Turmeric (Curcuma longa) is a plant native to South India and Indonesia and has been valued in Asia for thousands of years as a spice and medicinal herb. In Ayurvedic medicine, it is used for wound healing and respiratory conditions. Curcumin is a component of turmeric that has been the focus of extensive scientific research for its vast range of therapeutic applications in autoimmune conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn’s disease, and eczema, as well as to improve poststroke outcomes

Coenzyme Q10 is produced by the human body and is necessary for the basic functioning of healthy living cells. CoQ10 is also the vital catalyst in the creation of energy that cells need for life. Without coQ10, the chain of cellular energy is broken and without energy, cellular life ceases. CoQ10 levels decrease with age and are even lower in patients with chronic diseases. Prescription drugs including statins may also lower coQ10 levels, yet they can be increased by supplementing with coQ10.

Cordyceps SAP is a hot water-extracted mushroom used in herbal medicine to support the immune system and as a source of antioxidants. Cordyceps sinensis has traditionally been used for a variety of concerns including treating patients with fatigue, in athletics, for liver, kidney, and respiratory protection, as well as for immune support. The majority of the research focuses on the active ingredients in Cordyceps, including polysaccharides, lipids, cordycepin, and 3‑deoxyadenosine.

Chastetree+ SAP is a synergistic blend of chasteberry, Ginkgo biloba, and vitamin B₆ used to help regulate menstrual cycle concerns. This formulation assists in relieving negative symptoms associated with the menstrual cycle such as irregular menstruation, mood imbalances, breast tenderness, irritability, and menstrual cramping. Symptoms such as hot flashes, memory changes, and insomnia associated with perimenopause and menopause may also be improved with use of Chastetree+ SAP.

Native to North America, cranberries have been used as a medicinal agent for centuries. Cranberries contain proanthocyanidins, which have been shown to inhibit the fimbrial adhesion of bacteria, including Escherichia coli, to the urinary tract epithelium, hence preventing bacterial proliferation and infection. These unique proanthocyanidin compounds, and not acidification of the urine, are suggested to be pivotal in preventing urinary tract infections (UTI).

Chaga SAP is a hot water-extract medicinal mushroom, known by its scientific classification as Inonotus obliquus. Chaga is parasitic on birch and other trees, and the conk presents as a mass of mycelium with the appearance of burnt charcoal, due to large amounts of melanin.

Chaga is nutrient-dense, concentrated with polysaccharides, flavonoids, betulinic acid, polyphenols, minerals, enzymes, and several B vitamins, including pantothenic acid, riboflavin, and niacin. In vitro studies on chaga mushroom extract with immunomodulating, gene-protective, and antiseptic properties.

Candida is a type of yeast commonly found on the skin and in the mouth, va**na, and intestinal tract. It is ubiquitous in our environment and causes health problems in cases where the immune system is weak, leading to Candida overgrowth or candidiasis.

Candida condition is increasing due to the growing population of immunocompromised patients. Candida may commonly occur when individuals are over-prescribed antibiotics, individuals with diabetes, HIV/AIDS, solid tumors or hematological malignancies receiving stem-cell therapy, and transplant recipients, and people undergoing antacid treatment.

Candida SAP contains antifungal and immune-boosting substances to help the body control the growth of Candida in the body and prevent future outbreaks of candidiasis. Used in herbal medicine to help alleviate mild cases of fungal infections. Garlic is traditionally used in herbal medicine to help relieve the symptoms associated with upper respiratory tract infections and catarrhal conditions. Selenium is an antioxidant for the maintenance of good health.

Bone mass and vitamin D synthesis decrease with ageing and inactivity in women and men. Reducing bone loss delays the onset of weakness, thus lowering fracture risk. Peak bone mass is determined by genetics, body weight, weight-bearing activity, and intake of nutrients composing the bone matrix and/or regulating its metabolism. Adequate calcium intake is important to prevent bone resorption and osteoporosis, and higher magnesium intakes have been positively associated with bone mineral density. Vitamin D3 is essential for maintaining calcium levels and increases calcium absorption from the intestine.

