It’s pretty rare. While certain types of stress are good (eustress), usually intense and brief stresses like exercise, a cold shower or getting outside your comfort zone every now and then, long term, chronic stress (distress) has been proven to be a significant factor in creating a large variety of health problems.There are different categories of Stress: Mental Stress, like anxious thoughts and worrying about the past or future Chemical Stresses, like toxins and infections Emotional Stresses, like Anger and Sadness, or traumas And Physical Stresses, like Hunger, Cold, Exhaustion etc All of these are, to some degree, ‘normal’, and yet any of these stresses, once excessive, can cause significant and debilitating levels of suffering (distress), which can lead to health issues sooner or later.Any of the above stimuli can lead to being in a state of stress, which is where your fight or flight response activates your adrenal glands to release a cocktail of Neurochemicals into your body to help cope with the situation. Adrenaline, Noradrenaline and Cortisol are the 3 main Neurochemicals that are released.Adrenaline and Noradrenaline increase your heart rate, bring more blood flow into the muscles and lungs, give you a surge of energy and raise your blood pressure.Cortisol increases glucose levels in your blood, activates your brain to use more glucose and makes the substances that repair tissues more readily available in your body.All of this response is Good and Healthy, IF it is temporary (a few hours at most) and occasional (not every day).When you’re stressed, you can feel: Angry, irritable or uptight Overwhelmed Unable to focus Anxious and Worried Afraid If the Stress is Extreme enough, or Chronic enough, or both, you can go into another mode called the Dorsal Vagal Mode. In this state, the body has decided it is not worth fighting anymore, and the best strategy is to conserve energy and ‘play dead.’In this case, heart rate and blood pressure can go down, respiration decreases, energy production and metabolism decreases, and the person experiences very little energy or motivation, due to downregulation of Dopamine.This is often described as being depressed [1].In either case, whether you stay Chronically in a high stress state, or a Depressed state, or vacillation between the two, Prolonged exposure to these stress states can lead to many health problems, such as: High or Low Blood Pressure Heart problems Obesity Blood Sugar Dysregulation Skin Conditions Digestive Problems Allergies and Intolerances Exhaustion Trouble sleeping Headaches and dizziness Uncontrollable muscle tension, such as the clenching of your jaw Aches and pains Weakened immune system, often leading to repeated and/or chronic infections Difficulties having desire for sex (women) or inability to have sex (men). Panic attacks Can You Test For Stress?The best test for Stress is a 24 hour Saliva Cortisol Test, preferably with DHEA included.This gives you a snapshot of how much stress you are experiencing throughout the day, and can also give some clues as to whether the stress has been long term, and how depleted you are from it, if at all.The Top 8 Ways to Lower Your Stress Levels:Although there are situations that are out of your control that cause stress, the one thing you can learn to have control over is your emotional response to those situations.In other words, Stress is not something that happens to you, it’s your response to what happens to you. However, the stress response is largely automatic, so the only way to change how much situations ’stress you out’ is to retrain your nervous system to respond to situations in a more optimal way.Until recently, mainstream science believed that our ability to change our stress response was limited, but Wim Hof helped prove that we can control our response to even the most extreme stresses, proving his point by breaking dozens of world records and helping seemingly anyone who trained under him to completely change their stress response, e.g. by showing them how to climb to the top of Mount Everest unassisted wearing very little clothing!On a more practical, everyday level, there’s a variety of lifestyle changes you can make to help lower your stress levels, such as: Meditating. Studies have shown the positive impacts of meditation on stress levels [2]. This is traditionally used for lowering mental stress particularly, and is also great for lowering emotional stress. Eat a healthy organic diet. The negative effects of stress on your body can be lessened by eating a healthier, organic diet [3]. This reduces your Chemical Stress load. Do breathing exercises [4] which can lower your heart rate, blood pressure and reduce anxiety. There are many out there to try. This is traditionally used for lowering emotional stress particularly. Exercise regularly. Physical activity is a great way to have temporary physical stress which then actually lowers your overall stress and clears your mind [5].   