Discover the transformative power of Acceleradine Iodine, an advanced liquid iodine supplement designed to support your overall health and well-being. Acceleradine Iodine is packed with bioavailability, meaning it is designed for maximum cell absorption.  Whether it has been suggested you take iodine for your thyroid or seeking an iodine supplement for optimal health, Acceleradine iodine will soon be your new favorite supplement. Comparing Different Types of Iodine Supplements Not all iodine supplements are created equal! Our bodies absorb some forms of iodine better than others. This depends on the source of the iodine and its chemical form in the supplement. Learn about different types of iodine and which ones you should take for optimal results. Iodine Deficiency According to a study by Dr David Brownstein, 96% of the US population is iodine deficient.  Important points about iodine to remember: Our thyroid gland relies on iodine to function.  Our bodies do not produce iodine, so we must obtain it from external sources such as our diet. Toxins, radiation, processed foods, industrial farming practices and global climate change have resulted in declining iodine levels. This is a major concern when we have an organ, the thyroid gland, relying on it for optimal health. Symptoms of Iodine Deficiency Symptoms of iodine deficiency include: Fatigue Weight gain Constipation Depression Brain fog Cold intolerance Dry skin and nails Why Acceleradine Iodine? A 100% bioactive ionic iodine, and programmed with scalar frequency, Acceleradine Iodine is a superior liquid iodine supplement. 2% tincture of pure, natural, singlet, active iodine (I¯) Highly Bioavailable Vigilantly Pure and Radiation Free Iodine Health Benefits Thyroid Function Support Iodine provides essential support to the thyroid gland, a crucial organ for regulating metabolism, fat burn, and weight management. Iodine is a key component in the production of thyroid hormones, helping to maintain a healthy and balanced metabolic rate. Energy Metabolism Iodine is integral to the production of thyroid hormones, which play a vital role in energy metabolism and fat burning.  Immune System Boost Adequate iodine levels are essential for a robust immune system. Iodine contributes to the normal functioning of the immune system, helping your body defend itself against external threats and promoting overall wellness. It helps devitalize foreign pathogens including viruses, bacteria, and parasites. Cognitive Function Iodine is crucial for brain health and cognitive function. Iodine supports the synthesis of neurotransmitters, aiding in mental clarity, focus, and overall cognitive performance. It also detoxes the brain of fluoride, lead and other toxins that cause brain fog. Iodine deficiency is the number one cause of depression. Detoxification Support Iodine plays a role in the detoxification process, helping the body eliminate toxins and maintain a healthy balance.  Cellular Health Iodine is essential for the health of every cell in the body. Iodine supports cellular function, contributing to overall well-being and helping to maintain healthy tissues. Reproductive Health Iodine is crucial to the functioning of the reproductive system. Iodine supports reproductive health in both men and women, playing a role in fertility and overall reproductive well-being. Thyroid Antioxidant Protection Iodine acts as an antioxidant, protecting the thyroid gland and all cells in the body from oxidative stress. This helps to maintain the integrity of the thyroid tissue and supports its optimal function.

