Chelated Magnesium (250mg) Review

Chelated Magnesium (250mg)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I recently read a book about Magnesium-taurate to reduce blood pressure...It was a little high priced for my budget, so I did a little research and found that magnesium is "chelated" (combined in a special process) to various amino acids. The chelation process makes it more absorbable, specially for old folks like me...So I ordered Chelated Magnesium from Country Life (for a lot less $), and am happy to report That after one month of taking this product three times a day, my blood pressure has dropped from 198/140 to 140/78, and is still dropping slowly. It took a couple weeks for it to start working, then I had a significant drop for about a week, and now am off the drug the doc had given me. I DO NOT recommend that anyone stop taking blood pressure meds, without your doc's knowledge. A good doctor will work with patients who want to try this alternative to drugs....Magnesium deficiency is common in this age of processed foods, and can be the cause of Hypertension...I take Calcium, potassium , and zinc with the magnesium for balance....Also, Country Life has fast courteous service!

Source Naturals L-Arginine 1000mg Review

Source Naturals L-Arginine 1000mg
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I had originally bought a 10-packet box of a workout energy drink mix to try, not really knowing much about what was in it. Well, it seemed to work -- every time I drank the stuff before working out, I could easily get an extra 30 minutes in before I had to stop. So I looked at the contents, and among other things it contained 2500mg L-Arginine. After finishing the box and doing some research on L-Arginine, I searched around for a cheaper alternative source (the drink mix was almost $3 per single packet). This is where I landed, and I bought one of these 2-packs to try out. Doing the math in my head, the amount equivalent to the drink mix is about 30-35 cents, or less if you sign up for the auto-ship!!
I now take 3000mg about 30 minutes before I start working out, and I can feel a significant difference. Recovery time is much faster -- no matter how hard I work, once I stop to take a break I feel like I'm ready to start again in no more than a minute or two. I'm also there a lot longer, as I said earlier.
The only thing I'm not crazy about is the tablet itself. Personally, I prefer the capsule style, like the Vitamin Shoppe capsules. I think I might stick with those from now on (plus, they're 1250mg each instead of 1000mg). But that's not to say that these aren't great too. It's just a matter of preference for me.

L-Arginine is a crystalline, free-form amino acid. It is an important factor in muscle metabolism and works to transport, store, and excrete nitrogen. It is a precursor for nitric oxide, which promotes increased circulation by relaxing blood vessels. It is also a precursor of guanidophosphate, phosphoarginine, and creatine, the high-energy compounds found in muscles.

Life Extension Super Ubiquinol Coq10 100 Mg Softgel, 60-Count Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I got the Gel CoQ10 because I heard it was good for kidney functions and my kidneys are near the point of dialysis and of course I like to stay away from that as long as possible. After taking the Gel CoQ10 for a few weeks my blood test got slightly better and when later I ran out and stopped taking it for a while my blood test got worst again so I went back on the Gel CoQ10 and my kidney results got slightly better again. This may be a coincidence and I don't think this is a cure for anything but my doctors at John Hopkins say its not hurting anything and I'm and my kidneys are hanging on longer than they should have so to keep doing what ever I'm doing. So I include Gel CoQ10 in my diet and exercise plan and if it just buys me a few months to enjoy the Summer and travel without dialysis or just buy me peace of mind it's a very small price to pay. For that reason it earned 5 stars in my book.

When it comes to choosing a CoQ10 supplement, the primary factor is how many swallowed milligrams actually make it into your bloodstream. Coenzyme Q10 is a notoriously difficult nutrient to absorb. A recent study showed that in seriously ill patients, conventional ubiquinone CoQ10 was hardly detectable in the blood, whereas the new ubiquinol resulted in significant blood level increases and subsequent clinical improvements.Scientific studies show that ubiquinol absorbs up to 8 times greater than ubiquinone and that higher levels of ubiquinol remain in the blood far longer than ubiquinone

This is a great product. As long as I take it with food it does not upset my stomach or cause digestive upset. It is a great help with relieving muscles spasms. The only issue is that the product is not labeled correctly here on Amazon.
The bottle I received reads: 1 Tablet contains 500 IU Vitamin D-3 (as cholecalciferol), 200 mg Calcium (amino acid chelate) and 100 mg Magnesium (amino acid chelate).
The product description says there is 250 mg Calcium, 125 mg Magnesium.... which would lead one to believe that you are getting a more potent formula than what is available at other sellers. Source Naturals does not advertise a 250/125 formula on the company website.
Bottom line, it's a great product, but I didn't recieve what was advertised.

