	Calcium Magnesium (240 Capsules) Each of these minerals depends on the other for proper assimilation in the body. Calcium is essential to the health of bones, teeth and muscles, and it plays an essential role in blood clotting, nerve conduction and many cellular functions. Magnesium activates more than 300 enzymes in the body and with calcium, affects nerve and muscle functions. More than 80% of the natural magnesium in grains is lost by removal of the germ and outer layers, which happens in food processing. This combination also includes vitamin D, known to work synergistically with calcium, as well as phosphorus, zinc, copper and boron. Stock No. 1671 Price: £15.95


	Chondroitin (60 Capsules) Helps bond connective tissue to prevent tearing and inhibits enzymes that can deplete cartilage nutrition (cartilage functions to protect bones from moving against each other and to reduce friction). Chondroitin helps retain moisture in the joints, allowing for flexibility and resiliency cushioning against activities like jumping and lifting. In addition, chondroitin works with other nutrients like glucosamine to stimulate the rebuilding and maintenance of cartilage. The body produces chondroitin, but that production decreases as we grow older. Chondroitin is found in foods, but usually only in small amounts. Fortunately, the body absorbs chondroitin well, making supplementation a viable alternative. Take 2 capsules with a meal twice daily. Drink 8 ounces of pure water along with the capsules. Stock No. 1811 Price: £24.95


	Glucosamine (60 Capsules) Occurs naturally in the body’s joints and cartilage and plays a key role in the structural system. As we age, our bodies become less efficient at manufacturing the elements necessary for healthy joint structure. Glucosamine works with nutrients like chondroitin to stimulate rebuilding and maintenance of cartilage. Now you can get glucosamine with the added nutritional benefits of uña de gato (cat’s claw), one of the world’s foremost tonic herbs. Uña de gato grows in the highland rainforests of Peru, where it has been popular for centuries. Uña de gato provides nutrients essential to the body’s structural system, plus it’s a premier metabolic tonic herb. It also has cleansing properties. Stock No. 932 Price: £17.50


	MSM (90 Capsules) This naturally occurring organic form of dietary sulphur is used by our bodies on a daily basis for many functions. Organic sulphur is the fourth most abundant mineral found in the body, and it is essential that we take in enough, daily, to replace what the body uses. In mammals the concentration of MSM in the body decreases with age, and as one half of the body's sulphur is concentrated in the muscles, skin, nails and bones, some research suggests a minimum concentration of MSM must be maintained in the body to preserve normal functioning and structure.

	Omega 3 EPA (60 Capsules) Omega-3 is a classification of certain kinds of fatty acids that result from the breakdown of dietary fats in the body. They are used to form membranes surrounding each of our trillions of cells. Fish get omega-3 oils from the plankton they eat. The names of these omega-3 oils are EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid). DHA is most concentrated in the brain and retina. Both are included in this formulation-EPA 180mg and DHA 120mg, with natural d-alpha tocopherol acetate (vitamin E) to help preserve freshness. Sources for these fish oils are the flesh of cold water fish such as salmon and mackerel. Does not contain fish liver oils. Stock No. 1609 Price: £12.95
