Zinc Lozenges

60 vegetarian lozenges Item Catalog Number: 01561

Zinc is a mineral that stimulates the activity of approximately 300 enzymes, which are substances that promote biochemical reactions in your body.1,2 These reactions are essential for the formation of superoxide dismutase, one of the body’s most important free radical scavengers. Zinc also promotes immune function,3-6 taste sensitivity,7-9 protein and DNA synthesis,1,10,11 insulin production,12,13 reproductive organ development and sperm motility.14-16 Zinc also supports normal growth and development during pregnancy, childhood, and adolescence.17-19

Maintaining adequate levels of zinc is equally important to aging adults.20-22 As people grow older, their immune function declines, partly due to the decreasing size and function of the thymus gland. Evidence suggests that zinc may help to maintain healthy function of the thymus gland in elderly people. 23 Scientists have also found evidence that a zinc deficiency in elderly adults may contribute to impaired immune function with aging, or immunosenescence.24-26 These findings suggest that zinc plays a critical role in supporting healthy immune function with age.

Zinc Lozenges provide premium-grade zinc as gluconate and oxide in a pleasant citrus-orange naturally flavored tablet.

  • The benefits of ReMag pico-ionic liquid magnesium in a lotion.
  • Daily ReHydrator and cosmetic.
  • The perfect solution for those who would rather not take ReMag orally.
  • Convenient pump dispenser
  • Minerals are water’s guidance system in the body. They attract water into the cells and help it stay there to do its work before it’s eliminated from the body, carrying away cellular toxins.

And of all the minerals, magnesium is the master mineral. As an electrolyte, it tells water where to go in the body. One example of this is how lack of magnesium can lead to swelling and edema, which is an over-concentration of water in some areas of the body. Magnesium supplementation is an excellent way to support hydration in the skin. According to this study out of Kiel, Germany, bathing in a magnesium-rich Dead Sea salt solution improved skin barrier function and enhanced skin hydration in atopic dry skin. The study concluded that “Magnesium salts are known to bind water, influence epidermal proliferation, and differentiation, and enhance permeability barrier repair”, all key to healthy, beautiful-looking skin!

#1 - Magnesium Saturation
Although absorption rates vary, magnesium lotion tends to have one of the highest rates of absorption of any form of this mineral. In a study on the cosmetic application of a 31% magnesium chloride solution, it was found that after 12 weeks’ treatment 89% of subjects raised their cellular magnesium levels – with an average increase of 59.7%! Just think how much more improvement will be realized with a 100% pure elemental pico meter magnesium like ReMag blended in a wonderfully luxurious lotion!

Another bonus outcome of this same study is that the patients showed an improvement in their calcium/magnesium ratio, and 78% demonstrated significant evidence of detoxification of heavy metals! 

#2 - Get right to the source
ReMag lotion is an effective way to maintain your flexibility, range of motion, and endurance after a work-out or fitness activity! Regularly apply this lotion after your fitness activities and let us know how well you do.

#3 - It's easy
Applying this lotion – which you can do in place of your regular moisturizer – requires almost minimal effort, giving you maximum bang for your buck. This bottle has a shelf life of two years and goes a long way toward supplementing your dietary magnesium intake.

Neuro-Mag™ Magnesium L-Threonate

Neuro-Mag™ Magnesium L-Threonate
90 vegetarian capsules Item Catalog Number: 01603

Half of the older people in the developed world are magnesium deficient.61 Don’t be one of them! Magnesium is needed for more than 300 biochemical reactions in the body.62 In addition to support for cardiovascular and bone health,energy metabolism and mood, researchers are now focusing intensely on magnesium’s benefits for cognitive function.Unfortunately, it is very hard for your body to maintain optimal levels of magnesium in the brain. This problem is of special concern for maturing individuals, as magnesium deficiency increases over time.

Most commercially available magnesium supplements are not readily absorbed into the nervous system. To overcome this obstacle, you can supplement with an innovative form of magnesium called Neuro-Mag™, shown to specifically target the aging brain and nervous system.

In pre-clinical models, L-threonate contained in Neuro-Mag™ boosted magnesium levels in spinal fluid by an impressive 15% compared to no increase with conventional magnesium. Even more compelling, animal models revealed improvements of 18% for short-term memory and 100% for long-term memory using theNeuro-Mag™ form of magnesium.The suggested daily dose of three Neuro-Mag™ Magnesium L-Threonate capsules provides 2,000 mg of magnesium L-threonate. While this supplies a modest 144 mg of elemental magnesium, its superiorabsorption into the bloodstream and nervous system make it a preferred supplemental choice.

Neuro-Mag™ Magnesium L-Threonate

Magnesium Caps

500 mg, 100 vegetarian capsules

Magnesium is one of the body’s most important minerals. It is required as a cofactor in hundreds of enzymatic processes within cells.16 It helps maintain normal muscle and nerve function, keeps heart rhythm steady, promotes healthy cardiovascular function, supports a healthy immune system, and keeps bones strong. Magnesium also helps maintain blood sugar and blood pressure levels already within normal range, and it is known to be involved in energy metabolism and protein synthesis.17,18

Magnesium is a major factor in relaxing the smooth muscles within the blood vessels, thereby reducing peripheral vascular resistance and promoting a healthy cardiovascular system.19-21 Magnesium also affects circulating levels of norepinephrine and the synthesis of serotonin and nitric oxide.22-24

Magnesium positively influences the bone mineral matrix and its ability to metabolize minerals needed for repair and rebuilding.25,26 Scientific literature documents the need for a wide range of minerals, including calcium and magnesium, that are vital to maintaining strong, healthy bones.

Moreover, there is strong evidence that dietary magnesium intake and supplementation improves the metabolic profile.86-88 Magnesium has been shown to beneficially impact insulin resistance, serum lipid profiles, inflammation, endothelial function, oxidative stress and platelet aggregability.89

Since magnesium is so inexpensive, everyone should consider supplementing with at least 500 mg of magnesium daily. Magnesium Caps provides one of the highest concentrations of elemental magnesium per capsule available on the market.

Neuro-Mag™ Magnesium L-Threonate

D-glucarate is an element found in grapefruit, apples, oranges, broccoli and Brussels sprouts. It supports the body’s detoxification system, called glucuronidation. Your body uses glucuronidation to make a large variety of substances more water-soluble, and, by extension, allow for their subsequent elimination through urine or faeces (via bile from the liver).