Vitamin B-1 (thiamin) is essential for the metabolism of carbohydrates, some amino acids and alcohol. It is also necessary for the production of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, and for the detoxification of both alcohol and lactic acid (a by-product of strenuous exercise). Thiamin has important roles in the production of energy and ATP derived from reactions in the Krebs cycle. A high carbohydrate diet, strenuous physical exercise, or chronic alcohol consumption may increase the physiological need for vitamin B-1.

Source Naturals Hyaluronic Joint Complex Review

Source Naturals Hyaluronic Joint Complex
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The trick to making these work is to drink plenty of water throughout the day. (Hyaluronic acid works with water to create a natural gel-like substance that fills the joints and relieves pain.) Follow the directions on the bottle, drink plenty of water throughout the day and you should start to see some results within two weeks if you have joint pains from osteoarthritis.
I started looking into joint pains when I got tired of hearing all the horror stories from my extended family and their friends regarding knee pains. I finally found out that oral hyaluronic acid can be used to treat osteoarthritis pains and is more effective than the usual glucosamine-chondroitin combo.
I gave these to my mom who was skeptical of their effectiveness. They worked great and her doubt faded away quickly. The clicking sound her joints made when she walked went away. She no longer has stiffness and pain in the knee when waking up in the morning.
She also started recommending it to her friends at work. Most of whom are post-menopausal and have joint pains. Usually it's knee pain. They also are amazed so much of the pain goes away. Some of them have tried various expensive over-the-counter supplements that never gave them these kinds of results. Any pain left was treated with vitamin c, d3, magnesium citrate, and omega-3 fish oil capsules, which Amazon also sells.
Take a lower dose or consult your doctor if you have lymph edema, are taking blood pressure drugs, blood thinners, or taking anti-inflammatory medications (aspirin, Tylenol, Ibuprofen, Aleve, acetaminophen, etc.) before taking any hyaluronic acid.
Some misconceptions: Hyaluronic acid might not work on lower back pain or pain from rheumatoid arthritis since those are different conditions and are not related osteoarthritis. Research vitamin deficiency that leads to lower back pain (Methyl B-12, magnesium citrate, D3, comfrey ointment) and immune boosters for rheumatoid arthritis (D3, C, omega-3 fish oils capsules). Make sure you find info. based on the latest studies. Most of the data around the Net is based on out-dated studies with low-doses that are are usually ineffective.
For more info hyaluronic acid google: oral hyaluronic acid joints healing
UPDATE:
For lower back pain:
* Methyl B-12 Now Foods Brain B-12, 100 Lozenges / 1000mcg (Pack of 2)
* magnesium citrate or magnesium malate Source Naturals Magnesium Malate, 1250 mg, Tablets, 360 tablets
* Vitamin D3 at least 5,000 i.u. Life Extension Vitamin D3, 5000 IU (60 capsules)
* Res-Q Ointment (Comfrey Ointment) Res-Q Ointment .6 oz or Herb Pharm Comfrey Herb Pharm Comfrey 1 oz ( Twelve Pack)
For rheumatoid arthritis take immune boosters like:
* Vitamin D3 at least 5,000 i.u. Life Extension Vitamin D3, 5000 IU (60 capsules)
* Magnesium citrate or magnesium malate Source Naturals Magnesium Malate, 1250 mg, Tablets, 360 tablets
* Omega-3 fish oil at least 2,000 mg per day Carlson Laboratories - Super Omega-3, 130 softgels
Don't let the doctors give you doses that are too low:
I've been taking 5,000+ i.u. of vitamin D3 without any side effects for the past year. I get it by taking "30 Minutes of Sunshine". (Amazon does not sell it. It's at 30MinutesOfSunshine [dot] com) Others take 10,000 i.u. daily. So far, no one has died and no one has had any side effects. However, most of their rheumatoid hand pain goes away and they stop getting colds. In other words, they have great immune systems. This is why doctors want you to "be careful" with vitamins and take their dangerous drugs instead.
Doctors are still recommending 400 to 4,000 i.u. for Vit. D3. That amount is for children, not adults. It takes doctors a long time to catch up to the latest studies. They get away with it because all this info. is boring to read. The Vitamin D Council's website has up-to-date info. (VitaminDCouncil [dot] org)

