Would you like to… Improve the Health of Your Urinary Tract Combat UTI’s (Urinary Tract Infections) Support the Health of Your Bladder and Kidneys If so, you’ll want to give our Urinary Bladder Support Formula with 1000mg D Mannose + Cranberry a try.The ingredients in this formula can also potentially give you a whole range of other benefits, such as: Improved Heart Health Antioxidant Support Reduced Inflammation Improved Digestive Health Liver Protection Aiding Healthy Weight Loss Lower Blood Pressure Blood Sugar Regulation Lower Cholesterol Levels A Boosted Immune System Why is it Important to Support Your Urinary Tract and Bladder?The urinary tract is extremely important to the body and it’s primarily responsible for filtering out waste products and flushing them out of the body.Your kidneys start this process by filtering your blood to remove excess fluids, waste products and anything toxic your body wants to be rid of. The kidneys produce urine to flush these waste products out of the body.Urine then passes down a tube (ureters) from the kidneys to the bladder. Once your bladder gets full, your brain sends a signal to let you know that it’s time to pee.Although the process is unconscious up until this part, we can consciously control when to urinate or not. When we’re ready, we relax the sphincter at the top of the urethra (the tube that is connected to the bottom of the bladder) and the urine will start to flow out of our bodies.When your urinary tract becomes infected you may experience some of the symptoms and problems listed below: Pain or burning when urinating (dysuria) Frequent urge to urinate (can occur at night) Sudden urge to pee (more than usual) Cloudy dark or strong smelling urine Blood in your urine Lower stomach or back pain (under the ribs) Low temperature If the infection manages to reach the kidneys, the following symptoms may occur: Discomfort and pain in your sides, lower back and near/around genitals High temperature, chills or shivering Weakness or fatigue Loss of appetite Diarrhea Nausea or vomiting If you experience any of the symptoms listed above, it’s best to speak to your physician to determine the best cause of action. Our product should only be used in conjunction with medical treatment, or where a medical professional states they are unable to help, as is sometimes the case in cases of chronic cystitis.What causes UTIs to develop?Urinary tract infections most commonly occur when E. coli (bacteria found in the digestive tract) enter the urethra opening. The reason why women experience UTIs more commonly than men is because their urethra is shorter, and also closer to the anus where E. coli can be found.It’s especially important to treat UTIs quickly and effectively to stop bacteria ascending up your urinary tract. If the bacteria reaches your bladder, cystitis can occur (inflammation of the bladder).If the bacteria continues to ascend the urinary tract, it can reach the kidneys and cause further infection (pyelonephritis) which if left untreated, can cause long lasting damage to the kidneys and also carries a risk of contracting sepsis (blood poisoning) which can be fatal.Can you test for UTIs?If you think you have a UTI, it’s best to speak to your physician who can arrange for a urine test to be carried out.UTIs can be discovered by taking a urine test, where your urine sample will be analyzed under a microscope to check for signs of infection (white blood cells and bacteria).Blood tests can also be used, as well as a CT scan, ultrasound, cystography and other imaging tests to determine if there is any infection further up the urinary tract in the bladder or kidneys.The Top 10 Ways to support the health of your urinary tract:There are many lifestyle changes you can make to support the health of your urinary tract, including your bladder and kidneys to decrease the chances of developing an infection: Eat a nutrient dense, varied organic diet. While what you eat and drink aren’t necessarily considered to be risk factors [1] in the development of UTIs, certain foods, such as yogurt, contain healthy bacteria that help to prevent and fight infection.   Boost your immune system. A compromised immune system is associated with higher chances of contracting a UTI. There are many ways to boost your immune system such as the point above (good diet), regular exercise (150 mins a week at least), stopping smoking, maintaining a healthy weight, drinking alcohol in moderation, getting enough sleep and reducing stress.If sleep is something you struggle with, you can try supplementing with our Sleep Aid Ultra, 5 HTP or Saffron products.If stress is something you struggle with, there are many things you can do to help such as meditation and breathing exercises. You can also try supplementing with our Serenity Anti-Stress Support, 5 HTP, Saffron or Ashwagandha products. Don’t hold your pee! Holding urine in for too long can increase the chance of developing a UTI [2]. It can also overstretch the bladder muscles, causing them to slacken which can lead to inability to empty your