What is Nettle?

Stinging nettle originates as a native shrub in colder regions of Europe and Asia and is now found worldwide. Young stinging nettle leaves are eaten as a cooked vegetable. In traditional medicines, its root and aerial parts have been used for many centuries. Its name comes from its leaves and stems that release irritating chemicals when they contact your skin.

Coenzyme Q 10 (CoQ 10) is a natural antioxidant synthesized in body cells. It is naturally present only in small amounts in a wide variety of foods, and comes in two forms: ubiquinol, the active antioxidant form, and ubiquinone, the oxidized form, which the body has to convert to ubiquinol. Both types are available in supplements and deliver pretty much the same therapeutic effects: antioxidant, heart protective and migraine prophylactic.  The beneficial effects of CoQ 10 are focused on its vital role in oxygen utilization and energy production, particularly in heart and skeletal muscle cells. A typical North American diet includes approximately 10 mg of CoQ 10 daily, thus taking CoQ 10 supplements is recommended to meet the daily value.

NUTRIDOM VITAMIN D3 + K2, D3 EDITORIAL Research into vitamin D3 and K2 has increased in recent years and specifically their synergistic relationship to skeletal and cardiovascular health has caught the attention of health professionals. Vitamin D can be obtained in the diet, but it is most commonly known to be made in the skin when exposed to sunlight. There are two forms of vitamin D, vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol) and vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol), of which the D3 form is generally accepted to be the more bioavailable form of the two and thus is the form you should look for in a supplement. Deficiency in vitamin D has become more common as the evidence of sun damage and skin cancer has resulted in people limiting their skins exposure to the sun. In northern climates where long cold winters keep people inside and covered up, deficiency is even more common. A recent US study reported deficiency rates of 41.6%-86% in a study of over 4000 individuals. The importance of vitamin D in bone...
