Pregnancy
Recent studies demonstrate that during pregnancy a child competes with the mother for nutrients. A lack of nutrients
therefore can result in health issues for both the mother and child. Pregnant women need approximately 300 extra
calories per day, 65% more protein, 100% more folic acid and vitamin D, 50% more calcium and magnesium, 33%
more vitamin C, 25% more vitamin A, E and zinc, plus additional iron.
Folic acid
Is essential to help regulate embryonic and foetal development of nerve cells, vital for normal growth. The most
crucial time is during the first six weeks of pregnancy.
Deficiencies in folic acid have been linked to neural tube defects that affect the brain and spinal cord. It is important
for all women of child-bearing age to obtain sufficient amounts of folic acid.
Each 'folic acid plus' tablet contains 400microg folic acid, vitamin C and bee pollen. Take folic acid before pregnancy
and then replace it with nature's prenatal during pregnancy.
Nature's prenatal
Is a balanced multiple vitamin and mineral supplement designed to be used during pregnancy and throughout
breast-feeding. Nature's prenatal supplies 17 vitamins and minerals, including folic acid, providing a combination of
nutrients necessary for adequate energy and metabolism. Nutrients in the combination help reduce the risk of brain
and neural tube defects, premature labour and morning sickness. Nature's prenatal boosts the baby's immune
system and helps the development of neurotransmitters and tissue.
Red Raspberry
Possesses astringent qualities. The leaves have been used by women for centuries as a support to the reproductive
system and to ease labour.
Monthly needs - Premenstrual tension
Monthly hormonal fluctuations place unique demands on a woman's body. A delicate interplay of hormones,
orchestrated between the ovaries, adrenal glands, uterus, pituitary and hypothalamus gland influence wellbeing,
mood, energy, blood sugar levels, fertility and immunity.
Causes of imbalance, include stress, over consumption of caffeine, sugar, too few healthy essential fatty acids in the
diet and too much unhealthy dietary fat and salt. Medication including the birth control pill can contribute to nutritional
shortfalls, notably vitamin B6.
For a large number of women, it happens every month like a recurring bad dream - a laundry list of symptoms that
make life very uncomfortable. An imbalance in the oestrogen-to-progesterone ratio is believed to be a root of PMT.
The post common symptoms of premenstrual tension (PMT) include abdominal cramping, mood swings, crying spells,
irritability, tension, anxiety, fatigue, water retention, headaches, acne breakouts, bloating, depression, lower back
pain, nausea, breast tenderness and cravings for sugary foods.
Raspberry & dong quai
This remarkable product is designed to enhance glandular function and normalise hormone imbalances associated
with PMT. Women have also used this product alongside nutri-calm, which is a fast acting and effective de-stressing
formula.
Evening primrose oil is a complimentary product, which can also be used alongside raspberry & dong quai
combination to alleviate PMT symptoms.
Menopause
The word 'menopause' is defined as the point when a woman naturally stops ovulating and menstruation ceases. The
'peri-menopause' is the time when the natural change starts from normal menstruation to the menopause.
During this time, hormonal fluctuations can occur and the change in balance and quantity of these hormones can
cause a variety of symptoms including anxiety, dry skin, fatigue, feelings of bloating, headaches, heart palpitations,
heavy bleeding, hot flushes, insomnia, irritability, decreased libido, vaginal dryness, loss of concentration, mood
swings, night sweats, reduced stamina and weight gain.
After the menopause (post-menopause) the long-term diminished supply of oestrogen increases the likelihood of
cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis.
Hot flushes
Black cohosh with dong quai helps provide relief from 'hot flushes'. This special time released combination of black
cohosh and dong quai gradually releases the beneficial ingredients over a 10 hour period. One tablet in the morning
and one in the evening gives night and day coverage.
'Natural woman'
Thousands of women across the world use five supplements for general support during the peri-menopause,
menopause and post-menopause.
-Skeletal strength is a comprehensive supplement which includes calcium, magnesium and vitamin D to protect the
bones.
-Wild yam & chaste tree effectively supports the glandular and reproductive system during the menopause.
-Black cohosh & licorice combination is a unique formula designed to nourish the adrenal glands and support the
glandular system.
-Flaxseed oil provides effective support to the cardiovascular and glandular systems.

Urinary tract infections
The urinary system filters the blood, regulates the amount of acidity and consistency of body fluids, and eliminates
waste. Urinary tract infections are a common concern with this system, Cranberries have been heralded over the
years for preventing urinary tract infections. Unfortunately, due to the berries bitter taste, cranberry juice drinks are
often high in sugar to make them more palatable, however the sugar content provides additional food for the bacteria
and prolong the infection.
Cranberry & buchu concentrate
Is a highly effective formula designed to prevent and stop urinary tract infections. Cranberries stop the bacteria from
adhering to the walls of the urinary tract and buchu herb, known as a 'woman's best friend', fights bacterial infection
and shrinks inflamed tissues.
Vitality & libido
Damiana & ginseng combination is unique supplement providing numerous herb-based vitamins, minerals and
phytonutrients known to increase energy, boost the emotions, relieve anxiety, relax muscular and nervous tension,
facilitate hormone balance and promote general health and well-being.
Candida
Candida albicans are a type of yeast (single celled fungi) which are always present in genital and intestinal tracts. If
our defences against candida are weakened, this yeast has the chance to spread to other areas in the body. If at the
same time, the foods that the yeast thrives on are in plentiful supply, such as sugar, then an explosion of candida
activity can occur. An over abundance of candida can manifest as vaginitis, thrush, athletes foot, brain fog, muscle
pain, fatigue, allergies plus numerous other symptoms.
Caprylic acid combination
Is a unique supplement designed to fight candida and relieve the symptoms that an overabundance of this yeast in
the body causes. The capsules are enteric-cauted so they are dissolved in the intestinal tract for optimal benefits. In
addition to caprylic acid this combination contains valuable phytonutrients for optimal results.
Bifidophilus is a complimentary product, providing a supply of friendly bacteria that helps keep candida albicans at
bay.
