ROSEHIPS EASES ARTHRITIS SYMPTOMS



A herbal supplement made from the seeds of rosehips(Rosa canina) can overcome severity of symptoms in people with osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee and hip, according to a study published in the Scandinavian Journal of Rheumatology.(2005:34:302-8).


OA, a degenerative disease common in older people, is characterized by progressive loss of cartilage in the joints and symptoms such as pain, stiffness and reduced mobility.


Rose hips are the bright red fruit of a wild rose bush, known for their high vitamin C and bioflavonoid content. Popularly used to prevent and treat colds and asthma, a recent study found that powder of rose hips has anti-inflammatory properties.


Three clinical trials involving the same preparation of rosehips concluded that rose hips are an effective pain reliever. A total of 306 patients participated in the three clinical trials, two of the studies were from Denmark and one involved patients from Norway. The results of this study show that rosehips powder can alleviate symptoms of OA and increase mobility in arthritic joints.

XAMIOL: A NEW TREATMENT OPTION FOR SCALP PSORIASIS



Xamiol is a new once-daily topical treatment developed especially for scalp psoriasis in patients over the age of 18 years. Xamiol contains a vitamin D analogue (calcipotriol) and a corticosteroid (betamethasone) in a gel formulation. The complementary modes of action of the two active ingredients support a fast onset of action and results in the long term when used as recommended.


Xamiol should be applied to the affected areas of the scalp once daily for 4 weeks. After this period, repeated treatment with Xamiol can be initiated. Xamiol is to be used once-a-day, for convenience, Xamiol can be applied NIGHTLY as part of your bedtime routine.




All the affected scalp areas may be treated with Xamiol. When using calcipotriol-containing products, the maximum daily dose should not exceed 15g (app. 4 teaspoons), and the maximum weekly dose should not exceed 100g (app. 25 teaspoons).




People react differently to treatments. Most people see results within 1-2 weeks of treatment. It is, however, important to continue with the treatment as described by your doctor. When you have been cleared from psoriasis, you may not need the treatment for a period of time. You can safely stop the treatment and start it again when necessary, as described by your doctor.

BARAKA: NIGELLA SATIVA OIL EXTRACT



Baraka,the only pharmaceutical standard designed Food Supplement with Nigella Sativa Oil Extract to maintain good health.


Many centuries ago , Nigella Sativa ,or black cumin, or known as Habbatus-Sauda is regarded by many as a panacea for many illness. Habbatus-Sauda seeds have been known to have the high remedial quality. Remedy asthma and allergies, and also banish fatigue.


Baraka is a pharmaceutical quality product with endorsement of Ministry of Health Malaysia and NPCB.


Each capsule contains: Nigella Sativia Oil Extract 450mg

Usage: 2 to 6 capsules daily.


{Sabda Prophet Muhammad S.A.W,"Keep your treatment with Habbatus-Sabda, as it contains a cure for all illnesses except death" ,related by Al-Bukhari.}


Nigella sativa oil (not black cumin seed oil) contains nigellone, which protects guinea pigs from histamine-induced bronchial spasms(perhaps explaining its use to relieve the symptoms of asthma, bronchitis, and coughing).
The presence of an antitumor sterol, beta-sitosterol, lends credence to its traditional use to treat abscesses and tumors of the abdomen, eyes, and liver.
N. sativa oil has been reported to be effective in treating opioid dependence.
N. sativa also has been reported to reduce calculi formation in rats' kidneys.
The oil contains melanthin, nigilline, damascene and tannin. Melanthin is toxic in large doses and nigelline is paralytic, so this spice must be used in moderation.


Researchers at the Kimmel Cancer Center at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia have found that thymoquinone, an extract of N. sativa seed oil, blocked pancreatic cancer cell growth and killed the cells by enhancing the process of programmed cell death, (apoptosis), acting as an HDAC inhibitor. While the studies are in the early stages, the findings suggest thymoquinone could eventually have some use as a preventative strategy in patients who have gone through surgery and chemotherapy or in individuals who are at a high risk of developing cancer.



Nigella Sativa currently has five (5) FDA separate patents in the U.S. and one (1) in the UK for the treatment of:
1.Diabetes (US 6,042,834)


2.Inhibition of cancer cell growth (US 5,653,981)


3.Improvement of the Immune System (US 5,482,711)


4.Viral Infections (US 6,841,174)


5.Psoriasis (US 6,531,164)


6.Asthma (UK - EP1709995)

WATER-SOLUBLE SOLUOMEGA---THE BIOACTIF(BIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE)FISH OIL





Consistent with the science,Nuvaceuticals proudly introduces SoluOmega Fish Oil. SoluOmega is a water-soluble fish oil supplement containing 50% concentration of the Omega 3 fatty acids EPA and DHA.



Using a proprietary Lipisol technology, scientists have successfully overcome the challenges faced by conventional fish oils. When SoluOmega comes into contact with water, it remains dispersed as fine oil droplets of sub-micron size thus rendered water-soluble.

The SoluOmega breakthrough science is of important benefit to the following:





  • Anyone requiring high omega 3 dosing.


  • Anyone wanting a healthier omega 3 formulation.


  • Anyone on weight control.


  • Elderly


  • Anyone with compromised fat digestion conditions whether from aging,disease,medication or surgery including:poor liver function,poor gall bladder function,poor pancreatic function(e.g.diabetes).


How will I know whether my fish oil is water-soluble?





  1. Take the fish oil capsules and drop it into water.


  2. Give it a light stir.


  3. Water-soluble fish oils completely dissolve in water whilst non water-soluble fish oils form a layer of oil on the water surface.