BIOptimizers Magnesium Breakthrough $34.95
BIOptimizers Magnesium Breakthrough Oxygen Based Digestive Cleanse Support Best magnesium supplements for sleep Reduce your stress levels and feel relaxed Sleep faster and deeper Boost your immune system Maintain normal heart rhythm Build strong bones Why Magnesium Breakthrough: Magnesium is one of the most important minerals for all aspects of health. It participates in over 600 different biochemical reactions[1] in your body. Yet, over 80% of the population don’t get the minimum amounts of the types of magnesium they need from diet alone because US soil is lacks it. Magnesium deficiency can increase all disease risks and keep you from performing optimally. Even people who supplement tend to take types that are poorly absorbed, or they only take two types of magnesium at most. Each type benefits different tissues and organ systems. If you’re only taking one or two forms, you’re most likely still deficient. BiOptimizers Magnesium Breakthrough is the only supplement on the market that to offer the full spectrum of all seven types of magnesium specially formulated to reach every tissue in your body to provide maximum health benefits and reverses low levels which could be causing health issues. Magnesium and Anxiety Magnesium is extremely important for mental and neurological health. Studies have shown that magnesium deficiency[26] causes animals to be stressed and anxious. In humans, a low-magnesium diet is associated with anxiety and depression[27]. You need magnesium to deal with stress. Stress[28] causes you to excrete more magnesium through urine[29] Therefore, being deficient can create anxiety. Magnesium supplementation has been shown to promote a healthy stress response and reduce neurotransmitters that cause anxiety. It also promotes relaxation by increasing GABA,[30] the calming neurotransmitter. In a randomized controlled trial of mildly anxious subjects, magnesium + vitamin B6 significantly reduced stress scores[31] compared to the placebo. Magnesium supplements have also been shown to help improve mental health[32] in women with premenstrual syndrome and postpartum anxiety. To boost mood, reduce anxiety, and promote a healthy stress response, it is best to use a combination of forms of magnesium combined with vitamin B6.[33] Studies have confirmed that magnesium with organic acid salt (e.g. citrate and malate) or amino acids (e.g. taurate, glycinate, and sucrosomial)[34] are significantly better absorbed than inorganic salts (oxide, chloride, and sulfate).[35] Also, these different forms are absorbed into different tissues, with taurate, malate, and citrate being the most beneficial for the nervous system[36] BiOptimizers Magnesium Breakthrough contains the full spectrum of all seven forms of the most bioavailable magnesium along with vitamin B6 to support mental health and promote a healthy stress response. Ingredients Vitamin B6 and all 7 major forms of Magnesium: Glycinate, Taurate, Orotate, Sucrosomial, Citrate, Chelate, Malate. Suggested Use When you take magnesium in the morning, it supports brain function and stress response throughout the day. In the evening, high doses of magnesium promote relaxation and may help with sleep. Therefore, it is best to divide your magnesium supplement doses throughout the day. If that is not possible, take whenever you can. It is better to take mineral supplements, such as magnesium, on an empty stomach because you will absorb it more efficiently. However, some people experience upset stomach, so they take it with food. Studies of inorganic magnesium salts (oxide, chloride, and sulfate) found that stomach acid is necessary for magnesium absorption, so they need to be taken on an empty stomach. However, organic magnesium salts (citrate, glycinate, chelate, etc) are more readily absorbed even when taken with food. Our bodies don’t store magnesium well. It is generally excreted from your system within 24 hours of intake. Therefore, it is important to take magnesium every day. PRECAUTIONSKeep out of reach of children. As with any product, discontinue immediately if adverse effects occur. Please consult a physician before beginning any new supplement, diet, training program, or if you are undergoing treatment of a medical condition. Why Getting ALL 7 Forms of Magnesium Transforms Your Stress & Performance One of the biggest misconceptions about magnesium is that you just “need more” of it and you’ll be healthy and optimized. But the TRUTH is, there are many different types of magnesium — and each plays a critical role in different functions in your body. Most “healthy” people only get 1-2 forms at best (much of the population is deficient in all forms) — but when you get all 7 major forms of magnesium, that’s when the magic happens.

