Abana®
- Natural Heart Support
(60 tablets)
Abana®
is a cardiac tonic that supports the heart function. It
helps regulate blood pressure and maintains the balance
between supply and demand of myocardial oxygen. A wide range
of individuals can benefit from taking Abana®
daily as a dietary supplement, including: smokers, overweight
people, people who consume high-fat diets, and people who
lead a stressful life.
The health benefits
of Abana® are derived from at least three different
modes of action. First, Abana® regulates lipid
metabolism by increasing the protective HDL-cholesterol
while lowering both total and bad LDL-cholesterol. Second,
Abana® reduces platelet adhesion. Third, Abana®
supports the heart indirectly by helping people overcome
nervousness and anxiety. It is known, indeed, that stresses
of modern life, tension, anxieties and frustrations are
all factors affecting the heart's health. With proven effect
at all the above levels, this formula very effectively helps
maintain a normal cardiac function.

Key research: Support of the
cardiac function is a complex phenomenon. Several hormones and
biogenic amines are known to influence the mechanism of cardiac
function. Excessive secretion of histamine has been reported to
trigger the secretion of norepinephrine. In a study of the circulating
levels of histamine published in Current Medical Practice (1988):
5,115, two weeks of Abana® use brought about a marked
reduction in those levels.
One of the most important mechanisms
involved in maintaining a healthy heart function is linked to
lipid concentration. The effect of Abana® on lipids
has been thoroughly researched and results have been published
in Alternative Medicine Zurich, Switzerland, (1986): 3, 241. Abana®
was shown to exert a significant influence on lipid metabolism:
reduction of total lipids, serum triglycerides and serum cholesterol.
In
another placebo-controlled study published in Alternative Medicine
(1990): 3, 139., Abana® was found to increase
the levels of HDL-cholesterol - the "good" cholesterol
that has a protective effect by mobilizing cholesterol from tissue
and returning it to the liver.
Bronchotab®
- Natural Breathing
Support
(120 tablets)
Bronchotab®
is a unique complex herbal formula that provides overall
support of the respiratory function and helps maintain optimum
bronchial effectiveness. It broadly addresses many underlying
mechanisms linked to optimum breathing.
There is a traditional Indian
way to help people cope with environmental factors, air
pollution and allergens that usually determine the respiratory
effectiveness: the use of botanicals that have immunomodulatory
and immune- enhancing properties. Formulas also rely on
ingredients such as Tylophora asthmatica or Rhus succedanea
that have been shown to support the functioning of the bronchial
musculature.
|
|
Ingredients:
Galls
(Rhus succedanea) - Supports bronchial and pulmonary health.

Siris
(Albizzia lebbek) - Bark has a long history of use in all respiratory
conditions.
Recommended dosage:
Take 1 or 2 tablets twice per day, preferably with meals.
Key research: The
health benefits of Tylophora asthmatica, a key ingredient of Bronchotab®,
have been well documented and proven through clinical trials.
In a study published in Planta Medica (1991) 409, Tylophora asthmatica
promotes bronchial effectiveness and regulates the immune response
to allergens. Clinical trials have also been conducted on the
complete formula, Bronchotab®, and have established
its effectiveness in supporting the overall respiratory function.
The benefits of Bronchotab® have been shown to be linked
to the suppression of antibody production and inhibition of antigen
induced histamine release. The results were published in the Indian
Journal of Pharmacology 1999;31: 133-137.
Cystone®
- Natural Urinary Support
(100 tablets)

Key research:
The mode of action of Cystone® is linked to calcium
metabolism and the proper physicochemical conditions to maintain
calcium in solution for normal elimination. Cystone®
has been shown to reduce the susceptibility of calcium salts of
oxalic or uric acids to develop microcrystals.
Cystone® administration regulates uric acid levels
and brought about significant improvement in the quality of life
- (The Medicine and Surgery (1980): May - June 5).
In a controlled trial of 100 cases, Cystone® was compared
with other methods, such as antispasmodics, to maintain urinary
health. The results, published in Current Medical Practice, May
1982, show much better results for Cystone® which gave
excellent results in 76% of the cases. No side effects were observed
even with prolonged use for six months.

