Herbs For Memory and Cognition
Whilst we often relate the cause of memory loss to ageing, it is also important to note memory loss and lack of concentration can often be caused by stress, anxiety, and depression. It is therefore logical when looking for a natural supplement to assist with memory and concentration, we should also look for herbs which not only address memory but also stress and anxiety.
Positive Effects Of Quercetin
Recently I wrote about Quercetin for allergies as well as immunity. Quercetin, when taken with Zinc has been found to be beneficial because of Quercetin’s ability to transport Zinc into our cells. This in turn can diminish the replication of viruses plus support immunity. This obviously, is why Quercetin has become so popular of late.
Benefits Of Zinc
Zinc can play an integral role in maintaining a healthy immune system. There are ongoing studies relating to the benefits of Zinc for our immune system. Some studies have shown supplementing with Zinc, especially if we are Zinc deficient, may reduce the period of a cold by up to 50%.

Tips To Avoid Fluid Retention
At this time of the year, with the weather a little warmer we often find customers are looking for a remedy to treat fluid retention. Symptoms are usually swelling of the limbs, abdomen, breasts and sometimes face. Fluid retention is caused by an imbalance in the body’s transfer of fluids. This can be caused by sitting or standing for long periods, hormonal changes in women during menstruation and pregnancy, poor circulation such as varicose veins or blood clots or even environmental factors such as high altitudes or heat.
