Since 1911 • Willner Chemists: The Nutritional Supplement Professionals Who might benefit from this herbal supplements? • Valerian has a long history of use as a sedative and sleep aid. Many consider Valerian to be the strongest western herbal central nervous system sedative. Valerian will quiet a busy mind. It can promote sleep for those who cannot fall asleep and helps those who wake up in the middle of the night. Repeat the doses as needed within a night to facilitate sleep. The liquid is significantly faster in action compared to a tablet or capsule, which must be digested before it can be absorbed, so liquids are preferred for fastest action. It will help calm one down when going through difficult emotional and mental times or when in therapy and in turmoil. Taking Valerian during the day can make one feel tired, sedated or a little out of it. Thus, caution is advised. This can sometimes be controlled my altering the dosage. Many consider valerian to be the strongest western herbal painkiller as well. It will reduce pain in the musculo-skeletal system (i.e. muscle and joint pain from injury, accidents, work outs, surgeries). Valerian may be enough to control pain after relatively mild surgeries or dental procedures. It is also a smooth muscle relaxer for pain from menstrual cramps, digestive cramps, gall bladder and kidney stones. According to herbalists, Valerian will not remove all pain like a pharmaceutical pain killer but will instead, reduce the percent of pain recognition by 10-50%. Contrary to popular belief, Valium was not derived from Valerian. They sound alike and are used for similar conditions, but are not related. The generally acknowledged active constituent, especially for purposes of standardization, is valerenic acid. Ingredients: Phyto-Tech™ Valerian Root 1:2 contains Fresh Valerian Root, 500 mg/ml.

Zincimmune Plus Zinc - Elderberry - Umckaloabo - Echinacea Alcohol Free A blend of immune-enhancing herbal supplements and zinc, specifically chosen for their effectiveness against cold and flu infections. 4 Fluid Ounces - Product Code: 66271 Who would benefit from this supplement? • Anyone needing a quick boost to their immune system, especially at the first sign of a cold or flu. Even though cold and flu are different, and caused by a different virus, most people do not know for sure which they have at the early stages. For this reason, the nutrients and herbs in this formulation have been chosen to cover both. Elderberry, for example, is thought to be more effective for the flu and Umckaloabo,, or Pellargonium, is known for its effect against colds. Zinc is essential to proper immune system function and Echinacea is well known for its traditional value. Ingredients: Phyto-Tech™ ZincImmune Plus is a pleasant tasting liquid that contains the following, per teaspoon (5 ml): Zinc, 15 mg (as Zinc Glycinate); Elderberry Fruit, Organic, 350 mg; Umckaloabo Root (Pellargonium), 100 mg; Echinacea angustifolia Root, Organic, 50 mg; Stevia Leaf Extract, 0.5 mg. Other ingredients: Vegetable Glycerine, Deionized Water, Organic Elderberry and Blackberry Juice Concentrates, Citric Acid. Indications: Both colds and flu (influenza) are viral diseases. Colds are more of a respiratory infection while the flu is more of a systemic condition, characterized predominately by fever, malaise and muscle aches. Conventional medicine does not really offer an effective cure or preventive treatment for colds and flu. There is a vaccine, but it’s effectiveness has been limited. These viruses are around us most of the time, and we are most susceptible in the summer. Interestingly enough, not everyone succumbs. Why is that? Speculation centers on the strength of an individuals immune system. Some of us seem better able to withstand the virus than others. One logical approach to prevention, therefor, relies on strengthening our immune system, both to avoid catching the cold or flu, and to shorten the duration and reduce the severity if we do catch it. This is where immune-enhancing herbs, vitamins and minerals come into play. ZincImmune Plus is one supplement designed to satisfy that need. Description: The synergistic blend of immune-enhancing herbs and minerals in ZincImmune targets those immune functions related to colds and flu, as follows: Details and References: Important Notice: The information given here is designed to help you make informed decisions about your health, and the proper use of dietary supplements.