Talk to someone about your problems. Simply “getting it off your chest” is a great way to reduce the pressure and stress you feel. Great for mental and emotional stress. Stay social. All humans are, to some degree, social beings, and social isolation has been proven to increase stress levels [6]. Make sure you interact with people who do not consistently increase your emotional and mental stress! Take some time off work. Whether that be a holiday, or giving yourself 2 days off a week - time off work where you can think about nothing and totally relax is essential to lower your stress. Support your body with nutrients and minerals that will help you to be more relaxed, and lower your stress levels: Calcium. Extreme fatigue can be caused by calcium deficiency, which can lead to insomnia [7]. Insomnia can lead to feeling worried, which in turn makes the insomnia worse!When we are sleep deprived, we are more susceptible to stress [8].B-Complex Vitamins. B vitamins, such as thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, pyridoxine, biotin, d-calcium and pantothenate play crucial roles in mood regulation [9].Plus, the more stress we experience, the more B Vitamins we use. And then when we get low in B Vitamins we are less resilient to stress. Another vicious circle! Break the cycle with extra B Vitamins.Magnesium. Research suggests that being deficient in magnesium can increase your susceptibility to stress and anxiety [10], which causes further magnesium loss, and more stress [11].Zinc. Over time, zinc supplementation [12] can help to stabilize cortisol levels and raise your mood [13].Potassium. Studies have shown that potassium plays an important role in helping to regulate blood pressure [14].GABA. GABA (gamma aminobutyric acid) is an amino acid that naturally occurs in the body. It works as a neurotransmitter in the brain by attaching to GABA receptors (a protein in the brain) to produce a calming effect.As such, it can help reduce anxiety, stress and fear and also help with sleep [15].Lemon Balm. Lemon balm can help to reduce anxiety and symptoms of stress which helps you to relax more easily [16].A study showed that laboratory-induced psychological stress was eased when taking lemon balm and those who took the lemon balm self reported increased calmness and alertness [17].Passionflower. Passionflower (P. incarnata) is a herb that is thought to help lessen symptoms of insomnia [18] and reduce anxiety [19].It potentially does this by boosting the levels of GABA in your brain.Oat Straw. Oat straw has been used traditionally as a natural remedy to help relieve anxiety, depression and stress [20].It is thought to do this by inhibiting PDE4 (enzyme phosphodiesterase type 4), which in doing so could help relieve stress and anxiety [21].Introducing Feel Younger® Serenity Anti-Stress SupportWe 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 those changes as possible, but 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 lower your stress levels.That’s why in addition to the ingredients listed above, we’ve added the following ingredients to our Serenity Anti-Stress Support formula: Rhodiola Extract - can help to reduce anxieties and combat depress [22] Lutein - in mice, potentially helped to combat depression by protecting nerves in the hippocampus (a part of the brain responsible for emotions and memory) [23] Ashwagandha - has been used for centuries as a tonic to help calm nerves. In two studies ashwagandha was shown to improve stress and happiness, while reducing cortisol levels [24] Chamomile - A study on long-term ingestion of chamomile showed it reduced anxiety [25]   Skullcap - a study showed those who took skullcap daily for 2 weeks reported better mood compared to the placebo group [26] Hawthorn - is thought to potentially help reduce anxiety [27] and has been used traditionally in chinese medicine to help lower blood pressure [28] Bacopa - considered an adaptogenic herb (helps the body to adapt to stress), a study on rodents showed bacopa to have anti-anxiety effects similar to certain prescription medications [29] Magnolia - contains neolignans (a type of polyphenol found in plants) that is believed to have many health benefits, one of which is helping with anxiety [30] Valerian - A study on hemodialysis patients showed valerian significantly improved anxiety, stress and mood compared to a placebo [31] L-Theanine - A review on people in experiencing stressful situations found that 4 of the 5 trials showed L-theanine to reduce stress and anxiety [32] Mucuna Pruriens - can help boost dopamine levels (the ‘feel good’ hormone) [33] St John’s Wort - has ingredients that appear to help regulate and elevate mood by increasing dopamine, noradrenaline, serotonin and other chemical messengers in the brain [34] Hops - over a 4 week period, hops appeared to improve self reported symptoms of at least mid anxiety, stress and depression [35] 5 HTP - the precursor to serotonin. Having low serotonin levels can be associated with sleeping problems, anxiety, depression and more [36] By combining the ingredients listed on this page 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.How Do You Take Feel Younger® Serenity Anti-Stress Support?For best results, take 2 capsules once a day with a glass of water, 20-30 minutes before a meal.Any Cautions?ALWAYS consult a healthcare professional before taking any new supplements.

