Rose Ox

Stone age man lived on berries, fruit and plant life. Today, many of us survive on ready-meals, fast food and denatured produce. We have come a long way, yet nutritionally, in some ways, we have taken a step backwards.

Rose0x is the first of a new generation of antioxidant products designed to work synergistically with traditional antioxidant Vitamins C, E, and carotenoids, in order to help support the body's digestive system.

RoseOx herbal formula helps to replenish the precious nutrients lost daily through poor diet, pollution and stress and assists in the improvement of general well-being.

Identify YourNeeds...

Why do I need antioxidants?
Everyday, our bodies are bombarded with the negative effects of pollution, stress and poor diet, which increases the production of free radicals and affects our immune system.

To provide support against this daily barrage, it is wise to take protective measures in the form of antioxidant supplementation.

How many of the following apply to your day to day life?
Irregular meals or missing meals; high consumption of fat-saturated or sugary foods; drinking alcohol regularly, smoking; long distance travelling, lack of regular exercise; exposure to fumes, chemicals and toxins; lack of, or poor quality sleep; stress at home or work; catching colds frequently with slow recovery rate.

Each of these factors allow free radicals to proliferate and weaken your immune system. If you increase your intake of antioxidant-rich foods, and take a quality antioxidant supplement, your `defence' against the damage caused by free radicals can be improved,

Why is it so important to eat at least 5 servings of fresh fruit and vegetables each day?
These contain natural forms of antioxidants. Fresh fruit and vegetables provide you with protection. If your lifestyle doesn't allow enough time to prepare balanced meals that include plenty of fresh produce then you may want to top up your antioxidants with RoseOx – a quality supplement.

Are the fruit and vegetables you eat fresh?
Poor storage, old produce, and over cooking affect the nutritional value and antioxidant power of fruit and vegetables.

How often do I fall ill?
If you feel that you are ill too often, this may be an indication that your immune system is not protecting you adequately; warning that you need to take better care of your overall health.

Examine your lifestyle to find ways to improve general well-being and then take steps to help support your immune system - more fruit, plenty of seasonal vegetables, and a quality antioxidant product, like Rose0x

Formula 4 Unsaturated Fatty Acid Capsules

Despite the bad press that `fat' has received over recent years, our bodies need specific fats because they are essential to the function of every human cell. These 'good' fats provide essential fatty acids (EFA's), which the body cannot manufacture and must therefore, obtain from dietary sources.

This dietary supplement uses safflower oil to supply oleic, linoleic and linolenic acids, to complement your diet and top-up your body's daily requirements for EFA's.

Identify Your Needs...

So what was all the bad press about then?
The media bombarded us with the health risks associated with a high-fat diet - too much fat clogs up arteries, causing heart disease and high blood pressure; creates digestive distress and a sluggish system.

Then we learned about the problems associated with too little fat and fat excluding diets, which could cause joint stiffness and poor skin quality.

Which fats are good and which are bad?
Simply remember two words. saturated fat versus unsaturated fat. Saturated fat is solid at room temperature; it comes from animals (meat, cheeses, eggs etc) and Palm Kernel Oil.

These fats are not essential and are the type that encourage free radical damage, they should be kept to a minimum. The more solid (saturated) a fat is, the more difficulty your body has digesting it, and because of this, it is more likely to be deposited and stored!

Unsaturated fats include the essential fats your body uses to keep you warm, insulate nerve cells, balance hormones and keep your skin soft and supple.

From here it gets a little more complicated: the unsaturated fats fall into two main groups - mono and polyunsaturated fats, Polyunsaturated fats split down into two further groups: Omega 3 (alpha linolenic acid) and Omega 6 (Iinoleic acid) essential fatty acids.

Why your body needs monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats?
Much of the fat we eat is of the bad 'saturated' type, and includes hydrogenated oils which have been over processed leaving them with no nutritional value.

Various products, such as margarine, contain damaged polyunsaturates, known as trans-fats' Consuming too much of these bad fats interfere with the body's uptake of unsaturated fat.

It is now recognised that the typical western diet frequently leaves us short of these essential fats which are so important to our well-being. Health professionals now recommend that we consider supplementing our diet with a quality product, such as Unsaturated Fatty Acid Capsules, and benefit from the positive properties of the essential unsaturated fatty acids.

How will your weight control efforts benefit?
Cutting down on the bad fats will leave your body with less fat to store and reduce the interference bad fats cause to the uptake of good fats. Your body can now make better use of the essential fats that are available.

Formula 4 provides a daily supply in capsule form of these valuable and beneficial fats.

