Rest and Play the Natural Way

Want to know the secret to vitality and longevity? Although a one pill fixes all is appealing, the reality is great nutrition, plenty of water, regular movement, lots of laughter and good sound sleep is the secret. Are you groaning, “We’ve heard this all before”.
The reason it keeps coming back is because it is true, it’s the one secret to improve your energy for good!

The Sleep Factor
One of the biggest factors influencing your day is how you slept last night. It determines how much energy you have to face challenges and embrace opportunities, it will also depict, how you eat and consequently how you function.

There’s big industry in drugs that induce sleep, but with increasing awareness of the health side-effects we see a growing movement towards more natural solutions.

Natural Sleep Solutions

Lifestyle Changes
A very simple and effective step towards good sleeping habits is to ensure your bedroom is totally dark. Any light can affect the release of our wake-up hormones and disrupt sleep patterns.
Exercise (though not before bedtime), light evening meals, disconnecting electronic devices two hours before you go to bed and reducing alcohol and caffeine, are all good sleep habits.
Initially, when attempting to follow a healthy lifestyle regime, you may need a helping hand to bring the metabolism into balance and that’s where natural supplementation comes in.

Gentle Homoeopathic Remedies
Homoeopathic remedies and tissue salts taken throughout the day can have a calming physiological effect. Some of these remedies are safe for children and suitable during pregnancy, a time when sleep patterns are often disturbed.

Increasing your protein intake
Protein is the most abundant constituent in the body besides water. It is responsible for the structure of body cells. It is essential for growth and development. Protein is required for hormonal, enzymatic function and energy production.

Natural Herbal Adaptogens
Adaptogens help the body to resist or cope with stress and are another means of attuning ourselves for better sleep and the consequent benefit of increased energy. Products containing adaptogenic herbs like rhodiola, Siberian ginseng and withania will help to tune and strengthen the nervous system resulting in increased stamina and an ability to deflect tension in times of stress.

High potency immune-boosting formula combining herbs traditionally used in Chinese medicine to promote a healthy immune system and build resistance against minor infections

• May assist in the management of recurrent upper respiratory tract infections , including colds , flu and sore throat

Astra 8™ Immune Tonic combines eight powerful herbal medicines traditionally used to restore and maintain Qi, thus supporting your resistance against minor infections.

Astragalus is a warming herb that restores Qi and supports Lung Qi. Its traditional use as a supportive remedy for those prone to colds is supported by scientific studies showing that it modulates key immune system cells.

Other herbs in Astra 8™ Immune Tonic that support Qi and immune health include:

• Schisandra, traditionally considered particularly beneficial for the Lung organ-meridian (which is responsible for the production and distribution of Defensive Qi)
• Reishi mushroom (also known as Ganoderma), which is traditionally taken to relieve weakness and fatigue , improve stamina, and help reduce susceptibility to recurrent upper respiratory infections
• Siberian ginseng, which may have a modulating effect on key types of immune cells involved in fighting minor infection, while also helping to improve the body’s ability to adapt to stress

WHY AM I SO TIRED?

In today’s face paced society it is not unusual to suffer fatigue, feel tired, and lack energy.

Symptoms

When you are fatigued, the main feeling is exhaustion, weakness and no stamina. In addition, it can affect concentration, mood and libido.

Why it happens?

You may suffer fatigue because of:

• Depression, anxiety or grief
• Poor sleep habits
• Stress
• Dehydration
• Poor diet or lifestyle choices
• Iron deficiency
• Excessive physical demands
• Ageing
• Obesity
• Medical conditions may include infections, pain, chronic fatigue, restless leg syndrome, blood sugar irregularities or digestive disturbances
•  

What natural therapies can help?

When we are stressed our body utilises magnesium, calcium, zinc, B group vitamins, and vitamin C. Testing to ensure you are not missing out on any of these key nutrients can be done easily at Go Vita Tanunda, even a minor deficiency may contribute to fatigue.

