If you have trouble falling asleep, you are said to be Heart Yin deficient. If you have trouble staying asleep, you are said to be Heart Blood deficient. Therefore, if you have trouble falling asleep, you will consume herbs that build Heart Yin – that is, a Heart Yin tonic. If you have trouble staying asleep, you will take a Heart Blood tonic. These formulations are designed to rebalance the situation, not just to knock you out. Sleep is an essential element of health. Without deep sleep, physical and emotional disorders are inevitable. In order to sleep soundly, you need to be able to relax. If the body and mind are in balance and the systems are in harmony, you should sleep very well. In that case, you should need no special herbs to help you to fall asleep or to stay asleep. Achieving that state of balance is the goal of taking Chinese tonic herbs. Therefore, the following program should be considered only a temporary step on the path toward radiant health. Certain formulations are very useful when consumed prior to bed time. They are Shen stabilizing formulations that allow you to let go of the problems of the world, at least for the time while you are sleeping. Lights Out is a powerful Shen stabilizing sleep aid. This formula helps you to relax and thus to fall asleep easily and without side effects. It’s main active ingredient is L-Theanine, which promotes sound, deep, satisfying sleep when used in combination with sedative herbs. Sleep is sound and peaceful. Bupleurum and Dragon Bone Combination is the premier anti-stress formula used in Asian medicine. If you have difficulty sleeping due to tension, this formula may be the answer to the problem. It is relaxing and is especially good for strong people who can’t sleep because of the stresses of work and relationships. Ginseng and Zizyphus Combination is a formula gets at the root of restlessness and insomnia. It is not a sleeping pill.  However, over a relatively short period of time it can prove very effective. Furthermore, you will feel much more energetic during the day. Ginseng and Zizyphus Combination is a major formula for the relief of the type of insomnia where it is difficult to fall asleep. This formula is specifically suited to those who are experiencing irritability, agitation, insomnia and lack of stability of Shen, mental and emotional instability, absentmindedness, heart palpitations, constipation, and sores on the tongue or inside of the mouth. It is not a sleeping pill.  However, over a relatively short period of time it can prove very effective. Furthermore, you will feel much more energetic during the day. Ginseng and Longan Combination is a great Qi and Shen tonic formula that has been used for centuries to increase vital energy and calm anxiety.  It may be used strengthen Qi and Blood which have become deficient due to major illness, chronic or acute bleeding and/or mental or physical stress.  It too can eliminate insomnia, but in this case the type of insomnia where one has difficulty staying asleep Reishi Mushroom Capsules are an excellent addition to this program. Reishi, when taken at night, is very calming and promotes deep sleep. Other Things to Think About People’s sleep requirements vary widely. People who exercise heavily, require more sleep in order to repair tissue. When one awakens, they should feel refreshed and eager to begin the new day. They should feel energy immediately upon awakening. If you awaken tired every morning, you are Jing deficient. It is best not to eat too soon before sleep. It is obviously not a good idea to consume caffeine or other stimulating nutrients within several hours of sleeping. Good exercise always helps people to sleep better. “An honest person sleeps well. A person at peace with themselves sleeps best.” Emotions should be stilled so that worry, anger, fear and the other emotions do not prevent sound sleep. The Zen master can fall asleep at will, within moments of making the decision to sleep. They will, however, be able to awaken instantly if they need to. You should be able to do the same Shen tonics have spectacular benefits for people with insomnia. Over a period of time, you will not require Shen stabilizing formulas or any particular sleep-inducing herb or formulation. But you will need to maintain the three treasures, so a tonic program will be of great value at all times. If You Sleep Too Much If your sleeping problem is not insomnia, but oversleeping, you are probably Jing and Qi deficient. See the sections on Adaptability, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, and Exhaustion. And of course, maybe you’re just lazy, in which case you should refer to the section on Will Power.

