Magnesium is a key mineral for your nervous system, heart, and overall circulation. It is required in your heart to support the heart muscle’s normal contraction-relaxation pumping actions. Your heart also requires a tremendous amount of energy to work properly, and magnesium is needed in the final step of all energy synthesis (ATP production). Your...

Coenzyme Q10 is essential for energy production in your body; without enough Q10 you simply can not make energy at an optimal rate. Your heart requires huge amounts of energy to run properly. When you are fatigued, your nerves and heart do not have the energy they need to function in an optimal way, pointing your health in the wear and tear direction.*...

No simple fix or miracle weight loss pill will ever address the complexity of leptin in your metabolism. Beware of false marketing for any one product making this claim (Many leptin products are out there, all of them riding on our coattails, as we are the original leptin experts). On the other hand, there are many nutrients that beneficially impact...

Leptin orchestrates blood sugar and insulin metabolism through central mechanisms in your nervous system and by communicating to your pancreas to stop insulin production at the end of a meal. When these systems are running smoothly they help you maintain a healthy weight and stay on a healthy weight management program. Key nutrients in Cinnamon Plus™ and...

The health of your cell membranes is critically important to your rate of aging, overall structural integrity, proper metabolism, cardiovascular health, and ability to quench inflammatory wear and tear. Cell membranes are composed mostly of fatty acids that are held together by phospholipids. Phospholipids align fatty acids into the cell membrane bi-layer...

Everyone needs some type of stability in their life. Food, clothing, reproduction, and shelter are core survival principles that relate to all mammals. All mammals have a subconscious brain limbic system that takes these issues very seriously. In the machine language of the subconscious brain stability is all that matters -- and the feeling that things...

Getting enough Omega 3 oils in your diet or through supplementation is essential to your eye and brain health, but also lung, muscle, and gut health.

Omega 3 fatty acids, especially DHA, are known to help metabolism of fat for many different reasons. They are one of the best, as well as most basic nutrients, for the support of healthy weight management. A new study shows that they can positively influence gene signaling in individuals prone to weight gain.

The lack of omega 3 fatty acids, such as DHA, in the diets of pregnant mothers has been associated with poor neurologic function and mood issues in the offspring. Researchers have now pinpointed in an animal study, that a lack of omega 3 fatty acids at this critical time of development, causes brain plasticity to form incorrectly in key areas of the brain...

The loss of muscle during aging is invariably associated with a decline in health. A new study with older adults has found that supplementation with fish oil (DHA and EPA) can improve the synthesis of muscle protein.

There are a lot of great anti-aging and metabolism boosting nutrients: DHA, pantethine, acetyl-l-carnitine, carnosine, r-alpha lipoic acid, grape seed extracts – the list goes on and on. In fact, most nutrients help cells function better and thus live longer. So, why is resveratrol vying for the position as King of the anti-aging nutrients – with a potent...

I have been touting the extreme cardiovascular health benefits of omega 3 oils for cardiovascular health, especially DHA, for over two decades. It is now official, mainstream researchers proclaim that these oils “show great promise in primary and, particularly in secondary prevention of cardiovascular diseases."