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.

Pharma Nord Pharma Nord Bio-Ubiquinol Active QH 30mg - 60 caps
£19.95
Q10 Ubiquinol is also known as Pharma Nord's Bio-Ubiquinol Active QH. Contains coenzyme Q10 in its reduced form ubiquinol, which may benefit elderly people or individuals with impaired digestion who are less able to absorb supplemental Q10 in its ubiquinone form.Bio-Ubiquinol Active QH contains vitamin C that contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue and contributes to a normal energy-yielding metabolism. Why Pharma Nord Bio-Ubiquinol Actve QH: Manufactured to pharmaceutical standards. Only ubiquinol formula with guaranteed stability. Reference product for the International Coenzyme Q10 Association. Patented oil-based preparation for maximum absorption. Coenzyme Q10 is a naturally occurring, vitamin-like substance that plays a key role in the body’s energy supply process. Every cell within the body requires a constant supply of energy to survive and function - without this constant energy supply the cells die. Different tissues within the body may have particular energy requirements to function optimally- a good example is muscle tissue, which has an extremely high-energy requirement during physical exertion. Without an adequate energy supply in such circumstances, individuals may feel tired and lacking motivation to undertake physical exercise. This can even affect how we feel when carrying out daily tasks. Coenzyme Q10 (ubiquinone) is required to convert sugars and fats from food into energy, in the form of a specific molecule called ATP (adenosine triphosphate). This process takes place in specialized structures within cells called mitochondria. Some coenzyme Q10 is manufactured within the body, with the remainder being obtained from the diet. As individuals age, the body is less able to maintain optimal levels of coenzyme Q10. In addition, coenzyme Q10 levels are depleted by lifestyle factors such as alcohol consumption and smoking, as well as by physical exertion or by illness. Dietary supplementation can help to maintain optimal levels of coenzyme Q10 within the body. Coenzyme Q10 occurs in two forms; Ubiquinone (oxidised form). Q10 Ubiquinone is also known as Pharma Nord’s Bio-Quinone Q10. Most people are able to absorb supplemental Q10 in this form adequately. Ubiquinol (reduced form). Q10 Ubiquinol is also known as BioActive Q10. Certain categories of people may be less able to absorb the ubiquinone form. These include the elderly, as well as people with liver disease, pancreatic disease, digestive disorders such as IBS, and following digestive tract surgery. For such categories of people, Q10 is more easily absorbed in the reduced (ubiquinol) form, as BioActive Q10. Ubiquinol is extremely sensitive to the effects of air and light. Bio-Ubiquinol Active QH contains ubiquinol Q10 in a stabilised form, using specially developed lightproof and air-proof packaging to prevent oxidation via a unique patented process. The manufacturing process ensures complete dissolution of the Q10 crystals in an oil blend that is encapsulated in light-proof gelatine caps and blister-packed. Pharma Nord is able to guarantee the stability of this product during the whole of the product shelf life. Inferior brands of Q10 sold in tablet form and in jars cannot guarantee the bio-availability of the active ingredients within. Pharma Nord recommends 1-3 capsules per day of Q10 ubiquinol supplements, or as directed by a physician. Preferably taken in split doses and best taken with food to enhance absorption. Coenzyme Q10 has been subject to over 1000 clinical studies, with no contraindications reported. There are over 70 studies featuring Bio-Quinone Q10, which is a reference product for the International Q10 Association. Pregnant or lactating women and those on medication should consult a doctor before using any product. Safety Pharma Nord manufacture all of their products to pharmaceutical standards and adhere to Good Manufacturing Practice. This is a guarantee of safety and efficacy. The safety of ubiquinol has been demonstrated in a clinical study reported by Hosoe et al (2007): Study on the safety and bio-availability of ubiquinol after single and 4-week