Wild-Lytes™ Electrolytes $54.00
Electrolyte balance means more than basic hydration—It’s a pillar of vibrant health. From ordinary activity and exercise to illness and overtaxed adrenals, electrolyte balance is a key player in our body’s ability to perform and recover, whatever the day throws our way. Wild-Lytes goes beyond the scope of a simple electrolyte formula to target the effects of daily stress, inflammation, adrenal fatigue and immune disruption at a cellular level, providing a foundation for whole-body health in every glass. What makes Wild-Lytes a powerhouse supplement is the synergetic effects of its cornerstone ingredients: Himalayan sea salt is mineral-rich and contains the natural electrolytes our body depletes through exercise, illness, and our everyday stress response. Cilantro supports oxygenation of the blood and is a natural liver detoxifier, helping to alleviate adrenal fatigue and unburden our overtaxed immune systems. Watermelon contains citrulline, a building block of nitric oxide—vital for cardiovascular function—and is rich in vitamins A, B6, and C, potassium, magnesium and l-arginine—an amino acid that manages blood supply to the muscles and can relieve muscle cramping and fatigue. Each element is powerful on its own, but transformed in union, supporting cellular communication for optimal results. Wild-Lytes Can Help Balance and Support: Hydration & Electrolyte Balance Detoxification Muscle Cramping & Fatigue Immune Function Mineralization Heart and Cardiovascular Function Adrenal Function Oxalate, Sulfur and Uric Acid Metabolism Lymphatic Metabolism Histamine Flairs Joint Pain and Swelling Blood Sugar Regulation Skin Health Wild-Lytes Formula Not all supplements are created equal. The Wild-Lytes formula takes into account commonly overlooked genetic sensitivities, and is free of oxalates and sulfur-containing compounds – common additives in standard supplements that have been shown to contribute to inflammation and poor microbial health which encourage the growth of pathogens and sparking immune irritation. Unlike many electrolyte supplements, nothing in this formulation down-regulates phase one liver detoxification or blocks sulfation pathways for oxalate metabolism. Wild-Lytes intentionally omits imbalancing ingredients to optimize epigenetic response for maximum efficacy and absorption. It is clean and pure – free from gluten, dairy, and Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs). Ingredients: Watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) contains a variety of nutrients including, vitamins A, C, B6, B1, potassium, magnesium, pantothenic acid, copper, riboflavin, iron, phosphorus, and manganese. It is rich in arginine, an amino acid involved in the synthesis of nitric oxide. Nitric oxide dilates blood vessels helping to increase blood flow and reduce the risk of high blood pressure. Nitric oxide is also involved in regulating the immune system. The vitamin C in watermelon is an essential micronutrient that is a powerful antioxidant and cofactor for a variety of enzymes. Vitamin C also contributes to immune defense and may even help treat respiratory and systemic infections. Lastly, watermelon contains both potassium and magnesium, which may be associated with improved heart health. Cilantro (Coriandrum sativum) is rich in phytonutrients, flavonoids, and phenolic compounds. It is a good source of dietary fiber, vitamins A, C, E, K, calcium, iron, potassium, and magnesium. Cilantro contains antioxidants that help protect against oxidative stress, mostly due to its quercetin content. The leaves and stem of cilantro have been shown to lower blood sugar in animal studies. Research in diabetic animals has shown cilantro can support liver function, balance blood sugar,  and manage cholesterol and triglycerides. Cilantro also contains antibacterial properties, helping to fight off Listeria. In addition, cilantro accelerates the removal of heavy metal from the body. Accumulation of heavy metals in the body can lead to dysfunction in hormonal regulations, neurological function, blood flow and circulation. Himalayan Pink Salt is millions of years old and untouched by many of the toxins and pollutants that are found in other forms of salt. Himalayan Pink salt contains various natural minerals, including potassium, magnesium, calcium, iron, and zinc. This helps maintain electrolyte balance and support the body’s cellular functions. Directions: Take 1 scoop (3/4 tsp) 1 to 3 times a day.
Serramend Proteolytic Enzyme $39.90