Average Reviews:

My spouse and I want to take calcium supplements- not a lot because of recent reports suggesting they can cause health problems, but enough to make a dent in the daily requirement.
Some of my recent reading talked about the importance of taking calcium and magnesium in a 2:1 ratio together for better absorption. Many of the combined products available on Amazon fail to state the dosage, which is ridiculous, but when you don't know the dosages of each ingredient, it's hard to know if you're getting that proper ratio.
Even this product failed to give explicit info, but as it stated it had that elusive ratio, I bought it. Calcium is usually a cheap supplement and this combo was not, but to get that ratio...
So ok, we got the ratio, but you have to take 6 pills a day if you want the RDA. We're just not that devoted and won't be buying this again.
Amazon should require that supplements sold on their site must state dosage information for consumers.

Using this Mag Malate product at the rate of 6 tabs a day (2 pills 3x/day, with meals = about 800 mg.) has made a dramatic improvement in my husband's primary long-standing Raynaud's disease. He normally has ice-cold fingers and toes -- to the point of complete discoloration -- even in hot weather, and even more so when stressed or fatigued. (See the Wiki article for description and photos.) He has been taught & used relaxation/breathing techniques and can warm up his fingers that way, but it takes time and is not always convenient.
He is NOT much of a pill taker at all, but in just these two weeks of use, he has become committed to this product. His fingers are warm and a normal red color now.
This product does not cause loose stools (diarrhea) like mag citrate could at this dosage. We have now put it on auto-ship, which makes it less expensive. For two people, one bottle lasts one month (6 pills/day x 30 days = 180 pills; x two people = 360 pills.)
We'll report further if it helps with other chronic health conditions we are trying it for.

Ubiquinol has powerful antioxidant actions in target cells although ubiquinone (oxidized coenzyme q10) and ubiquinol (reduced coenzyme q10) are kept at a constant ratio within the body, the majority of the total coenzyme q10 pool is made up of ubiquinol. in fact, when ubiquinone is taken orally, much of it appears to be rapidly converted into ubiquinol. ubiquinol functions as a potent antioxidant in humans, including in low-density lipoproteins (ldls) where it protects them from oxidative damage. the coenzyme q10 molecule can be found in all membranes throughout cells. it appears to works in conjunction with both vitamin e and vitamin c to provide antioxidant actions throughout the body.coenzyme q10 supports mitochondria to enhance cellular energy productioncoenzyme q10, with its widespread distribution throughout the body, plays a crucial role in mitochondrial physiology as a critical member of the electron transport chain. this transport chain, which is part of cellular respiration, leads to the formation of adenosine triphosphate (atp), our body’s primary energy source. levels of this key nutrient may decline as a healthy person ages. animal studies have found that supplementation can restore normal levels in certain tissues, and human studies suggest that supplementing with this enzyme may have increased benefits when a person has depleted levels.coenzyme q10 supports healthy heart functioningconcentrations of coenzyme q10 are understandably high in the heart as these muscle cells require high levels of energy to constantly function optimally. a number of studies (both animal and human) strongly suggest that coenzyme q10 supplementation is supportive for healthy heart functioning and for maintaining cardiovascular system health.
