Lamberts Natural Form Vitamin E 250iu (16mg) 100 capsules - Vitamin E protects polyunsaturated fats from being oxidised into free radicals, and so protects all membranes including those in blood vessel walls. Examples of these polyunsaturated fats in the diet are fish and seed oils. Probably one of the most important nutrients for the survival of all oxygen breathing forms of life, Vitamin E has been the centre of worldwide research and is recognised as a biological antioxidant. It is often referred to as alpha-tocopherol. However, this fat soluble vitamin does not work alone but has a close relationship with Vitamin C and beta-carotene and they work together in combatting free radicals.

Lamberts Rutin + C + Bioflavonoids 90 capsules - Vitamin C and Bioflavonoids occur naturally together in nature. One of the richest sources of this combination is found in the pulp and rind of citrus fruits and vegetables whilst Rutin is a flavonoid found in buckwheat. Bioflavonoids are naturally occurring, organic plant pigments that appear to assist in the availability and use of Vitamin C, and are particularly important in maintaining the integrity of the blood vessels since they support collagen integrity. Some Bioflavonoids have anti-oxidant capabilities rather like Vitamin C, and have been shown in vitro to protect both Vitamin C and Adrenalin from oxidation by Copper containing enzymes.

Lamberts Gentle Vitamin C 500mg non-acidic 100 tablets - Vitamin C when taken in certain forms may cause gastric upset to some patients. This is due to the acidity within the nutritional supplement such as large amounts of Ascorbic Acid. Gentle Vitamin C has been reacted with Calcium in order to try and prevent it causing too much gastric upset. This formulation overcomes the gas which can occur with other buffered supplements and so avoids discomfort. This form of Vitamin C is important to those people who require large amounts as it allows Vitamin C supplementation to be used to its fullest potential. Small intakes several times daily are more beneficial than a single large amount.

Lamberts Vitamin C 1000mg with Bioflavonoids 180 tablets - Vitamin C and Bioflavonoids occur naturally together in nature. One of the richest sources of this combination is found in the pulp and rind of citrus fruits and vegetables. Bioflavonoids are naturally occurring, organic plant pigments that appear to assist in the availability and use of Vitamin C, and are particularly important in maintaining the integrity of the blood vessels since they support collagen integrity. Some Bioflavonoids have anti-oxidant capabilities rather like Vitamin C, and have been shown in vitro to protect both Vitamin C and Adrenalin from oxidation by Copper containing enzymes. Rosehip syrup in the undiluted form is one of the richest natural sources of Vitamin C and was used long before Vitamin C was discovered. This combination of Vitamin C, Rosehips and Bioflavonoids provides those who have dietary insufficiency with adequate Vitamin C to supplement their diets.

Lamberts Calcium Ascorbate 250g powder - Vitamin C was first discovered in 1932 and was the subject of the first controlled nutritional experiment in recorded history. It is known to be involved in at least 300 biochemical pathways in the body. It is a water soluble vitamin and, as man is unable to manufacture this vitamin within the body, a daily intake is necessary. Vitamin C:. is involved in cell and tissue repair . is involved in the conversion of proline to hydroxyproline and is therefore essential in collagen maintenance in skin, bones and teeth . is required for the activity of leucocytes, immunoglobulins and natural antibodies . protects vitamins A and E against damage . helps maintain normal blood cholesterol levels . has antioxidant properties . is involved in the formation of corticosteroid hromones in the adrenal gland.

Lamberts Nicotinamide 250mg 100 tablets - Vitamin B-3, a water soluble nutrient, appears in several different forms, all of which can be referred to as niacin. One of the forms is nicotinamide, synonymous with niacinamide. Nicotinamide functions in over fifty metabolic reactions. It plays a key role in glycolysis, the Krebs Cycle and the hexose monophosphate shunt, all of which are important in the release of energy from macro-nutrients. It is also needed in the deamination of amino acids, essential fatty acid metabolism and in the metabolism of fatty acids. By playing a role in the formation of red blood cells, steroids, and in energy production within the cells, nicotinamide is vital in maintaining the integrity of all body cells.

Lamberts Calcium Pantothenate 500mg Time Release 60 tablets - The name pantothenic acid comes from the latin word "panthos" meaning everywhere and is often referred to as vitamin B-5. Pantothenic acid is a derivative of one of the few naturally occurring beta amino acids, beta alanine. Mammals cannot synthesize this vitamin but it is ubiquitous throughout the plant and animal kingdom. Vitamin B-5 is used in the production of corticosteroid hromones by the adrenal glands, in cholesterol metabolism and is an integral component of coenzyme A, which is essential for energy release from food and for fatty acid and cholesterol metabolism. During demanding situations, this vitamin often enables us to cope better biochemically.

