Preparing Your Body for Winter

The autumn is an important time of the year for preparing the body for winter. As the seasons change, so should a person’s diet and habits. The last crops are being harvested, and new foods and vegetables are coming into season. The hedgerows are full of wonderful natural remedies such as rose hips (natural vitamin C) and elderberries (Sambuccos Niger). Boiling these with water and a small amount of honey makes a great little immune booster. If you would like to read more about the autumn diet, please check out our article on the matter.

There are, of course, a number of supplements that can help you ease through autumn into winter without any hiccups. Or possibly sneezes.

Echinacea

Many people choose to take Echinacea throughout the winter months to help keep their immune systems healthy. Echinacea can also be taken when you feel the onset of illness. It offers your immune system a helping hand to speed recovery. NutriVital’s Echinacea + also contains herbs such as Wild Indigo, Calendula and St John’s Wort, which work synergistically to boost your body’s natural defences and keep you cold and virus free throughout the coming winter.

MSM

Sulphur has been used for years for detoxification of heavy metals, it can be used to alkalise the body, it helps with joint pain and repair and is a precursor to glucosamine. Take 4 daily for maximum benefit.

Cal-Mag-D+

Cal- Mag D+ can be used for improving calcium supplementation. When used at night, Cal-Mag-D+ is a mild sedative and muscle relaxant. It aids sleep and eases sore and stiff joints. Take 2 before going to bed.

Valerian Plus

Using our warm pressing method (unique to our herbal tonic range) we have used this blend to help support the nervous system. In the short term it can be taken at night to promote natural sleep. In the long term it may assist those who suffer from anxiety, depression and nervous exhaustion to become more relaxed. Take 15 drops in water at night.

Devils Claw Tonic

Devils Claw Tonic contains 6 herbs with anti-inflammatory and analgesic actions, which help relieve joint pain. Taken long term, it will help to maintain healthy joints, ligaments and tendons. Take 15 drops in water morning and evening.

Ginkgo

Ginkgo contains 8 herbs, which will improve memory and mental function. By improving the circulation more oxygen and nutrients can reach the brain and toxins can more readily be removed. Ginkgo will also improve circulation in general. Take 15 drops in water twice daily.

Daily Greens

Daily Greens is our recently introduced ‘super green’ multi vitamin and mineral. Made entirely from greenfood, 4 capsules are equivalent to 2 lbs of vegetables! Not only is it extremely nourishing, pleasant and easy to take, but also very alkalising for the body.

Whatever you choose, look after yourself and keep fit and healthy, in body and in mind!
