Ethnoscience Organic Maca 250gr / 8.8oz
$ 13.58
Visit product page →Maca is a nutritionally dense perennial tuber that absorbs and stores nutrients. Maca is native to the Peruvian Andes and belongs to the cruciferous vegetable family. It is typically grown as a root vegetable in harsh weather conditions and high altitudes.
What are its benefits?
Maca is sometimes referred to as “Peruvian ginseng” and was highly revered by the Inca for its wonderfully rich nutritional properties. Maca is an adaptogen, known for its ability to increase energy, build physical strength, improve mood, reduce anxiety and heighten libido. It is rich in essential minerals, EFAs, amino acids and polysaccharides. Maca root contains over 55 naturally occurring, beneficial phyto-chemicals that work in tandem with the body’s natural rhythms. Maca root helps rebuild weak immune systems, re-mineralize poorly nourished bodies and increase energy and endurance.
What are the colour differences?
There are several ecospecies of maca available. Although they share a similar nutritional profile, studies have shown that varieties within the species have distinct potential benefits:
• Red Maca is known for its higher concentration of antioxidant properties and for better prostate health.
• Yellow Maca is known for its beneficial effects on female fertility and menopausal symptoms. Yellow maca root is the maca most used by Peruvians in daily life.
• Black Maca is known for its positive effects on memory, latent learning and spermatogenesis.
• Raw Maca: Make no mistake – all of our macas (not including Gelatinized and Premium) are raw. Our “Raw Maca” option is simply a blend of red, yellow, and black maca. This option is for those who wish for a less directed, wider spectrum of benefits. Approximate % breakdown is as follows: Yellow Maca root: 70%, Red Maca root: 20%, Black Maca root: 10%.
• Premium Maca is a blend of yellow, red, and black macas that has been purified and sterilized with Steam and Vacuum – a 100% natural method of removing pathogens and reducing germ charge in natural products. Used with our Premium Maca, this unique and efficient solution is able to provide us with the purest Maca product in the world. Each Maca colour has different properties.
• Gelatinized Maca is known to be highly digestible and more soluble than regular maca. Due to gelatinization, the long chains of starches are broken down, enhancing the concentration of the maca’s powerful main ingredients.
* Gelatinization is an extrusion process that ruptures the maca starch chains, to make it easier to assimilate. In other words, starches are broken down and made more readily absorbable in a gel form. It mixes easier into food and beverages, and many find it easier to digest. The thermal process involves a quick application of heat (seconds), and does not degrade any of the nutritional components of the raw maca powder. On the contrary, it concentrates them. It is important to note that gelatinization is achieved without altering any of the maca’s active ingredients.Gelatinized maca may indeed be more concentrated but it must be understood that we are not talking about an increase in concentration to be equal to that of an extract. Some websites selling gelatinized maca are claiming that their product is actually up to 6 times more concentrated then regular maca. Unfortunately, this cannot be so. Such a value can only be obtained in extract ( spray dried ) or in freeze dried form and gelatinized maca is neither. The error made is in believing that the starch in gelatinized maca has been removed and hence it becomes more concentrated. Starches are broken down and made more readily absorbable in gel form but they are not removed. As such, a 6 times increase in concentration as some websites claim cannot be possible. Remember, gelatinized maca is a whole food with its starch chains ruptured to make it easier to assimilate…the starches are not removed.

ASSISTS WITH:
- Providing EFAs*
- Increasing energy, stamina, metabolism*
- Skin irritations*
Flax-O-Mega® capsules are cold-pressed from certified organic flax seeds to provide the Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs) required for optimal health.
Omega-3 and omega-6 EFAs are necessary for the normal functioning of every cell, tissue, gland and organ. Since the body cannot make EFAs on its own, they must come from foods or dietary supplements.
Because omega-6s are found in a wide variety of foods, most people consume adequate amounts of this essential fatty acid. In fact, many people overindulge in foods that contain omega-6s. These items include polyunsaturated vegetable oils made from safflower, sunflower, soybean, sesame, pumpkin, wheat germ, corn, cottonseed, walnut and wheat germ. Seeds and nuts are rich in omega-6s and so are most meats, fast foods and snack foods.
