More sex and grapefruit to keep you young?
Getting Enough Sleep?
Spermidine - a simple molecule found in large quantities in human sperm and grapefruit - is known to be necessary for cell growth, and as cells age their level of spermidine is known to fall. Now, Frank Madeo from the University of Graz, Austria and his colleagues have shown that feeding certain organisms with the Spermidine increases their lifespan. Richard Faragher, an expert on cellular ageing at the University of Brighton, UK says that the new work is interesting because it adds to the growing body of data suggesting that ageing is caused by a general failure of recycling. Spermidine is a natural compound which probably has no side effects. Humans are exposed to spermidine in quite high concentrations during sexual intercourse and grapefruit contains high concentrations too People could try to stay young by eating a lot of grapefruit and having a lot of sex - it might not work but I don’t think it would do much harm!
Did you know that not getting enough sleep interferes with your ability to learn and absorb information especially when taking exams. Lack of sleep affects our appetite which can make us crave carbohydrates and cause weight gain. So go to bed early!
Obesogens Obesity is rising steadily around the world, now evidence suggests that diet and activity levels are not solely to blame. The idea that chemicals in the environment could be contributing to the obesity epidemic is often strongly linked with exposure to risk factors during foetal and infant development. There are probably between 15 and 20 chemicals that have been shown to cause weight gain. Pesticides in food and water, have been linked to increased weight gain in children and insulin resistance in rodents as has monosodium glutamate found in Chinese food. Most known or suspected obesogens are hormone disruptors, babies born to smoking mothers are frequently underweight, but these same infants tend to make up for it by putting on more weight during infancy and childhood. Another widespread obesogen is the chemical PFOA. Practically everyone in the USA has it in their blood, children have higher levels than adults because they crawl on carpets, on furniture and put things in their mouths. PFOA is used for reduction of friction, so it is also used in nonstick cookware, Gore-Tex waterproof clothing, Scotchgard stain repellent on carpeting, mattresses, and microwavable food items. So, it’s back to eating organic food, filtering your water and minimising plastic and household chemicals in your life. 4

Beetroot Blood Pressure A recent study in the British Journal of Nutrition tells us that drinking beetroot juice can lower blood pressure in just three hours. This is just another great use for beetroot as we already know that it puts energy into the cells and lets your muscles work harder for longer. It also has anti-aging properties and is a great liver cleanser. So get drinking - juice it, buy it in a bottle or if you hate the taste or the mess take the freeze dried beetroot pills.
The W-Plan Diet You already knew this of course! Scientists have found out that drinking a glass of red wine can prevent weight gain! An enzyme called Piceatannol in the wine blocks fat cell formation. It is also thought to protect the body from heart and neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s and Huntingdon’s and cancer.

Multi Vitamins and the Brain Australian researchers revealed that taking daily multivitamins significantly improved people’s ability to remember information. The memory improvements tended to be better the greater the number of nutrients in the multivitamin. Other positive effects included faster mathematical processing), better visual perception and mental speed. The investigators are uncertain exactly how multivitamins improve immediate recall memory, but they proposed a couple of ideas. First, the B vitamins in the multivitamin may lower high levels of homocysteine, a compound associated with heart disease and cognitive decline. Second, they suggest that the antioxidants within the multivitamin may help counteract age-associated cell damage and Alzheimer’s disease.
Chocolate Eaters are Skinnier! Yes, there is more good news – you can eat chocolate without any guilt. A study of 1,000 people found that those who ate chocolate a few times a week were, on average, slimmer than those who only ate it occasionally. So enjoy, but only eat very dark, good quality chocolate and not the whole box/bar at once!
Are You a ‘Redhead’? If so you might be interested to know that research in the USA has found evidence that having pale skin and red hair could make you more sensitive to pain. Scientists at Southampton University are working on finding out if redheads need more anaesthetic than the general population. They are currently looking for volunteers!
Women’s Cosmetics Make Breast Cancer More Aggressive And Fatal Cadmium is found not only in make-up and cosmetics but also potatoes, wheat, bread, water and air, contaminated by agricultural fertilizers. It plays a key role in the development of aggressive – and often fatal – breast cancer, by mimicking estrogen and disrupting hormone activity. Long-term exposure to Cadmium helps the cancer spread by making it more aggressive. Time to eat more organic vegetables and use chemical free cosmetics.