Serramend contains serratiopeptidase also known as serrapeptase; a naturally occurring proteolytic enzyme that has been used clinically in Europe and Asia for over thirty years. Has an anti-inflammatory effect Treats chronic lung, and ear, nose and throat disorders Digests scar tissue and speeds healing response Addresses sinusitis, sprains, strains, edema, postoperative inflammation, carpal tunnel syndrome, breast engorgement, (fibrocystic breast disease) venous inflammatory disease, asthma, cardiovascular disease, inflammatory pain conditions, leg ulcers, chronic headaches 180 Capsules Health Concerns Serramend – Product Description Serramend contains serratiopeptidase also known as serrapeptase; a naturally occurring proteolytic enzyme that has been used clinically in Europe and Asia for over thirty years. It has been well tested and shown efficacy for many conditions including traumatic injury, post operative inflammation, ear, nose and throat conditions, carpal tunnel syndrome, breast engorgement, and venous disease. It has also been promoted for the treatment of inflammatory pain conditions and cardiovascular diseases. In patients with chronic airway disease treatment with 30mg per day of serrapeptase for four weeks resulted in changes in sputum. Coughing and expectoration frequency were significantly decreased. Serrapeptase has also been used to treat chronic sinusitis at a serving of 30mg per day for four weeks leading to reduced sputum viscosity and improved quality of life. In several treatment centers with 193 patients, suffering from inflammatory ear, nose and throat conditions, treatment was compared with a placebo for seven to eight days. Compared with placebo, serrapeptase produced a more rapid response researchers concluded that the enzyme treatment produced anti-edemic, and fibrinolytic activity. The same serving was used in a 174 patient study of clients having surgery to correct buccal membrane swelling, patients in the treatment group demonstrated significantly less swelling compared with the placebo group. Another surgical study showed a reduction in the amount of postoperative swelling. Patients who received serrapeptase experience a 50 percent decrease in swelling in the third day following ankle surgery. Patients treated with standard measures (leg elevation, bed rest, ice) had no reductions in swelling. In treating carpal tunnel syndrome, 10mg twice daily for six weeks, led to significant clinical improvement in 65 percent of the patients. Results were confirmed via nerve-conduction studies. In a group of seventy women with cystic breast disease, 85.7 percent of the patients taking the enzyme had moderate to marked improvement. Serrapeptase has also been clinically studied and shown effective for the treatment of chronic bronchitis and venous inflammatory disease, and improving the effects of the antibiotics ofloxacin, cephalexin, and cefotiam. A pioneer in complementary medicine, Hans Nieper, MD used serrapeptase extensively for occluded arteries particularly when surgeons were reluctant to operate. He reported that many of his patients have shown significant improved blood flow through their previously constricted arteries as confirmed by ultrasound. He typically used the enzyme for at least six months to eighteen months. Several research groups have reported that serrapeptase/serratiopeptidase (thereafter Serramend™) is well absorbed orally when using enterically coated capsules or capsules. It is processed in the laboratory, although initially it was found in the silkworm intestine. By dissolving the silkworm’s protective cocoon, the moth is ready to fly away. Ingredients Serratiopeptidase 20mg of serratiopeptidase per capsule (not less than 2,000 units per mg) derived from L Serratia E15 Suggested Use 1 capsule TID between meals Contraindications: Serramend is not recommended during pregnancy. Caution should be applied if patients are on anti-coagulant drugs such as Coumadin, or have gastrointestinal ulcers. Some individuals report diarrhea.
BIOptimizers Magnesium Breakthrough Drink $33.99
8 Forms of Magnesium in One Tasty Drink! Promotes healthier, faster, deeper sleep Promotes a balanced stress response to feeling relaxed and at peace A key nutrient for healthy immune responses Provides an essential electrolyte to maintain a healthy rhythm Provides a key building block to strong bones Contains 8 different forms of magnesium Organic natural flavors and colors Sweetened with Katemfe fruit extract: a protein that is 3000 times sweeter than sucrose (does not spike glucose when metabolized) Vegan Friendly Magnesium Benefits: 🍃 Promotes Heart Health  Magnesium is extremely important for heart health and blood vessel health. Magnesium deficiency seems to worsen the inflammation, blood vessel constriction, blood clotting, and stress responses that trigger heart conditions. Correcting deficiency appears to improve heart health and reduce the risk of death, although it is unclear whether supplementation alone is sufficient to treat these conditions. 🍃 Improves the Ability to Deal With Stress and Helps to Relax A magnesium supplement significantly reduces stress in people who are deficient in magnesium. Also, combined with vitamin B6 was 40% more helpful than alone in very stressful situations. Findings support the need for magnesium supplementation for people living in conditions of chronic stress. 🍃 Helps With Mood, Cognitive Function, and Mental Health A magnesium supplement significantly improved mood after 2 weeks. Another trial found that magnesium supplements improved mood in seniors. 