Iron deficiency anaemia may be improved with supplementation.

Calming herbs like Zizyphus, hops and passionflower may help if you are experiencing sleeping difficulties.

Adaptagenic Herbs increase the body’s resistance to stress and builds up general vitality. Herbal tonics can help revitalise you when you are feeling run down. Herbs such as ginseng and astragalus have been traditionally used for centuries to fight fatigue.

What else will help?

• We all get tired now and then but occasionally tiredness indicates there’s something going physically wrong. Iron deficiency is one common cause, but hormonal imbalance and other factors could also be at play. If your energy levels are consistently low despite getting enough sleep, it might be time to talk to Peter Balogh, Naturopath at Go Vita Tanunda.
• Keep yourself well hydrated. Aim for two litres of water daily.
• Maintain blood sugar levels. Eat small regular meals rather than three large meals
• Watch the waistline
• Get adequate rest and follow a healthy diet.
• Chill out – exercise and stretching helps clear your mind and relaxes your muscles. Try deep breathing exercises and meditation if you can’t slow down.

If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, have any allergies or diagnosed conditions, always consult your healthcare professional before taking nutritional or herbal supplements.

Fusion Health Blood Sugar | Vitamins for Women | Vitamins for Men

Healthy glucose balance
High potency formula containing a synergistic blend of Chinese and Ayurvedic herbs traditionally used to help maintain healthy blood sugar.


Features and benefits
May help healthy people maintain normal, healthy blood sugar and glycaemic control, and assist in maintaining cholesterol and blood lipid levels within the normal range.
Contains antioxidants to help protect the kidneys, liver and eyes from free radical damage and inhibit the oxidation of cholesterol.


Synergistic formula combining therapeutic doses of herbs traditionally used in Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine to address imbalances that may contribute to or result from blood sugar imbalance – plus chromium, an essential nutrient for glucose and carbohydrate metabolism.
Specially formulated to complement dietary and lifestyle interventions aimed at helping healthy people maintain healthy blood sugar levels, and may be suitable for use with prescribed medicines after consultation with your healthcare professional


How it works:
Maintaining healthy blood sugar is an important focus of a healthy diet and lifestyle, because over time, poor glycaemic (blood sugar) control may be associated with an elevated risk of a wide range of health issues).

Fusion Health Blood Sugar contains an extract of the Ayurvedic herb Amla (also known as Indian gooseberry or Phyllanthus emblica), standardised for its content of ß-glucogallin. In clinical research, Amla has been shown to help healthy people maintain normal blood sugar levels, reduce LDL-cholesterol (‘bad’ cholesterol) and triglycerides, and increase HDL-cholesterol (‘good’ cholesterol). Amla may also help protect against free radical damage and inflammation, both of which may occur as a consequence of poor blood sugar balance.


The Ayurvedic herbs Gymnema (also known as Gurmar) and Karela (also known as Bitter Melon) are also present in this formula. Scientific studies suggest that Karela (and its major active constituents, such as charantin) may help to improve blood sugar balance via several different mechanisms. Gymnema is traditionally chewed to reduce the ability to sense sweet tastes, and both herbs have traditionally been used to reduce toxins in the body and aid digestion and the assimilation of nutrients.


From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), blood sugar issues are often associated with energetic imbalances such as deficient Heat and disordered Kidney Yinenergy. Huang Bai has traditionally been used to consolidate Kidney Yin and address deficient Heat. In Fusion® Health Blood Sugar, it is supported by Cinnamon, which has traditionally been used to help address blood sugar imbalance and may help to maintain glycaemic control in healthy individuals.

Chromium plays a critical role in glucose metabolism and blood sugar maintenance, and people with low levels of this vital trace mineral may be at increased risk of becoming overweight or developing blood sugar imbalance or high cholesterol or triglyceride levels.


Dosage recommendations:
Dosage (as per label)
Take 1 tablet two or three times daily, 30 minutes before meals.
Child under 12 yrs: Take as professionally advised.
