Arthritis, it could surprise you!<br />

Pine bark may support brain<br />

function<br />

Recent news from Auckland University<br />

of Technology has people excited about a<br />

pine bark extract called Enzogenol. AUT<br />

reported that patients suffering memory<br />

loss and other brain problems after a<br />

traumatic brain injury recovered better<br />

when taking Enzogenol compared to a<br />

control group.<br />

Enzogenol is not a new product, though.<br />

In fact, it was developed at Canterbury<br />

University and has been in our health<br />

food shops for over 10 years. According to<br />

ENZO Nutraceuticals, the company that<br />

produces the product, a number of research<br />

studies have shown how Enzogenol can<br />

help improve brain function and support<br />

healthy blood circulation.<br />

The amazing thing is, it is made from<br />

the bark of New Zealand Pinus Radiata<br />

with an extraction method that uses only<br />

purified water. Apparently, the pine bark<br />

is full of healthy plant compounds that<br />

are naturally part of our diet when we eat<br />

fruits and vegetables. Yet, the pine bark is<br />

loaded with these natural antioxidant and<br />

anti-inflammatory compounds and makes<br />

a great starting material for this health<br />

product. Keen on a chewing a bit of pine<br />

bark?<br />

“Treadle” for<br />

Healthy Feet<br />

“Treadling” on an Aircycle circulation booster is a highly effective<br />

way to keep your feet healthy,” says Lynne Taylor, Manager of<br />

Diabetes Christchurch.<br />

Maintaining good blood<br />

flow in the feet is key to<br />

preventative foot care<br />

and is simple with an<br />

Aircycle. The “treadle”<br />

exercise works the calf<br />

muscles and pumps the<br />

blood.<br />

“It’s in our feet that<br />

arthritis, complications of<br />

diabetes, including nerve,<br />

neuropathy and circulatory<br />

disorders often show up,”<br />

says Lynne. ”It’s important<br />

to heed the first signs, as<br />

loss of feeling can mean<br />

abrasions, ulcers and<br />

other foot problems go<br />

undetected or do not<br />

heal, sometimes leading<br />

to amputation”.<br />

By maintaining good<br />

blood flow with the<br />

Aircycle, people frequently<br />

Life is better with clearer thinking, sharper mind, healthier brain and body.<br />

Enzogenol, is a potent natural antioxidant & anti-inflammatory, produced<br />

from an extract of the New Zealand pine bark. In one study researchers<br />

concluded it can reduce the average age of the brain by 12 years in as<br />

little as 5 weeks. Studies show it can improve response time as well as<br />

long & short term memory, concentration & brain performance. Enzogenol<br />

also helps protect the body from the aging process, including supporting<br />

the cardiovascular, nervous system & improving recovery after illness.<br />

ENZO:PROFESSIONAL contains 240mg of Enzogenol + 30mg Vitamin C.<br />

It is the most potent Enzogenol formula available.<br />