Lamberts Vitamin B-6 50mg 100 tablets - Vitamin B-6 refers to a family of three closely-related, water soluble compounds: Pyridoxine, Pyridoxal and Pyridoxamine. The conversion of Vitamin B-6 into the active compound of Pyridoxal-5-Phosphate requires the presence of Vitamin B-2 and Magnesium; another example of the interrelationship of the B Vitamins. Pyridoxine (Vitamin B-6) is often taken by women as a Pre-menstrual supplement to assist essential fatty acid metabolism and fluid balance. Vitamin B-6 levels have been shown to be lower in those with Atherosclerosis and Cardiovascular Disease.

Lamberts Biotin 500mcg 90 capsules - This vitamin was first isolated from egg yolk in 1935 and is found in a variety of combined forms in both animal and plant tissues. In the animal it is stored in the liver. Biotin is readily produced by intestinal bacteria. Antibiotics and other medications have been shown to affect the bacterial production of this vitamin. The co-enzyme properties of biotin enable it to metabolise carbohydrate and protein for energy release and to take part in the production of prostaglandins from essential fatty acids. In the body it is primarily used to assist with normal growth and development of the skin, hair, nerves and bone marrow.

Lamberts Folic Acid 400mcg 100 tablets - Folic acid is formed from glutamic acid (an amino acid), para-aminobenzoic acid and another group of organic substances. First isolated from green leaves and identified in 1945, it is synthesized by intestinal bacteria and is involved in cell division in both plants and animals. The metabolism of folic acid is closely linked with that of vitamin B-12. A supplement of 400 µg folic acid daily is advised for all women planning a pregnancy, up to the 12th week of pregnancy. Folic acid is involved in the development of the baby's neural tube, an invaluable part of the nervous system. This supplement is often administered by practitioners to premature infants.

Lamberts Choline 250mg/Inositol 250mg 60 capsules - Choline is known to be essential in animal and human metabolism; it is not a Vitamin in man since it is synthesized in the body. Its action is related to that of the B Vitamins. Choline together with Glycerol and Fatty Acids are constituents of Lecithin. Choline also helps to form Acetylcholine, an essential neurotransmitter. Inositol is a water soluble substance found associated in food with the B complex. Inositol is closely associated with Choline and, like Choline, it appears to be involved in Fat metabolism, particularly in relation to the Liver. These nutrients have been combined for maximum assimilation.

Lamberts Vitamin B-12 100mcg 100 tablets - Vitamin B-12 is a complex substance containing the mineral cobalt at its centre. Principally, it participates in the rapid regeneration of bone marrow and red blood cells. This vitamin was first isolated from liver in 1948 and is needed for the synthesis of DNA and for normal metabolism of nerve tissue. However, in cases of achlorhydria the vitamin may not be extracted from food. Folic Acid, Iron and Vitamin B-12 are all referred to as haematinic factors and are vital for the formation of healthy blood cells. Vitamin B-12 is also necessary for myelin sheath production and for a healthy cardiovascular system. This vitamin may not be bio-available from vegetable sources such as blue/green algae, etc.

Lamberts Riboflavin 50mg (Vitamin B-2) 100 capsules - The B group of Vitamins is a collection of essential nutrients that have certain characteristics in common. They are all water soluble and they are found in food sources such as Brewer's Yeast, Meat, Wholegrains, Cereals and Vegetable Proteins (see food tables at the back of this catalogue). Whilst chemically distinct from one another, the ways in which the B Vitamins work in the body are closely interrelated. Folic Acid and Vitamin B-12 metabolisms are closely connected. Vitamin B-2 is required for the activation of Vitamin B-6; and Vitamin B-3 can be manufactured from other dietary agents provided there is adequate Vitamin B-6. The B complex functions in the body as a group of Vitamins. They are essential for the release of energy from food and vital for the metabolism of Fats and Protein. The group contributes to the maintenance of healthy skin, hair, eyes, mouth, liver function and the production of Haemoglobin. Correct functioning of the Brain and Nervous System requires B complex Vitamins to be available regularly from the diet. This complex may be favoured by:-. those with poor dietary intake, and those who generally eat junk fast food. the elderly or those on a reduced diet. convalescents to make up leeway in their nutrition. anyone with a demanding lifestyle and irregular eating habits. heavy drinkers.

Lamberts Betasec Anti-Oxidant 60 tablets - It is now well recognised that essential dietary micro-nutrients, including specific vitamins and trace elements, are vital for the support of the body's protective antioxidant systems. These systems defend the body against attack from harmful free radicals that are thought to be central to the development of a variety of degenerative illnesses. Over the last few years, researchers have turned their attention towards the health-protective,non-essential plant anti-oxidants which include materials such as flavonoids and other plant polyphenolic materials from dietary sources such as grape seed, green tea and rosemary alongside herbs including Ginkgo Biloba. This group, although not currently classified as vitamins, are now regarded as the new emerging class of potent anti-oxidants. Additonal supplies of anti-oxidants are often recommended as an 'insurance' measure for some patients or as a supplement for those with increased anti-oxidant requirements.