🍃 Promotes Healthy Blood Sugar Hormone Function And Promotes Healthy Metabolism Magnesium is important for hormones that regulate blood sugar to function well. Therefore, many people with blood sugar issues and metabolic syndrome are deficient in magnesium. Even when the blood sugar is well-controlled, a supplement would still be necessary to achieve healthy levels. In a clinical trial involving 65 diabetes patients, magnesium supplementation promotes healthy function and metabolism.A large-scale systematic and dose-response analysis found that magnesium supplementation correlated with reduced body weight and waist circumference among specific groups of people. Participants seemed to weigh less and had smaller waist circumference if they took magnesium supplements.Magnesium on its own doesn’t cure blood sugar problems or cause weight loss, but it can be highly beneficial in combination with diet and exercise. 🍃 Supports Exercise Performance and Recovery Magnesium supplementation improves speed and strength, possibly by making glucose metabolism more efficient. It also supports healthy stress response to exercise, counteracts excessive muscle damage, and improves exercise recovery (400 mg/day, taken at breakfast). 🍃 Improves Sleep Quality In a small clinical trial involving 46 elderly subjects with sleep struggles, 500 mg of daily magnesium supplement improved sleep quality, sleep latency, and cortisol. Subjects also had more serum melatonin, slept deeper, and were less likely to wake up in the middle of the night. 🍃 Builds Stronger Bones Magnesium is a key building block of your bones. Magnesium deficiency can contribute to osteoporosis by: preventing healthy bone formation, creating brittle bones causing low-grade inflammation increasing cortisol, which can contribute to bone loss reducing parathyroid hormone In a clinical trial involving 73,684 postmenopausal women, low magnesium intake was associated with lower bone density in the hip and whole body. Magnesium intake slightly higher than the Recommended Dietary Allowance was associated with lower arm and wrist fractures from falling.While magnesium is essential for bone health, magnesium supplements alone may not cure osteoporosis or osteopenia. Please speak to your doctor for diagnosis and treatments. 🍃 Promotes Healthy Blood Pressure A meta-analysis of 34 randomized control trials found that magnesium reduced blood pressure. However, the effect size is clinically small (<2 mmHg). Therefore, it may be good for supporting overall health and healthy blood pressure, but you may also need other interventions to achieve healthy blood pressure levels. 🍃 Promotes a Balanced and Healthy Immune System Magnesium deficiency contributes to increased inflammation and weak immune responses. In a meta-analysis involving 32,198 people, those with more magnesium had less serum C-reactive protein (a marker of inflammation).Overall, magnesium deficiencies tend to exacerbate or increase the risk of conditions that involve chronic inflammation. 🍃 Supports Vitamin D Activation and Metabolism Both Vitamin D and magnesium have important roles in bone health, immune function, and metabolism. Magnesium is a cofactor in vitamin D conversion and activation. Some people cannot increase their blood 25-hydroxy vitamin D levels despite supplementing with vitamin D3 because they are deficient in magnesium. In other words, magnesium deficiency can make vitamin D less effective.Also, in people deficient in magnesium, high doses of vitamin D3 could worsen magnesium deficiency and increase the potential for side effects of excessive vitamin D3, such as having calcium deposits in the arteries.  30 servings.  
Accelerated C60 ESS60 Formula 4oz $79.95
Accelerated C60: Enhanced Wellness and Longevity ESS60 Formula What is Accelerated C60? C60, also known as fullerene, is a molecule made of 60 carbon atoms arranged in a unique structure that resembles a soccer ball. Here's a breakdown of its key characteristics: Structure: C60 has a cage-like structure formed by 20 hexagons and 12 pentagons. This specific arrangement gives it interesting properties. Properties: One key property of C60 is that it acts as a strong antioxidant. Antioxidants help protect cells from damage caused by free radicals, which are unstable molecules in the body. Accelerated C60 supplement is prepared with meticulous care. We use only the finest Certified Organic (MOSA, NOP) GMO-free olive oil, independently tested and verified for purity.  What is ESS60? ESS60 stands for Elemental Safe Spheres and refers to a specific formulation of C60 (fullerene) designed for human consumption. Here's a breakdown of what makes ESS60 distinct: Safety Focus: The term "Elemental Safe Spheres" suggests that ESS60 has undergone a process to make it suitable for human consumption. This likely involves removing any residual solvents or impurities that might be present in industrial C60. Delivery Method: ESS60 is typically suspended in a carrier oil, like organic olive oil, to improve absorption by the body. C60 Benefits: C60 acts like a tireless bodyguard for your cells: It efficiently mops up free radicals, those unstable molecules that can damage your cells. C60 helps your body detoxify: It can reduce the harmful effects of chemical toxins you might encounter. C60 offers potential protection from radiation: This could be