Omega-3 fatty acids are essential cornerstones of human nutrition. They are deemed "essential" because we need them for proper health-much like certain vitamins and minerals but cannot produce them on our own. We must therefore consume these fats through diet or supplementation. Since omega-3 fatty acids are known to benefit cardiovascular health, support healthy brain function and cognition, and have also been proven to maintain a healthy inflammatory response, achieving the proper balance of omega-3s has become an important health strategy, requiring supplementation for most people. The American Heart Association recommends that those concerned about blood lipids take up to 4 g of omega-3 fatty acids per day.
Orthomega® 820 is a high-concentration fish oil sourced from waters off the Chilean coast. As the world’s least industrialized coastline, these cold, fresh waters provide the cleanest, most sustainable source of fish in the world. Orthomega® provides 820 mg of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA)and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) as well as 50 mg of docosapentaemoic acid (DPA) per soft gel as natural triglycerides, the preferred form with superior absorption. To stabilize the oil, vitamin E (as mixed tocopherols) and rosemary extract are used to ensure maximum purity and freshness. This exclusive fish oil is purified, vacuum distilled, and independently tested to ensure heavy metals, pesticides and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are removed to undetectable levels. With over 10,000 published studies in the last three decades, EPA and DHA from fish oil are among the most researched natural ingredients available and have a long history of safety and efficacy.

Liposomal Vitamin C
$39.49
Liposomal Vitamin C provides this key foundational nutrient formulated with liposomal technology. Liposomes are spheres made of phospholipids—the primary building blocks of cell membranes. Owing to this structure, liposomes bond easily with cell membranes to facilitate intracellular delivery of their nutrient cargo. Thanks to this enhanced delivery and absorption, nutrients delivered in liposomal form offer superior absorption and bioavailability.
Each 5 mL serving (approximately 1 teaspoon) of this lemon flavored formula provides 1000 mg vitamin C, as sodium ascorbate. The 130 mg sodium per serving helps to further facilitate absorption of vitamin C.
Recommended Use: As a dietary supplement, take 5 mL (approx. 1 teaspoon) and hold in mouth for 30 seconds before swallowing, or as directed by your health care practitioner.
Benefits of Vitamin C supplementation include support for the immune system, adrenal function, collagen formation for healthy skin, and cardiovascular health. Its antioxidant function is a hallmark of this nutrient. Vitamin C is a potent neutralizer of free radicals and helps to recycle vitamin E and glutathione. Benefits of Liposomal Delivery• Superior absorption and intracellular delivery of nutrients• Phospholipid structure allows for effective delivery of compounds with different solubilities carried within the same particle (e.g., water- and lipid-soluble compounds)• Penetrates the blood-brain barrier• Survives the acidic environment of the stomach, ensuring intestinal uptake and delivery to the lymphatic system• Convenient for those who prefer to swallow fewer pills; also allow for easy dosing

Ursolic Acid / Rosemary
$32.50
$39.00
Ursolic Acid is from ROSEMARY
Other products with Rosemary and how to substitute:
Clear Inflam - take 3-6 per day, split dosages
BAM - take 1 tablespoon of this powder mixed into your shake/smoothie
Rosemary Essential Oil - take 2 drops orally, under tongue, 2-3 times per day
Ursolic acid supplement comes in vegetarian capsules and provides significant benefits for your overall well-being. In studies, it has demonstrated anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties and shown to inhibit some viruses. The Rosemary leaves contain valuable substances known as oleanolic acid, amygdalin and ursolic acid. They also contain pentacyclic triterpene, which is found in small portions in rosemary, apple peel, sage and holy basil (tulsi).
Ursolic acid and its isomer, oleanolic acid, are chemically almost identical. Their structure only differs in the position within the methyl group (CH3). However, both offer potentially vital health benefits, according to research. It has been studied for preventing the development of cancer, inhibiting existing tumor cells, and protecting against the side-effects of chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
Ursolic acid and its isomer, oleanic acid, are chemically almost identical, their structure differing only in the position of a methyl group (CH3). Both offer potentially important health benefits, such as preventing the progression of cancer, inhibiting existing tumor cells, protecting against the side-effects of chemotherapy and radiotherapy, and exerting anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and antiviral effects.
Ursolic acid has traditionally been used for the skin as it repairs damaged tissues in the cutaneous barrier and scalp. It also protects the skin from photo-aging and is a potent inhibitor of elastase, an enzyme present in the skin which attacks structural proteins. With its multiple properties, ursolic acid is therefore an important addition to the range of phytoceutical resources available for anti-aging in general.
Ursolic acid has anti-infection and anti-viral effects, more specifically against the herpes virus, adenovirus, enterovirus and the Coronavirus/SARS through inhibition of the enzyme, Cathepsin L.
Recent studies on rats have even indicated that its inhibitory power (reversible) on human leukocyte elastase may have potential in the treatment of inflammatory lung diseases such as H1N1 and SARS virus infections.
Ursolic acid also has anti-microbial and immune-stimulant effects particularly in the treatment of tuberculosis.
It may also offer potential in treating Alzheimer's disease by inhibiting the enzyme acetylcholinesterase, so reducing enzymatic degradation of acetylcholine and improving cholinergic transmission.
What do studies show about Ursolic Acid supplementation?
Ursolic acid may help stem sarcopenia (muscle loss associated with aging and certain diseases). Animal studies have demonstrated its ability to increase muscle volume and power and, according to researchers, to reduce body fat, fasting blood glucose, and cholesterol and triglyceride levels, by acting on two key hormones: IFG-1 and insulin.
So effective is ursolic acid in humans that it is one of the most popular supplements with American bodybuilders. By regulating certain RNA messengers, it may also help maintain muscle mass in individuals following low calorie diets. Ursolic acid is a powerful and natural anti-inflammatory which inhibits human leukocyte elastase (HLE) as well as 5-lipoxygenase and cyclooxygenase-2 activity and prostaglandin synthesis. It also has antioxidant and anti-MMP-9 (matrix metalloproteinase-9) effects. In addition, it offers important cancer protection, acting on a number of parameters:
In inflammatory pathways, it prevents COX 2 expression by cancer cells, and reduces differentiation of Th-17 cells and production of pro-inflammatory cytokines (interleukin IL17).
It protects against the side-effects associated with chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
It induces apoptosis (programd cell death) in melanoma cells in culture, and inhibits both the spread of HT-29 human colon adenocarcinoma cells and the growth of HEC108 endometrial cancer cells through the caspase-3 pathway.
It neutralizes NF-kB, preventing initialised cells from reproducing and triggering the death of damaged cells. As a result of this effect on NF-kB, ursolic acid activates resting macrophages and thus helps destroy tumor cells at the earliest stages of cancer.

