face of our planet. Bee Pollen is a treasure trove of vitamins,
minerals, enzymes, amino acids, anti-oxidants

In
a book by Royden Brown called The World's Only Perfect Food: The
Bee Pollen Bible, it reports that life
can be sustained on a diet of Bee Pollen and water alone.
It is the most complete food
that exists containing everything our body's need, so that if
you were stranded on a desert island and had nothing but Bee Pollen
and water, you could survive on just that. It
is a low-calorie food with
anti-aging, blood
building and
rejuvenating properties. Bee
pollen can help relieve insomnia,
aid digestion, improve mood and
improve brittle hair and
nails. Regular intake can help to protect against
allergies, including
mild hay fever - a case of the cause also being the cure. It can
also help with conception problems,
protect against high cholesterol
and
heart disease and
helps to strengthen
the immune system.
Organic
Peruvian Maca Powder:
Maca
powder comes from the maca plant, a
cruciferous vegetable which is native to peru. Maca contains high
amounts of vitamins, minerals, enzymes
and all the essential amino
acids. Maca is an adaptogen so it "adapts" to
your body's metabolism and can help you achieve your optimal level
of health and energy. It
is nourishing for the hormonal system, it
regulates hormones and menstruation, eases
period pains, alleviates menopausal symptoms and
enhances libido, sexual function and fertility.
Maca is also used to build energy,
muscle, stamina, vitality and endurance and is
a favourite amongst athletes. It increases blood
circulation, stimulates the immune
system and helps to overcome chronic
fatigue. Maca also helps to elevate
your mood, rids depression and improves mental ability and concentration.
Our
Maca is of the highest quality, grown in Peru and is organically
certified. To ensure it retains all of it's potency, our Maca is carefully
dried and powdered. This also makes it easy to use.
Guarana
Powder:
Guarana
seed is a potent South American energy food with numerous health
benefits used traditionally as a natural energy source or stimulant.
For thousands of years, native Amazonians have used the seed extract
of the guarana berry to help maintain stamina
and physical endurance. Over
the last 10 years Guaraná has become increasingly popular
as a ‘herbal high’ or
natural stimulant. Taking 1 gram of guarana seed
powder orally will provide a clean hit of energy,
mental clarity and gentle excitement that usually
lasts between 2-4 hours. Guarana increases
concentration and clears the mind. It quickens
perceptions, slows the pulse and suppresses the appetite
which is very useful during long drives or work periods. Guarana
contains guaranine, a compound almost identical to caffeine! It
can be used to replace coffee and consumed in the same way or
added to coffee to “strengthen” it.
Guarana also contains large amounts of theophylline, theobromine,
and tannic acid, and is also rich in saponins. The fact that Guarana
seed is fatty means that even ground into a powder, it is not
readily water soluble. Therefore, the body does not quickly absorb
it. The guaranine is released slowly! Guarana Benefits: combats
fatigue, increases energy, stimulates brain function, aids concentration,
helps to speed recovery from illness, reduces the appetite, acts
as a gentle diurectic, improves tolerance to heat and humidity.
This herbal tonic has also traditionally been used to assist in
the relief of various ailments such as stress and nervous
tension, weight control, headaches and hangovers, and even menstrual
pain.
Guarana powder can be mixed with fruit juice, punch or herbal
tea. Daily oral intake should not exceed 3 grams. Guarana is not
recommended for women who are pregnant or lactating or for long-term
use.