especially helpful for people undergoing certain medical procedures. C60 safeguards your skin from sun damage: Its properties may help prevent ultraviolet radiation from harming your cells. C60 supports healthy cells: It can help prevent damage caused by heavy metals in the environment. C60 helps support and optimize Cytokine Production Directions: Take 1-2 teaspoons daily. Frequently Asked Questions: Is C60 better than vitamin C?C60 is a Nobel Prize winning molecule and 172X the strength of vitamin C. Are there any side effects?No adverse effects from taking ESS60 in Olive Oil have been reported. However, as everyone reacts differently, adjust your dosage based on your individual experience. Can I take more than the recommended dose?Yes, some users take more than the suggested 5ml daily, some even up to 15ml twice a day. The key is to find the amount that works best for you. Do I need to take it with food?Since olive oil is a food itself, taking Accelerated C60 with additional food is not necessary. There's also no evidence that food intake affects the benefits. How to store?Store it like you would any high-quality olive oil: in a cool, dark place. Refrigeration is not recommended, as it may cause the oil to clump. If this happens due to cold weather during shipping, simply let the bottle sit at room temperature, and the oil will return to its normal state. What about the taste?Quality extra virgin olive oil has a characteristic peppery aftertaste that some may find unpleasant. The good news is, the taste disappears quickly with food or drinks. Alternatively, you can take the product with bread, salads, or explore creative methods to mask the flavor. Accelerated C60™ is a registered trademark of Accelerated Health Products LLC.
Health Concerns Channel Flow $31.85
Channel Flow is a natural herbal formula that has been shown to be equally effective at pain-relief as NSAIDs, ibuprofen, and aspirin without the negative side effects. The long term administration of NSAIDs, ibuprofen, and aspirin at regular adult dosages is deemed unsafe for most patients due to danger to the heart, kidneys and gastrointestinal tract. Opiates are contraindicated long term because they are addictive. Although many doctors prescribe Tylenol, it can be dangerous to the liver especially in high dosages. Gastrointestinal effects include acute biliary pain, cholestasis, nausea and vomiting. The long term safety of Tylenol has not been established. Because herbal formulas made in China are often adulterated with unsafe analgesics, Health Concerns wanted to provide a safe, consistent and effective formula manufactured here in the United States. Therapeutic Actions of Channel Flow: Has pain relieving and relaxant properties Helps relieve joint, muscle, abdominal and gynecological pain and cramping Treats headache, arthritis, and fibromyalgia, especially when used with other formulas Supports normal menstruation and a fertile environment Formula Channel Flow, a modified Huo Luo Xiao Ling Dan Corydalis Extract Herbal Supplement, was developed by Misha Cohen, OMD, LAc, and Andrew Gaeddert, out of their clinical experience with fibromyalgia, abdominal pain, and gynecological disorders. This formula was designed for quick results. Corydalis (yan hu suo) was chosen as the chief herb for the formula, as it is very widely used in China for pain relief. It is 25% of the formula in a 7:1 extract. Corydalis invigorates the blood and alleviates pain. Corydalis also regulates Qi and is used for pain in the chest, abdomen, and epigastric area. It is also used for menstrual pain, as well as hernia-like (bearing down) pain. Corydalis has a mild sedative effect. Angelica (bai zhi) relieves pain, especially in the upper body, neck, and shoulders. Tang kuei (dang gui) has a special effect in relieving abdominal and uterine pain. Traditionally it is used for dysmenorrhea and arthritic pain. It increases local circulation of blood and has a warming effect. Its functions are to nourish, tonify, and invigorate the blood. Tang kuei, with salvia (dan shen) and myrrh (mo yao), alleviates pain due to blood stagnation in the extremities. White peony (bai shao) alleviates pain, spasms, and cramping. Cinnamon twig (gui zhi) was chosen for the specific effect of bringing the herbs to the surface of the body and to promote circulation of blood. The traditional functions include warming the channels. It has shown analgesic effects according to Western research. Salvia (dan shen) was chosen for its specific effect of relieving menstrual pain. Its traditional functions include invigorating blood and removing blood stasis and heat. According to Western research, salvia increases microcirculation of blood flow and has a sedative effect. Myrrh and frankincense are included for their functions in relieving pain. Frankincense (ru xiang) invigorates the blood and promotes movement of Qi. It alleviates pain and reduces swelling. Myrrh (mo yao) invigorates the blood, dispels blood stasis, reduces swelling and alleviates pain. Both frankincense and myrrh promote healing. Licorice (gan cao) alleviates pain and spasms, and has anti-inflammatory and detoxicant effects.