Please visit healthmonthly.co.uk for thousands more products - from skin care to pet care at great prices. Everyone loves the feel of warm sun on their skin - nothing beats it after a cold Winter and rainy Spring, but you must be careful to make sure your skin is well-protected. We all like the look of a tan but don’t want the damage that goes with it, so a lot of people get their tan from a bottle and follow these tips to keep my skin fresh and safe: Make sure you’re wearing enough sun cream. An amount the size of a fifty pence piece will not cover your body. An average woman needs a shot glass full of sunscreen for full coverage. One bottle should only last you four to six full-body applications - if you live outdoors in the summer, be prepared to buy a couple bottles each month. Sun cream ingredients break down over time so check the expiration date on the bottle and throw away anything old. You won’t get full coverage from an expired product, so you could burn when using one. SPF15 in a foundation or tinted moisturiser is not enough to protect you when lounging at the beach. Those products are only perfect for day-to-day activities like work or shopping. Pick the right lotion for your activity. If you’re sailing or swimming, apply a waterproof lotion, they are effective for about 80 minutes. Water-resistant formulas that last 40 minutes are good for light sports or playing with the kids by the pool. Some skincare products can make your skin extra sensitive to the sun, which could lead to burning. Avoid those skincare products that contain retinol and vitamin C, scrub-type exfoliants and fragrances. 6

Sun junkies be warned:
Your skin produces a suntan as protection against damage, the immediate signs of sun damage are tanning and sunburn - which is your skin’s last resort when it comes to forcing you out of the sun.

Make sure you cover up with a sun hat, cool shades and tightly woven clothing or UV protective wear. 2. Plan your day – Seek shade at peak times between 11am and 3pm. Rest under a parasol or picnic under trees. Enjoy activities in the early morning or early evening when the UV radiation is lower. 3. Use a UVA/UVB sun cream, use it correctly and always remember to reapply it often. Even the best sun creams won’t work as well if you don’t use enough. 4. Follow product warnings, children under 6 months should not be out in the sun, their skin is not yet protected by melanin. If this is unavoidable then invest in a pram cover, and UV clothing, most manufacturers advise against using sun cream, consult your doctor if you want more information.

Sun Care & Travel
- a guide to healthy travelling So you’ve booked the holiday, excitement is building and the summer clothes are out of storage. What about the actual travelling? How can you travel without getting ill? Who needs a cold, a cough, Deep Vain Thrombosis or sleepless nights on holiday, you are meant to be resting, recuperating and enjoying yourself! If you are flying you may need a blood thinner, like a baby aspirin or the juice of 4 lemons which would be kinder on both your stomach and your liver. If it’s a long flight over 2 hours – wear flight socks. They may be ugly, but you can wear them under trousers or long skirts and they might just save your life from a DVT. Are you susceptible to sea or motion sickness? Ginger tablets work, they have no side effects and they really help, without the drowsy feeling that you can get with drugs - you can also use essential oils like Arkopharma Traveller.
On low cost flights take a travel pillow – they just make your journey so much more comfortable when you have somewhere to put your head. Better than ending up on your neighbour’s shoulder, especially if they are a stranger! If it’s a long flight add an eye mask to the pillow. Jet lag studies of airline personnel and long distance travellers found that taking a Melatonin supplement relieved jet lag symptoms. This was true regardless of whether they were flying east or west. However, although I would always advocate taking Melatonin 1mg for jet leg when travelling across time zones (take it when you are about to go to bed at your destination) there are so many other uses for it that you need to know about. Even if you work unsociable hours like night shifts and sleep by day, Melatonin can help your body to overcome any disorientation and reestablish a normal sleep pattern.
By the time we reach 65 we are barely making any Melatonin at all. So the older you are the more you need to supplement. This is why a lot of elderly people cannot sleep