Recommended dosage:
1 tablet twice daily, preferably with meals.
Key research: It
is now well documented that one of the main chemical reactions
involved in aging is free radical damage to cells, especially
the very damaging superoxide particles. In healthy young people
an enzyme called superoxide dismutase (SOD) scavenges these reactive
free radicals and produces hydrogen peroxide which is then eliminated
in the form of water by another enzyme called catalase (CAT).
The concentration of those two enzymes is in direct correlation
with the degree of protection against the damaging effects of
free radicals and is therefore an excellent marker for the antioxidant
efficiency of protective formulas.
In a striking placebo-controlled
study published in the Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences
(Vol 717, June 30, 1994, pp. 170-173)., Geriforte®
induced a significant increase in the production of both enzymes
SOD and CAT, prompting the authors to state that through
the elimination of damaging free radicals responsible for the
oxidative damages linked to aging, Geriforte® is an ideal
tonic for promoting health and longevity.

indicate that Glucosim® is effective both as an independent
formulation or as part of a more comprehensive approach.
Studies about the mechanism of action of Glucosim®
have shown that it restores liver glycogen levels and promotes
insulin secretion by repair and regeneration of pancreas beta
cells.
Kilose®
- Natural
Lipid Regulator
(60 capsules)
Kilose®
is a unique complex herbal formula that regulates the metabolism
of fats and has shown excellent results in cases of obesity,
thereby protecting overweight people against possible consequences
of excess lipids.
The concept of obesity as a
disorder of the lipid metabolism was described in Ayurveda,
and a number of herbal formulas have been used safely for
centuries. The metabolic action of Guggul and HCA (hydroxycitric
acid from Garcinia cambogia) have been well documented.
It has been well established
that the primary factor supporting a normal lipid metabolism
is the regulation of the sugar content in the blood stream.
The presence of Gymnema makes Kilose® the natural
solution when weight control difficulties are linked to
poor regulation of the glucose metabolism.
|
|
Ingredients:
Garcinia
(Garcinia cambogia) - Contains (-) hydroxycitric acid that is
known to inhibit the synthesis of fatty acids.

In case of gastric irritation, Kilose® should be taken
after meals.
Additional instructions:
It is important to get at least 20 to 30 minutes of activity
four to five times a week
(a brisk walk, swim, etc.)
Daily intake of 8 to 12 glasses of water is necessary in
order to improve absorption of Kilose®.
Eat moderately; do not deprive yourself of an occasional
treat.
Kilose® should be used continuously for 4-6
months for best results. Loss of weight in terms of inches as
well as pounds will be observed, depending on the amount of superficial
or deep-seated fat in the body. Each persons body is built
differently and responds in its own unique way.
Key research: Studies
have shown that (-) hydroxycitric acid (HCA) present in the Garcinia
cambogia extract (containing not less than 50% w/w of HCA) is
known to inhibit lipogenesis and fatty acid synthesis. It acts
by inhibiting the citrate cleavage enzyme which catalyses the
formation of precursors for fatty acid synthesis. In a study published
in International Journal of Obesity (1996), HCA has also been
shown to boost basal metabolic rate so the body continues to burn
calories and lose weight.

Key research: The
well known effects of Ethanol (ethyl alcohol) on the liver are
due to accumulation of acetaldehyde, a metabolite of ethanol which
causes unwanted symptoms related to the central nervous system.
In a study of the absorption and metabolism of ethanol (European
Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 1991,40 : pp. 189-91), Liv.52®
was shown to enhance the urinary secretion of acetaldehyde, suggesting
that Liv.52® prevents the binding of acetaldehyde to
cell proteins in the liver.
A more recent study published in
the Indian Journal of Experimental Biology, Vol.37, August 1999,
pp.762-766, confirms that the hepatoprotective nature of Liv.52®
might be attributed to its ability to inhibit lipid
peroxidation.
Liv.52® has also been
found to be associated with an increase in serum albumin, which
is another indication of the liver protection it provides. Recent
work shows that Liv.52® has cholesterol-regulating
action. Clinically, it helps maintain healthy levels of serum
cholesterol, lipoproteins, phospholipids and triglycerides.

Key research:
It is now widely accepted, based on extensive clinical and experimental
data, that learning and memory are closely associated with the
functional status of the central cholinergic system. According
to this model, Mentat® Jr. was evaluated in the presence
of substances known to have cholinotoxic effects. The results,
published in an Italian journal, Fitoterapia (Vol. LXVI, No.3
pp. 216-222, 1995), indicate that Mentat® Jr. actively
promotes cholinergic recovery, thereby facilitating central cholinergic
mechanisms, which explains Mentat® Jr.s effectiveness
in promoting mental alertness.
Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera)
was investigated for its effect on the nervous system. The study
showed that Ashwagandha is effective on the area which is responsible
for tranquility and calmness - (Indian Drugs Feb.22, 1993, (30)

Key research: A
clinical trial, reported in Antiseptic (1980): 10, 590, was conducted
over two years on 50 patients, with common parameters of urination
used to assess the effectiveness of Prostane® in maintaining
a healthy urinary function. Positive response was reported in
more than 80% of the cases, with complete satisfaction in more
than 50%.
A later study on urinary comfort was conducted in 1988 on 82 patients
and reported in Curr. Medical Practice (July 1992): (36), 7, 179.
It concluded that Prostane® is an effective and safe
prostate health product. There is experimental evidence that shows
Prostane® potentiates the action of adrenaline on the
prostatic capsule. As adrenaline is known to cause contraction
of the smooth muscles, this mechanism of action seems to explain
the efficacy of Prostane® in maintaining a healthy
prostate.