bladder fully (urinary retention or incontinence). Clean your genitals before and after sex. Making sure you and your partner are clean before you go at it will lessen the chance of any unwanted bacteria entering your urethra. Maintaining good rectal hygiene (especially in women) may help lower the chance of developing a UTI.Using condoms will decrease this chance even further. Urinate immediately after sex, and drink plenty of water. Peeing straight after sex may help flush any unwanted bacteria out of the urinary tract.12-15 cups of water daily should ensure proper flow to help flush bacteria out of the urinary tract. Do Kegel exercises. Kegel exercises target the pelvic floor. They are particularly important to strengthen muscles around the bladder to keep any unwanted spills at bay.   The strengthening of these muscles can also help to avoid unwanted infections getting through to the bladder. Wipe front to back. Wiping from back to front will increase the chances of bacteria from your anus entering your urethra and causing a UTI. Stop using a diaphragm. Diaphragms can harbor bacteria such as E. coli, as well as promoting their growth [3]. This is especially worse for women who are already prone to UTIs. Consider changing to a different form of contraception.  Stop using scented soaps. Using scented soaps can irritate vaginal tissues and can alter the vaginal microbiome, making you more susceptible to UTIs. This also stands true for bubble baths, cleansing sprays and so forth. Support your urinary tract with vital minerals and nutrients to decrease the risk of developing UTIs, while supporting your bladder: D-mannose. A type of sugar that is found in fruits and vegetables such as oranges, broccoli, apples, green beans, peaches - D-mannose can help to treat and prevent UTIs by preventing infectious bacteria, such as E. coli, from being able to clasp onto cells and cause infection in the urinary tract.There have been many studies on the efficacy of D-mannose. One such study on women with active UTIs found that symptoms for most women improved [4].Another study saw the comparison of D-mannose and antibiotics in treating and preventing UTIs. It found that the mean recurrence time was 52.7 days with antibiotic treatments, compared to 200 days with oral D-mannose [5].Cranberry juice powder. Cranberries are a great source of D-mannose, and have been used for hundreds of years as an effective treatment for UTIs.Hibiscus flower extract. Scientifically known as hibiscus sabdariffa linn, or more commonly known as roselle - hibiscus flower has been used traditionally as an anti-inflammatory agent. Renal (of the kidneys) inflammation can be a key event in UTIs.A study on the effect of a roselle drink preventing UTIs and renal inflammation in long-term care facilities saw roselle drinks to be effective [6].Dandelion herb extract. Scientifically known as taraxacum officinale folium - Dandelion may have antimicrobial properties that can help your immune system fight off infection [7].It also has a diuretic (increased passing of urine) effect on the human body helping you to flush out unwanted bacteria [8].Introducing Feel Younger® Urinary Bladder Support Formula with 1000mg D Mannose + CranberryWe understand that it’s not always easy, nor practical to implement a variety of lifestyle changes - especially all at once. We’d advise that you make as many of the changes listed further up this page as possible, but to do so 1 or 2 at a time, make sure they stick and then move onto more.In the meantime, you can support your body with the essential nutrients and minerals it needs that can help support and prevent your urinary tract from infections.That’s why we’ve included the above ingredients in our Urinary Bladder Support Formula.By combining these ingredients into an easy to swallow capsule, we’ve taken the stress out of buying each of these ingredients separately, researching and experimenting how much of each you should take and then incorporating them into your diet/supplement regime.Here at Feel younger®, we believe in providing strong doses at reasonable prices.  Our Urinary Bladder Support Formula with 1000mg D Mannose + Cranberry capsules are antibiotic free, gluten free, vegan and vegetarian friendly, corn free, hormone free, lactose free and contain no nasty fillers or binders.How Do You Take Feel Younger® Urinary Bladder Support Formula with 1000mg D Mannose + Cranberry?Take two capsules once a day with a glass of water, preferably 20-30 minutes before a meal.Any Cautions?Although rare, some people may experience loose stools or diarrhea.Because of the lack of studies on hibiscus flower and pregnancy, pregnant or breastfeeding women should avoid this product.ALWAYS consult a healthcare professional before taking any new supplements, especially if you have high blood pressure or diabetes in this case (due to hibiscus content and dandelion).If you are taking antibiotics, anticoagulants, blood sugar drugs, any prescription medications or have diabetes, consult your physician before taking this product.

