Nature For Life - Women's & Men's Health

Many women resort to high-risk surgical procedures to obtain larger, firmer and more shapely breasts. However, breast augmentation is expensive and carries some weighty health risks. A less invasive, less risky and less expensive natural alternative is now available from NSP.  Breast Enhance improves breast size and firmness naturally.

 

 

BENEFITS                                         

• Enhances breast size and shape naturally.
• Helps maintain hormone balance. 
• Provides natural ingredients that promote breast health.

HOW IT WORKS                                                           

Breast Enhance contains herbs that help maintain normal female hormone levels and enhance the size and firmness of breast tissue. The postovulatory and premenstrual experience of breast enlargement, when both estrogen and progesterone secretions are very high, suggest that hormone levels may enhance breast size and shape.

NSP ADVANTAGE

NSP Breast Enhance contains herbs that have been used for centuries by some cultures to enhance the breasts. This high quality herbal formula contains a specialized extract of genistein-rich kudzu root extract, making it unique to the marketplace.

SCIENTIFIC SUPPORT

Breast Enhance contains isoflavones (rich in genistein), vitamins and some phytosterols. Some studies show that isoflavone supplementation can increase the proliferation rate of breast lobular epithelium after 14 days of use. Isoflavones have been shown to mimic the hormones principally responsible for the growth of breast tissue.

INGREDIENTS

Breast Enhance contains kudzu root extract, alfalfa herb, dong quai root extract and saw palmetto fruit extract.                    

RECOMMENDED USE

Take 1 capsule with a meal three times daily.

COMPLEMENTARY PRODUCTS

Our bodies’ cells require energy to carry out their essential functions, and oxygen creates that energy daily. But the process leaves behind a byproduct called a free radical. If free radicals are not removed from the body, they can, over time, cause oxidative stress. Antioxidants are the body’s natural defense against oxidative stress. The combination of antioxidant ingredients in Super ORAC pack a powerful punch in helping to protect cells from free radical damage. Oxidative stress has been implicated in aging and the impact on overall cardiovascular and neurological health. The antioxidants contained in Super ORAC help neutralize oxidation and the destructive effects of free radicals. ORAC is an acronym for oxygen radical absorbance capacity used for determining the antioxidant value of foods or supplements.

Benefits:

• Provides key nutrients needed by the body to neutralize free radicals.
• Helps prevent cellular damage.
• May exhibit anti-aging benefits.

How It Works

Although free radicals are generated naturally in the body, other sources can increase their number—including stress, pollution and even exercise. Each of these sourcescan take a toll on the body, but antioxidants can help offset that toll. Serving as scavengers in the body, antioxidants scour our systems and “mop up” free radicals before they have a chance to harm cells. Super ORAC combines several powerful antioxidants recognized for their ability to neutralize free radicals, thereby helping to maintain th integrity of cellular makeup.

Nature's Sunshine Advantage

Our bodies’ cells require energy to carry out their essential functions, and oxygen creates that energy daily. But the process leaves behind a byproduct called a free radical. If free radicals are not removed from the body, they can, over time, cause oxidative stress. Antioxidants are the body’s natural defense against oxidative stress. The combination of antioxidant ingredients in Super ORAC pack a powerful punch in helping to protect cells from free radical damage.

Scientific Support

Oxidative damage has been associated with accelerated aging. A daily antioxidant supplement may help slow oxidative damage caused by stress, poor nutrition, pollution, unhealthy lifestyles or other factors.

 

Ingredients

Two capsules provide 150 mg polyphenols in a proprietary blend of green tea leaves extract, mangosteen pericarp extract, turmeric root extract, quercetin, resveratrol, apple extract, acai berry extract and selenium.

 

Recommended Use

Take 1-2 capsules with a meal daily.

The art of Aromatherapy is the use of aromatic essential oils to benefit the body's emotional and physical well-being. With the development of modern chemistry, essential oils became neglected. But early last century, a French chemist named René began studying what he later named aromatherapy . Pleased with his discovery, he spent the rest of his life researching the value of essential oils.

Essential oils are considered the "life force" of plant life.  Science has discovered that the sense of smell plays a significant role in overall health. Therefore, inhalation or external application of aromatic essential oils can be used to help support emotional feelings of balance and overall well-being.

Essential Oils Safety Guidelines

Because essential oils are so concentrated, most of them need to be diluted in oil, lotion, water salts or some other carrier before they are applied to the skin. Carriers prevent the essential oils from quickly evaporating, protect the skin and make blending essential oils easy.

• Citrus oils increase the photosensitivity of the skin and should not be applied before sunbathing or prolonged sun exposure.
• Always test essential oils on a small patch of skin to determine your skin's sensitivity.
• Keep all essential oils out of reach of children.
• Follow all label instructions.
• Avoid exposure to the eyes and sensitive skin areas. In the case of contact, flush the area with milk or a carrier oil. (Essential oils are not water-soluble and water may worsen the irritation.)
• Use oils externally: do not ingest.
• Store essential oils away from heat, light, dampness and electromagnetic frequencies (TV, computer, etc.)
• Avoid strong sunlight or sun beds after topically applying essential oils.
• Avoid applying essential oils immediately after perspiring or using a sauna.
• If pregnant, terminally ill or undergoing drug therapy, consult your health care provider before using essential oils.
• Take a periodic break from using essential oils. Use oils for six days and then rest for a day, or use oils for three weeks and then rest a week.
• If taking homeopathic remedies, wait an hour before and after using essential oils.

Many people know Dandelion as one of the bothersome little weeds that pop up all over the yard, but Dandelion is actually an herb that has been used for centuries for many ailments such as liver disorders, high cholesterol and breast cancer.

Dandelion originates in Greece. The Chinese began sharing the benefits of this herb around the 7th century, while the Europeans have been utilizing the benefits of Dandelion for more than 500 years. Studies have shown Dandelion to be beneficial for hepatitis, jaundice and gallstones.  It is considered to be a blood purifying herb and may be useful in treating anemia.

Other uses include:

Acne Arthritis Blood Cleanser Corns Diabetes Endurance Fever Hemorrhage Kidneys PMS Skin Ailments Ulcers

Age Spots Asthma Bronchitis Cramps Eczema Fatigue Gas Indigestion Metabolism Psoriasis Spleen Warts

Anemia Blisters Constipation Dermatitis Edema Female Organs Gout Infections Pancreas Rheumatism Stomach

Dandelion has mild diuretic properties and promotes urination to release excess fluids from the body. For this reason, many experience weight loss which is due to water weight. Medications which are used as diuretics can deplete potassium in the body. Dandelion, however, is a natural diuretic that contains potassium. It is beneficial for conditions of inflammation of the joints as it stimulates the body's ability to rid itself of uric acid. Dandelion is also very useful in conditions of the breast and is used to treat ailments such as fibrocystic breast disorder and in some cultures has been used for hundreds of years to treat breast cancer. Since this herb is a diuretic, it is also beneficial for breast tenderness due to water retention and is also beneficial for promoting lactation in nursing moms.

Rich in nutrients, Dandelion contains A, C and B-complex vitamins as well as other nutrients such as manganese, magnesium, phosphorous, potassium, selenium and zinc.

Contraindications

Dandelion is a very mild, safe herb. It can be used for long periods of time with no adverse effects. However, it is not recommended for individuals who have dry conditions that involve deficiency of fluids in the body.
