is simultaneously powerful and gentle. Its safety has been well established over many centuries. There has been no challenge to its safety in either historical or modern literature. It may be used continuously without causing over-excitation or imbalance of any sort. According to Chinese health theory, the Jing stored in the Kidneys is a determining factor in our potential longevity. Diminished Jing will result in premature aging and early death. Eucommia Bark helps restore spent Jing and helps maintain healthy levels of Jing once Jing levels are normal.   Eucommia Bark is traditionally considered to be particularly beneficial to the lower back, legs, and to the skeletal structure. And although Eucommia Bark is primarily known as a powerful Yang Jing tonic, it is also a strong Yin Jing nourishing herb. Because it provides both Yang and Yin, it is a superb herb for men and women alike and can be used by almost anybody to promote the functions of the endocrine system, to strengthen the physical structure, to promote sexual functions, to enhance normal growth, to promote healing, to promote the healthy functions of the cardiovascular system, and to enhance resistance to infection. EucommiaBark is thus the quintessential example of a safe, mild and potent Kidney tonic that builds Jing, Qi and Shen, with an emphasis on its quintessential Jing building capability.    Eucommia Bark's first fame is in its Kidney tonifying effects. It is in fact the primary herb in Chinese tonic herbalism for building a strong, sturdy, skeletal structure and strong, flexible joints.  It is used to strengthen the bones, ligaments and tendons, and has been used for centuries to help mend damage to these tissues, whether the damage is due to stress, age or trauma. Eucommia Bark is also the primary tonic herb of choice to strengthen the lower back and knees. Traditionally, it has been used to help with problems in the joints, including pain, stiffness, dislocation, swelling and weakness*. However, it is not a mere “remedy.” It is a tonic herb that strengthens structural tissue and improves structural competency at a fundamental level. Therefore, it is preferably used as a tonic herb to maintain the structural integrity of the body so that breakdowns in this system are much less likely, even as we age or are exposed to stress.   Drynaria Rhizome   Drynaria Rhizome tonifies the Kidney, promotes mending of bones and related structural tissues and stimulates hair growth. Drynariais considered to be the most important herb in the Chinese pharmacopoeia for healing damaged bone and ligaments. It is used in all formulas for broken bones and torn ligaments. It is also useful in the treatment of and recovery from sprains, contusions (bruises) and stress fractures. Drynaria has been explored deeply by martial arts practitioners in Asia for over a thousand years and its efficacy is very well established. In fact, the literal name of the herb in Chinese is “Mender of Shattered Bones.” Drynaria is usually used in combination with Dipsacus and other herbs to deal with the specific problems. Drynaria can be used like all Yang Jing tonics to strengthen the lower back and knees. It seems to have special efficacy in a high percentage of cases of tinnitus (ringing in the ears) and bleeding gums. Though it is traditionally considered to be effective for toothaches, I recommend you get to the dentist and get the problem fixed.    Dipsacus Root   Dipsacus

Did you know that magnesium is an essential mineral that is required by virtually every cell in your body?  Perhaps the most high-profile process that magnesium is used for is metabolising nutrients and turning them into energy. EASE Magnesium is a natural solution that enters your bloodstream through your skin to help fulfil your magnesium needs. It does not cause stinging, burning or itching and will not leave a sticky residue on the skin. Benefits Did you know that magnesium, an essential mineral that is required by virtually every cell, is especially important to muscles? Magnesium is an essential building block for hundreds of chemical processes in the body. Your muscles’ ability to contract and relax is highly dependent on how much magnesium your body is getting. Other things affected by magnesium include: Nerve