Digestive Enzymes SAP is a combination of ox bile, betaine hydrochloride, and pancreatic enzymes. It has been documented that, as we age or are under chronic stress, the production of important digestive enzymes can drop significantly. This can result in symptoms such as abdominal bloating, gas, or a feeling that food isn’t passing through the digestive system effectively, known as functional dyspepsia. Digestive Enzymes SAP may also be helpful for patients with exocrine pancreatic insufficiency or food intolerances, and after gallbladder removal. This formulation contains enzymes that help with the breakdown of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates, and is useful for patients with suboptimal digestive enzyme production..

Melatonin is a hormone (N‑acetyl-5‑methoxytryptamine) produced especially at night in the pineal gland. Its secretion is stimulated by darkness and inhibited by light. Melatonin, an indole, is synthesized from tryptophan via serotonin. The suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN) of the hypothalamus have melatonin receptors and melatonin may have a direct action on SCN to influence circadian (sleep) rhythms. #

L- carnitine is an essential cofactor that is required for the transport of free long-chain fatty acids into the inner mitochondrial matrix where they enter the beta-oxidation pathway for cellular energy production.

There are several forms of carnitine available, yet acetyl-l-carnitine (ALC) is the preferred active form that has the ability to cross the blood-brain barrier and therefore can be helpful in conditions affecting the nervous system. Several studies demonstrate the effectiveness of ALC in improving cognitive performance in patients suffering from Alzheimer’s disease (AD).

ALC has been shown to improve mental fatigue associated with fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome. Unlike the ʟ-carnitine form, it has been suggested to promote cognition.

Acetyl-ʟ-carnitine is synthesized in the body or obtained through dietary sources, in particular red meats. People who eat a vegan/vegetarian diet may be at the risk of a relative deficiency.

NFH ACETYLCARNITINE SAP:

Helps to support cognitive function in the elderly.

Helps reduce fatigue.

Helps optimize cellular energy production (fatty acid metabolism).

Buffered vitamin c and citrus bioflavonoids

Free radicals are molecules which are produced through normal metabolic processes in the body, or by environmental exposures such as smoke, pollution, and radiation.[1] One of the leading causes of cellular breakdown is free radical damage causing oxidative stress and antioxidants are crucial to help protect against these deleterious effects.[1]

Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is a powerful antioxidant and its supplementation is effective in maintaining immune function [3, 4] and healthy skin,[5] in connective tissue formation,[6] and in the development of bones, cartilage, teeth, and gums.[1] In addition, citrus bioflavonoids derived from citrus fruits such as oranges, grapefruits, lemons, and limes are potent antioxidants and in combination with vitamin C can help mitigate oxidative stress.

NFH Ascorbates SAP is designed with a synergistic combination of different buffered mineral salts of ascorbic acid, zinc, selenium, and citrus bioflavonoids that can:

Help improve antioxidants status in the body for optimal health.[1, 2]

Support healthy immune function, improve skin health, and promote development of connective tissue, bones, cartilage, teeth, and gums.(1, 3, 4, 5, 6)

Calcium ᴅ‑Glucarate is a calcium salt of ᴅ‑glucaric acid, which is a naturally occurring substance. Glucaric acid is found in several fruits and vegetables, with its highest concentration being found in cruciferous vegetables, apples, oranges, and grapefruits, and it is also made in small amounts in the human body. ᴅ‑Glucarate is an important substance that assists the body in its quest to detoxify and eliminate various toxins, hormones, and carcinogens from the system. Two of the mechanisms that the body uses to detoxify are conjugation and glucuronidation, by which the body binds water-soluble substances to hormones or carcinogens, making it easier for them to be excreted. The enzyme β‑glucuronidase breaks the bonds formed during the detoxification process, which allows substances to recirculate in the body instead of being excreted. ᴅ‑Glucarate inhibits β‑glucuronidase, therefore encouraging the elimination of the potentially harmful toxins, carcinogens, or hormones.