multiple oral administration to healthy volunteers. Regul Toxicol Pharmacol; 47(1): 19-28. ohn Farrell | 22/12/2015 I decided to start taking CoQ10 largely because I was on so much medication for my diabetes and blood pressure. I was concerned that my age and the medication were both interfering with my body's ability to generate CoQ10, so I decided to be proactive about it and went on 300 mg/day of Ubiquinol. I no longer feel as tired. I have a lot more energy. My mouth feels better, with no gum disease. I am sure that the CoQ10 has helped lower my blood pressure to some extent and my leg cramps have improved too. I feel that my natural immunity has been boosted and that will be due to the ongoing antioxidant action of the CoQ10. My cholesterol is well controlled with not a statin in sight. I feel a lot happier about my heart in respect of a reduced likelihood of cardiac events resulting from diabetes. Joan Freeman | 17/08/2015 Q10 for me has been like a miracle. I was born with a hole in my heart. I went from being told there was nothing that could be done for me as I was too complicated to where I am now. As a nine year old child my parents were told that I would be in a wheelchair by the time I was 12 years of age and would most likely not reach 21 without heart surgery which in 1955 was in its infancy. I believe I was the second in the UK to have an open heart operation. Here I am 70 years of age. I was told as a young married woman I must not entertain having children, I have three and my second pregnancy was twins. I suffered from breathlessness and tiredness but since taking Pharma Nord's Q10 this has improved. All I can say is I thank The LORD for the day I spoke to whoever it was I spoke to on the telephone from Pharma Nord in 2009. Rosemary Laidlaw | 17/04/2014 Multivits has an excellent choice of vitamins and minerals. I swear by Pharma Nord's Ubiquinol version of Co Enzyme Q10. It is the most expensive of the Q10 range but there is a school of thought that as we age we need a product with the best absorbency. I prefer to believe this to be true hence I continue to purchase the product and was so relieved it was on a recent offer. My husband used to be on Statins which I used to give him Q10 to put back the enzyme that product took out. Finally after years of many battles with the medical profession, doctor's are finally seeing the true light re that medication. Mr A M Spear | 18/11/2013 This will be my second month of taking COQ10, and the amount of benefit has been unsurpassable. Taking C0Q10 has really given me an added boost to my health and well being.  Beatrice Martin | 08/10/2013 I have started to take co q10 for a month and i am beginning to feel better not so anxious. I knew nothing about co q10 until my son went to the opticians and was told co q10 is good for eyesight.  Jason Eastham | 16/08/2013 Taken for 1 month. Felt improvements in energy on some days but may be because of being only 30mg! Elaine Green | 29/05/2013 I've been taking Q10 Ubiquinol for 6 months or more and I felt I had a spring in my step from the moment I started using this product; I feel I have more energy and the fact that it protects my heart is a definite bonus. Its amazing and I'd recommend it to anyone. Lian Renaud | 24/05/2013 I suffered from muscle and back pain for many years. I was then prescribed statins, which caused muscle paralysis and muscle waste. Doctors advice was continue with the statins, thinking perhaps the doctor knew best I took one more tablet, I was horrendously ill and then had months of pain. My friend is a Treger practitioner recommended CO Q 10 Ubiquinol, I didn't fully believe the claims but I trusted my friend. Four and a half days later a lot of the pain lifted, and I slept through the nights. Another friend had serious back pain and took CO Q 10 Ubiquinol, she is over the moon as four and a half days later most pain has gone. I was dubious as I saw many claims for wonder remedies,but I feel extremely lucky that I now have a future without the terrible pain I experienced for some three years or more. I am grateful to Treger and Pharma Nord. Pain curtails any enjoyment of life..........but now I have a lot of restored energy and hope......that's the best