Hooked on fish oil?
Now you have a vegetarian choice!

For all the reasons you take fish oil, now you can take vegetarian Udo’s Choice® Udo’s DHA Oil Blend. Many people presume that fish is the best or only source of pre-formed DHA omega-3. Not necessarily. Fish get most of their DHA from a primitive form of plant called algae, and now you can too. Udo’s DHA Oil Blend provides you with a 100% vegetarian source of DHA derived from cultivated marine algae. Light and pleasant tasting, there is no fishy after-taste that comes along on this ride! DHA from algae does not contain heavy metals and PCBs that are associated with fish. Clean and ecologically sustainable, Udo’s DHA Oil Blend provides you with an unrefined and hexane-free DHA –plus a complete spectrum of EFAs from the original Udo’s 3•6•9 Oil Blend in the form of fresh-pressed, certified organic flax, sesame, sunflower and evening primrose seed oils. For all you Udo’s fans out there who are already taking the original oil blend and loving the results, keep taking it! For those people who may have a compromised digestive system and have a hard time converting the omega-3s into DHA, then Udo’s DHA Oil Blend could be the one for you. Since conversion rates are strongly dependant on dietary, lifestyle and genetic factors, not everyone converts at the same rate. Udo’s DHA Oil Blend contains naturally-occuring DHA, which makes it easier and faster for your body to utilize the benefits. Or if you have a fine operating digestive tract and simply want the added benefits of naturally-occurring DHA, then Udo’s DHA Oil Blend is an excellent choice.

As a sustainable solution to a global problem, Udo’s DHA Oil Blend is made with both environmental and health consciousness. You now have a choice. Make it Udo’s Choice^®.

Are you dealing with inflammation and pain?

Approximately 45% of people over the age of 65 will be stricken with arthritis, but they don’t have to suffer. Pagosid^® Devil’s Claw Root Extract has been shown to significantly reduce pain and swelling of the joints within only 30 days. Devil’s Claw Soothing Cream in conjunction with Pagosid^® Devil’s Claw tablets pack a tight punch to pain and inflammation.

Surprising duo beats the winter blahs

Every year, the winter months bring about a combination of physical and emotional exhaustion that challenges both the immune system and the nerves. Salus Echinacea and St. John’s Wort Juices may be able to help you combat winter health challenges. Each herb alone is well known for its restorative properties. What most people don’t know is that when used together, echinacea and St. John’s wort form an unbeatable team. After experiencing them together, you won’t go back to just using one.

The success in this combination is due to the 100% natural and highly concentrated active ingredients in Salus Fresh Plant Juices. Pressed from fresh cellular plants and filled directly into glass bottles within 3-4 hours of harvesting, the juices are devoid of any additives and preservatives.

Healthy snack ideas for life in the fast lane

Udo’s Choice^® Wholesome Fast Food Blend is designed for people on the go. This filling, fibrous, nutty-tasting powder contains 50 nutritious ingredients that provide healthy fat, carbohydrates and protein (from nuts, seeds, greens and rejuvenating herbs). Mix it with water or juice, or stir it into yogurt or applesauce to get immediate energy so you can keep on with your fast and furious lifestyle.

If you’re guilty of not eating your 5-10 servings of vegetables, Beyond Greens^® might be made for you. This synergistic blend of the finest green foods also gives you essential fatty acids, fibre, whole food concentrates, antioxidants and digestive enzymes to help you absorb the nutrients you may be lacking from your diet. Beyond Greens^® delivers maximum nutrition with minimal effort.

Ever find yourself reaching for something caffeinated to give you that extra boost? Replace caffeine with green! Flora Wheat Grass Powder is organically grown and loaded with naturally occurring vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and amino acids to boost your cells with the fuel they need to keep you feeling nourished and alert. When taken daily, this fresh-tasting green helps your body cleanse itself of environmental toxins, freeing your blood and organs of metals and pollutants that slow you down. Flora Wheat Grass Powder is delicious mixed with ice water or lemonade. Grown outside in a natural and organic environment, Flora Wheat Grass, even as a powder, contains more nutrients than freshly juiced wheat grass that is grown in trays at an accelerated growth rate and artificial lighting.

Trust your gut

Did you know that when you have a “gut feeling” about something, it’s not just an intangible, intuitive sense – it’s actually a physiological reaction that takes place in the enteric nervous system? Known as the “gut-brain”, the ENS resides close to the esophagus, stomach, and small and large intestines. It contains more neurons than the spinal cord, and is directly connected to the head-brain. As described in The Slow Down Diet: Eating for Pleasure, Energy, & Weight Loss, by nutritionist Marc David, if you can’t “stomach” a situation or if something makes you want to “gag”, it’s your ENS talking. Pay attention! Your gut can give you important information about what does and does not work for you.

COUGH NO MORE

Salus cough formulas originate from the healing plants of the Alps. Made by one of the oldest and most trusted herb companies in the world, the certified organic herbs are nourished and grown with the intent to increase health and well-being for you and yours.

For infants and toddlers, Honey with Fennel Cough Syrup is ideal for persistent coughs. This unique blend is also an easy remedy for upset tummies – for the young and the old. With a yummy licorice taste, your kids will love it!

Hawaiian health secrets

For more than 2000 years, Polynesians have recognized the strength of this “stinky fruit”, traditionally using it to help alleviate inflammatory conditions like joint and digestive problems. This tropical juice is also traditionally used to elevate the speed in which the body repairs skin damaged from cuts, wounds or burns. You can drink it fresh or fermented, whatever suits your taste buds. The traditional way of taking noni is fermented, popular for its milder flavour. Flora also offers a fresh juice, ideal for those who must avoid fermented foods due to dietary restrictions.

One mineral. Multiple benefits.

Given the numerous common health annoyances that many people endure, it is a mystery why more people are not taking magnesium every day. Painful cramping for athletes and menstruating women, headaches, and sleepless nights may be signs of magnesium deficiency. Magnesium helps maintain normal muscle and nerve function, keeps heart rhythm steady, supports a healthy immune system, and keeps bones strong and healthy. Preservative-free Salus Magnesium Liquid contains highly absorbable magnesium citrate and gluconate. Absorption is further enhanced by natural acids in the fruit juice base. Just one 10 ml serving (125 mg of usable elemental magnesium) each day can make a world of difference. Get on the magnesium train!