Sun Care & travel Do you work in a high EMF (electromagnetic stress) area with WIFI zinging off the walls? Is your computer rooter box on 24/7? Do you struggle to get any sunlight in the winter? Answer yes to any of these questions and you are probably Melatonin deficient. If you remember back to when you were a teenager and you would sleep through everything, even the TV, the doorbell, your mum vacuuming round your bed, you never woke up, you never woke up because at that young age, you were making huge amounts of Melatonin. It is a hormone that keeps you asleep. As we age, we produce less Melatonin and deficiencies can lead to insomnia. By the time we reach 65 we are barely making any Melatonin at all. So the older you are the more you need to supplement. This is why a lot of elderly people cannot sleep? They go to sleep with no problem, but by 3am they are wide awake and up making a cup of tea as a secretion of Melatonin peaks in the middle of the night.
What else does Melatonin do for us? Sleep regenerate us, it heals and repairs, we need to have that Melatonin boost every night and is one of the most important immune enhancing substances in the world. It protects our body and brain cells against genetic damage and is a mood hormone. Lack of Melatonin is associated with depression, lethargy,
agitation and many psychiatric disturbances. Our body’s produces more Melatonin in a completely dark room than in a dimly lit one so that mobile phone blinking at you all night will not help your ageing process, nor will the TV or computer on standby! EMFs, WIFI and power lines disrupt the nighttime production of Melatonin anti-aging – Melatonin’s anti-oxidant properties may help combat illnesses associated with ageing, heart disease and cataracts and can boost immune system function which weakens with age. This has been shown to be as much as 25% in mice. SAD (seasonal affective disorder) – depression which manifests itself in winter when the sunlight is weaker, can be caused by low Melatonin levels. If you are over 65, start with 3mg just before sleep, if that doesn’t work, double it the next night, up to 30mg - you know if you are taking too much as you feel drowsy next morning, it is self-regulating. If you are younger, start with 1mg before sleep, again if that doesn’t keep you asleep then increase the dose every day until it does. Just watch the drowsy feeling in the morning. Melatonin should keep you asleep for the whole night unless you have other mitigating circumstances like drinking too much liquid before you go to sleep which wakes you up for a pee. Finally, make sure both you and family keep hydrated with good quality water. Enjoy your holiday!

Sun Care & travel Exfoliate Many people credit exfoliating for their super tans. It’s the process of removing dead skin from your body, which exposes a new and healthy layer. A gentle scrubbing with a sponge and exfoliating body scrub before applying sunscreen will make a tan last longer and keep it even. Sun Cream Yes, as contradictory as it may sound, sun cream is an important part of tanning. Sun cream with an SPF of 10-15 is ideal for tanners as it protects skin from dangerous rays and allows the tan to build gradually which prevents sunburns. Take Time A healthy and natural tan takes time to develop. Spending one to two hours a day tanning is enough for most people, and will your tan can build on itself. Avoid sun exposure during peak hours - generally 11am to 2pm. An All Over Tan If you are going for an all over tan, make sure to expose all parts of the body to the sun equally. Lying on your stomach for 45 mins and on your back for 10 mins will make your back much deeper.
Did you know? SPF25 sunscreen offers 96% protection from rays while SPF50 offers 98%. SPF30 sun lotions do not offer twice the protection of SP15. Applied properly, SP15 filters out 93% of UVB rays, while SPF30 filters out 97%. Even the highest SPF100 offers 99% protection against UVB rays. It is far more important to apply sun lotions regularly and liberally.