and least expected benefit ever. I recommend Both Treger and Pharma Nord CO Q 10 unreservedly. Patricia Gooch | 26/04/2013 This is certainly the most superior product to be found on the market. The delivery was prompt and well presented. I always order my vitamins from Pharma Nord because it is so dependable  Raymond Finlay | 19/04/2013 Finding a noticable improvement in reduction of joint pain after being on Q10 for the last 3 months Fergal | 19/04/2013 Ubiquinol Q10 is just fantastic. I am over fifty and find that it has quickly restored my energy levels and reduced my blood pressure that was beginning to climb a little above normal. I ran out of them recently and was without any for three days and noticed my energy levels fall right back to where they were before - I would highly recommend them - especially with the selenium to ensure continued cardiovascular health. Expensive but really well worth it in the end. colin j lomax | 19/04/2013 i'm 66 yrs old and i've got to say q10 as certainly increased my energy levels enabling me to go the gym daily and enjoy walking Graham | 19/04/2013 Over 50 & on statins the tiredness, aches & pains were inevitable but 2 100mg Q10 Ubiquinol per day and the energy levels are back where they should be. Pharma Nord's Bioactive Q10 is not the cheapest but in my view the best I have tried, Quality costs & my health is priceless to me. Mairead Welby | 18/04/2013 I started taking 100mg Bio Active Q10 ubiquinol about 4 months ago i noticed after about 2 weeks my energy had improved so much. I then noticed that a vein in my leg which was causing me alot of discomfort and fluid retention was no longer painful and fluid retention was no longer a problem. I am def. going keep taking this product it is truly amazing. Alan Garner | 18/04/2013 I have read many good reports praising BioActive Q10 Ubiquinol and can confirm that I am feeling the benefits along with reduced blood pressure results that are now more acceptable for a 74 year old. chris | 18/04/2013 as an aging builder energy levels were declining so i tried 100mg Ubiquinol and have been pleased with the results,good for your heart too Gary Davis | 18/04/2013 I've taken Q10 for a while now and, when I forgot to reorder, I do notice. John S | 18/04/2013 I am 58 and do a lot of hill walking but last year suddenly found my energy just collasped. I tried several things but the only one that worked was bioActive Q10 Ubiquinol. After taking it for 3 weeks I found the energy and stamina returned to normal but it is taking a while to rebuild confidence. Will keep taking it from now on. The effect seems subtle but very powerful. Miles | 18/04/2013 I am 54 and a few years ago a virus affected my heart muscle and I collapsed during a hospital exercise test at heart rate 130 bpm and was told by a consultant cardiologist not to exercise. I am now recovered and have been taking 100mg Q10 Ubiquinol daily for 18 months which gives me the energy to walk long distances, run competively, and play tennis. I also now row competively and the Concept 2 ergos (rowing machines), which don't lie, tell me that my energy and fitness levels compare with club members 20 years younger! I know that the extra energy comes from the daily 100mg Ubiquinol Q10, and it also lowers my blood pressure. I can't rate this product highly enough. With many supplements you can't feel the difference - with Ubiquinol Q10 you really can. I ran 4.5 miles this morning at 70% of my max heart rate and am just off to the rowing club for UT1 ergo training! I would not be without Ubiquinol Q10. Keith Sheriff | 18/04/2013 I was recommended ubiquinol BioActive Q10 by a health professional for my heart. I can't tell if its doing anything great for my heart but I was shocked when my gums stopped bleeding (they have bled all my adult life). When I went to see my dentist they were amazed how good my gums were looking too. On top of all that I have more energy and am not as fatigued as I used to be. So all in all I say go for it and give them a try - you owe it to yourself to at least try them and see. Doreen | 31/01/2013 I have been taking Q10 and subsequently Ubiquinol for approximately 18 months. I found that it actually appears to have stablised my blood pressure which was high even though I was taking medication. I also feel I have more energy when taking Ubiquinol as if I stop taking the tablets for a week or more I feel tired more quickly.  