Lamberts Playfair 60 tablets - Playfair TM is a multi-vitamin and mineral preparation for dietary supplementation of children from 4-14 years of age. Good nutrition is important in children, particularly in periods of rapid growth or when the child expends a lot of energy on sports and other activities. Unfortunately this is the age when certain food dislikes and food fads can threaten the nutritional adequacy of the diet. Playfair TM is a tasty chewable formulation which provides sufficient quantities of vitamins and minerals to help prevent deficiency in the diet. The chews are sugar free and are therefore unlikely to contribute to tooth decay.

Lamberts Flax Seed Oil 90 capsules - The parent fatty acid in the Omega 3 family of polyunsaturates is Alpha-Linolenic Acid which can be converted in the body to longer chain members such as Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA) and Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA). As an essential fatty acid, Alpha-Linolenic Acid is required in relatively large amounts in the diet and, together with its derivatives EPA and DHA, has been shown to be extremely useful in supporting the cardio vascular system. Flax Seed is richer in Omega 3 than fish oils. The oil obtained from Flax Seed is a minimum of 50% by weight Alpha-Linolenic Acid which is almost twice as many Omega 3's per gram of weight as fish oils. This is a suitable alternative to those who cannot tolerate fish oils.Gelatin free.

Lamberts High GLA 220mg 90 capsules - Gamma-linolenic acid is an essential polyunsaturated fatty acid. Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA's) perform diverse biochemistry in most of the cells in our bodies. One group of PUFA's, the omega 6 fatty acids, play a role in the modulation of membrane structure and the formation of prostaglandins. They also control the water impermeability of our skin and possibly the gastro-intestinal tract coupled with the regulation of cholesterol transport and synthesis. High GLA supplementation may be of use when there is a requirement for higher levels of gamma linolenic acid (ie when more than one 1,000mg capsule of evening primrose oil is needed each day). This is due to the fact that 1 capsule of High GLA (sourced from borage/starflower oil) contains nearly three times as much GLA as that found in an equivalent supplement containing evening primrose oil only. High GLA is an ideal supplement where a high GLA intake is required, for example, during periods of rapid growth or when the diet is high in saturated fatty acids.

Lamberts Green Lipped Mussel Extract 350mg 90 capsules - Lamberts Green Lipped Mussel Extract; contains the pure extract of an edible green lipped mussel, Perna canalicus, found only in the clear unpolluted water surrounding New Zealand. Much research has been conducted internationally to test the efficacy of green lipped mussel extract (GLME) food supplement. The most important early study was conducted in Glasgow under the supervision of Dr Robin Gibson: and the positive results were published. Subsequently, a doubleblind, placebo-controlled study that lasted six months was carried out in France involving more than 200 respondents. Daily intake during this study was 1,380mg of green lipped mussel extract, and positive results were published by Dr Herni Billard. Concurrent studies have also been conducted in New Zealand to isolate and characterise the active principle in Green Lipped Mussel Extract; GLME. These suggest that the activity resides in a protein fraction and that its properties are unique and not demonstrated by other types of shellfish. Further research investigating the properties of GLME; has been published in Japan. This GLME; formula is in a hard gelatin capsule containing 350mg GLME. The screw cap of the bottle is so designed to make use much easier for those who suffer from Arthritis or Rheumatism.

Lamberts Glucosamine Sulphate 750mg 120 tablets - Glucosamine is essential for maintaining healthy cartilage, the smooth tissue that lines joints. There are no edible food sources of glucosamine, so when our bodies fail to manufacture sufficient natural glucosamine, supplementation is useful to help maintain joint mobility. Glucosamine is the essential building block upon which the structure of glycosaminoglycans is based - key components of cartilage and other connective tissues. Glucosamine is available in various forms. Glucosamine sulphate is the substance which has been repeatedly and successfully used alone in studies. It has an exceptional absorption rate of 90 - 98%. After absorption, it travels primarily to joint tissues, where it is incorporated into the connective tissue matrix of cartilage, ligaments and tendons.

Lamberts Thiamin 100mg (Vitamin B-1) 90 capsules - Thiamin is important to the enzymatic release of energy from carbohydrates. It is water soluble and is not stored in the body. The integrity of the Nervous System is also maintained by Thiamin, as it is vital for the production of the Neurotransmitter Acetylcholine. In its co-enzyme form of Thiamin Pyrophosphate, it is crucial in several metabolic functions including the removal of Carbon Dioxide, and the Decarboxylation of Alpha-Keto Acids.Thiamin works synergistically with other members of the B Complex particularly Riboflavin (Vitamin B-2) and Niacin. This supplement may be preferred by:- those who drink and/or smoke heavily. those whose work is physically strenuous. young people during growth spurts.

