Super Slimming Weight Loss Tea Causes a Stir! Yes, it’s really true folks.... an ancient Chinese Lotus Leaf tea or Yo Chi Tea as it is known, is becoming a global sensation! You see, this is simply no ordinary tea; far from it in fact, this is an amazing revolutionary tea blend which, because of its ancient Chinese herbal properties, is helping people everywhere to shed excess weight quickly, naturally and safely, simply by drinking two cups of it every day. Weight loss and detox could not be any easier than this, ever! Already, everyone wants to get their hands on this natural miracle worker and let’s face it why wouldn’t they? Already, J-Lo is singing its praises (sorry, we couldn’t resist that little pun!), blissfully sipping it till her heart’s content as she marvels at its ben-

efits in terms of weight loss. Oprah too is a firm believer in it so if it is good enough for two of the world’s biggest showbiz celebs, we are pretty sure it is more than just a little bit good! The good news? Yo Chi is available in Ireland, exclusive to Therapie Clinic. Clinics have reported waiting list around the country as Therapie have been struggling to meet the demand for tea both in store and online with many customers eager to aid new year weight loss using a more holistic approach. Commenting on its arrival at Therapie Clinic, Manager Sarah Cagney said: “The response to Yo Chi Tea so far has been fantastic, it’s flying off the shelves! The great thing about Yo Chi Tea is it’s 100% natural, and has been proven to be effective in

aiding weight loss and detox in a easy, safe way” The blend contains Lotus Leaf, Oolong green tea and number of other ancient Chinese herbs, all of which have been specially selected because of their proven natural ability to purify and cleanse the body, and to essentially act as a nuisance in stopping the body from storing up food as excess weight, and burn excess fat which is stored in the body! Drinking Yo Chi weight loss tea can help to increase weight loss by up to 50%! Yo Chi Tea is exclusively available from Therapie Clinic nationwide, including Barronstrand Street in Waterford. Simply call them direct on 051 870 910 to order or ﬁnd out more on www.yochitea.com.

It is a new option in prenatal screening for Down syndrome (trisomy 21) and other common chromosomal conditions (trisomies 18 and 13) The pregnancy is not put at risk of miscarriage. The test identiďŹ es in singleton pregnancies more than 99% of fetuses with trisomy 21, 98% of fetuses with trisomy 18, and 80% of fetuses with trisomy 13. FTS (First Trimester screening) test helps you decide whether the chances that your baby may have a chromosomal problem is high enough to warrant having an invasive test, such as CVS or amnio. The FTS test includes: Your age Nuchal Translucency (amount of ďŹ&#x201A;uid behind the neck of the fetus on ultrasound) Presence or absence of any physical abnormalities on ultrasound Level of two proteins (free beta hCG & PAPP-A) in your blood. By combining this information, the FTS test can identify about 9 out of 10 pregnancies (90%) in which the baby has Down syndrome. This is more accurate than either the ultra-

sound part or the blood part of the test done on their own. The Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Health Group has been providing comprehensive pregnancy and gynaecology care to the women of Ireland for the past 8 years. The expert team of Obstetrician, Gynaecologists and Midwives are delighted to deliver individual care to our patients including antenatal, delivery and a full range of womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s health care packages. The chances of Down syndrome will then be discussed with you. Only you can decide if you wish to have an invasive diagnostic test based on this risk. If the thickness of the back of the babyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s neck is quite big other problems may be present. These are very rare but include heart problems. This special First Trimester Screening scan also provides other very useful information: Accurate dating of the pregnancy Fetal heart rate Number of fetuses present and, if twins, whether they are identical or not Detects obvious fetal abnormalities For further queries please do not hesitate to contact us on 056-7795302.