Thitimanun | 08/05/2012 My parents about 86 years old ,they take 2 capsules of 100 mg BioActive Q10 everyday for their hearts and energy. They look well, happy and have a good mood. I considered that they should take the capsules continually. Linda Letford | 27/04/2012 I am absolutely thrilled with Ubiquinol. I have had chronic fatigue for several years now and it has given me back my energy to live my life, and a side effect is that my migraines have much reduced in frequency and intensity Buzzardman | 27/04/2012 I take 2 30mg Ubiquinol per day as I understand that q10 production diminishes as we get older. I lead an active life and hope to continue for as long as possible. I cannot say that I feel any different but I treat it as insurance for my heart.  Sean | 26/04/2012 I started taking 100mg of BioActive Q10 Ubiquinol some months ago and right from the first capsule it worked for me. The best way I can describe It is, it was like a switch been turned on with the lovely feeling I got of calm and serinity. So I would not be without my Ubiquinol every day.

Pharma Nord Pharma Nord Bio-Ubiquinol Active QH 30mg - 150 caps
£34.99
Q10 Ubiquinol is also known as Pharma Nord's Bio-Ubiquinol Active QH. Contains coenzyme Q10 in its reduced form ubiquinol, which may benefit elderly people or individuals with impaired digestion who are less able to absorb supplemental Q10 in its ubiquinone form.Bio-Ubiquinol Active QH contains vitamin C that contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue and contributes to a normal energy-yielding metabolism. Why Pharma Nord Bio-Ubiquinol Actve QH: Manufactured to pharmaceutical standards. Only ubiquinol formula with guaranteed stability. Reference product for the International Coenzyme Q10 Association. Patented oil-based preparation for maximum absorption. Coenzyme Q10 is a naturally occurring, vitamin-like substance that plays a key role in the body’s energy supply process. Every cell within the body requires a constant supply of energy to survive and function - without this constant energy supply the cells die. Different tissues within the body may have particular energy requirements to function optimally- a good example is muscle tissue, which has an extremely high-energy requirement during physical exertion. Without an adequate energy supply in such circumstances, individuals may feel tired and lacking motivation to undertake physical exercise. This can even affect how we feel when carrying out daily tasks. Coenzyme Q10 (ubiquinone) is required to convert sugars and fats from food into energy, in the form of a specific molecule called ATP (adenosine triphosphate). This process takes place in specialized structures within cells called mitochondria. Some coenzyme Q10 is manufactured within the body, with the remainder being obtained from the diet. As individuals age, the body is less able to maintain optimal levels of coenzyme Q10. In addition, coenzyme Q10 levels are depleted by lifestyle factors such as alcohol consumption and smoking, as well as by physical exertion or by illness. Dietary supplementation can help to maintain optimal levels of coenzyme Q10 within the body. Coenzyme Q10 occurs in two forms; Ubiquinone (oxidised form). Q10 Ubiquinone is also known as Pharma Nord’s Bio-Quinone Q10. Most people are able to absorb supplemental Q10 in this form adequately. Ubiquinol (reduced form). Q10 Ubiquinol is also known as BioActive Q10. Certain categories of people may be less able to absorb the ubiquinone form. These include the elderly, as well as people with liver disease, pancreatic disease, digestive disorders such as IBS, and following digestive tract surgery. For such categories of people, Q10 is more easily absorbed in the reduced (ubiquinol) form, as BioActive Q10. Ubiquinol is extremely sensitive to the effects of air and light. Bio-Ubiquinol Active QH contains ubiquinol Q10 in a stabilised form, using specially developed lightproof and air-proof packaging to prevent oxidation via a unique patented process. The manufacturing process