After Tanning A brief shower after a sun tanning session will help get rid of all the sun cream and re-hydrate the skin. Dry skin is unhealthy and may peel or not maintain the tan very well. Immediately after the shower apply a good moisturiser to keep the skin hydrated and supple. How to Prolong the Tan If you follow the steps above and properly care for your skin, a lasting tan can be achieved with little effort. During the winter months when sunlight is scarce or not an option there are tanning creams that can be used to supplement the natural tan. Keeping your skin healthy and nourished through proper nutrition and hydration is the easiest way to maintain your tan. Visit healthmonthly.co.uk for bottles tanning creams.

Smoked Salmon Rolls
Ingredients: • 200g Smoked Salmon slices • 150g mild goat or mascapone soft cheese • Lemon juice • 1 small pack of fresh dill
Directions: 1. Lay out the smoked salmon slices. 2. Spread the cheese over the fish. 3. Roll the smoked salmon and cheese up to make a long sausage. 4. Place into a freezer-proof container and put into the freezer for 20 minutes to firm up. 5. With a very sharp knife gently cut (using a sawing motion) down the roll at 2cm widths (wiping the knife on paper towel between slices). 6. Put the rolls back into the freezer box and sprinkle with dill. 7. Store in the fridge until you are ready to leave, put in your hand luggage. Smoked salmon is a good food to travel with as its shelf life is longer than unsmoked fish or meat. This recipe is refreshing and easy to eat on the go.
Enjoy!
I have also tried this recipe with carob to make a chocolate cake with really good results, a denser cake, but still yummy! Just add ½ cup carob powder in place of the almond essence (combining with the almond meal and baking powder). 18

First, it can cool the itch and burn of an insect attack. Then the antiseptic and anaesthetic ingredients help to prevent any infection and relieve pain.
Nothing can ruin a holiday quicker than an accident or illness. Away from the comforts of home, unsure where to go for emergency treatment and frustrated by the language barrier, accidents or illnesses abroad can spell disaster for the family fortnight in the sun. As with all family health matters, of course, the key to avoiding holiday horror stories lies in preparation and prevention.
As well as your passport, tickets and currency, there are one or two other essentials you need to remember to help you enjoy a safe, worry-free holiday. Check if children need their own medication or protection from health risks - just ask your doctor. If you are driving, make sure you know exactly what safety equipment you need to carry. Many countries have far stricter rules than the UK on the carriage of first aid kits, warning triangles, spare bulbs and the like. theaa.com or rac.co.uk. Familiarise yourself with all the emergency telephone numbers you might need in the country you are visiting. Emergency numbers for countries in Europe can be found atassistabroad.co.uk/useful-info. php#aa8. Finally, always prepare a first aid kit to take with you so that if accidents happen (as they occasionally do) you’ll have everything you need to prevent a drama turning into a crisis.

Twinlab was created in 1968 when founder David Blechman leveraged his 20 years of expertise in the pharmaceutical industry to develop and market a liquid protein supplement. Working out of his family’s garage, he and his wife named their developing business Twinlab, after the couple’s two sets of twins. Sales soared, and in the 1980s, Twinlab branched out to a broader range of vitamins, minerals, herbs and teas. The Twinlab brand has been the trusted leader for innovative, high performance health and wellness products. In addition to the extensive line of vitamins, minerals and sports nutrition formulas, Twinlab also manufactures and sells other category leaders, including the Metabolife line of diet and energy products.

