5-HTP
Dietary Supplement to
help increase serotonin levels in the brain
60 capsules - $42.50
Description: 5-HTP, also
known as 5-hydroxytryptophan, is the direct precursor
to the neurotransmitter serotonin. Low levels of serotonin
are associated with sleep problems, depression, anxiety,
compulsive eating disorders, restless leg syndrome,
migraines, fibromyalgia and low pain threshold. Many
people that are afflicted with one of those conditions
often have others, which has led some researchers
to label them collectively as "Low Serotonin
Syndrome".
Serotonin is an important initiator of sleep. In numerous
studies, 5-HTP has been shown to decrease the time
required to get to sleep, increases REM sleep and
deep sleep.
By increasing the brain’s concentration
of serotonin, an antidepressant effect is created.
5-HTP works by increasing the amount of serotonin
manufactured in the brain. Although systematically
administered serotonin does not readily enter the
brain, its direct precursor, 5-HTP does penetrate
the blood-brain barrier, and therefore, dietary consumption
of 5-HTP leads to an increase in brain serotonin concentration.

FISH
OIL PLUS
Enteric coated concentrated
and stabilized purity certified, Omega-3 fish oils.
Dietary Supplement,
120 softgels. $42.00
Description:
Fish Oil Plus provides
a higher concentration of the same cold water fish
oil contained in EPA-DHA Complex®. It features
high levels of the omega-3 essential fatty acids.
To assure maximum freshness, the oil is stabilized
with Vitamin E (as mixed tocopherols), is molecularly
distilled and is independently verified to be free
of PCB's, heavy metals and pesticides. EPA and DHA
from fish oil promote cardiovascular health by supporting
optimal triglyceride and cholesterol levels and
reducing platelet aggregation. Fish oil has also
been shown to promote optimal joint function and
healthy brain and nervous system function. The enteric-coated
softgels enhance compliance and absorption.
Added Bonus: Smoother and younger looking skin!
If your skin is dry, prone to inflammation, and
frequently dotted with white heads and black heads,
you may be lacking essential fatty acids, nutrients
that are crucial to the production of skin's natural
oil barrier. Without an adequate supply of EFAs,
the skin produces a more irritating form of sebum,
or oil, which can result in problems.
Suggested Use: Take
one or two softgels one to three times daily or
as directed by your healthcare practitioner.
Caution: If you are
pregnant or nursing, taking prescription medication,
including blood thinners, or about to have surgery,
consult your healthcare practitioner before use.