Natural Stacks Vitamin D3 5,000 IU with Organic Coconut Oil - 30 ct.(Natural Stacks)
£9.00
Found in cells throughout the brain and body, Vitamin D plays an integral role in regulating the neuromuscular and immune systems [1,2], as well as mood and sleep [3]. It’s also a critical hormone precursor that supports new cell growth [4] and bone formation [5,6]. Vitamin D is essential to maintaining health and optimizing performance. Unfortunately it’s only found in a few foods and often in very small amounts. Because of it’s vital importance and lack of dietary sources, humans evolved to be able to make Vitamin D on their own. Ultraviolet (UV-B) radiation from sunlight penetrates uncovered skin and naturally gets converted into Vitamin D. Season, time / length of day, cloud cover, smog, sunscreen, and darkness of skin all affect the amount of UV exposure and rate of Vitamin D synthesis [7].  It’s been shown that cloud cover and pollution can reduce UV energy by up to 60%, and UV-B radiation doesn’t penetrate glass so exposure to sunlight through a window does not produce Vitamin D [8]. It’s estimated that 1 billion worldwide suffer from Vitamin D deficiency or insufficiency [9]. Symptoms of inadequate levels of Vitamin D include bone pain and muscle weakness, but the symptoms can be subtle and go undetected in the initial stages. Deficiency has been associated with increased risk of autoimmune, cardiovascular, and infectious diseases [10]. Natural Stacks™ Vitamin D3 provides the highly bioavailable form of natural Vitamin D (Cholecalciferol). To ensure optimal absorption of this fat-soluble vitamin we suspended it in the healthiest fat on the planet - organic cold pressed coconut oil. The natural fatty acids in coconut oil aid the transport of Vitamin D into the bloodstream for fast and effective results.   Vitamin d, neurocognitive functioning and immunocompetence.

Vitamin D3 is absolutely essential for optimal performance and health. Organic Coconut Oil Certified organic coconut oil is the perfect addition to Vitamin D3. Fat-soluble vitamin D is suspended within the coconut oil allowing for maximum absorption.   When studying the relationship between vitamin D levels and cognition, researchers found that “the high vitamin D group had significantly more correct responses than the low vitamin D group”. [1] A meta-analysis of 18 independent randomized controlled trials (total 57,311 participants) found that “Intake of ordinary doses of vitamin D supplements seems to be associated with decreases in total mortality rates”. [2] An extensive 2007 study on 2,160 healthy women concluded that “higher vitamin D concentrations are associated with longer LTL, which underscores the potentially beneficial effects of this hormone of aging and age-related diseases”. [3]  A rodent study investigating the neuroprotective effects of vitamin D discovered it’s ability to mitigate inflammation, making it “a useful therapeutic option to alleviate the effects of aging on cognitive function”. [4] Dr. Rhonda Patrick recently discovered that “Vitamin D hormone regulates serotonin synthesis”. Serotonin is the neurotransmitter responsible for mood regulation. [5]   A study examining the cognitive performance, mood, and physical performance of 80 older adults found that “vitamin D deficiency was associated with low mood and with impairment on two of four measures of cognitive performance”.

WAM Essentials (Dr Wong) Cran-Diazyme™ (Cranberry Extract) 90 Caps (WAM Essentials)
£53.95
Kidneys are something few think about until the two small organs force themselves into our consciousness by having something afflict them.  Maintaining kidney health should be a mainstay of our natural health practices as detoxing the liver or keeping the bowels flowing and colonized with good bacteria.  But unfortunately few give the kidneys little thought.     There are kidney “dextoing” products on the market but those are either misnamed kidney support products or outright rip offs as the kidneys don’t store anything, even toxins.  The liver and the body fat are the organs of toxin storage.     The kidneys need to be free flowing, free or low on scar tissue build up and free or low on kidney stone build up.    The kidneys want to be kept at just the right level of hydration.  Too little water and the filtering fingers of the insides of the kidneys, the Glomeruli, dry up and scar over with fibrosis.   Too much water and the kidneys distend which also cause scaring.    Too high a protein intake will cause the excess protein not used by the body to be eliminated through the kidneys and that causes two things; an increased ammonia load that becomes caustic and scar tissue formation.  Also the excess protein combines with calcium and sugar to form kidney stones.    Let’s touch on the ammonia issue.   Urine is ammonia based; anyone who’s been around livestock has smelled the stench of ammonia in cow and horse urine.  It’s no different for humans.   Problem is that ammonia is 9.7 pH, highly alkaline.  Now before you tell me that its good for the body to be alkaline let’s point out the physiological fact that while most of the body want’s to be alkaline at 7+ph because it’s supposed to be seawater inside of us from our tears to our blood to our internal body fluid, the stomach and the kidneys are supposed to be acidic.   They are the only two organs in the body that were designed to be acidic and suffer from not being so.     This is where we get to the first of the positive effects of the Crandiazyme.    Of all the cranberry based supplements Crandiazyme has the strongest cranberry content as the 36 to 1 concentration of cranberries far and away out strips the strength found in weaker cranberry extracts or just straight cranberry powder.   