A FEW TIPS...
Walk into any fitness centre or gym and you will see those dedicated to the world of bodybuilding who are consistent with their workouts, while others show very little improvement in their physique, even if they exercise daily. Is it possible to avoid a similar fate? Yes, but building muscle does take years of dedicated work using proper form and technique while training and excellent nutrition. Thinking you can build muscle overnight is a nice thought but unrealistic. Staying with consistent, proven training methods and a good-quality supplement program is essential to achieve long-term results. Stick to the basic fundamentals and be patient. Eighty-percent of what our physique’s look like is nutrition. Sherry L. Granader, Sports Nutritionist

PRIORITY #1: WHOLE FOODS Whole foods are the most important tool for a bodybuilder to achieve a strong physique and good health. They include protein, fibrous carbohydrates, good fats, vitamins and minerals Substituting supplements for whole foods won’t replace nutrition. PROTEIN SOURCES – chicken breasts (boneless, skinless), turkey breast, salmon, tuna, low-fat cottage cheese, low-fat almond milk, one whole egg with egg whites, flank steak. FIBROUS CARBOHYDRATES – fruits, vegetables and whole grains, apples and oranges, yams and sweet potatoes, oats (steel cut), whole-grain bread and pasta, brown rice, lentils, beans and peas, carrots, broccoli, cauliflower and peppers. GOOD FATS - avocado, flaxseed oil, nuts and nut butters, extravirgin olive oil PRIORITY #2 – SUPPLEMENTS Dietary supplements for bodybuilders are known as functionalfood supplements that provide muscle building nutrients that can take your physique and performance to a whole new level. They are different from the basic vitamin and mineral supplements that support basic health and help prevent diseases that can arise due to nutrient deficiencies. One of the hardest accomplishments for bodybuilders is to eat 5-6 meals every 3 hours that take time to plan, prepare and cook. Preparing whole foods can be challenging to take with you to work, keep fresh and usually require heating before they can be eaten. Here are some meal supplements that can be plugged into a meal any time of day: MEAL REPLACEMENT POWDERS These provide excellent nutrition and are very convenient when you have a shaker cup or thermos. You can add a meal replacement powder to some almond milk in a blender with half a banana or organic berries, ground flaxseeds for fiber and good fats or perhaps some Greek yogurt for a delicious meal in a blender. MEAL REPLACEMENT BARS Meal replacement bars are always good to have on hand as an emergency food in case you get stuck somewhere without any food. They are convenient, easy to transport and must be kept at room temperature. READY-TO-DRINK PROTEIN SHAKES The ready-to-drink shakes require no mixing in a blender, taste great and do not need to be refrigerated making them the ultimate in convenience. However, look for protein shakes in multi-layered packaging materials instead of cans because 90% of proteins found in a canned protein shakes deteriorate due to processing and the metal in the cans leaches into the liquid giving it a “metallic” taste.

How It Works:
Superior Protein: IsoWhey Fuel utilises cross flow ultra filtered Whey Protein Isolate - a pure and nutritionally superior class of protein. Whey Protein stimulates muscle protein anabolism, which maximizes muscle growth that occurs after exercise by enhancing muscle building and lean tissue mass. Each serving of IsoWhey Fuel contains 25g of this fast-absorbing protein and is instantised for easy mixing without a blender. Essential BCAAs: The whey protein isolate used in IsoWhey Fuel naturally provides a full spectrum of muscle building amino acids and is naturally abundant in the branchedchain amino acids leucine, isoleucine and valine. Research shows these essential amino acids cannot be made by the body and are rapidly oxidized during exercise, so supplemental BCAAs can play a key role in lean muscle growth and recovery.

Words by Sherry L. Granader Sports Nutritionist
Achieving optimum health and vitality is a process. It takes time, commitment and little “victories� along the way that make it all worthwhile. Changing the body happens in little progressions and each victory, no matter how small, gives you confidence to keep on keeping on and meet the next challenge. If you want to achieve wellness and weight loss, you must do 3 things: eat well, strength-train and do aerobic exercise. You cannot separate the three – all must be a part of your regimen. Exercise can provide a powerful incentive to eat well so you have the energy to get through your workouts. Good nutrition will give you the stamina and strength to perform each workout properly plus exercise keeps your metabolism in high gear. Metabolism is the rate at which you burn calories and is critical for maintaining a healthy weight. Everybody burns calories at their own individual way but there are some things you can do so it burns at its highest rate most of the day. Your metabolism changes throughout the day, it is slowest at night before going to bed but you still burn calories to breathe, digest your food and keep your heart beating.