Pre-Conceive combined with nutritional advice improves the levels of key fertility and nutritional parameters • Hopes are high after a pilot study into pre-Conceive, an Irish owned and produced nutritional supplement, showed improvements in key fertility parameters for both men and women. Talks are already underway to prove these findings in more, extensive studies. MORE than eight out of 10 Irish men showed improvements in their sperm motility and also reduced cellular damage to their sperm. The clinical study is Europe’s first ever examination of a nutritional supplement and the effect on both male and female fertility parameters. Progressive motility, which measures sperm cells swimming in the right direction, was greatly improved and reduced cellular damage to sperm cells was also noticed, the new study findings show. The 90 day clinical study into pre-Conceive, incorporating a healthier diet and lifestyle, provided optimistic results for the 20 infertile Irish couples who took part. The results, after careful independent analysis, indicates better fertility rates in men and women, boasting improvements in DNA and motility, to name but a few. According to independent medical expert, Dr David Smallbone. “This new study shows that pre-Conceive combined with nutritional and lifestyle advice improves the environment for healthy sperm cell and egg development”. “Though a larger study is required to validate if preConceive can improve overall fertility in patients,” the past President of the Food & Health Section of the Royal Society of Medicine (UK) added. Wexford-based nutritional supplement manufacturers, Pillar Healthcare, worked with fertility specialists, ReproMed Ireland, on the ground-breaking study. It took 3 months and involved 20 Irish couples scattered across the country who have been unable to conceive. Each couple was exclusively selected by ReproMed Ireland who charted their pre-study health, monitored them over the 90 days and conducted the final tests. Independent analysis of the findings shows: • sperm cells progressive motility (swimming straight) improved in 85% of men; • total mobility (swimming in any direction) improved in 79% of men and overall sperm count improved in 71% • DNA damage was reduced by 81% in the male samples tested • SOD/antioxidant levels improved in 50% of male samples, 60% of females • Glutathione Peroxidase, a key indicator of egg and sperm quality, improved in 82% of male and 60% of female samples • Vitamin D levels improved in over 85% of males, 82% of females The independent study was overseen by ReproMed Director, Declan Keane and his team. Commenting on the results, Declan Keane said: “ The examination of pre-Conceive in male and female fertility was very appealing to us. Any concept that can improve the health of our patients has to be examined. The results themselves, are exciting and intriguing. The study indicates that pre-Conceive can support and improve key fertility parameters. This being said, a larger study is required to validate these findings and it is good to see Pillar advancing on this. ReproMed entered into research with Pillar HC to investigate the benefit of nutritional supplementation to increase couples natural fertility potential which should improve their natural conception rates. We are happy that a number of core fertility parameters were positively affected by pre-Conceive.” Pillar Healthcare says over 70 Irish couples who have taken pre-Conceive over the last year have contacted

them to confirm they have gone on to conceive. Pillar Healthcare is already making waves at home and its market share continues to grow across the UK. Company MD Mark Whitney is the winner of Ireland’s Best Young Entrepreneur 2014; pre-Conceive was nominated for Best New Product by CAM magazine and pre-Conceive was also nominated for Best New Product by Irish Pharmacy News’ Awards. Mark Whitney believes that the clinically tailored and fully researched supplement can make a vital difference to both men and women. “We were privileged to present these findings to the Association of Clinical Embryologists in Birmingham. It was a great honour to have our results presented in front of such esteemed healthcare and fertility experts. The results are very encouraging for pre-Conceive but this is only the beginning. We plan to conduct further research in the coming months. The study shows that our therapeutic formula can support men and women trying to conceive. Hopefully, it will continue to do just that. We have already shared our fertility dietary tips online on our own site, www.pillarhealthcare.ie” pre-Conceive is available through pharmacies, health food stores and online. Pillar recommends that couples follow a minimum 90-day programme. Each box contains one month’s supply, containing 30 sachets and the highest strength fish oil on the market. (90 capsules / 3per day). Each 30 day supply costs €170. “pre-Conceive has been designed for anyone planning to conceive. It is ideal for the couple just beginning their journey as it can lay down all the groundwork for the male to produce ‘strong sperm’, the expectant mum to develop a healthier egg and positively influence the baby’s health”. “pre-Conceive is also recommended by our partners in this study, ReproMed for any couple who are ‘sub-fertile’ or having difficulty in conceiving. pre-Conceive can be used in conjunction with any assisted reproduction attempts and has been used successfully in conjunction with IUI, IVF and even ICSI,” Mark Whitney concluded. “In conclusion, I believe the report favourably shows that providing adequate nutritional materials can and does influence the body systems. It becomes apparent that important systems, such as the endocrine system, can be affected by correct nutrition but it needs time and six months is not an unreasonable amount of time, especially when several years of nutritional abuse lie behind the problem. Unless the nutritional requirements of the body are specifically catered for, it is highly unlikely that full health can be expected. pre-Conceive consciously provides those specific nutritional needs for full fertility health to be achieved. It may be that, in most cases, very little else is required - except time. It is important that when fertilisation ensues, that the nutritional support is maintained for the full potential development of the foetus.”