Also, the best functioning cranberry product we’ve found so far contained only 5 mg of actual cranberry extract.    While the Crandiazyme formula is a trade secret it does contain several hundred milligrams of the 36 to 1 cranberry extract per capsule.    Cranberry prevents bacteria from attaching to the renal system in several ways: ·      It changes the fimbriae, the tiny arms bad bacteria use to cling onto a surface, so that they don’t work. (1,2). ·      Further, other chemical properties of cranberries keep the bacteria that don’t have fimbriae from attaching on to surfaces of the urinary tract.   (3).   Next we get to the problems of kidney stones, inflammation and scar tissue.   Natural medicine has been working to dissolve renal calculi with magnesium for decades and that works to a point.  (4).   Magnesium bonds, (chelates), onto the calcium of the stone and flushes the calcium out a bit at a time reducing the size stones over time.    The speed of the reduction is governed by the amount of magnesium taken and the amount of fluid passing through the kidney.    While magnesium is not part of Crandiazyme due to restrictions in the amount of magnesium needed to have the chelating effect and the size of the Crandiazyme capsule, use of a separate strong magnesium supplement will work for this effect.   Systemic enzymes have also been used to both reduce kidney inflammation with out the kidney damage that the anti inflammatory NSAID drugs do cause.   The protein lysing enzymes will also lyse away at the fibrosis / scar tissue that grows impeding the function of the glomeruli in filtering.   Serrapeptase, the superior fibrosis lysing enzyme, is part of the Crandiazyme formula.   (5,6).   So between the magnesium and the proteolytic enzymes what’s left to do?    Kidney deposits and formations have what are called sugar notes and these crystalized sugar formations can also be dealt with using a specific sugar lysing enzyme.  (7).   The study shows that the proteolytic (protein cleaving enzymes), worked better at lysing away those deposits to quote the study:    ‘The combination of dextranase plus protease attenuated all components of glomerular injury as judged by clinical and pathologic parameters”.  (7).   While the dextranase used in the study is super expensive, we put an affordable variant of that enzyme in the Crandiazyme.    Crandiazyme was designed to be used alone as a bladder and kidney health support supplement for its very strong cranberry content, and designed to be used in conjunction with our Zymessence and Magscorbate in addressing more serious renal issues.   Used either way taking the Crandiazyme is a significant step in improving ones kidney health.      References: 1)   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cranberry_juice 2)   http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/07/080721152005.htm 3)   http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20646356 4)   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kidney_stone 5)   http://www.enzymescience.com/Nephrology%20and%20Urology/Glomerulonephritis.htm 6)   http://www.enzymescience.com/Nephrology%20and%20Urology/Renal%20Fibrosis.htm 7)   http://www.enzymescience.com/Nephrology%20and%20Urology/Glomerular%20Immune%20Deposits.htm
Feel Younger Feel Younger - Krill Oil Omega 3 500mg 30caps
£35.00
Do you suffer from any of the following issues? High cholesterol High blood pressure Joint pain Rheumatoid arthritis Skin disorders (e.g. psoriasis, dermatitis) Obesity AMD (age-related macular degeneration) Heart disease Depression Liver disease Osteoporosis Chronic inflammation ADHD Struggles to concentrate Asthma If so, then Krill Oil Omega-3 could be one of the essential supplements to improve your overall health.How can Krill Oil Omega-3 help you with this?The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends every person consume around two portions of fish each week, as the omega-3s found in fish and other sea creatures are a key ingredient in living a healthy, balanced lifestyle. If you’re vegetarian, vegan, or simply don’t eat seafood, then you should receive your weekly intake of omega-3 through a natural supplement.The omega-3 nutrients found in marine life are an important source of energy and have been scientifically proven to support your immune system. These nutrients are present in every cell wall in the body, and therefore play an important role in building and maintaining your natural defense systems.One of the key health benefits of Krill Oil Omega-3 is that it reduces inflammation. Inflammation is our natural response to fighting infections and healing injuries. However, chronic inflammation is associated with numerous health disorders, including asthma, obesity, depression, and heart disease. By reducing inflammation, we can alleviate symptoms of these diseases.    Krill Oil Omega-3 has also been known to improve risk factors surrounding heart disease. Several decades ago, researchers noticed that fish-eating communities had unusually low rates of heart diseases and strokes. Since then, omega-3 fatty acids have been linked to numerous benefits for heart health, such as reducing triglycerides, lowering blood pressure, raising "good" HDL cholesterol levels, and clearing plaque from the walls of your arteries.What are other benefits of Krill Oil Omega-3?Krill Oil Omega-3 can be considered one of the fundamental supplements, in that it can be used to manage a wide range of health conditions. Some additional proven health benefits of krill oil include: Improve eyesight Improve brain health Skin health Reduce symptoms of ADHD Stronger immune system Emotional and mental wellbeing Lower levels of liver fat Alleviate menstrual pain What is Krill Oil Omega-3?Omega-3 fish oils are an effective health supplement containing the natural fats extracted from fish tissue. It is