Omega-3s are more likely to be lacking in the average person’s diet, because there are relatively few foods that contain these important foundational fats. Dietary sources include oils from fish as well as some plants and nuts. Omega-3s are found in oil from halibut, salmon, sardines, mackerel and tuna. Vegetable oils, such as soybean, olive, canola and flax seed contain alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), a type of omega-3 fatty acid.
Flax oil is one of the richest sources of omega-3s. It is also less expensive and does not contain environmental toxins as is often the case with fish.
The effects of Omega-3 deficiency include:
- Low energy
- Weakness
- Impaired vision and learning
- Poor motor coordination
- Tingling sensation in limbs
- Behavioral changes
- High serum triglycerides; high blood pressure; sticky platelets (tendency to form clots in blood vessels)
- Water retention (edema) due to inflammation and kidney deterioration
- Problems associated with skin, joints, digestion, connective tissue, kidneys and other glands, organs and tissues
- Weakened immune response
- Mental deterioration
- Low metabolic rate
- Weight gain
USEFUL FOR:
- Exerting a positive influence on skin irritations.*
- Increasing energy levels, metabolism and stamina.*
- Providing required levels of omega-3 EFAs, including during pregnancy and nursing for the optimal growth and development of children.*

- Helps to enhance cognitive function and memory in an aging population.
- Also supports peripheral circulation, which is blood flow that reaches the upper and lower extremities of the body and the surface of the skin.
Ginkgo biloba seems to improve blood circulation, which helps the brain, eyes, ears, and legs function better. It may slow down Alzheimer’s disease by interfering with changes in the brain that interfere with thinking. By improving blood circulation, Ginkgo Biloba improves conditions including memory loss, headache, ringing in the ears,vertigo, difficulty concentrating, mood disturbances, and hearing disorders. Some people use it for other problems related to poor blood flow in the body, including leg pain when walking (claudication), and Raynaud’s syndrome (a painful response to cold, especially in the fingers and toes).

Wheatgrass Benefits
- Wheatgrass is consumed to improve the hemoglobin concentration of blood as it is rich in healthy nutrients and enzymes. It reduces the inflammation, bleeding tendency and physical pain syndromes. Since wheatgrass contain high concentration of chlorophyll, the oxygen absorbing and retaining capacity of your blood increases that helps in managing the symptoms of anemia.
- When consumed in optimal doses, it helps in the detoxification of liver and blood to eliminate and excrete chemicals, toxins and endogenous waste products that are produced as a result of metabolic processes.
- It is also used to prevent the physical signs of aging like graying of hair due to high concentration of vitamin C and other anti-oxidants. In addition, wheatgrass is also helpful in relieving dandruff and repair of damaged hair.
- The high anti-oxidant concentration and effect on bodily enzymes is helpful in improving the urinary tract infections and other disorders like renal stones, infection of prostate or even benign prostate hypertrophy.
- Wheatgrass is often consumed by individuals to cleanse skin and detoxify blood to relieve acne. It has proven efficacy in delaying the aging signs of skin (sagging of skin, wrinkling or appearance of eye- bags) with its anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
- Human body is exposed to a lot of carcinogens or chemicals/toxins that tend to alter the genetic make-up of the cells. Consuming moderate amounts of wheatgrass is helpful in neutralizing the chemicals that may lead to cancer. If you are exposed to second-hand or third-had smoking (or you are an active smoker or alcoholic or are exposed to other chemicals), you must consider taking wheatgrass on regular basis.
- The high quality nutrients like vitamins and minerals exert health promoting effects in the women who have abnormal cycles due to weakness or malnutrition. In addition, regular supplementation helps in detoxification of the body and removal of hormonal breakdown products that may affect fertility and reproductive capacity.
- In addition to above listed benefits, wheatgrass is also used to treat a variety of respiratory disorders and other ailments like fever, sore-throat, arthritis, stomach and gastric discomfort and similar conditions. In addition, wheatgrass is also helpful in controlling blood pressure and thereby decrease the risk of cardiac mortality. Furthermore, wheatgrass can help with weight loss when consumed in the raw, dehydrated form.