Feel Younger Best Before November 2024 - Feel Younger - Magnesium Glycinate 425mg 60caps
£16.00 £19.00
What is Magnesium?Magnesium is an important mineral that’s crucially important for your body to function properly.It’s the fourth most abundant mineral found in your body[2] and it’s essential to all living cells and vital for myriad physiological functions[3].The reason why the benefits are so numerous and varied is because of the many ways that optimal levels of magnesium are necessary to function optimally.For instance, magnesium is required for the production of ATP (the main source of energy in our cells)[4], and the production of DNA, RNA, and proteins[5].Magnesium plays an important role in cell-to-cell communication[6].Over 300 enzymes (biological catalysts that make chemical processes happen in our body) require the presence of magnesium to function properly[7].Because of its positive charge, magnesium stabilizes the cellular membranes[8].How common is magnesium deficiency?While a deficiency severe enough to warrant medical attention is relatively rare, some health professionals believe that suboptimal levels of magnesium are relatively common, with estimates as high as 75% of people in the US not having a sufficient intake,[16] let alone an optimal intake, which has yet to be precisely defined.As with any essential nutrient, here at Feel Younger we believe that it’s always ideal to test your magnesium levels to be sure if it would be beneficial to take.The best tests for Magnesium are generally considered to be: RBC (red blood cell) or intracellular magnesium, to get a true understanding of overall deficiency.The more common tests are plasma or serum magnesium, which are much cheaper and easily available, but which are less of a true reflection of your body’s stores of magnesium, as your body will tend to keep your plasma and serum levels in a tight range in all but severe cases of deficiency.RBC (red blood cell) or intracellular magnesium tests, on the other hand, are considered to give a more accurate indication of true, overall levels of magnesium stores in the cells, which is what actually matters when assessing if levels are optimum.If you’re unable to access these tests however, then, given that Magnesium is a natural substance that is very safe for the vast majority of the population (see below for exceptions), it seems reasonable to try it, if you would like to support your body to Feeling Younger and Healthier, especially if you identify with some of the early signs of deficiency listed above.What causes Magnesium Deficiency?The most commonly understood causes of Magnesium Deficiency include[17]: a poor diet type 2 diabetes digestive problems such as Crohn’s disease long-term vomiting or diarrhoea kidney problems long-term use of diuretics some medicines (for example, fluid tablets and medicines for ulcers or reflux) can cause low magnesium levels if taken for long periods alcoholism In addition, some healthcare professionals point to the fact that, even in the case of a relatively good diet, it’s an established fact that the soil in which our food grows is 75%-90% lower in essential minerals like magnesium than it was 100 years ago.[18]So whether you’re eating plants, which can only get the minerals from the soil, or whether you’re eating animals that ate those plants, the results is the same: the food we’re eating is more mineral depleted, and therefore magnesium depleted, than it was up until relatively recently in our evolution.Finally, there is strong evidence that stress itself depletes magnesium[19]. This creates a vicious cycle where stress depletes magnesium, and then lowered magnesium reduces stress. Presumably, in order to break this cycle, you would need to replenish magnesium as well as reduce stress.What’s the Best Form of Magnesium to Take?There are many different forms of magnesium available, including citrate, sulfate, oxide, chloride and malate.However, the form that’s considered the best, the most easily absorbed by the body, is Magnesium Glycinate.Forms of magnesium that are less well absorbed and cheaper, like for instance magnesium oxide, have a laxative effect. As a general rule, the less well absorbed the form of magnesium is, the more of a laxative effect it’ll have.When consuming mineral supplements, the best form is generally considered to be when it’s chelated (chemically bonded) to an amino acid. Why is this? Because minerals in their raw form are inorganic, meaning that the body does not recognise them as food, often doesn’t absorb them well, and then also struggles to excrete them.Conversely, when a mineral is bonded to an amino acid, or chelated, this makes the mineral and Organic Mineral i.e. it’s the same form found in food, and so your body recognises the magnesium as food, and absorbs it a lot better.Magnesium Glycinate then, the type sold by Feel Younger, is considered the best form of magnesium because it’s bonded to Glycine, an abundant amino acid in the body which has a whole host of it’s own benefits[20], including: Glycine is one of the building blocks of the body’s most powerful natural antioxidant, glutathione Necessary to make collagen, for healthy skin Can improve sleep quality Can help keep blood sugar balanced May protect the liver and the heart Can protect against muscle loss. Although Glycine is not considered as an essential amino acid, because the body is capable of making its own, if necessary, many healthcare professionals consider it a good idea to increase glycine intake, either through natural foods like bone broth, or via supplementation.Feel Younger is proud to present our Magnesium Glycinate, containing 425mg of Elemental Magnesium per serving, which is close to the recommended daily amount for most people, enough to make up for the shortfall in almost any diet.How do you take Feel Younger ® Magnesium Glycinate?Ideally take with water directly before eating a meal, for maximum absorption, but can be taken any time, or as directed by a healthcare professional.Are there any cautions?Though magnesium supplements are generally considered safe, you should check with a healthcare professional before taking them, especially if you have a medical condition.The mineral supplement may be unsafe for people who take certain diuretics, heart medications, or antibiotics[21].Most people who take magnesium supplements don’t experience side effects, but magnesium can cause gut-related issues such as diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting, especially when used in large doses[22].It’s important to note that people with kidney issues are at a higher risk of experiencing adverse effects related to magnesium supplements[23].Always consult a qualified healthcare professional before making any changes to your diet or lifestyle.