ensures complete dissolution of the Q10 crystals in an oil blend that is encapsulated in light-proof gelatine caps and blister-packed. Pharma Nord is able to guarantee the stability of this product during the whole of the product shelf life. Inferior brands of Q10 sold in tablet form and in jars cannot guarantee the bio-availability of the active ingredients within. Pharma Nord recommends 1-3 capsules per day of Q10 ubiquinol supplements, or as directed by a physician. Preferably taken in split doses and best taken with food to enhance absorption. Coenzyme Q10 has been subject to over 1000 clinical studies, with no contraindications reported. There are over 70 studies featuring Bio-Quinone Q10, which is a reference product for the International Q10 Association. Pregnant or lactating women and those on medication should consult a doctor before using any product. Safety Pharma Nord manufacture all of their products to pharmaceutical standards and adhere to Good Manufacturing Practice. This is a guarantee of safety and efficacy. The safety of ubiquinol has been demonstrated in a clinical study reported by Hosoe et al (2007): Study on the safety and bio-availability of ubiquinol after single and 4-week multiple oral administration to healthy volunteers. Regul Toxicol Pharmacol; 47(1): 19-28. ohn Farrell | 22/12/2015 I decided to start taking CoQ10 largely because I was on so much medication for my diabetes and blood pressure. I was concerned that my age and the medication were both interfering with my body's ability to generate CoQ10, so I decided to be proactive about it and went on 300 mg/day of Ubiquinol. I no longer feel as tired. I have a lot more energy. My mouth feels better, with no gum disease. I am sure that the CoQ10 has helped lower my blood pressure to some extent and my leg cramps have improved too. I feel that my natural immunity has been boosted and that will be due to the ongoing antioxidant action of the CoQ10. My cholesterol is well controlled with not a statin in sight. I feel a lot happier about my heart in respect of a reduced likelihood of cardiac events resulting from diabetes. Joan Freeman | 17/08/2015 Q10 for me has been like a miracle.

Feel Younger Feel Younger - Magnesium Glycinate 425mg 60caps
£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.

What can cause excess levels of Estrogen? There are many factors that can lead to excess levels of estrogen, including: Certain antibiotics, medications and other pharmaceuticals Hypogonadism (and other problems that can lead to hormone imbalances) Excess weight/obesity Liver problems Stres Poor diet, and particularly eating: soy, fruit and veg sprayed with pesticides, plastic containers, styrofoam and water bottles Aging Fabric softeners, detergents, most shampoos and lotions Inhaling xenoestrogens from gasses of chemicals from many things, such as: paint, fuel, lubricants, packing materials, plant fertilizers, carpets, printers & copiers, air fresheners and more.   Can you test the levels of estrogen in your body?There are a few different ways that you can test the levels of estrogen in your body: A blood test that needs to be done at your physician's office A 24 hour urine test - your physician will give you a container to collect all of the urine you pass within a 24 hour period. A saliva test - this can be done at home. Contact your physician for the next steps. The Top 10 Ways to lower the estrogen levels in your body:Whether you have a little extra estrogen, or excessive levels of estrogen - or simply just suspect it… here’s the top 10 ways you can reduce estrogen in your body: Eat an Organic, clean and nutrient dense diet. Pesticides are known to be EDCs (endocrine disrupting chemicals interfere with the endocrine system that controls hormone production in your body). EDCs can have an estrogenic, antiestrogenic, androgenic or antiandrogenic effect.   