Eat mini-meals every 3 hours – that consist of good quality protein and fibrous carbohydrates like vegetables. Add some good fats like nuts, olive oil or avocado that will keep you full and energised. Schedule exercise – whether it is strength training or cardiovascular work, your metabolism will increase and will continue to increase in direct proportion to the length and intensity of your workout. Plus the boost in metabolism lasts for hours after you step off that treadmill or put down those hand weights. Water, water, water – water is necessary for every process in the body including good health. If you become dehydrated, the body cannot perform properly and goes in search of water, signaling you to eat more. Who needs that? It’s called ‘artificial hunger’ and causes your digestive system to slow down making it difficult to get the nutrients it needs. It can actually trigger unnecessary eating to make up for the shortfall. Drinking enough water can keep your body running smoothly, keep you full and curb your appetite. Cardiovascular exercise – shoot for a minimum of 40 minutes of aerobic exercise that will increase your heart rate and breathing. It will improve your body’s heart, lungs and arteries, as they will be able to deliver more oxygen to the working muscles. It will also help lower cholesterol naturally and reduce your risk of heart disease.
Strength train – the more muscle you have, the more calories you will burn just sitting here reading this article. It will also help slow down the aging process by preventing muscle loss and bone loss. Strength training will allow you to do more aerobic exercise at a higher level and ultimately burn more calories. It is all about calories-in versus calories-out however you can increase your metabolism by exercising effectively and making better food choices at meal times. Boosting your metabolism is the first step in helping it run efficiently so you get the results, burn calories and lose weight.
If you want to achieve wellness and weight loss, you must do 3 things: eat well, strength-train and do aerobic exercise.

Whey protein isolates to boost the overall level of protein so these delicious shakes contain more protein per portion than many leading sports brands, and at a fraction of the price! In fact it is the quality of the whey used in sports protein shakes that largely determines the taste and texture of the product. Lamberts Protein shakes nearly always out perform other protein drinks in taste trials because they only use premium quality ingredients. That’s why their protein shakes aren’t ‘slimy’ in texture, and why they don’t have to make them excessively sweet (a trick often used to mask unpleasant flavours of poor quality whey). RRP £23.95

Creatine is one of the most widely used sports supplements and there is now official recognition, based on many studies carried out on this fascinating material, that it plays an important role in building muscle. Of course it will only do this if it is included as part of a training regime designed to build muscle! Other studies indicate that for some people, creatine may help to delay muscle fatigue. Creatine is concentrated in muscle tissue including the heart, where it’s involved in the production of ATP, the source of energy that powers muscle contraction. Our bodies can make creatine, and we also obtain it from eating meat and fish. Creatine supplements are useful for providing a big dose of creatine when our bodies need it most, and this powdered form is useful for stirring in to drinks and shakes.

A lot of people think they’re overweight even though they aren’t. Just because you don’t measure up to a supermodel, doesn’t mean you’re bigger than you should be! In fact everybody should have some body fat. The average man should expect his body fat to be 10 to 18 per cent of his bodyweight. The figure for women is higher, in fact 18 to 25 per cent of a woman’s bodyweight should be fat. BMI stands for body mass index. It is a number derived from a person’s weight and height that indicates whether the person falls in an underweight, healthy, overweight or obese category. Because BMI does not take muscle mass into consideration, it is merely an estimate of body fatness. You can use a very simple formula to estimate your BMI if you are 20 years of age or older (BMI for children and teens is calculated differently). STEP 1: Weight yourself on a reliable scale. Record your weight in pounds. STEP 2: Measure yourself to find your height. Record this number in inches. Multiply this number by itself (height squared). STEP 3: Divide your weight by your height squared (the number you got in Step 2). STEP 4: Multiply this number by 703 for your BMI. STEP 5: Analysis of your results: A BMI of 18.5 to 25 falls in the normal or healthy range. A number below this indicates you are underweight. A number above 25 indicates overweight (however, many healthy athletes fall in the “overweight” category due to their relatively large muscle mass), and a number above 30 indicates you might be obese. 36