a larger study is required to validate if pre-Conceive can improve overall fertility in patients.” Individual Statistics from the Study: Men: 85% of men improved their Progressive Motility 79% of men improved their Total Motility 71% of men improved their Overall Sperm Count 81% of men showed improvements in the DNA of their sperm cells 1 in 2 men improved their antioxidant marker Superoxide Dismutase (Protects Sperm Cells) 82% of men improved the antioxidant marker Glutathione Peroxidase (Associated with sperm count, mobility and viability) 84.6% of men had improved Vitamin D3 levels 71.4% of men improved their Folate levels 79.% of men improved their B12 levels

Lead Researchers Conclusion:

Female: 60% of women improved in the antioxidant marker Superoxide Dismutase (Protects follicle and egg quality) Glutathione Peroxidase: 60% of women improved the antioxidant marker Glutathione Peroxidase (Improves fertilisation and conception rates) D3: 82% of women improved their Vitamin D3 levels Folate: 45% of women had improved Folate levels B12: 82% of women had improved B12 levels 71.43% of women had improved AMH levels

About fertility The use of assisted reproductive technology is increasing in

“The Anti-Mullerian Hormone is a general indicator of the state of ovarian reserve in women. It appears that many women in the group were below, or close to, the lower threshold levels. It appears to be very much age related and very difficult to accurately quantify. It appears that 71.43% of women had an improvement in their levels over the period.”

Ireland. The number of babies born as a result of in vitro fertilisation (IVF) has more than doubled from 135 in 2000 to 301 in 2005. According to the Irish Times, there are 26 fertility clinics in Ireland and in 2011, IVF was said to be responsible for 3,000 children were born in Irish fertility clinics. The European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE) highlighted that the prevalence of infertility is increasing across the developed world. The main reasons for this is the trend for putting off pregnancy until later in life, an increase in obesity and the higher rate of sexually transmitted infections (ESHRE, 2008). Doctors predict that these health and social changes could lead to a rapid increase in demand for fertility treatment in the coming years. The average age of women in Ireland having their first child is 30.6, which is higher than in the UK (28.7) and the EU average (29.6). The level of obesity in young women has been increasing, which leads to increased rates of anovulation and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), as well as poorer response to fertility treatment. The use of ART is increasing. The most recent data from the USA shows that 1.2% of all infants born in the United States are as a result of ART .4.2% in Denmark. According to a survey commissioned by the UK Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA), infertility is the single biggest reason for women aged 20-45 going to see their GP, apart from pregnancy itself. For between 15% and 30% of couples no reason can be found for their fertility problem (The Practice Committee of the American Society for Reproductive Medicine).

2B;NĂ&#x152;MĂ&#x2014;IHĂ&#x2014;NB?Ă&#x2014;G?HO QUICK BEANY ENCHILADAS This money-saving gem takes just a few minutesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; effort and beats any ready meal. Try the bean mixture as an easy vegetarian chilli served with rice. INGREDIENTS 1 tbspÂ sunflower oil, plus extra for greasing, 100g/3Â˝oz frozen choppedÂ onionÂ (or 1 mediumÂ onion, peeled and roughly chopped), 100g/3Â˝oz mixed frozenÂ peppersÂ (or 1 yellowÂ pepper, de-seeded and sliced), 1 x 400g tinÂ chopped tomatoes, 1 x 400g tin redÂ kidney beansÂ in chilli sauce, 1 tbsp freshly squeezed lime orÂ lemon juice, 3 heaped tbsp choppedÂ fresh coriander, plus extra to garnish, 4 x 40g/1Â˝oz

