HemorAid: Clinical Research
Diosmin and hesperidin have been studied for their beneficial effects in alleviating acute and chronichemorrhoidal diseases.
These flavonoids seem to do this by inhibiting inflammatory prostaglandins, reducing free radicals, increasing venous tone and protecting blood vessel walls.
HemorAid: Clinical Research
The studies typically lasted 2 months for chronic hemorrhoids and one week for acute cases. They found that diosmin and hesperidin were able to reduce duration and intensity of acute attacks, improve signs and symptoms of discomfort and discharge, and reduce pain and redness/swelling of the affected areas.1,2,3,4
The micronized form of these flavonoids has been found to be better absorbed than other forms5,6 and, safety wise, diosmin is not considered to have any mutagenic activity, embryo toxicity, nor any significant effect on reproductive function.7

Do We Meet Our Recommended Nutrient Intakes Through Food Alone?
Yes and No
Health Canada 2012 findings: 50% of women and 70% of men eat more than they need to for energy and yet many adults still don’t meet the RDA for magnesium, calcium, vitamin A and D.1
Additionally, vegans are more at risk for calcium and vitamin B12 deficiency
Soil conditions and choice of crop varieties have been blamed for declines in some vitamins and minerals in our fruits and vegetables over the decades. Choice of crop varieties in conventional farming often reflects desire for higher yield for the farmer but not necessarily higher nutritional value.2

Ingredients and Dosage
EACH SOFTGEL CAPSULE CONTAINS: MEDICINAL INGREDIENTS:
Saw palmetto ……………………………………..320 mg
(standardized to contain 85-95% free fatty acids, esters & sterols)
Vitamin B6 …………………………………………...70 mg
Zinc …………………….……………………………... 16 mg
RECOMMENDED DOSE:
Adult males: Take 1 capsule once daily with a meal.
Clinical Research
Multiple clinical studies lasting several months up to a year have found Saw Palmetto standardized extracts help with symptoms of BPH:
Frequent urination, painful urination, hesitancy, urgency, and perineal heaviness.
It also decreases nocturia, improves peak and mean urinary flow, and lowers residual urine volume
Zinc is an important mineral for male fertility and sexual health and B6aids its absorption while also aiding digestion of fats, including the saw palmetto lipids.
Mechanism of Action
Saw Palmetto is thought to work at least in part by inhibiting an enzyme called 5 alpha reductase
This enzyme converts testosterone to a much more potent form called dihydrotestosterone (DHT)
DHT is implicated in both benign prostatic hyperplasia and alopecia (male pattern baldness)
2 studies to date have investigated Saw Palmetto extracts for alopecia with some promising results1,2
Cardio Support
Cardio Support
Supports cellular energy production, helps to maintain and support cardiovascular health, and functions as an antioxidant to reduce free radical damage
Features and Benefits
Contains Kaneka brand QH™, which represents more than 10 years of research including full clinical trials
Contains the active and most bioavailable form of CoQ10
3-8 times more bioavailable than CoQ10 300 mg of QH equivalent to up to 2400 mg of
CoQ10
Features and Benefits

Antioxidant – fat soluble antioxidant protection against damage to lipids, protein, and DNA
Supports sustained energy levels
Positively influences blood pressure and circulation
Forms of CoEnzyme Q10
3 states: ubiquinol, semiquinone, and ubiquinone
In the body, it switches back and forth between these states.
As it quenches free radicals, it donates electrons and moves from the ubiquinol(active, reduced, antioxidant) form to the (oxidized) ubiquinone form
Ubiquinol
Is the reduced, active, antioxidant form of ubiquinone (CoQ10)
90% of what is found in the blood is in ubiquinolform
Age, illness, and oxidative stress can all reduce our ability to convert CoQ10 to this active ubiquinolform
Ubiquinol is a fat soluble antioxidant that helps protect fatty portions of cells, tissue and blood vessels.
It’s also critical in making ATP (energy production cycle) in the cell
More bioavailable than CoQ10
Ubiquinol Declines with Age
Around age 40, we start losing Ubiquinol. This decline has been linked to accelerated aging and diminished energy levels.
Supplements can restore Ubiquinol to youthful levels
Ingredients and Dosage
Each capsule contains: Medicinal Ingredients
Ubiquinol ..…………………………………………….50 mg (reduced form of coenzyme Q10 from yeast)
Flaxseed Oil …………………………………………. 264 mg (provides 145mg ALA)

Adults: Take 1 capsule 2 times daily.
Ubiquinol Clinical Research
Ubiquinol led to a 24 to 50% increase in the heart’s ability to pump blood, a
reduction in the severity of the symptoms, and improved life expectancy for
congestive heart failure patients in a 2008 study
Kaneka QH™ (Ubiquinol) was also used in a 2013 athlete study.
2 groups took either 300mg ubiquinol or placebo daily for 6 weeks.
The ubiquinol group had significantly enhanced physical performance
measured as maximum power output when compared to placebo.
CoQ10 Clinical Research
CoQ10 had great results in the EU Q SYMBIO 2013 study:
420 patients with severe heart failure
CoQ10 nearly halved the chance of patients having a major cardiovascular event (like a heart attack) with 14% in the CoQ10 group and 25% in the placebo group having such an event. CoQ10 also halved the risk of dying with 9% in the CoQ10 group and 17% in the placebo group
