Willner Summer Sale 2021

Page 68 The Willner Window: Catalog & Newsletter, Summer 2021 Since 1911 • Willner Chemists: The Nutritional Supplement Professionals Liver Support will decrease how the liver breaks down naturally occurring cortisone, thereby systemically decreasing inflammation. It will also decrease hepatic portal congestion that occurs from too much fat in the diet (Red Root) and thereby decrease sticky blood and lymph. It can help decrease hemorrhoids, pelvic congestion, fatty sticky stools and all the symptoms that result from thick blood. As a treatment for liver deficiency or liver stagnation, Liver Support can facilitate a healing on a constitutional level for an array of symptoms including, PMS, headaches, indigestion, hayfever, poor fat and protein digestion, fatigue or chronic fatigue syndrome. Leaky gut syndrome is a combination of events. Liver Support can help by increasing gut digestive acidity and antibacterial function to help remove some causative factors behind leaky gut syndrome. Contra-indications and Cautions: • Pregnancy • Alcohol or drug addiction (be careful as an acute healing crisis can manifest). Do not use if already acutely detoxing, especially if acutely detoxing from addictions such as alcohol. Be careful if liver enzymes are elevated by going slowly. Aggressive detoxification and herbal liver stimulants may increase the rate of metabolic breakdown of some medications, especially those medications that are broken down in the liver. This can create an undesirable situation where medications are not working (i.e. beta blockers, anti- depressants) and detoxification would be contraindicated. One may need to adjust the dosage of such medications while working with their health care professional. Lobelia 1:2 Medically, Lobelia is known as a parasympathomimetic.

Product Reference Guide: Willner Chemists Phyto-Tech™ Herbal Supplements Garcinia Cambogia and Glucomannan Reduce Weight & Improve Body Composition O ne of the factors in kidney disease is poor circulation in calcified arteries, hampering kidney filtering function. Playing off earlier studies that found magnesium slowed arterial calcification, doctors reviewed 22 studies covering over 200,000 chronic kidney disease patients. Overall, those with higher—but not abnormally high—levels of magnesium were less likely to die from any cause compared to those with lower magnesium levels. Doctors found a direct link: for each 0.1 millimoles- per-liter of blood (mmol/L) increase in magnesium, chances for heart and circulatory adverse events, including dying, decreased by 15 percent. Doctors noted the optimum range for magnesium appears to be between 1.15 and 1.27 mmol/L. Reference: Clinical Nutrition; 2020, 015, Published Online Magnesium in Chronic Kidney Disease I n an effort to find effective treatments for overweight and obesity, doctors looked to Southeast Asia for the flowering plant, garcinia cambogia (GC), and a to natural fiber supplement, glucomannan (GNN). This study covered 136 adults aged at least 18, with a body-mass index score greater than 25, who had type 2 diabetes, unbalanced lipids, and/or high blood pressure. Participants took 500 mg each of GC and GNN, twice per day. Doctors prescribed a Mediterranean type diet, and encouraged participants to drink lots of water. Beginning at three months, and continuing through six months, GC and GNN reduced weight, abdominal fat, and fat mass, and increased the basic metabolic rate. Triglycerides, glucose, and cholesterol levels also improved.