£10.00 £19.00
Would you like: Help with Weight Loss Cholesterol Support Improved Heart Health Enhanced Mood If so, you may want to give CLA a try.What is CLA and where does it come from?CLA is short for Conjugated Linoleic Acid(s), which is, in essence, an omega-6 fatty acid, but a healthy one.CLA is a naturally occurring fatty acid that is produced by a bio-hydrogenation process in the rumen, and thus is present in dairy products and ruminant meat (9cis, 11 trans).28 different forms of CLA exist [1].The difference between these structures is that their double bonds are organized in different ways. It’s vital to keep in mind that something as small as this can make a massive difference to our cells.Traditional UseCLA supplements are most commonly sold because of their reputation for aiding weight loss [2].CLA is also sometimes used as a dietary supplement for bodybuilding.Story of DiscoveryIn 1987, researchers at the University of Wisconsin in Madison first discovered CLA.Dr. Pariza first noted an extract in beef, back in 1978, that appeared to be an anticarcinogenic, but it wasn’t until 1987 that he identified this extract to be CLA.Since the discovery, a surge of scientific studies and research have been conducted on how CLA affects body mass and other potential benefits it may have on human health.In the past, people received healthy doses of CLA through their diet, by consuming beef and dietary fats.However, the way cattle are raised has changed… and it is this change, as well as the change in people's diets today, that has lowered the amount of CLA people are able to ingest.The majority of cattle no longer graze in pastures on natural grass and other foods. Instead, they are fed meat products and processed grains.This has resulted in a decrease in cattle's internal production of CLA, meaning less conjugated linoleic acid is consumed from eating meat and dairy products.Furthermore, most people that worry about cholesterol and fat intake adjust their diets to eat less red meat and dairy products, which in turn reduces the amount of CLA in their diet.Fortunately, scientists have developed a process to convert the linoleic acid of pure safflower oil into conjugated linoleic acid.How does it work?CLA works in the following ways: Boosts metabolism, thus aiding obesity & weight management by reducing body weight, reducing BMI, total fat mass, fat percentage and fat burned while sleeping [3]. CLA can improve blood pressure by increasing adiponectin and endothelial nitric oxide synthase activity [4]. Helps to reduce bad cholesterol (HDL-cholesterol), without impacting and raises good cholesterol levels (LDL-cholesterol). Can help improve heart health by increasing the amount of C-reactive protein (CRP) in the blood, which is a marker for inflammation. People mainly use CLA to: Aid Weight Loss A study done on overweight Chinese subjects found that CLA supplementation (twice daily dissolved in milk) helped with weight loss over a 12-week period [5].The supplementation was found to reduce body weight, reduce BMI, reduce total fat mass, and reduce fat percentage.The treatment also reduced waist to hip ratio and reduced subcutaneous fat mass.Studies have shown that CLAs decrease lipid storage by increasing the rate of fat breakdown in fat tissue [6].The fatty acids also increase fatty acid oxidation and reduce glucose uptake in cultured fat cells.Improve Heart Health & CholesterolIn a study of 80 obese and hypertensive people, CLA combined with ramipril reduced blood pressure more than ramipril alone [7].Another study found that high intakes of both cis-9, trans-11 and trans-10, cis-12 CLA raised the level of HDL cholesterol in healthy women.HDL cholesterol promotes low cholesterol levels and healthy heart function [8].High levels of glucose result in major heart damage and heart problems. A study in rat cells found that cells pre-treated with CLA and then exposed to high glucose levels had reduced heart damage and a decreased risk of heart problems, than cells not pre-treated in the same conditions [9].Our CLA from Safflower oil is all natural (unlike most that are chemically altered), sugar free, hormone free, lactose free and doesn’t contain any nasty binders.Here at Feel Younger, we believe in providing strong doses at reasonable prices. Our CLA from Safflower oil softgels provide a 1000mg dose per softgel, and will cost you no more than $19, with discounts available on subscriptions for multiple bottles.How do you take it?Take one softgel with food, twice a day.Taking with food will help the body better utilize the CLA.Any cautions?Possible side effects of taking CLA can be excessive flatulence, bloating, nausea and diarrhoea.CLA can increase insulin resistance.ALWAYS consult a healthcare professional before taking any new supplements.