Limiting your exposure to pesticides may help to decrease concentrations of estradiol and the suppression of testosterone production in your body [1].There are concerns over soy (that contain phytoestrogens) raising estrogen levels in men [2], so it’s probably best to avoid soy products. Reduce your stress. Although hormone production is not solely linked to the HPA axis (how your body copes with stress), extreme or prolonged stress can cause an imbalance of hormones, and can either suppress or encourage the production of testosterone and/or estrogen.There are many ways to reduce your stress, such as meditation and breathing exercises. You can also try supplementing with our Serenity Anti-Stress Support, Saffron and 5 HTP products. Lift some weights. Lifting weights has been proven to raise testosterone levels, helping you along the way to balancing your hormones [3]. Lose some weight. Eating a clean, organic and nutrient dense diet (1st point) will help to normalize your weight over time. Being overweight can be linked to increased levels of estrogen [4]. Avoid certain medications. There are many antibiotics, medications and other pharmaceuticals that contain estrogens - ampicillin for example. Taking these medicines will increase your estrogen levels significantly, countering any efforts you’re making to lower them. Limit your exposure to microplastics. To create plastics, EDCs are used as additives in the process. Limiting your exposure to microplastics can help to return hormonal balance to your body [5].Things you should try to avoid are: foods wrapped in plastic, plastic tupperware, plastic bottles, eating out of styrofoam (or any type of plastic) - especially when hot, which causes plastic to literally melt into the food… nasty! Limit your exposure to xenoestrogens. A man made chemical that mimics estrogen - these chemicals disrupt hormonal balance in our bodies.Things to avoid: synthetic fragrances and perfumes, air fresheners, aerosol sprays, scented candles, laundry detergents, fabric softeners, household cleaning products… Hopefully you can see the recurring theme here - anything that smells nice and is synthetically made. Natural fragrances are fine.You’ll also need to steer clear from the smell of new carpets, printer & copier ink, paint, packing materials, artificial lubricants, fuel, plant fertilizers and more. Anything that emits these man made fumes contains xenoestrogens [6].If you absolutely have to use cleaning chemicals, for example, consider using a mask to stop inhalation of the fumes, and leave windows and doors open. Take a test for hypogonadism (especially if you have diabetes). You could be experiencing symptoms of hypogonadism, as opposed to excess levels of estrogen in your body [7]. Arrange a liver test. Cirrhosis of the liver is when scar tissue builds up as a result of liver damage. Estrogen concentration in cirrhotic patients is thought to increase by fourfold [8].    Support your body with the nutrients and minerals it needs to boost testosterone and protect your liver as it removes excess estrogen in your body: Indole-3-carbinol. Found in cruciferous vegetables such as cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli and kale - indole-3-carbinol can help to balance estradiol levels, while aiding estrogen detoxification [9].Chrysin. A flavonoid found in honey and mint - chrysin has been shown to possess aromatase (plays a crucial role in the biosynthesis of estrogens) inhibiting qualities [10]. Aromatase converts testosterone into estradiol.Resveratrol. Resveratrol can bind to estrogen receptors which has a balancing effect on estrogen levels [11].Fenugreek. Has been shown to increase testosterone in men, and can help to reduce body fat [12] and therefore, aromatase (higher levels of body fat is associated with increased levels of aromatase).Tongkat Ali. Can block aromatase [13] and has been shown to increase sperm quality in mice by reversing the inhibition of testosterone production caused by estrogen [14].3-4-Divanillyltetrahydrofuran. A compound present in stinging nettle roots (urtica fissa) - 3-4-DVT has been shown to increase the activity of testosterone in cell cultures [15].Milk Thistle. Contains a compound called Silymarin which acts as an antioxidant and can provide protection to the liver. Silymarin has been used to treat a whole host of liver problems [16]. Excess estrogen levels can lead to liver problems [17].N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine. Has hepatic (liver) protective qualities and has been used as an effective drug to treat liver disorders [18].
