Progressive HCP Symbiotic Kit (Pre& Probiotic)

Categories: Allergies, Bloating, Digestive Health, Eczema, New Products!, Probiotics
 

Fall Flyer Until October 21st 2010 Pre and Pro KIT $59.99! Buy 4 and get additional 5 % OFF

Progressive HCP Symbiotic Kit (Pre& Probiotic) has been referred to as the Rolls Royce of Probiotics!  When you have tried just about everything and you are in desperate need of controlling your IBS, eczema and other health problems, it may be time to try Progressive’s HCP Symbiotic Kit with 70 billion good bacteria ready to protect your kingdom.  This wonderful probiotic is here to protect your gut and to host of over 400 Bodily Functions!

 HCP®70 (Human Colonizing Probiotic, 70 Billion Cells) is a full spectrum dairy free probiotic supplement featuring 6 human strains that implant healthy flora throughout the digestive tract. Prebiotics are FOOD for the good bacteria which allow colonization.  This kit addresses: eczema, vitamin production, immune function, weight management, bloating, IBS, poor complexion, flatulence, food allergies, oral and vaginal health. 

 

 

Why is HCP different from other probiotics? 

It is 100% human strains and according to research only human strains will colonize within the GI tract where plant source strains have failed.

How to use the Kit for BEST Results?

In order to prepare the intestinal terrain and establish proper probiotic implantation, the HCP®Synbiotic Kit is designed to be taken for an initial 3 month period. Once a proper intestinal environment has been established HCP®70 can then be taken on its own for ongoing probiotic maintenance. Contains a 30 day supply (60 caps) of both HCP®Supportand HCP®70.

Many of us are well informed about PRO-Biotics, so why Are PRE-Biotics sooo important? 

In order to maximize the impact of a probiotic supplement, you need to begin by preparing the intestinal terrain for proper implantation, colonization and proliferation. HCP®Support contains a family of prebiotics, vegetable concentrates and berry extracts that support probiotic viability while reducing the existing unfriendly bacteria. One of the most helpful analogies is to think of the probiotics as seeds that are ready to be planted, all they need is a proper terrain that is prepared for healthhy growth.  Probiotics (seeds) need water and fertilizers (prebiotics) before hand to ensure that those seeds have a place to grow.

Features of Progressives Prebiotics:

• Multiple Oligosaccharides nourish the intestinal flora
• Cranberry, Elderberry Extracts & Red Wine reduce the adhesion of unfriendly bacteria
• Jerusalem Artichoke protects against yeast
• Colostrum & Lactoferrin inhibit the growth and reproduction of harmful bacteria
• Full colonizing supportHCP

As always, thank you for reading!  This product is in our flyer until October 21st 2010.  If you have more questions regarding the product come on into a location near you, we look forward to helping you with what ever questions you may have.

Barlean’s Omega Swirl Oils

Categories: Brain Health, Joint Health, New Products!, Omega 3's

Barleans Fish, and Vegan Omega Swirl Oils

 

What are Barlean’s Omega Swirls and How are they Different?

Omega Swirls look and taste like a fruit smoothie, yet provides optimal levels of Omega-3 EPA/DHA to bring you vibrant health and energy!

In a clinical study conducted by The Centre for Nutritional Studies, Barlean’s Omega Swirl was found to be 90% more bio-available than standard fish oil, with the total percentage of oil that reached the bloodstream 10-times greater with Omega Swirl than the same dose of fish oil. Because Barlean’s proprietary Swirl technology significantly reduces the size of fish and flax oil molecules, it allows the oil to more efficiently pass through the intestinal wall and into the bloodstream. Theoretically, it could take up to 20 standard fish oil gel caps to equal the amount of Omega-3 from just a two tsp. dose of Omega Swirl!

Alive Health Centre, Morning Sun and Supplements Plus Carry the following Omega Swirls:

Barlean’s Commitment to Sustainable Fishing

Barlean’s has always been committed to sustainable fishing practices. Since 1972, they have been catching local fish using reef netting, a century old Native American way of harvesting salmon. It is the most unique and ecological method of harvesting wild salmon, allowing the release of untargeted species and other marine life without harm. Currently Barlean’s is among only 11 license holders in the world, and considered by Washington State to be a model of sustainable fishing.

When they decided to enter the fish oil market, they made a commitment to bring their local level of responsibility to a global level. Certain species of fish are endangered, and specific oceans are, in fact, over-fished. They are committed to do whatever they can to ensure the health of these ecosystems for generations to come.

Fish Oil

Barlean’s Fresh Catch Fish Oil is sourced from the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Peru, and comes only from small body fish (anchovies and sardines). The crude oil is actually a byproduct of fish meal production, an industry that is highly regulated and has been wellmanaged for more than 50 years. Less than 10% of the crude fish oil is processed and used for human and pet consumption.

Cod Liver Oil

Barlean’s Cod Liver Oil is sourced locally in Norway, from the straits between the Lofoten Islands. Here we fish for the Arctic Cod, which is often confused with the Atlantic Cod, a species that is in decline. Arctic Cod populations, on the other hand, are healthy, and harvesting is managed on a quota system.

Alive and chains have had Barleans for a little while now and they are truly a clean fish oil that has the added benefit of tasting good!  If you have been recommended to take a fish oil, but you always avoid it due to the taste come on in and try a swirl!  As always thank you for reading and we will see you soon at a location near you.

Tired of Unsightly Toes? Try Fungal FREE Nails

Categories: Nail Fungas, New Products!
Fungal Free Nails

 Approximately 30 to 35 million people in the United States have nail fungus.  Nail fungus, while it may not hurt, it looks awful and we often feel uncomfortable wearing certain shoes, or having to expose our feet.  Until now there has not been any real solution for nail fungus at the topical level.  Fungal FREE Nails is an excellent product that will actual penetrate into the nail bed killing the fungus.  Once the old fungal nail grows out, your new healthy nail will grow in!  If you give this product time it delivers.  What are the active ingredients?

 Juglans regia 8x, Sepia 8x, Mucor mucedo 8x, Palmarosa 8x, Malaleuca alternofolia, Camphor, Eucalyptus globulus, Anise, Cinnemonum, Mentha piperatum, Salvia sclarae, Juniper virginus, Mystira fragans, Lavandula latifolia, Terebinthinia oleum, Vitis vinifera.

 Fungal FREE Nails explains while there are similar products out there, it is the penetration that is missing. Fungal Free Nails PENETRATES the nail because it isn’t a water soluble solution. Fungal Free Nails incorporates a naturally occurring, non-toxic, lipid, non-polar, organic solvent that carries with it the necessary lipid soluble fungicidal essential oils to the nail bed in order to kill the fungus that is living, growing, and spreading there.

 Fungal Free Nails has many success stories, it is all natural, no side effects and perfectly safe.  I am actually using it myself, it has been 3 or 4 months now and I see my new nail growing in!  It is very exciting.  Remember it takes patients and diligence; you must do it every day morning and night.  As I say applying Fungal Free Nails has become as important as remembering to brush my teeth!  Also Alice Chung the owner of Alive Health Centre and Chains used it herself and her toe nail is completely fungus free! 

 As always we look forward to assisting you with your health concerns.  Come and see us at a location near you at either, Alive health Centre, Morning Sun or Supplements Plus.  Take care!