typically taken from oily fish such as tuna, anchovies, herring and mackerel. However, it’s also sometimes produced from the livers of other fish — for example, cod liver oil.Over the past years, Krill Oil has rapidly gained popularity as an alternative to fish oil. It is made from krill, a small crustacean consumed by whales, penguins and other sea animals. Similar to fish oil, Krill Oil Omega-3 is a strong source of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and astaxanthin, natural omega-3 fats only found in marine life.Many consider Krill Oil superior to Fish Oil because it contains astaxanthin. In addition to being a powerful antioxidant, astaxanthin is also a natural preservative. This prevents the omega-3 fish oil from turning rancid, which is a common problem with other fish oils.How is our Krill Oil Omega-3 supplement better than others you may have tried?Omega-3 is a popular health supplement on the market, but certain manufacturers do not adhere to the same high standards of quality as Feel Younger. There are several reasons why our Krill Oil Omega-3 supplements are superior to similar products.To begin with, our supplement has a higher concentration of the active ingredients EPA and DHA. These two key nutrients present in fish and marine life oils play an essential role in improving your immune system and counteracting the effects of ageing. Although many Omega-3 supplements advertise 1000mg of fatty oils on the front of their containers, if you look at the list of ingredients on the back, you’ll notice they often contain as little as 320mg of EPA and DHA. On the other hand, Feel Younger’s Krill Oil Omega-3 supplements have a 500mg portion of EPA and DHA, promising you the healthy, recommended intake of these two nutrients.Our Krill Oil Omega-3 supplements also contain another key nutrient: astaxanthin. Studies have shown that astaxanthin activates the white blood cells in your body, improving your immune system. It has also been known to help protect your skin from UV damage.Feel Younger’s Krill Oil Omega-3 supplements also come in softgel capsules. As a result, they're easily absorbed into the body and don’t have the unpleasant fishy taste of similar supplements. As is the case with all our dietary supplements, the Feel Younger krill oil capsules are gluten-free and made from all natural ingredients.How do you take Krill Oil Omega-3?As a dietary supplement, it’s recommended you take one (1) softgel capsule twice a day. For the best results, take your dose 20-30 minutes before a meal with an 8oz. glass of water or as directed by your healthcare professional.Are there any cautions?Though omega-3 supplements are generally considered safe, you should check with a healthcare professional before taking them. If you are allergic to fish or shellfish, seek advice from your healthcare professional first.Fish oil is likely safe for most people in doses of 5 grams or less dailyFish oil might slow blood clotting. Taking fish oil along with medications that also slow blood clotting might increase the risk of bruising and bleeding.Pregnant or nursing mothers, children under 18, and individuals with a known medical condition should also consult a physician before using this or any dietary supplement.

It is responsible for 2 extremely important processes in our body. The first process is digestion.No matter how healthy (or not) your diet may be, optimal gut health is important for digestion so that you can absorb nutrients from food efficiently, utilize the building blocks that you need to maintain your body, and efficiently convert the food you eat into energy.Digestive enzymes are proteins that your body makes (mainly in your pancreas, but also in your small intestine, stomach and mouth) to break down food so your body can absorb the nutrients.For example, the digestive enzyme lipase is made to break down fats into glycerol and smaller fatty acids. The digestive enzyme lactase is made to help break down the natural sugar contained within milk which is called lactose.The second extremely important process that your digestive tract is significantly responsible for is your immune system. In fact, around 70% of your immune system is in your gut, which means good gut health is essential for optimal immune function to fight off bacteria, viruses and other pathogens that are dangerous to our bodies and can make us unwell.A healthy gut should contain many billions of “good” bacteria which multiply rapidly and create an acidic environment in the intestines so that the “bad” bacteria isn’t able to proliferate. The balance of these bacteria is often referred to as the gut microbiome (referring to microbes that are present in your digestive system).When your gut is not in good health, it will struggle to get rid of toxins (like endotoxin, believed to be a key factor in premature aging [1]) and substances that are left over from metabolic processes (metabolic waste) that must be excreted because they cannot be used by our bodies.What Impacts the Health of Your Gut & Digestion?If there is a problem with your digestive tract then digestive symptoms such as diarrhea, constipation, bloating, excess gas, abdominal pain, acid reflux and more can develop. But poor gut health can cause inflammation throughout the body, leading to a myriad of different health issues.In fact, ancient traditional modalities of health and healing, like Ayurvedic Medicine, actually believed that ‘all’ ill health had its origins in the gut.The gut is also known as an “extension of the brain” because its walls are lined with a system of neurons that help to govern the function of the gastrointestinal tract, which is known as the intrinsic or enteric nervous system. Again, this was known for thousands of years by Ancient Eastern systems like Taoism, the origin of