function Cardiac activity Blood pressure regulation Hormonal interactions Bone health Synthesis of proteins, fats and nucleic acids Additionally: It is the fourth most abundant mineral in your body Exists in over 300 different bodily enzymes Is found primarily in your bones (half of your total body magnesium) Plays a role in your body’s detoxification processes Aids your energy metabolism and protein synthesis Helps guide a large number of physiological functions Is required by glutathione (the “master antioxidant”) for synthesis   Is especially valuable for supporting your brain health The list goes on. The bottom line is that magnesium is the multi-tasking mineral your body needs and is probably not getting enough of. Perhaps the most high-profile process that magnesium is used for is metabolising nutrients and turning them into energy. Magnesium activates enzymes which help produce something called ATP (adenosine triphosphate). Why is ATP important? ATP plays a crucial role in the metabolic process. When your body breaks down ATP, the energy that is released is used by your muscles. The more you exercise and the harder you exercise, the faster your body burns up the energy released from breaking down ATP. If you’re not getting enough magnesium, it can result in low energy levels and problems with muscle function. Additional Information Are you deficient? Did you know up to 80% of people are magnesium deficient? And that is just the people showing symptoms of deficiency. Magnesium deficiency is currently deemed a "silent epidemic", as often it's effects are not felt until very advanced and difficult health conditions have already developed. How is it that so many people are not getting enough from their diets or are having trouble absorbing what they do eat? It’s an important question. If magnesium deficiency gets out of hand it can lead to all kinds of serious health issues. Below is a short list of some of the factors that can cause magnesium deficiency: Regularly drinking caffeinated beverages, soda or alcohol - Sodas contain phosphates that attach themselves to the magnesium inside your body, making it unavailable for absorption. Plus, your kidneys filter and excrete excess magnesium and other minerals as part of their normal function. Taking calcium supplements - Women should be especially wary of the effects of certain supplements on magnesium absorption. If you have been instructed to take a calcium supplement to prevent bone loss or to treat osteoporosis, this could be the reason for low magnesium levels. Experiencing constant or chronic stress - The Nutritional Magnesium Association website cites a study that investigated chronic stress and magnesium levels. It was found that chronically stressed individuals had lower magnesium stores when compared with control groups. On the flip side, those who had sufficient magnesium in their systems exhibited fewer signs of stress. In other words, stress causes magnesium loss while, at the same time, getting adequate magnesium protects against stress. How to get Magnesium? Ease is the purest, fastest acting form of bio-available magnesium available.  Absorbed directly through your skin delivering a calming energy that your body needs. This powerful supplement is easily absorbed into the skin, enters the blood stream and goes directly to work in your body, affecting aches and pains, helping to support the nervous system and reducing fatigue leaving you feeling revitalised, supple and full of beans. Delivers 27.2mg of magnesium per spray Fast acting magnesium  100% pure solution Why a spray? Oral magnesium supplements are known to have poor absorption rates and may cause diarrhea and other gastrointestinal problems in larger doses. One of the big benefits of a magnesium spray is how effectively it is absorbed when it’s sprayed onto the skin. By bypassing the digestive system it goes straight into the bloodstream and is delivered to the cells that need it. Suggested Use 30-50 sprays on wrists, tops of the feet, underarms, backs of knees and hips. Ingestion not recommended. Best absorbed after a hot shower or bath. Shelf-Life/Storage Instructions Keep bottle capped and store in a cool, dry place, out of direct sunlight. When stored properly, spray will remain fresh for 36 months.

