  1. Ulcerative Colitis: This is an autoimmune disease and figuring out and eliminating the drivers is key to staying in remission. Typical drivers are food intolerances, gut dysbiosis, viral infection, diet and lifestyle. Supplements that can help are L-glutamine, marshmallow, slippery elm, gamma oryzanol for gut healing; probiotics for gut health; turmeric, boswellia and omega 3 fish oils for anti-inflammatory. Customers have benefitted from Natures Plus GI Natra Wellness, NutriAdvanced Nutriflux for gut healing. Good probiotics are Quest TumBiotix Gold, Udos Super 8, Natures Plus Immune Microbiome. Good anti-inflammatories: NutriAdvanced Curcudyn Forte, Viridian Boswellia, UnoCardio+ Fish oils.
  2. Heartburn and acid reflux: Slippery Elm taken before meals protects the stomach lining and oesaphagus while allowing good digestion and absorption. A digestive enzyme can aid digestion. Zinc carnozin helps to tonify the oesaphageal sphincter muscle and support mucus producing cells of the stomach lining that help cover and protect. We love Biocare Slippery Elm Plus, Terranova and Udos Digestive Enzymes, Natures Plus Actizyme and Nutriadvanced Similase.
  3. Chemotherapy: Many natural supplements are not allowed during chemotherapy as they can lessen the impact of the drugs. Medicinal mushrooms are perfectly safe and a lovely adjunct. Our customers have reported less nausea and appetite loss, more energy, less hair loss when taking these. Hifas de Terra Mico Onco range are specifically designed and tested to support people undergoing chemo and radiation therapy for cancer.
  4. Thyroid: Taking kelp is a safe and natural way to support thyroid function. Kelp will provide not just the iodine required but also the other important minerals and certain proteins. Our customers like NutriAdvanced Thyroid Support and Bionutri TyroComplex
  5. Brain & Memory Power: Omega 3 fats from fish are one of the best nutrients to support a healthy brain into late old age. Great for focus and retention in young students as well. Look for a fish oil high in DHA – this is the particular Omega 3 that is good for brain, nerve function. We recommend Uncocardio or Wileys Platinum fish oils. Gingko biloba is a favourite in Chinese medicine and has been used for over 2000 years to support a healthy brain. Aqusol Gingko tea is a safe way to take a daily dose. Supplements such as Viridian Cognitive Complex, Higher Natures Brain Nutrients, and Revive Mastermind are great combination products for memory and focus.
  6. Smell in nose: A bad smell in the nose, from the breath or taste in the mouth could be a sign of silent acid reflux. If that is definitely not the cause, try a saline rinse through the sinus passages to clear out mucus and bacteria.