*Statistics obtained from 2004-05 National Health Survey Summary of results Australia and www.arthritis.org.nz

How does glucosamine work?

Glucosamine sulfate has been clinically proven to be as effective as a prescription medicine for the relief of the symptoms of mild to moderate osteoarthritis. But unlike pharmaceutical medicines that simply manage the symptoms, glucosamine helps to delay the progression of the disease. Furthermore, certain prescription medications have significant side effects.

Can a person with normal joints benefit from glucosamine supplementation?

Long term maintenance is important to protect the health of your joints. Glucosamine is found in high concentrations in cartilage and other connective tissues. The cartilage producing cells in our body can either synthesise glucosamine themselves or obtain it from circulating performed glucosamine (supplements). As we age, the body's ability to produce glucosamine decreases. Supplementing with glucosamine sulfate may help to repair and rebuild worn or damaged cartilage, associated with osteoarthritis.

Why are selenium and manganese important minerals?

Selenium and Manganese are essential minerals. Due to declining amounts of selenium found naturally in soil, it is important to supplement your diet. Selenium acts as a powerful antioxidant whilst manganese, is good for bone health and acts as a cofactor in several metabolic and enzymatic reactions.

What are the symptoms of osteoarthritis?

Symptoms include pain, selling, inflammation and stiffness which limits mobility and can even impact your daily life. These symptoms are caused when cartilage, the smooth covering over bones in the joints starts to break down over time and the bones come into contact with one another.

Key Ingredients:
Each tablet contains Glucosamine sulfate: 1500mg, Selenium: 26mcg, Manganese: 1mg.

Xtra-Cal

Xtra-Cal contains one of the most concentrated forms of calcium, which can assist in the prevention of Osteoporosis. Several other specially chosen vitamins, minerals and herbs have been included to benefit skeletal health by providing nourishment for your bones.

Identify Your Needs...

Calcium - the most abundant mineral in your body, providing strength for your skeleton. In addition to this major function calcium is important in nerves and muscles. It is possible, that by the time you are 50, you may have lost as much as 25% of your bone mass due to Osteoporosis.

Key Ingredient Properties:

Xtra-Cal is a nutritional supplement that can provide the calcium needed for strong, healthy bones.

Our formula includes Vitamin D that is essential for calcium absorption together with other vitamins, minerals and herbs.

It is also free of salt, artificial colour and sugar.

So what causes Osteoporosis and how can you help prevent it?

Studies suggest that the main culprits are high non-dairy protein diets, excessive coffee, or lack of calcium.

Protein is an acid-forming substance, when there is an excess of acid, the body tries to neutralise it with alkaline agents (calcium and sodium), which then reduces the body's alkaline reserves.

To become less susceptible to Osteoporosis, cut down coffee intake to two cups a day, exercise for 30 minutes every other day and ensure calcium intake is adequate (at least 800mg daily).

Isn't calcium easy to obtain from the diet?

It should be, but unfortunately, coffee and alcohol rob the body of calcium. High fat and excessive fibre can inhibit the absorption of calcium, 'YoYo' dieting and irregular eating can also affect calcium intake.

When does calcium begin to 'reduce'?

Repair and renewal of our bones is a constant process whether we are asleep or awake. Adults reach peak bone mass in their late twenties, after this point, the bone mass has a tendency to reduce gradually but steadily with age.

What is the significance of calcium and Vitamin D?

Only about 20-30% of calcium is actually absorbed from the diet, while the rest is naturally excreted. Vitamin D is an essential aid to calcium absorption.

Vitamin A - necessary for proper vision at night. Needed for correct bone development and growth.

Vitamin D - helps maintain strong and healthy bones by improving the body's ability to absorb calcium.

Vitamin E - antioxidant: helps prevent oxidation of Vitamin A and Increases its effectiveness. Needed for the health of the heart.

Vitamin C - antioxidant - helps white blood cells fight infection. Needed for healthy skin. Helps the body absorb iron from non-meat sources.

Magnesium - central to energy release and the functioning of the nerves and muscles, plays a role in bone structure.

Zinc - needed for healthy reproductive and immune systems. Also required for tissue repair and renewal.

Copper - component (with zinc and manganese) of an antioxidant enzyme system. Needed for melanin formation and iron metabolism.

Manganese - component (with zinc and copper) of an antioxidant enzyme system. Needed for healthy bones and nervous system.

Betaine HCL and Glutamic Acid HCL - excellent forms of Hydrochloric acid -enzymes which assist in the break down and digestion of foods in the stomach (such as fibrous meat).

Horsetail - also known as Equisetum, a herb that is rich in silicon, a trace mineral recognised as contributing to proper bone development.