Natural Stacks Best Before November 2024 - Curcumin with Organic Coconut Oil - 60 ct. (Natural Stacks)
£26.95 £34.95
Inflammation - the silent killer Inflammation is a natural response to stress, injury, or illness as part of the body’s normal recovery process.  However problems arise if you’re constantly in an inflammatory state.  Inflammation is the #1 performance robber.  It can negatively affect your joints, brain function, and gut health on a daily basis. Unfortunately, in today’s world it’s impossible to completely protect yourself from inflammation.  Things like exposure to wireless internet signals, too much artificial light, not getting enough sleep, and consuming too much sugar or processed foods are all causes of inflammation. And the negative side effects of inflammation are cumulative.  It may go un-noticed until you experience things like minor joint pain or occasional brain fog, but then it can develop into serious health problems.  In fact, chronic inflammation is the common link among the leading causes of death in developed nations.  It’s the root factor for 7 of the top 10 causes of death, including heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and Alzheimer’s. (1) Reducing inflammation is essential for performing at your highest level every day and living a long, healthy life.   Curcumin - fight inflammation and live optimal The root of the turmeric plant has been used has been used for centuries in Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine to treat various inflammatory conditions.  The natural phenol of turmeric responsible for its powerful anti-inflammatory properties is called Curcumin. Curcumin is capable of interacting with a number of different molecular targets involved in inflammation.  It modulates the inflammatory response by down-regulating the activity of enzymes such as lipoxygenase, inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) - the target of the pharmaceutical drug Celebrex®.  It also inhibits the production of inflammatory cytokines including tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-a), interleukin (IL) -1, -2, -6, -8, and -12, monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP), and migration inhibitory protein.  This multi-pronged attack on inflammation is the key to its effectiveness.  Numerous studies over recent decades have substantiated the exciting mental and physical performance boosting benefits of curcumin.  It’s has been shown to: Reduce inflammation and lower disease risk (2,3) Increase BDNF (Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor) (4,5) Increase insulin sensitivity (6) Reduce symptoms of depression and increase mood (5,7) Speed recovery (8) Protect against neural degradation (9) Increase testosterone and boost muscle growth (10,11) However, curcumin powder has very low bioavailability…. The downside for curcumin - and the reason it hasn’t (yet) become a health superstar - is that it has very low oral bioavailability, resulting from poor solubility in the aqueous phase of the digestive fluids, limited intestinal uptake, rapid metabolism, and urinary excretion. (12) Our goal with Natural Stacks Curcumin was to change that. The science is too convincing and the benefits are too life-changing to simply throw curcumin away due to “low bioavailability”. Creating a superior curcumin supplement Unlike regular curcumin powder, we start with a standardized 95% curcumin extract - purified and concentrated from raw turmeric root.  We use the patented NovaSOL solubilisation technology to suspend the curcumin extract in microscopic spheres called micelles which transform the dense and opaque extract into a body-ready liquid form.  The liquid micelles are completely stable at gastric pH and are so microscopically small that the curcumin is readily absorbed and passed directly into the bloodstream. A human clinical trial showed that NovaSOL Curcumin is 185X MORE BIOAVAILABLE than regular curcumin powder and 10X MORE BIOAVAILABLE than a fully standardized (95%) curcumin extract.  It was also shown to be long lasting, remaining in blood plasma for up to 24 hours. (13) To take it a step further, we combined the liquid curcumin micelles with organic coconut oil for superior bioavailability. Anti-Inflammatory SUGGESTED USE: Take 1 serving per day, or as directed by a healthcare practitioner. U.S.A manufactured in a cGMP facility.  Natural Stacks proudly uses only the highest quality ingredients. NovaSOL® Curcumin Each serving contains 1,000 mg of NovaSOL curcumin, shown to be 10x more bioavailable than a fully standardized (95%) curcumin extract.  The unique micelle structure is completely stable at gastric pH allowing for rapid absorption, making it very effective at much lower doses. Organic Coconut Oil Certified organic coconut oil is the perfect addition to curcumin, allowing for maximum absorption. NovaSOL® is a registered trademark of Aquanova AG.

According to scientists conducting independent research, “the liquid micellar formulation of curcumin significantly improved its oral bioavailability” and “Consumers will benefit dramatically from consuming relatively low doses of NovaSOL Curcumin (about 80 to 90 mg per day) as that is the bio-equivalent dose of 12 to 15 grams of curcumin powder.” [1] Anti-Inflammatory / Pain Relief / Tissue Healing High doses of curcumin improved tendon healing, lowered inflammation markers, and led to a faster and more complete recovery [2] “Curcumin is capable of promoting peripheral nerve regeneration in normal conditions.” and “In conclusion, curcumin is capable of promoting nerve regeneration after sciatic nerve crush injury in diabetes mellitus, highlighting its therapeutic values as a neuroprotective agent for peripheral nerve injury repair in diabetes mellitus.” [3] Lowers risk of and treats commons diseases of inflammation “This agent has been shown to regulate numerous transcription factors, cytokines, protein kinases, adhesion molecules, redox status and enzymes that have been linked to inflammation.