Acupuncture and Chi Kung, who often referred to the gut as the ‘second brain’.Poor gut health has also been linked to the development of autoimmune disorders.There are many things that can damage the health of your gut and result in worsened digestion, such as: Genetic Factors (see Genetic Insights for more info on how your genetics may increase the likelihood of having gut issues.) Poor diet, including excess sugar and processed foods Nutritional Deficiencies Eating in a stressed state, usually leading to eating too quickly and not chewing your food enough Dehydration GastroIntestinal Dysbiosis, especially SIBO where too many bacteria grow in the small intestine (they are mainly meant to be in the large intestine, even ‘good’ bacteria can cause issues if too many are in the small intestine.) Food intolerances (although these maybe a symptom of gut issues, rather than cause)   Frequent Antibiotics Alcohol (along with any other downsides, alcohol kills all bacteria, good and bad, on contact, similar to an antibiotic, which is why it’s used as a disinfectant) Lack of exercise Smoking Lack of or Poor Quality Sleep Chronic Stress Is There a Test for Digestion?There are a variety of tests that can be taken to check your digestive health. Some of these include:Fecal Occult Blood Test, Stool Culture, Barium Meal, drink or enema, CT, CAT or MRI scans, Defecography, Ultrasound, Colonoscopy, Endoscopic procedures and more. Consult your physician if you are worried about symptoms you are experiencing and they will help you to determine the best course of action.Because your gut microbiome is so important to your overall health [2], it’s important to understand what’s going on, and how your gut is balanced.Microbiome tests can be conducted by your physician or at home. Although some tests use blood or saliva, the most comprehensive microbiome tests will require a stool sample.Your stool sample will be sent to a laboratory to be tested where they will analyze the balance of microbes in your gastrointestinal system.This will help you and your doctor understand if there is an imbalance of microbes that is causing problems to your overall health.The Top 8 Ways to Improve Your Gut Health:Here’s the top 8 changes you can make to your lifestyle to help support and improve your gastrointestinal health: Eat a clean, diverse organic diet full of nutrient dense foods. Processed (especially fast) foods cause harm to your gut microbiome [3]. Be sure to include prebiotic foods (a type of fiber that isn’t digested) [4] such as oats, bananas, chicory and asparagus, because they promote the growth of certain types of good bacteria. Note: prebiotic foods can make issues worse IF you have too many bacteria in the small intestine. If you suspect this is the case, get the advice of a professional who specializes in gut health. Eat in a relaxed state, where you will naturally eat slower and chew your food properly. Being in a stressed state is sometimes necessary, but while you are in a stressed state, digestion slows down significantly, and you produce much less of the digestive juices you need to sanitize and process your food, like saliva, stomach acid and bile. You’ll also tend to eat more quickly and not chew enough. So make sure you calm down before you start eating, even if it’s just taking a few deep breaths. This is where the tradition of saying grace comes from: even if you have no religious leanings, you may want to consider it as a way of refocusing your mind to be in a less stressed state, which will help you digest better!And once you’re relaxed, it will be easier to chew your food enough, sometimes as much as 30 times before swallowing, which helps your body to more easily digest the food and absorb as many nutrients as possible [5]. Find out if you’re intolerant to certain foods. Eating foods you're intolerant to will affect your digestive health, resulting in bloating, gas, diarrhea and more [6]. Speak to your physician to organize a skin prick or blood test.Another way to narrow down your intolerances is to record the foods you’ve eaten - be sure to write down how these foods make you feel. Only change one or two things at a time, so that you can easily identify any changes.If you suspect a food, many recommend an elimination diet, where you remove the suspected food for around a week, and then introduce it again, seeing if you notice any symptoms when you add it back into your diet. Limit alcohol consumption. Alcohol can induce changes to the microbiome in the gastrointestinal tract, (due to its ability to kill bacteria, but not kill and often feed yeasts such as candida) which can lead to increased oxidative stress amongst other problems [7]. Reduce your stress. Chronic Stress can seriously affect your guts microbiome composition [8].Occasional Stress is healthy, but ongoing stress is not. If you struggle to relax, there are many ways to lower your stress levels, such as meditation. You can also try supplementing with our Serenity Anti-Stress Support or 5 HTP products. Improve your sleep. Poor sleep and sleep deprivation can affect your microbiome diversity [9]. Our Sleep Aid Plus can also help, and read the page for more info on how to Sleep better naturally. LINK! Drink more water and stay hydrated. This is another way to encourage microbiome diversity [10], and staying hydrated is essential to your overall health, as well as reducing the likelihood of constipation.   Take a digestive enzyme supplement that is also packed full of live “good” bacteria that can help to boost your digestion and gut microbiome: Protease. Responsible for breaking down proteins into amino acids. In a study on piglets, protease supplementation increased nutrient utilization efficiency and growth performance [11].Lipase. Responsible for the breakdown of Fat into fatty acids, ready for your cells to absorb. Lipase is a very important ingredient in a digestive enzyme blend, because many of us struggle to digest the amount of fat we eat.Lactobacillus acidophilus. Often referred to as L. acidophilus, lactobacillus acidophilus is a variety of bacteria that can be found in the intestines which is essential for human health [12].Lactobacillus casei.  