Vitamins K2 and D3 regulates ‘calcium metabolism’ - a process that supports the movement of calcium into your gut and out of your gut.  Both vitamins are necessary to prevent your soft tissue from calcifying, and help deliver calcium to the all right places in your body.Most people are deficient in vitamins K2 and D3. K2 and D3 are not easily bioavailable in the foods we eat. That’s why it’s important that you supplement the two vitamins for optimal health. Regulate Calcium Metabolism Prevent Fractures Better Bone Health Cardiovascular Support Immune System Support Calcium is the most abundant mineral in your body99% of calcium occurs in bones and teeth. The remaining 1% found in the blood and soft tissues. Calcium is what helped your bones grow during your childhood. Adequate intake of calcium combats the decline of bone mass, supports bone recovery, and prevents fractures.Research shows that a 10% increase in bone mass at the end of adolescence can lead to a 50% decrease in the risk of fractures later in life. This alone shows the importance of getting enough calcium intake throughout all stages of life - especially among post-menopausal women, children and older adults.K2 promotes heart healthCalcium is required to build and maintain healthy bones. But did you know that excess calcium can get deposited in your arteries, leading to arterial stiffening and potential heart disease? Vitamin K2 activates the matrix Gla protein (MGP), which binds excess calcium to bones and prevents it from depositing into your arteries.D3 is a powerful immune-boosterVitamin D3 plays an important role in your immune function. For an efficient defense against invading pathogens, your immune cells, specifically T cells, require high levels of vitamin D3. If there isn’t a sufficient supply of D3 in your body, you’re more susceptible to illness and disease.K2 and D3 go hand-in-handVitamin D3, sometimes known as the “sunshine vitamin” is naturally synthesized when our skin is exposed to sunlight. It plays a vital role in calcium absorption in the intestine. Almost 99% of your vitamin D supply is used to regulate calcium, with the remaining supply used to strengthen the immune system and help maintain muscle strength.Without sufficient levels of vitamin K2, it is difficult for calcium to be deposited into our bones. When not deposited in our bones, excess calcium can be deposited in the cardiovascular system, where it can have harmful effects. Vitamin K2 prevents this from happening.Calcium is a powerful bone builderCombining vitamin D3 and vitamin K2 promotes healthy calcium metabolism and therefore healthy bone and teeth mineralization, muscle strength and recovery, cardiovascular health and immune system function.Supplement FactsServing Size: 0.5 mL (17 drops)Servings Per Container 30 Amount Per Serving % Daily Value* Vitamin D (as Vitamin D3) 1000IU 25mcg 125% Vitamin K (as Vitamin K2) 200mcg 167%       FAQs How should I take K2D3?The typical Western diet does not contain a sufficient amount of vitamin K2, and as such, supplementation is beneficial to everyone. Simply squeeze 17 drops directly on the tongue, or into a glass of water or juice and mix well.What is the recommended dosage for K2D3?Taking 0.5mL (17 drops) is the optimal dosage. We recommend monitoring the body’s response in the first days of taking K2D3 and reducing the dosage, as needed.What is the vitamin K2 as MK-7?Vitamin K activates proteins that play a role in blood clotting, calcium metabolism and heart health. One of its most important functions is to regulate calcium deposition. Vitamin K2 as MK-7 activates the greatest proportion of osteocalcin. Once activated, osteocalcin binds calcium in the bloodstream for transport into the bone matrix, and it also activates the Gla protein which helps to ensure calcium is transported to bones and not areas where it can be harmful.What is the vitamin D3?Vitamin D3 - sometimes called the “sunshine vitamin” - plays an important role in your immune health and the absorption of calcium. If you live in an area with little to no sunlight, it’s important that you supplement vitamin D3.