herbal support for parasitic infections
Berberis vulgaris has been used for centuries for lung, spleen, and liver diseases. Berberis is used for infections including diseases of the urinary tract. Traditional uses include liver and gallbladder disease, jaundice, splenopathv, indigestion, diarrhea, tuberculosis, renal disease, urinary tract disorders, gout, rheumatism, arthritis, lumbago, malaria, and leishmaniasis.
Grapefruit Seed extract has been shown to be effective in the treatment of various bowel pathogens. Specifically Candida and Geotrichum yeast species, as well as hemolytic coliform bacteria have been highly sensitive to Grapefruit seed extract. It had no adverse affects on normal fecal organisms. Patients taking grapefruit seed extract noticed improvement in constipation, flatulence and abdominal discomfort.
Juglans nigra (Black Walnut Hull) has a long traditional use as a vermifuge. It has been successfully employed in the treatment of flukes and many intestinal worms.
Origanum vulgare (Oregano) has often been used to treat respiratory disorders and complaints such as coughs and bronchial congestion, as well as urinary infections/disorders and rheumatoid arthritis. Present day use is often as an antifungal for conditions such a candidiasis.
Artemesia anuua (Wormwood) extract possesses antimicrobial effects and is used in the treatment of malaria (specifically Plasmodium Falciparum). Artemesia is often used to treat loss of appetite, dyspepsia, liver/gallbladder complaints, intestinal bloating, worm infestations, intermittent fevers, gastric insufficiency, gastritis, stomachache, and intestinal atony.
Leptandra virginica (Culver's root) is used as a cathartic and emetic. It promotes the secretion of bile, cleansing of the bowel, and detoxifying the liver, gallbladder and gastrointestinal tract.
Violet leaves are a mild laxative and purgative-Extracts made from the flowers are used as an expectorant and narcotic property, although they are much less active as a purgative.
Ulmusfulra (Slippery Elm) is a demulcent and emollient whose main use is in making poultices. It is also taken internally for soothing coughs and healing the gastrointestinal and urinary tracts.
Rhamnus purshiamus (Cascara sagrada) is a mild yet thorough laxative which stimulates the large intestine. It is also used as a stomach tonic in promoting digestion and appetite.
Hydrastis canadinsis (Golden seal) is a tonic, laxative alternative and detergent. It is also an astringent and is effective against hemorrhoids, external sores and nose bleeds.
Quassia is used for fever, dyspepsia, blennorrhagia, stomaches, liver disorders, malaria and as a tonic. Also insecticidal, as a laxative and appetite stimulant. It is used in cases of anorexia nervosa, is effective in chronic diseases of the liver and has anti-malaria activity.
Clove can be used as a topical antiseptic and anesthetic. Other uses for clove, such as premature ejaculation, dry socket, and fever reduction lack reliable human clinical evidence.
Garlic has been used for centuries for the treatment of many infections. Recently, garlic was shown to be antibacterial (1% of penicillin strength), anti-fungal and antiviral. Some organisms for which garlic has been shown to be effective are: Bacillus cereus, Bacillus subtilis, Mycobacterium smegmatis, Steptocyces griseus, Staphylococcus aureus, Lactobacillus plantarium, Cryptococcal meningitis, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Xanthomonas maltophilia, herpes simplex virus type 1 and 2, parainfluenza virus type 3, vaccinia virus, vesicular stomatitis virus, and human rhinovirus type 2. It also has been shown to have many great cardiovascular effects like inhibiting plaque build up and to reduce fat accumulation in arterial cells. Cholesterol production in the liver is reduced with garlic, through its inactivation of thiol groups in the enzyme HMG CoA reductase.
Plantain stops the intestinal lining from attracting bacteria that are thought to contribute to inflammatory episodes in IBD.
Pumpkin Seed is a rich source of Beta-sitosterol. Administration of pumpkin seed extract/oils or the purified beta-sitosterol may be beneficial for prostate health. Overall prostate scores, urine flow and prostate volume improved during therapy in some studies.