A powerful probiotic that is extremely beneficial to the digestive system. A study on patients with chronic constipation found that a probiotic drink containing L.casei helped to see improvements alongside other therapy [13].Lactobacillus plantarum. Found mainly in fermented plant foods such as pickles, L. plantarum has been shown to have anti-inflammatory, blood sugar regulatory, anti-weight gain and antioxidant properties. Studies have shown L. plantarum to reduce the incidence of abdominal pain, loose stools and diarrhea associated with antibiotics [14].Bromelain. Found in pineapples - bromelain is an enzyme that digests protein and has powerful anti-inflammatory properties. It also has pain killing properties [15].Papain. Found in raw papaya plant fruit, papain is a proteolytic enzyme that helps to break down proteins. It has a whole host of benefits, from helping to maintain digestive tract physiology [16], to reducing pain, inflammation and helping to heal wounds quicker.Our digestive enzyme probiotic supplement includes Makzyme-Pro™ Enzyme Blend, which is a formula made up of Protease, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus casei and Lactobacillus plantarum. This powerful combination helps to improve your gut health and assists your body in breaking down foods more effectively so that nutrients can be absorbed more efficiently.In addition to Makzyme-Pro™ we have added Bromelain, Papain, Lipase, Lactase and Alpha Galactosidase to further enhance the power and effectiveness of the supplement.We understand that it’s not always easy, nor practical to implement a variety of lifestyle changes - especially all at once.We’d advise that you make as many of the changes listed further up this page as possible, but to do so 1 or 2 at a time, make sure they stick and then move onto more.In the meantime, you can support your body with essential good bacteria it needs to maintain a healthy gut microbiome.Here at Feel younger, we believe in providing strong doses at reasonable prices. Our Digestive Enzyme Probiotic Blend provides a strong and healthy dose of digestive enzymes, as well as billions of live bacteria, and will cost you no more than $27, with discounts available on multiple bottle and subscription purchases.How Do You Take Feel Younger® Digestive Enzyme Probiotic Blend?Take one capsule twice a day.For best results take 20-30 minutes before a meal.Any Cautions?In very rare cases, the combination of enzymes and probiotics in this supplement can cause constipation, nausea, cramps, diarrhea, throat irritation, and women could experience heavier menstrual bleeding Scientific References https://jneuroinflammation.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12974-019-1564-7 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4290017/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30945554/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18215222/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7219460/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6767923/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26695747/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7213601/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6779243/ https://academic.oup.com/jn/article/152/1/171/6395031 https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2405654515300354 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2519286/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/14631461/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/9815476/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3529416/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23524622/

Feel Younger Feel Younger - Omega 3 Fish Oil EPA+DHA 720mg 60caps
£29.00
Do you struggle with… Fatigue Dry skin Mood swings or depression Anxiety Poor memory Heart Problems Poor circulation If you answered yes to any of the above, you may be deficient in Omega-3 fatty acids, specifically EPA and DHA. Supplementing with omega-3s may be able to help.The potential benefits of omega-3s include the following(1): Reduces Depression and Anxiety Promote Brain Health During Pregnancy and Early Life Reduce Symptoms of ADHD in Children Reduces Inflammation May Improve Bone and Joint Health Improve Eye Health Improve Risk Factors for Heart Disease Reduce Symptoms of Metabolic Syndrome May Help Prevent Cancer What are Omega 3, EPA and DHA?Omega-3s are a family of essential fatty acids that play important roles in your body and may provide a number of health benefits (2).As your body cannot produce them on its own, you must get them from your diet. Common foods that are high in omega-3 fatty acids include fatty fish, fish oils, flax seeds, chia seeds, and walnuts.There are three main types of omega-3 fatty acids — ALA, DHA, and EPA.ALA Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) is the most common omega-3 fatty acid in your diet (3).Your body mainly uses it for energy, but it can also be converted into the biologically active forms of omega-3, EPA and DHA.However, this conversion process is inefficient. Only a small percentage of ALA is converted into the active forms (4).ALA is found in foods like flax seeds, flaxseed oil, canola oil, chia seeds, walnuts, hemp seeds, and soybeans.EPA Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) is mostly found in animal products, such as fatty fish and fish oil. However, some microalgae also contain EPA.It has