Lamberts Zinc Plus 100 lozenges - The principle role of any trace element is that of promoting the catalytic action of enzymes. Zinc is an invaluable mineral taking part in dehydrogenation and peptidase processes. It is specific for carboxypeptidase, the enzyme that removes the terminal amino acid from the carboxy end of a peptide. It is also specific for carboxylic anhydrase, the enzyme responsible for the ultimate elimination of carbon dioxide from an organism (and in the production of hydrochloric acid in the parietal cells of the stomach mucosa). Zinc is also an integral part of insulin, the hormone used for the treatment of diabetes, and is essential for all protein synthesis in the body. Any extra physical or mental demands made on the body can increase the need for zinc or cause our bodies to lose extra zinc, whereas phytate and fibre rich foods inhibit the absorption of zinc from food. One fifth of zinc in the body is found to be in skin. Zinc helps tissue renewal and is involved in some of the enzymatic reactions necessary for skin's normal oil gland function. The maintenance of the health of several body systems such as the nervous, immune and reproductive systems are influenced by zinc, as are the senses of taste and smell.

Lamberts A-Z Multi 60 tablets - Vitamins and minerals are essential to health and vitality. Although these substances occur naturally in various foods, adequate nutrition is not always achieved. Even in a well planned diet, the vitamin and mineral content may be reduced or destroyed by poor cooking. Lamberts A-Z Multi is like many other A-Z preparations on the market, offering vitamins and minerals at 100% of RDA. Our A-Z Multi offers an easy, cost effective way to ensure a basic intake of the most important micronutrients, although 100% of a nutrient's RDA is not necessarily the optimum level. It should be noted, however, that calcium and magnesium are too bulky to fit into any such multiple formulation at 100% of RDA. Our A-Z Multi should thereforebe taken alongside Osteoguard® to ensure an adequate intake of these very important minerals. Lamberts A-Z Multi is therefore of most use:. - as a lower priced option for long term use. - for youngsters from age 13 upwards. - during pregnancy.

Lamberts Zinc 30mg (as Gluconate) 100 tablets - The principle role of any trace element is that of promoting the catalytic action of enzymes. Zinc is an invaluable mineral takingpart in dehydrogenation and peptidase processes. It is specific for carboxypeptidase, the enzyme that removes the terminal amino acid from the carboxy end of a peptide. It is also specific for carboxylic anhydrase, the enzyme responsible for the ultimate elimination of carbon dioxide from an organism (and in the production of hydrochloric acid in theparietal cells of the stomach mucosa). Zinc is also an integral part of insulin, the hormone used for the treatment of diabetes, and is essential for all protein synthesis in the body. Any extra physical or mental demands made on the body can increase the need for zinc or cause our bodies to lose extra zinc, whereas phytate and fibre rich foods inhibit the absorption of zinc from food.

Lamberts Mega Mineral Complex 90 tablets - Minerals cannot be synthesized by our bodies, making the body reliant upon the dietary intake. Minerals are vital components of many of the Chemical Catalysts namely Enzymes which are involved in every biochemical process. Minerals actively participate in regulating many physiological functions, including transporting oxygen to cells and participation in the general upkeep of the central nervous system. Minerals are also required for growth, maintenance, repair and health of bones and tissues. Minerals are divided into two main groups, Macro Minerals and Trace Elements. Generally any minerals required in amounts of less than 100mg daily in the diet are considered to be Trace Elements. Combinations of these two are essential for those that lack dietary sufficiency. Mega Mineral Complex can safely be taken in conjunction with Lamberts multi vitamin products such as Megavit?, Multi-Max? and Multi-Guard? to form a high potency vitamin and mineral regime.

Lamberts Aloe Vera 10,000mg 60 capsules - Aloe vera is the most widely known and used of over 300 aloe species, most of which are native to South Africa but centuries ago became widely distributed via the major trade routes. Today, aloe vera is a popular houseplant and the plant may be used in its simplest form by applying the gel topically. The gel is obtained by simply breaking the thick triangular leaves near their base and squeezing the fresh gel directly onto dry skin, abrasions or burns. The gel spoils quickly but can be made into an ointment, which can then be kept for longer-term use. The juice comes from specialised cells beneath the thick outer skin of the leaves and contains a proportion of gel. Of the many historical uses for drinking aloe vera juice, the herb is best known for its effect in helping to maintain a healthy digestive system. However, the juice has a bitter taste and therefore a more convenient way to take the herb is in the form of capsules. Lamberts Aloe Vera capsules contain 50mg of concentrate equivalent to 10,000mg of fresh aloe vera juice.