Perfect your pearly whites with an ultra-minty, bio-mineral tooth spa. A tiny pearl sized tooth-mask of natural nano-minerals will seal and brighten teeth as a burst of peppy plant power freshens breath, tongue, and gums. Brush as usual and/or apply with a dry toothbrush and leave on for a few minutes before rinsing to experience triple mint condition. Triple Mint Enamelizer Toothpaste elevates your oral care to bacterial-balanced coolness. Peppermint, Spearmint, and Wild Mint are swirled into icy-cleanliness for the freshest breath melded with biocompatible Nano-hydroxyapatite that takes your smile to the peak of bright, super-smooth teeth. Nano-hydroxyapatite is the main mineral in enamel and helps keep teeth looking white and feeling smooth by sealing and smoothing the surface of the enamel. Directions: Put a small dab on a dry toothbrush and coat the teeth. Leave on for a few minutes for a re-enamlizing tooth mask, then brush and rinse. Follow with a dental serum of Yogi, Mint + Myrrh, or Happy Gum Drops for a boost, and the 8 Steps to Successful Oral Care. This toothpaste formula is awesome for children, horses, and dogs too. Spa option: Apply a small amount to silicone dental tray and leave on for 20 minutes. Organic Virgin Coconut Oil - Cocos nucifera This diverse lipid is a caring carrier oil and botanical-biotic coconspirator that balances oral ecology. This optimal oil soothes the oral tissue and gently removes bacteria that cause bad breath. Saponified Olive Oil - Olea europaea This lovely saponified oil captures the nourishing, moisturizing properties of Olive with an enhanced ability to remove plaque from teeth. Saponification is a natural chemical reaction that occurs when the oil is treated with a highly alkaline solution. Baking Soda - Sodium bicarbonate Teeth thrive when they are bathed in a sea of sweet saliva, and baking soda buffers and neutralizes food acids. In addition to being an effective cleaning polish, baking soda is gentle. It has significantly lower abrasiveness than the cleaning agents of chalk and silica that are used in commercial toothpastes, and baking soda’s natural alkalinity neutralizes bacterial acidity. Relative Dentin Abrasivity (RDA) measures how abrasive a substance is on the tooth’s dentin. A higher RDA value indicates an increased chance of tooth abrasion. Baking soda’s RDA is a mere 7, which means it is too soft to damage the teeth. In comparison, Crest is 106, Colgate Total’s is 70, and Arm & Hammer Dental Care toothpaste with 65% baking soda is 35. Nano-hydroxyapitate (HAp) HAp is a biocompatible mineral form of calcium apatite that naturally occurs in our teeth, saliva, and bones. Hydroxyapatite is found in dentin and is the main mineral in enamel. It helps keep teeth looking white by sealing the pores of the surface of the enamel. In the 1970s, NASA studied HAp to help prevent bone loss in astronauts related to zero-gravity conditions. Since then it has been used in professional oral care fields. Many dentists find it both superior to and safer than fluoride. Peppermint - Mentha piperita Peppermint’s cool breezy taste gives you long-lasting fresh breath. Our Peppermint is a genuine distillation of fresh leaves and has been apprising oral preparations since antiquity. The Peppermint in commercial toothpaste is artificial menthol and only offers synthetic flavor, while real Peppermint is a potent and pleasant friend for oral care. It also inhibits the bacteria that cause bad breath. Spearmint - Mentha veridis Sprightly Spearmint is Peppermint’s softer, more understated, cousin. Fresh, fragrant Spearmint soothes the senses with whispers of minty magnificence! The ancient Greeks chose Spearmint to scent their bath water, while medieval populations used the herb to freshen breath and clean teeth. Like its cousin Peppermint, Spearmint also inhibits the bacteria that cause bad breath. Wild Mint - Mentha arvensis Double the coolness of Peppermint, Wild Mint is a wealth of menthol that gives all mint oils their icy potency. A single sniff or a drop on the tongue is a refreshing pick me up. As with Spearmint and Peppermint, Wild Mint inhibits bacterial growth and promotes sweet breath. Tea Tree - Melaleuca alternifolia Traditional Tea Tree is an herbaceous Herculean do-all. It is naturally packed with magnificent mouth attendants. Potent plant compounds of cineole and propanol work to refresh the mouth, prevent tartar build-up, and banish the bacteria that cause bad breath. Steam distilled in Australia and studied extensively for its effective oral activity by the Australian Dental Journal, Tea Tree oil evokes a super-clean, piney-clean aroma. Sweet Thyme - Thymus linalool Thyme is a potent plant, and Sweet Thyme is a rarer, gentler, yet mightily effective variety of the Thyme species. It is a timely toner that balances oral secretions. Sweet Thyme is also a potent botanical-biotic that banishes bad breath bacteria.