Every cell, tissue, gland and organ is dependent upon the presence of Essential Fatty Acids or EFAs. Your body needs these foundational fats, but cannot make them on its own. They must be obtained through dietary sources. Unfortunately, the modern Western diet is often quite deficient in omega-3 EFAs.
EFAs manufacture and repair cell membranes, enabling the cells to properly assimilate nutrients from our foods and efficiently expel toxins and waste products. A deficiency, or even an imbalance, of EFAs can be linked to a decline in the optimal functioning of the body’s natural processes.
Udo’s Oil™ 3·6·9 Blend supplies omega-3 and omega-6 EFAs in a 2:1 ratio. It is a special formulation of natural, unrefined oils from fresh, certified organic flax, sunflower, sesame and evening primrose seeds as well as oils from coconut, rice and bran.
This formula is the result of many years of scientific study by world-renowned nutrition expert Udo Erasmus, author of the best-selling book, Fats That Heal Fats That Kill. Udo’s research over the years indicates that the best results come consistently from oils blended to be richer in omega-3 than omega-6, in a 2:1 ratio.* Udo’s oil contains the ideal ratio, while fish oils and pure flax oils do not.
Why you need a 2:1 ratio: The key to health from fats lies in ingesting the essential ones in the proper ratio.* This isn’t usually achieved because the average Western diet is much too high in omega-6 and dangerously low in omega-3.
Omega-3 ALA (alpha linolenic acid) and omega-6 LA (linoleic acid) are Essential Fatty Acids the body requires for maintaining good health.* Flax seed oil is the richest known source of omega-3 ALA, which helps promote healthy cholesterol and triglyceride levels.*(1)
Udo’s Oil™ 3-6-9 Blend is made with health in mind, unlike supermarket cooking oils, which are highly processed for long shelf life. All ingredients in Udo’s oils are grown and processed without chemicals. For optimum freshness, these products are sealed in non-reactive recyclable amber glass bottles to avoid damage from heat and light.
USEFUL FOR:
- Healthy cellular function*
- Improving circulation and immune function*
- Optimizing glandular function*
- Increasing oxygen uptake and utilization*
- Heightening reflexes and concentration*
- Promoting sleep and elevating mood*
- Strengthening the immune system and fat-burning ability*
- Helping dry, scaly skin become clearer and smoother*
- Maintaining healthy cholesterol and triglyceride levels*
- Improving energy, stamina and performance*
RESEARCH FINDINGS:
Numerous scientific studies have shown that, as part of a healthy diet, EFAs help:
- Support the immune system*(2)
- Support the body’s weight management ability*(1)
- Promote and maintain good digestion*(3)
- Support normal joint function*(4)
- Promote and maintain cardiovascular health*(5)
- Support the body’s response to stress*(6)
EFAs also contribute to skin health, helping dry, scaly skin become clearer, smoother and softer.*(7)
Because large amounts of EFAs are needed for normal development and function of the brain and nervous system, a deficiency of EFAs can lead to problems like mood swings, proneness to stress, and a decline in memory, learning skills and concentration.*(8)

Flora Udo's Oil™ DHA 3·6·9 Blend
On sale $ 14.99 $ 13.49
Visit product page →-
Vegetarian-Sourced DHA Blended with Udo’s Oil™
Made with DHA sourced from unrefined algae, not fish,Udo’s Oil™ DHA 3•6•9 Blend offers you vitally important omega-3 fatty acids made from completely sustainable plant sources. A renewable resource, cultivated tank-grown algae has no detrimental impact on worldwide fisheries. We get our DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) the same way fish get theirs—directly from algae. Because it’s tank grown-algal sourced, this DHA product is free from ocean-borne contaminants.
DHA supports the proper functioning of our brains as adults, and supports the normal physical development of the brain, eyes and nerves, primarily in children under two years of age. One serving of Udo’s DHA Oil Blend provides 100 milligrams of DHA omega-3 fatty acids.