as climate, lifestyle, work habits and sedentary, repetitive
movement, etc. Taken daily as a dietary supplement, Rumalaya®
has demonstrated very good results in relieving discomfort
caused by morning stiffness. Results are gradual but long
lasting.
The mechanism
of the support action of Rumalaya® has been explained
by an increase in the concentration of a substance that,
in turn, inhibits the release of lysosomal enzymes and helps

satisfaction reported after three months. - Indian Medical
Journal (1984):(78), 6, 82-86
Septilin®
- Natural Immune Support
(80 tablets)
The weakening of immune protection,
the bodys main line of defense, usually results in many
unhealthy conditions. Common quick relief methods
of treatment only temporarily ease the symptoms, they dont
provide any preventative measures. The Ayurvedic alternative,
however, is aimed at building up the bodys
own defense mechanisms to prevent negative conditions. Septilin®
contains many medicinal plants, such as Guggul, which possess
immunomodulatory properties that aid this building up
process.
Septilin® provides effective support of the immune
function, ensuring that the immune response works efficiently.
The best level of resistance is achieved through normalization
of leukocyte function by improved phagocytosis (the immune
response by some of the white blood cells - leukocytes and
macrophages - that destroys microorganisms and foreign bodies).
|
|
Ingredients:
Guggul
(Commiphora mukul ) - Famous broad spectrum herb. Promotes general
defense mechanism of the body through increased white blood cell
production.
Guduchi
(Tinospora cordifolia) - Tonic which helps build the bodys
immune resistance.
Indian
Madder (Rubia cordifolia) - Blood-purifying herb and immune
regulator.
Amalaki
- Indian Gooseberry (Emblica officinalis) - High in natural Vitamin
C. Very potent antioxidant and proven immune function booster.
Horseradish
Tree (Moringa pterygosperma) - Broad stimulant that helps
support a healthy immune function.
Licorice
(Glycyrrhiza glabra) - Rich in flavonoids (antioxidants).
Recommended dosage:
Take 1 or 2 tablets twice daily, preferably with meals.
Key research: Although
Septilin® has shown no direct antibacterial activity
in culture media, it significantly protected animals against pathogen-induced
infections, suggesting a stimulation of phagocytic activity. (Indian
Journal of Experimental Biology, Vol.32, August 1994, pp.553-558).
Indeed, other studies have indicated that the phagocytosis of
bacteria is significantly increased in people who have taken Septilin®
for several weeks. That increase can be linked with recent clinical
and experimental work that clearly demonstrates that many complex
glycoproteins of plant origin have the ability to induce a proliferate
response in different types of cells in the immune system. All
those studies suggest a model in which complex herbomineral formulations
interact with the bodys defense mechanisms and offer a natural
and effective option to strengthen the bodys resistance.
Another multiple dose, double blind,
placebo-controlled study was conducted to assess the health promoting
benefits of Septilin® for allergen sensitive people.
Septilin® was found to be very effective and had a
much lower incidence of side effects than commonly used products.
(Indian Journal of Pharmacology - 1993 - Vol 25, pp. 114).
Septilin®
Jr. - Natural
Immune Support
(120 tablets or 200ml liquid)
Weakening of the immune
protection, the first and foremost health maintenance mechanism,
usually results in unhealthy conditions, and common quick
relief methods have largely failed to ensure long-term remission.
By contrast, the ayurvedic alternative is aimed at building up
the bodys own defense mechanisms. Many medicinal plants,
such as Guggul, have long been known to have immunomodulatory
properties. Septilin® Jr. contains some of these immunoactive
plant principles that have been reported to potentiate the non-specific
defense mechanisms of the body.
Septilin® Jr. provides effective support of the immune
function, ensuring that the immune response works efficiently.
The best level of resistanceis achieved through normalization
of leukocyte function by improved phagocytosis (the immune response
by some of the white blood cellsleukocytes and macrophages
that destroys microorganisms and foreign bodies).
Ingredients:
Guggul

patients took Speman® for nine months. Seventy percent
showed increase in sperm count and forty-seven percent had improvement
in sperm motility. Conception rate was above average. No side
effects were registered.
There is experimental evidence that
Speman® potentiates the action of adrenaline on the
seminal vesicles, causing contraction of the smooth muscles. This
mechanism of action seems to explain the formulas efficacy.

Vol.XVIII, No.2, Jan.-Mar. 1979, pp.76-78 showed a group who took
Tentex® forte had improved libido and sexual weakness
by 84% in comparison to placebo.
Experimental studies have associated
the increased libido and improved performance to the action of
Tentex® forte on the hypothalamus. This action seems
far superior to the mechanism of action and the effects of testosterone.
In a double-blind, placebo-controlled study of men with libidinal
hypoactivity, Tentex® forte proved to be very helpful
and was found to be significantly superior to the placebo of counseling
alone.