ready-madeÂ flour tortillas, 75g/2Â˝oz matureÂ cheddar, coarsely grated, saltÂ and freshly groundÂ black pepper METHOD Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan over a medium heat. Add the onion and peppers and fry for 4-5 minutes, or until softened and beginning to turn golden-brown. Stir in the chopped tomatoes and kidney beans. Bring the mixture to the boil, then reduce the heat until the mixture is simmering. Simmer gently for 12-15 minutes, or until the sauce is thick and glossy. Remove the pan from the heat, then stir in the lime juice (or lemon juice) and coriander. Season, to taste, with salt and

plenty of freshly ground black pepper. Preheat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6. Brush the insides of a shallow ovenproof dish all over with a little oil. Place one of the flour tortillas in the dish and spoon one-quarter of the bean mixture into the centre. Roll up the tortilla and push it to one side of the dish. Repeat the process with the remaining flour tortillas and bean mixture, lining the rolled tortillas up against each other. Sprinkle the enchiladas with the grated cheese and bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and turned golden-brown. Just before serving, garnish the enchiladas with fresh coriander. To serve, divide the enchiladas equally among the serving plates. Serve with a mixed green salad.

CROSSWORDS You may feel your world will soon be bathed in sunlight. You could experience a high - especially through to Wednesday: though after that a little disquiet is likely. You might feel comfortable about risk taking early in the week, but, by Friday wish to put the brakes on. You could be quite taken by surprise by developments early this week - and in a good way. This could be related to home improvement or to plans for a trip that is unexpected. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s likely to be Thursday before you stabilise to the extent of being able to analyse what all this really means. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s little doubt that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re being challenged to embrace new worlds. Early this week others could be singling you out as being particularly special and gifted. Gemini value is increasing, but however quickly you think you are reacting, major developments mid-month could yet be challenging. Those of your sign are prone to worry - or at least show obvious concern even when things are going well. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s probable that you - and a close colleague - will be in the spotlight and that your contribution to a success story will be remarked on. You might need extra emotional support over the weekend. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s possibility of experiencing a real â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;highâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; midweek. This wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t necessarily be followed by a low but it might be as well to be prepared to deal with the fall-out from intense activity and excitement. Those involved in the field of education could experience this most acutely. A series of what traditional textbooks would term positive aspects promises much for the early part of this week. Breakthroughs are likely as are curious and positive alliances. You could benefit: both at the financial level and through engagement with consultant or experts â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;passing throughâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;.

Friends and colleagues have exciting plans and you could be SO affected. At home ideas as to how to improve conditions may leave you agitated - but in a nice way. Before the weekend showing you are in control, can prune costs where necessary and have clear vision will surely be necessary. It might be as well to brace yourself and be ready for drama. A sequence of aspects suggests fast pace developments that demand near instant decision making. This need not be a bad thing but could be disquieting in that you are given little time to process information before each crisis unfolds. News involving people and places far away is probable (though a twist on this would involve higher education or legal activities). Discussion as to what is â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;rightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; or fair or is financially viable will surely dominate. A strong possibility is that it will be developments in a partnerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s career that fuels excitement. First hold the thought that a planetary â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;hand grenadeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; could be thrown midmonth and that protecting your position before this arrives would be wise. True, there may be much for you to be excited about. There might even be something to celebrate. This week you could feel a blast of excitement: as though fresh air were at last blowing in. Plans could be made - and might even involve a long distance trip. Relationship-wise - and at both at home and work - the next few days promise a wild ride. It could be all change - for the better hopefully - for those of your sign. This could be financial. Of course it would be wise not to count all chickens until they are hatched. Even so, by the weekend you could feel empowered. This might, in part, be due to renewed contact with a team with whom you have long association.