Udo’s Oil™ DHA 3•6•9 Blend combines DHA-rich algae with a special formulation of natural, unrefined oils from fresh organic flax, sunflower, sesame and evening primrose seeds as well as oils from coconut and rice bran. DHA is one of the most important long-chain fatty acids in the omega-3 family: the majority of the fatty acids found in the brain and in the retina are in the form of DHA. The body can convert DHA to EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid), an omega-3 fatty acid that is a precursor to the production of prostaglandins which help promote good health.
Benefits

Chlorella as a Powerful Detoxification Tool
One of the most exciting nutritional resources available today to help your body naturally fight environmental pollution is a whole-food based supplement called chlorella. Chlorella is actually one of the most widely used supplements in Japan, where over 10 million people use it regularly. The Japanese use of chlorella is more widespread than the North American use of vitamin C, our most popular supplement.
Do the Japanese know something we don't?
One of the reasons the Japanese value chlorella so highly is its natural detoxification abilities. Chlorella is a "green food," a single-celled, micro-algae that is about two to ten microns in size. It's very small. It is this small size combined with its unique properties that make it such a useful detoxification tool. Its molecular structure, allows it to bond to metals, chemicals and some pesticides.
When chlorella is taken into your body, its natural action will bind it to lingering heavy metals, chemicals and pesticides found in your digestive tract, which is your body's pathway to your bloodstream where these harmful toxins are delivered and deposited into your body's cells.
So chlorella first and foremost will help your body eliminate unwanted metals and toxins. But it does more than that.
Chlorella is uniquely designed to not bind to the minerals your body naturally needs to function optimally. It does not bind to beneficial minerals like calcium, magnesium, or zinc. It's almost as if chlorella knows which metals belong in your body and which chemicals need to be removed. Supplementing with chlorella is like unleashing a tiny army inside your body to fight the battle of removing toxins from your tissues and ushering them back outside your body where they belong.
The History of Chlorella
Chlorella is one of the most widely studied food supplements in the world. Aside from being the subject of medical research in the USA, USSR, Germany, Japan, France, England and Israel, chlorella has been extensively studied as a food source since it is made up of a whopping 50 percent protein and is considered a complete amino acid-based food.
Even NASA has studied using chlorella as the one of first whole foods in space on the international space station!
Studies in Japan have shown chlorella may help reduce body fat percentage and may be useful in fighting obesity and weight related diabetes. It may also help reduce both cholesterol and hypertension. Chlorella's cleansing action on your bowel and other elimination channels, as well as its protection of your liver, also helps promote clean blood. And clean blood helps assure metabolic waste get efficiently carried away from your tissues.
Chlorella is such a powerful detoxifier because it is rich in chlorophyll, which is known to:
- Aid you in processing more oxygen
- Cleanse key elimination systems like your bowel, liver, and blood
- Help purify your blood and clean away toxins
- Aid you in promoting optimal blood pressure
- Support elimination of molds in your body
- Help neutralize bad air you might breathe in
- Promote growth and repair of your tissues
Chlorella is actually very useful even beyond detoxification, and its range of health benefits includes:
- Boosting your immune system
- Improving your digestion, especially if constipation is a problem
- Providing B vitamins from an animal source
- Enhancing your ability to focus and concentrate
- Increasing your energy levels
- Balancing your body's pH
- Normalizing your blood sugar and blood pressure
- Reducing your cancer risk
- Freshening your breath
A three-year double-blind metal detoxification study with over 350 people participating was undertaken at a Russian metal foundry, where more than 20 natural compounds were used in trials to remove heavy metals from people who had been exposed at very high levels to four main metals -- antimony, lead, cadmium and arsenic.
What were the results of testing chlorella as a heavy metal detoxification agent? The Russian trial using Broken Cell Wall chlorella combined with cilantro eliminated ALL heavy metals, including mercury! With no reported side-effects! In fact, the heavy metal binding power of chlorella was first discovered in the mining industry. Mixed with water, they pumped chlorella into mine shafts to collect the residual metals after bulk mining was completed.