several functions in your body. EPA prevents the blood from clotting easily, reduces triglyceride levels in the blood, and has effects that might reduce pain and swelling. (5) Getting more EPA in your diet has positive effects on coronary heart disease, high blood pressure, and inflammation. (6)DHA Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is the most important omega-3 fatty acid in your body.It’s a key structural component of your brain, the retina of your eyes, and numerous other body parts (7).Like EPA, it occurs mainly in animal products like fatty fish and fish oil. Meat, eggs, and dairy from grass-fed animals also tend to contain significant amounts.Research shows that omega-3 fatty acids reduce inflammation and may help lower risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease, cancer, and arthritis (8).Signs and symptoms of omega-3 deficiency include: (9) Skin irritation and dryness Dry Eyes Hair changes High Blood Pressure Fatigue Depression Joint pain and stiffness High Cholesterol Cardiovascular Disease Poor memory Long term omega 3 deficiencies can lead to severe health issues and chronic conditions over time. If you do not eat a diet high in oily fish, you may be at risk of a deficiency in omega-3s. And if you do eat a diet high in fish you could be at risk for high contamination from neurotoxins like mercury. There is essentially no mercury in omega-3 fish oil (10), as this neurotoxin binds to proteins and not oils.Methylmercury (MeHg) is the major organic form we are exposed to when we eat fish. All fish and shellfish contain some MeHg, but larger, longer-lived predatory fish generally have the highest levels. Methylmercury is particularly hazardous because it can cross the blood-brain barrier causing neurological impairment. (11) For this reason, many health advocates caution against eating a diet very high in fish.It is also important to have the proper ratio of omega-3 to omega-6 fatty acids in your diet (12) because too much omega 6 can be associated with worsening inflammation over time. (13). In fact, chronic inflammation may be one of the leading drivers of the most serious modern diseases. Those who follow a Western diet are typically eating way too many omega-6s relative to omega-3s. Adding an omega 3 supplement to your diet can optimize the balance of the omega fats which can reduce your risk of heart disease, chronic inflammation and cancer. (14)How do you know if you have a deficiency in Omega 3s?The only way to be sure is to get a blood test that tests your levels of Omega 3s, ideally including the ratio of Omega 3 to Omega 6. Although this is unfortunately not a test commonly done by MDs (yet), it is available privately at a relatively low cost in many countries.If testing is not an option, second best would be to evaluate if you are consuming an optimal amount of Omega 3 fats, specifically EPA and DHA. If you do not eat oily fish several times a week, then having a suboptimal deficiency is certainly a possibility, if you also don’t supplement this important nutrient, especially if you consume a lot of vegetable oils in your diet.Why use Feel Younger® Omega 3 Fish Oil with EPA and DHA?There are many different omega-3 supplements available. Not all omega 3s are equal in their health providing benefits, and there are a few reasons for this:1. Many company’s Omega 3 supplements don’t contain enough EPA and DHA.Feel Younger Omega 3 has a high amount of DHA and EPA per serving. EPA and DHA are considered the most important omega-3 fatty acids. EPA is extremely important for mood health, reducing blood clotting, pain and swelling.   DHA is necessary for the functional development of the brain and is also linked to improved heart health, better vision, and reduced inflammatory response.2. Many other Omega 3 supplements have a bad ratio of EPA to DHABoth DHA and EPA can reduce inflammation. However, it has been shown that a greater ratio of EPA to DHA seems to address inflammatory risk factors more effectively. (16)  Feel Younger Omega-3 has a higher ratio of EPA to DHA per serving.3. Many dietary sources of omega 3s are contaminated with Mercury and PCBs and other supplements can expose you to vitamin A toxicity. (17)Feel Younger Omega-3 is sourced freshly from high quality anchovies. They have some of the highest amounts of these beneficial fatty acids of all fish and seafood and despite their size, are densely packed with nutrition. Anchovies are a purer source of omega 3s compared to larger species of fatty fish which contain higher levels of pollutants and toxins. Swordfish, ahi and bigeye tuna, marlin, shark, tilefish, king mackerel and other fatty fish all contain high levels of contaminants. These larger fish that are higher up the food chain, and have lived longer, have had more time to accumulate toxins and pose the greatest risk.Feel Younger Omega 3 Fish Oil has 2400mg’s of Fish Oil including 864 mg of EPA and 576 mg of DHA giving you a high amount of essential omega-3s free of heavy metals and a good ratio of EPA to DHA per serving in a high quality supplement.How do you take it?Ideally take with water alongside a meal, for maximum absorption, but can be taken any time, or as directed by a healthcare professional.Any cautions? (19)Though omega-3 supplements are generally considered safe, you should check with a healthcare professional before taking them. If you are allergic to fish or shellfish, seek advice from your healthcare professional first.Fish oil is likely safe for most people in doses of 5 grams or less daily (20).Fish oil might slow blood clotting. Taking fish oil along with medications that also slow blood clotting might increase the risk of bruising and bleeding. (21)Always consult a qualified healthcare professional before making any changes to your diet or lifestyle.
