B-Complex

B-Complex-50 Mg.x2: Vitamin B Complex supplements, includes Vitamin B6. Technically an umbrella term used to describe B Vitamins. It functions primarily as a coenzyme, working along with other enzymes to speed up chemical reactions in cells. Government surveys indicate that one third of adults are deficient in these key nutrients. The elderly, pregnant or nursing women, oral contraceptive users and smokers are particularly at risk for a deficiency. Ease Carpal Tunnel Syndrome - People who suffer from this painful wrist and hand disorder are often deficient in Vitamin B6. Supplements may not only decrease the inflammation that causes complications but also improve circulation to the compromised areas. In Addition, Vitamin B6 may boost the production of the neurotransmitter GABA (Gamma-Aminobutyric acid), which helps control pain. Prevent Nerve Damage: People with diabetes are at risk of developing nerve damage. Supplemental Vitamin B6 may guard against this complication.
Spirulina Spirulina 500Mgx2: is a blue-green algae containing complete balance protein and a wide range of valuable nutrients. Contains 18 out of 22 amino acids and all the essential amino acids. Spirulina is particularly high in beta carotene, which is a powerful antioxidant that protects the body from free radical damage. It also converts into vitamin A in the body. Vitamin A is essential for healthy eyes, skin, hair, teeth, bones and a strong immune system. Popular usages for Spirulina include: Supports healthy immune system, Boosts energy and cellular health, increasing neurotransmitter formation, and Diabetes to name a few.
Omega 3s Omega 3's - EFA Omega-3 EFA's are components of nerve cell and cellular membranes. They are converted by the body into eicosanoids, leukotrienes, and prostaglandins. All of which are needed on a second-by second basis by most tissue activities in the body. The Omega-3 polyunsaturates have significant anti-inflammatory properties. People started taking "Cod Liver Oil" hundreds of years ago, relieving such symptoms like: Rheumatoid Arthritis, Osteoarthritis, and Joint Pain. Listed are just a few of the EFA's benefits involved in normal physiology: Transporting oxygen from red blood cells to the tissue, regulating nerve transmission and communication, regulating smooth muscles and autonomic reflexes, regulating pressure in the eye, joints, and blood vessels, and mediating immune response.
Glucosamine Glucosamine - As a supplement, glucosamine comes in several different forms of which the sulfate, hydrochloric acid, and N-acetylated are commonly available. Amino sugars are the key components of larger compounds called glycosaminoglycans and glycoproteins that allow cells in tissue to hold together. They are necessary for the construction and maintenance of virtually all connective tissue and lubricating fluids in the body, including joints. Note: Glucosamine is a derived from shellfish.
MSM MSM (methl-sufonyl-methane) is an essential nutrient required by the body and plays an important role in the production of collagen and in fighting arthritis. Insufficient levels of MSM can lead to the inability of the body to repair or replace damaged tissue. MSM is also important in controlling pain cased by inflamed tissue cells created by the inability of cells to remain permeable and regulate fluid levels in response to atmospheric pressure changes. MSM is the sulfur supplier, which allows the body to heal itself. Which may help you live a pain free active life.
Magnesium Magnesium - is an important mineral to promote health because it enhances around 300 enzymes -related processes. This mineral converts blood sugar into energy, facilitates effective nerve and muscle functioning (transmissions of impulses among nerve cells and muscle and it is involved in bone and tooth formation). Possible benefits: Aids in effective nerve and muscle functioning, relaxes muscles, converts blood sugar into energy.

THERACREAM Market Comparison:
 

Currently, there is no product on the market that has the proprietary power of over 12 therapeutic ingredients that not only helps provide relief for muscle and joint pain but also for tension headaches and body stress. Most of the market leaders today contain no more than 3 to 5 essential ingredients which are usually synthetic accompanying a displeasing locker room odor in a non aloe vera base. Instead, our cream uses the highest grade botanical elements with an enticing aroma-therapeutic scent in an aloe vera base. Other creams like the capsaicin "hot pepper" creams usually contain only one therapeutic ingredient. Additionally, studies show along with our own clinical experience that these pure capsaicin type creams can create much irritation for the patient. Our cream on the other hand uses the whole herb of cayenne pepper which contains some capsaicin but maintains the benefits without the irritation. In comparing packaging the hot trend today is to use non touch applicators. We purposely avoided doing this due to the fact of missing out on another potential healing element. The art of using touch as a means of therapy is taught in over 80 universities and offered in at least 200 U.S. hospitals including Beth Israel Medical Center in New York and Georgetown University Medical Center in Washington D.C. Far superior to any competitor, every aspect of THERACREAM® is clearly an advancement for topical pain relief.

Why to avoid Non Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs

America's most popular "quick fix" choice for pain is over the counter medication in the form of NSAIDS (Non Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs). More commonly known names for NSAIDS include Ibuprofen, Aspirin, Acetaminophen, Bayer, Excedrin, Advil, Aleve, Motrin-IB, Naproxen Sodium, Tylenol etc........ This multimillion dollar industry is creating serious damage and often times death to our bodies. Specifically, NSAIDS commonly cause liver toxicity, gastric ulcers, can be harmful to asthmatics, and can be hazardous when mixed with alcohol. Last year alone over 100,000 hospitalizations and 16,500 deaths were attributed to these over the counter medications. Also, be aware of so called "super safe aspirins" known as Cox-2 inhibitors. Common names are Celebrex and Vioxx. They are the leading most prescribed new drugs this year exceeding over 12 million. Although they are somewhat safer than traditional medication there usage does not come without side effects. The Journal of the American Medical Association published a report in August of 2001 indicating an increased cardiovascular risk of heart attack, unstable angina, or stroke with the use of Cox-2 inhibitors. The Wall Street Journal published an article just 3 months after the release of Celebrex attributing its use to 10 deaths and 11 cases of gastrointestinal disorders. It appears that these Cox-2 inhibitors suppress wound and ulcer healing. Therefore, caution is necessary when using these new super drugs especially with ulcers which are probably the most common side effect of the older NSAID's. A clear safe alternative is the use of THERACREAM®.