BRÖÖ
BRÖÖ was born from a dog bite. Seriously! The day before Brad and Sarah were to move to Asheville, a stray dog bit Brad while Brad tried to stop it from attacking his daughter. After two weeks in the hospital, and a month on intravenous antibiotics, Brad finally started listening to Sarah about how he had to take better care of his health. Brad agreed to eat healthy food, but, when Sarah brought home natural shampoos, he started pulling his hair out. Where was the lather? Where was the de-tangling? Where was the fun? In desperation, he called his mom, and told her his sorrowful tale of natural hair despair. Her response? Beer! Not to drown his sorrows. Rather, to brew his do’! Back in college in the 50’s, his mom and all her friends had poured beer on their hair for natural body and shine. But, when Brad told Sarah about this malted miracle, she wrinkled her nose, saying, “I don’t want to smell like a fraternity house on Sunday morning.” Sarah mentioned this hopped-up, hair-brained idea to her mother, who promptly informed her that while in medical school in the Philippines back in the 50’s, she too had practiced the fine art of “beer hair.” Slowly, Sarah began to open her mind (while Brad opened a beer). With the help of both of their mothers, Brad convinced Sarah to take a bottle of local, handcrafted beer from Asheville into the shower. Suddenly, a blast of brilliant white light shot out from under the bathroom door! Sarah emerged with shiny, silky, flouncy, tresses. She was a convert to “beer hair.” Soon, the Pearsall shower looked like a bar, with empty bottles of every Asheville- brewed beer piled in the corners. Lushes? But, sadly, the daily dose of “beer hair” was cold. Knowing Sarah’s prior preference for salon-grade products, Brad remarked that if they could somehow magically blend handcrafted beer into salonlevel shampoo, they’d have exactly what they wanted. And that’s what started their two-year quest to BRÖÖ their DO. They chose the name BRÖÖ for this holy grail; a shampoo made with ale and, without a bit of chemistry knowledge between them, the journey began, to take beer “from the saloon to the salon!” Two years and over 50 rejected formulas later, Brad and Sarah held 4 ounces of perfection in their hand, in an unmarked laboratory bottle. BRÖÖ was born and the world of natural hair care would never be the same. Thanks for being a part of BRÖÖ! Enjoy Responsibly.

DOUVALLS ORGANIC ARGAN OIL MOISTURISER Size / Quantity 15ml Spray
Argan Oil is a natural, 100% organic, chemical free beauty marvel that really works. Produced from the Argan tree in the semi deserts of Morocco, Argan Oil has been used by Moroccan women for centuries for it’s nutritional and cosmetic benefits. Commonly referred to as “liquid gold” or “The Gold of Morocco”, Argan Oil is an incredibly rich source of Vitamin E and essential fatty acids. It has astonishing healing, conditioning and anti-ageing properties to keep your skin and hair nourished and revitalised and to keep you looking beautiful from head to toe. Argan Oil is not only a “super food” for the skin and hair but for the whole body. Having twice as much Vitamin E as olive oil as well as vital antioxidants and essential fatty acids. Argan Oil plays a major role in a healthy diet and is commonly used in traditional Moroccan recipes. There is much more to The Argan Story than just a pretty face, glowing skin and gorgeous hair. Argan Oil not only helps you look and feel great, it also helps women and the environment. Produced exclusively from the nuts of the Argan tree in the semi-desert region of Morocco, the extraction of the Argan Oil is a labor-intensive process that has been perfected by the women native to southwest Morocco. In 2002, the Moroccan government helped establish female cooperatives to manufacture Argan Oil. These programs provide women of rural Morocco with a steady income, a fair wage, good working conditions, as well as literacy and other education classes. Perhaps most importantly, the co-ops give women a keen sense of empowerment in this traditionally male-dominated society. These programs also help protect the Argan forests’ limited supply of trees. The co-ops are dedicated to responsible harvesting practices and reforestation projects, which along with environmental protection policies, aid in the preservation of the Argan forests...