They hand select the finest wild picked or organically grown herbs whenever possible, paying close attention to species, region of cultivation, time of harvest, and the spirit in which plants are grown and collected. They use only the most potent part of the plant. They do not use herbs that are endangered, sprayed or fumigated. Laboratory Testing Trained herbalists evaluate the herbs for quality on the basis of smell, taste and appearance, as has been done for thousands of years. The amount of active components, strength, and efficacy are then verified by analysis. To screen for pesticides, heavy metals, sulfites, and bacterial contamination, samples are sent to independent labs, which use the latest technology. Capillary electrophoresis, high-pressure liquid chromatography, gas chromatography, and thin-layer chromatography provide detailed compositional analysis at the molecular level. Processing and Potency Once the herbs have passed inspection, they are processed according to tradition to maximize potency and eliminate undesired effects. Raw herbs may be steamed, baked, alcohol-soaked or ginger-processed. The selection of each herb is double-checked and quantities are weighed twice so that formulas are uniform from batch to batch. Herbs are granulated and cooked as a decoction to improve bio availability. Combining Components They devote meticulous attention to each individual component of a formula and then, of course, to how components work together. Roots are cooked over low temperature overnight. Flowers are prepared by infusion. Alkaloid-containing herbs are soaked in alcohol, and aromatic extracts are added last to preserve their volatile components. A small amount of acacia gum and cellulose are used to bind the ingredients together, while magnesium aids the tableting process. Tableting and Packaging Once the herbs are compressed into tablets, they are coated to ease swallowing and preserve freshness. To make sure they can be absorbed, their disintegration is timed. During the final stage of manufacturing, they are packaged into bottles, inner and outer safety seals are applied, and each bottle is stamped with a lot number and manufacture date. A sample of each batch is sent to an outside lab to ensure the accuracy, purity and potency. Fully Tested & Guaranteed All Health concerns formulas are made in accordance with cGMP (Current Good Manufacturing Practices). Their manufacturing facility is certified by NSF International, an accrediting organization that tests, audits and certifies facilities.

Benefits This formula can be used successfully for relieving pain from knee tendonitis, tennis elbow, headaches, and for routine pain as you would an NSAID or Tylenol. Clients have used Channel Flow alone or with other herbal formulas for arthritis, fibromyalgia, endometriosis, dysmenorrhea, headaches, TMJ pain, low back, shoulder and neck pain, and post-surgical recovery. The formula has also been used experimentally for foot and ankle pain. In general, two to three tablets provide equivalent pain relief to 400mg of ibuprofen. In pain clinics, motivated patients have found that Channel Flow can significantly lower the need for opiates. According to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM): Channel Flow, also known as Huo Luo Xiao Ling Dan (modified), regulates Qi and blood and warms the channels. Clinical Case Studies: Case 1: A thirty-year-old patient who worked as a social worker was dependent on NSAIDs and ergot medications to control her migraines. A neurologist advised her to stop all NSAIDs and headache medicine. She was advised to stop these medications cold turkey to prevent rebound headaches. She found that three tablets of Channel Flow effectively stopped 90 percent of her headaches. Case 2: A patient who had rotator cuff surgery was prescribed oxycodone every 4-6 hours for post-surgical relief. He had many side effects from the drug and he was afraid he was going to become addicted. In addition to acupuncture, he found that two to three tablets of Channel Flow worked to control his pain without the side effects of the oxycodone. His surgeon commented that he had recovered faster from surgery than any other middle-aged patient. Use The standard serving is two to three tablets, three times per day. For acute conditions, it can be used four or more times per day. It is recommended that you take the formula between meals, two hours apart from medications. Channel Flow can be used symptomatically for pain. For best results, it should be incorporated into an overall pain management plan.