Recapture the power and vibrancy of your youth with DHEA. New research from the past 3 years proves the effectiveness and safety of this high-impact, natural youth-promoting substance. It begins developing in your cells 8 weeks after conception, but it starts dropping dramatically once you turn 25. However, you don’t really begin to feel the effects of lower dhea levels until your mid-forties. This natural substance is DHEA or dehydroepiandrosterone. DHEA is the most abundant steroid hormone in the human body and is found in every organ system. What makes DHEA important for recapturing your youth is because it is called the mother of all hormones, and is the crucial building block of estrogen and testosterone. Studies show just some of the effects that DHEA can bring: Improves cognitive function, improves energy, decreases cholesterol, regulates bone formation, boosts immunity, improves libido, enhances mood, increases insulin sensitivity, stimulates human growth hormone and regulates thyroid, pituitary, & thymus glands.

BEHIND THE FUNNY NAME of horny goat weed stands a time-tested aphrodisiac that increases libido in men and women, and improves erectile function in men. Known also as Epimedium or Yin Yang Huo, horny goat weed was first described in ancient classical Chinese medicinal texts. Today, horny goat weed holds an important place in Traditional Chinese Medicine and is gaining popularity around the world. Used by practitioners for over 2,000 years, horny goat weed is several species of epimedium, a leafy plant which grows in the wild, most abundantly at higher altitudes. The leaves of the plant contain a variety of flavonoids, polysaccharides, sterols and an alkaloid called magnaflorine. And while the exact way that horny goat weed works remains unknown, the plant has long been employed to restore sexual fire, boost erectile function, allay fatigue and alleviate menopausal discomfort.

YOHIMBINE IS A CHEMICAL that is derived from the bark of the yohimbe tree, a tall evergreen. While the tree is native to Western Africa, supplements containing yohimbine are sold across the world due to the chemical’s wide variety of benefits. Yohimbine is a common ingredient in energy drinks and sports nutrition supplements. Supplements that promise to optimize sexual health and battle erectile dysfunction also contain yohimbine. This is because of yohimbine’s tendency to increase blood flow to extremities - in this case, your genitals. In addition, yohimbine can slightly increase testosterone levels in men. Women can benefit from yohimbine as well, as the chemical can increase feelings of sexual arousal.

THIS IS A SLENDER creeping plant of the Apiaceae family whose botanical name is Centella Asiatica. It is native to the swampy areas of India, Sri Lanka, Madagascar and South Africa but is now grown in the tropical regions of Australia, South America and even South-Eastern United States. It is commonly known as Indian pennywort, spadeleaf and Asian pennywort. The key to use of gotu kola as an aphrodisiac may lie in the herb’s beneficial effect on the circulatory system of the body. An active chemical component in gotu kola known as triterpenoid saponis is known to decrease venous pressure and treat venous insufficiency besides strengthening blood vessels and capillaries. This may contribute to improved extraperipheral circulation in the body which is essential for taking oxygen-rich blood to the sex organs and thus attaining and maintaining erection among men. In this way use of gotu kola may help to boost the male libido and enhance sexual pleasure.

Their formula contains L-arginine, according to recent medical studies by taking just 5g of L-arginine a day can help you achieve a healthier sex life. Nitric oxide is extremely important for erections but declines as you age and this results in weaker and softer erections. One of the best methods of increasing nitric oxide is L-arginine, which is an amino acid. There is much more to this amino acid than meets the eye. It is a well known fact that nitric oxide plays an important role in supplying blood to all the organs in the body. Nitric oxide levels decline for a number of reasons and VirMax DS has been formulated to increase the level of Nitric Oxide in the body.
